Privacy Policy

1. Who this policy is from

BOZ is not a registered company or commercial brand — it is an independent website. When this document says “the site” or “BOZ,” it means this website and the person who runs it. For privacy questions: support@boz.az.

2. Information collected

The following categories of information are collected to operate the site:

• Account data: email, username, hashed password, profile image (uploaded or selected avatar), and account status.
• Content: topics you create, options, votes, opinions, helpful ratings, and saved topics.
• Notifications: system and interaction notifications related to your account.
• Technical data: basic request information needed for security, reliability, and diagnostics.
• Device-stored data: session tokens and appearance (theme) preferences may be stored in your browser.

3. How information is used

Information is used only to:

• Create, authenticate, and manage your account.
• Provide topics, voting, opinions, profiles, and related features.
• Protect security, prevent abuse, and improve the site.
• Meet legal requirements when the law requires it.

4. Sharing

Personal information is not sold. Data may be processed only as needed to run the site, including:

• Infrastructure providers (hosting, database, file storage).
• Authorities when required by law.
• Public profile and content — your username, avatar, and public posts may be visible to other users.

5. Retention and security

Information is kept for as long as needed for the purposes above. Passwords are stored as hashes. Reasonable technical measures are used, but no internet transmission is completely secure.

6. Your rights

You may request access to, updates of, or deletion of your account data by emailing support@boz.az. Some information may be retained for a limited time for security or technical reasons.

7. Age requirement

BOZ accounts use email and other personal data. For that reason, accounts are only for people who are at least 16 years old. This is a site rule to avoid collecting children’s personal data. If it becomes known that information was collected from a younger user, that account may be deleted.

8. Changes

This policy may be updated from time to time. The current version is published on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
