Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 12, 2026

We care about your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how Iron & Metal collects, uses, and protects information when you use:

  • Our website (iron-metal.net)
  • Our mobile application (Iron & Metal App)

1. Information We Collect

We collect the minimum information necessary to operate our services. Depending on how you use the website and/or application, this may include:

  • Identity and Account Data (Website and/or App): Such as name, mobile number, country, and login details.
  • Preferences and Settings (Website and/or App): Such as language, currency, and saved or favorite items/sectors.
  • Technical Data (Website and/or App): Such as device type, operating system, IP address, and basic usage/diagnostic information.
  • Device Notification Token (App only): When notifications are enabled, a device-specific technical token (Push Token) may be used to send notifications.
  • Cookies (Website only): May be used to support website functions and improve user experience.

2. How We Use Information

We use information for the following purposes:

  • To operate website/app services and features.
  • To personalize the user experience according to preferences (Website and/or App).
  • To improve performance and address malfunctions and technical issues.
  • To send service-related updates and notifications (when enabled or needed).
  • To comply with legal requirements and protect platform security.

3. Permissions

The App may request certain permissions required to provide core features and improve user experience. Permissions are used only for the stated purpose and, where applicable, with user consent.

  • Internet: To connect to the service and enable features/content.
  • Notifications: To deliver alerts when enabled by the user.
  • If additional permissions are needed in the future (e.g., Camera, Location, or Storage), the reason will be explained in the App before requesting access.

We do not access sensitive data or use permissions beyond the declared purpose. You can manage permissions anytime from your device settings.

4. Notifications (Mobile App)

When notifications are enabled in the application, we use trusted third-party notification services such as Google Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) and Expo to send alerts, which may require a device-specific Push Token.

  • The notification token is used only for sending notifications.
  • This token is not used to personally identify the user.
  • You can turn off notifications at any time from your device settings.

5. Cookies and Advertising (Website)

Our website may use Cookies and similar technologies to improve user experience, measure traffic, and support features. The website also displays ads through Google AdSense, and Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this site and other sites.

  • You can control cookies from your browser settings, and disabling them may affect some website functions.

We may share a limited amount of data with trusted service providers for operational purposes such as:

  • Hosting and databases.
  • Notification services (such as Firebase and Expo).
  • Analytics and performance monitoring tools.
  • Advertising partners (Website only, such as Google AdSense).

We do not sell your personal data or share it for marketing purposes with third parties.

7. User Rights and Data Management

Depending on the service used, you may be able to:

  • Modify account data and preferences (in the App).
  • Delete application data from the device (in the App).
  • Request account deletion from within the App, and personal data will be deleted within a reasonable timeframe, except for what is legally required to be retained, if any.

Our services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

  • If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child provided personal data, please contact us.
  • If we become aware that we collected personal data from a child under the applicable age, we will delete it within a reasonable timeframe.
