HD Deal Scanner ("we", "us", "our") operates the website at deals.tomstein.org. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information in connection with our deal-scanning and notification service.
We store a username and a securely hashed password for authentication. We do not collect email addresses through the web interface.
If you opt into SMS notifications, we store your phone number solely to deliver deal alerts via Twilio's messaging service.
We log scan history (timestamps, store IDs, deal counts) to provide the scan log feature. Standard web server access logs (IP address, user agent, request path) are retained for security and operational purposes.
Product information (item IDs, prices, descriptions) is collected from publicly available Home Depot product listings and stored locally to track deals over time.
SMS notifications are delivered through Twilio. Your phone number is transmitted to Twilio for message delivery. Twilio's privacy policy is available at twilio.com/legal/privacy.
Product and pricing data is retrieved from Home Depot's publicly available website. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by The Home Depot, Inc.
The web interface loads Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, and Google Fonts from third-party CDNs. These services may collect standard web analytics data (IP address, browser type) according to their respective privacy policies.
All data is stored locally on our server in an encrypted-at-rest SQLite database. Passwords are hashed using bcrypt. Sessions are protected with HttpOnly, Secure, and SameSite cookie flags. All traffic is encrypted via TLS (HTTPS).
Deal records are retained indefinitely to provide historical price tracking. Scan logs are retained indefinitely. You may request deletion of your data by contacting us.
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time. To opt out of SMS notifications, contact us to have your phone number removed.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
