Privacy notice

• Email address and account timestamps when you request a sign-in link.
• Hashed login and session tokens; usable tokens remain in your email or browser.
• Companies you follow and the information needed to send and stop notifications.
• A verified work-email domain when you claim a relationship to a company.
• IP address, user agent and operational logs used to rate-limit abuse and secure access.
• Messages and evidence you voluntarily send to the contact address.

Account information is used to authenticate readers, maintain sessions, deliver company notifications, process unsubscribe requests and record verified company relationships. Operational data is used to detect abuse, diagnose failures and measure site performance. It is not used to let a company representative erase or rewrite public records.

Hosting, database, object-storage and email providers process data as needed to operate the service. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, to protect the service or its users, or during a legitimate transfer of the project. Shuttingdown does not sell personal information.

Expired sign-in tokens are designed to be deleted, sessions expire or can be revoked, and company watches can be removed through the site or an unsubscribe link. Other records are retained only as long as needed for the purpose described, security, auditability and applicable legal obligations.

To ask about personal information, request deletion where applicable, or report a privacy concern, email contact@shuttingdown.com. Do not include passwords, sign-in links or sensitive identification in the message.

Company, case and professional information displayed on Shuttingdown generally comes from public court, regulatory or government records. A privacy request concerning a public record is evaluated against the source, the public interest, accuracy and applicable law; it is not treated as an automatic request to alter the underlying history.
