Privacy Policy

Last updated: 4 April 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how the Naverny Borshchu team collects, uses, stores and protects your personal information when you use the website navernyborshchu.com and the Naverny Borshchu mobile app.

1. What information we collect

Information you provide voluntarily:

• Name or nickname
• Contact details (email)
• Borshch reviews, comments, photos
• Location (only with your consent)

Information collected automatically:

• IP address, device and browser type
• Site usage data (sessions, navigation, page views)
• Cookies that make the site easier to use

2. How we use your information

• To improve the website and the app
• To build the borshch map and the venue ratings
• To send updates and event invitations (only with your consent)
• For analytics in anonymized form
• To reply to you and provide support

3. Data storage and protection

• We use secure servers with encryption
• We limit access to personal data to authorized team members only
• We monitor security on a regular basis

4. Sharing data with third parties

We do not sell or pass your personal data to third parties without your consent. Data may be shared only in anonymized form for analytics, or in the cases required by the law of Ukraine.

5. Your rights

Under the Law of Ukraine “On Personal Data Protection” you have the right to:

• view, correct or delete your personal data;
• withdraw your consent to the processing of personal data;
• file a complaint with the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights.

6. Cookies

We use cookies to remember your preferences, for analytics and for personalization. You can turn cookies off in your browser settings — the core features of the site will keep working.

We use PostHog for analytics — the data is stored on servers inside the European Union. It counts page views and on-site actions, and may record anonymised sessions in which the contents of input fields are hidden. We use this only to see what is working badly in the service. To opt out, turn on the “Do Not Track” signal in your browser — we respect it and then collect nothing.

7. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy. The current version is always available at navernyborshchu.com/en/privacy-policy.html. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept the updated Policy.
