Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 23, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Steven Lawrence LLC ("we," "us," "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use OZ at podluxe.org (the "Service"). OZ is an entertainment-only astrology and numerology platform powered by AI. We aim to keep things simple: collect what we need, protect it, and let you control it.

1. Information We Collect

When you use OZ, we collect:

Account info: name, email address, and password (stored as a secure hash — never plain text)
Reading content: your questions, Oz's responses, and any uploaded photos, stored in your reading history
Subscription info: your plan status (free / pro / premium) and billing records maintained by our payment provider
Usage data: basic technical information like browser type, general location, timestamps, and interaction data to keep the Service working and secure
Cookies & local storage: small pieces of data used to keep you signed in and remember your preferences (light/dark mode, sidebar state)

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

Provide the Service, including generating AI readings through our AI partner
Maintain your account and your reading history
Process subscriptions and payments
Communicate with you about your account, important updates, and support inquiries
Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and security issues
Improve the Service and develop new features
Comply with legal obligations

3. Third-Party Services

To run OZ, we rely on a small number of trusted third-party services. These providers process data strictly on our behalf:

AI provider (Anthropic): your messages and photos are sent to Anthropic's API to generate Oz's responses. Anthropic does not use this data to train its models
Payment processor: billing and subscription management is handled by a third-party payment provider; we do not store your full card details
Hosting & infrastructure: our web hosting and email providers store and transmit data as part of operating the Service

Each provider has its own privacy practices and security standards.

4. Photo Handling

If you upload a photo to OZ, it is sent to our AI provider to generate a response and stored within your reading history. Photos are tied to your account and visible only to you. You may delete a reading at any time; deleted readings are removed from your view immediately and purged from our systems on a regular schedule.

Never upload photos of other people without their consent, and never upload photos of minors.

5. How We Protect Your Information

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS), secure password hashing, access controls, and regular security reviews. No system is 100% secure, but we take protecting your data seriously.

6. Your Choices & Rights

You have the right to:

Access the information we hold about you
Correct inaccurate information
Delete your account and associated data
Export your reading history in a portable format
Opt out of non-essential communications

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@lawrenceenterprise.nyc. Depending on your jurisdiction (e.g., California, EU), additional rights may apply.

7. Data Retention

We keep your account information as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal information from our active systems within a reasonable time, though some records may be retained where required by law, for tax/accounting, or to resolve disputes.

8. Children's Privacy

OZ is intended for adults aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, contact us at support@lawrenceenterprise.nyc and we will promptly delete it.

9. Cookies & Tracking

OZ uses essential cookies and browser storage to keep you signed in and remember your preferences. We do not use advertising trackers or sell your data to advertisers. You can clear cookies through your browser settings, but doing so may affect how the Service works.

10. International Users

OZ is operated from the United States. If you use the Service from outside the U.S., your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the U.S. or other countries where our service providers operate.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or through the Service. The "effective date" above indicates when the current version took effect.
