- Maintain, troubleshoot, test, improve, and develop the Service.
- Monitor security, prevent abuse, investigate incidents, and enforce access controls.

4. How Information May Be Shared
We may disclose information:

- When you direct us to export, share, transmit, or otherwise provide information to another person or system.

- In connection with a merger, financing, acquisition, sale of assets, reorganization, or similar business transaction, subject to applicable law.
5. Third-Party Services
DirectionalPlan uses third-party providers to operate portions of the Service. Depending on the feature, these may include providers for hosting, transactional email, domain/email services, bot protection, analytics, mapping, infrastructure, and other technical functions.
Current examples include Render for hosting, Resend for transactional email, Namecheap for domain/email services, Cloudflare Turnstile for bot protection, and Google Analytics for website analytics. These providers may process limited information as necessary to provide their services and under their own privacy terms.
6. Engineering and Customer Data
Your engineering data may contain commercially sensitive or proprietary information. DirectionalPlan uses that information to provide the features you request and to operate, maintain, secure, and support the Service.
You are responsible for determining whether you have authority to upload or process company, client, partner, well, survey, or other third-party data through the Service.
7. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and administrative safeguards designed to protect account and service data. However, no online service, storage system, or transmission method can guarantee absolute security.
8. Data Retention
We retain account, workspace, engineering, support, security, and operational information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide and secure the Service, maintain records, troubleshoot issues, comply with legal obligations, and resolve disputes.
Retention periods may vary based on the type of information, whether an account remains active, backup practices, legal requirements, and operational needs.
9. Your Choices and Requests
You may contact us to request help with your account, ask privacy questions, correct account information, or request deletion of your account or certain information. Some records may need to be retained when required by law or reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, backup integrity, or legitimate business records.
10. Children
The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children under 13.
11. Third-Party Links and Interoperability
The Service may link to or interoperate with third-party products and services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Where required by law or appropriate because of a material change, we may provide additional notice.
