3. Third-Party Service Providers
We share data only with the third-party processors necessary to operate the Service. Each processor is bound by their own privacy and security commitments:

Every SMS we send includes an opt-out instruction. Customers who reply STOP are immediately unsubscribed and will not receive further messages from your account. Customers may also opt out at any time via https://reviewspark.online/api/unsubscribe.
5. Cookies and Local Storage
We use the following browser storage mechanisms:
- Authentication cookies — Supabase sets a session cookie to keep you signed in. This cookie is strictly necessary for the Service to function.
- localStorage (theme) — We store your light/dark mode preference locally in your browser. No personal data is involved.
