Who we are
The Village is an app that helps pregnant women and new mothers organise practical help from family and friends. It is run by its founder, Mamta, in the European Union.
What we collect
Your email address and, if you sign in with Google or Apple, your name and profile photo from that account. What you add yourself: your name, photo, city, country and how you like to help. Later in the beta: the villages you create or join, wishes, offers and guest stays, and optional health and allergy notes, which are saved only after you give explicit consent.
Why we collect it
Only to run The Village: to sign you in, show your village who is helping, and organise help. We never sell your data and we do not use it for advertising.
Who can see it
Your profile is visible only to you and to members of the villages you belong to. Health and allergy notes are visible only to members of that village. Busy times from a connected calendar are never shown to anyone.
Where it is stored
Our database and file storage are hosted by Supabase in Frankfurt, Germany. The website is hosted by Vercel in the EU. Profile photos are stored privately.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you can see, correct, export and delete your data at any time. You can edit your profile in the app. Data export and account deletion will be available in the app before public launch; until then, ask the village keeper or contact us through the app.
