1. Who we are
DoseScout ("we", "us", "our") is a UK-based price comparison service for prescription medications sold by GPhC-regulated online pharmacies. Our website is dosescout.co.uk.

- Account data: Email address (provided when you sign up for price alerts via magic link).
- Preferences: Treatment categories you subscribe to, providers you have used, and alert frequency settings.
- Usage data: Pages visited, browser type, and IP address (collected automatically via server logs).
We do not collect payment information, health records, or prescription details.
3. How we use your data
- To send you magic link login emails.
- To send price alerts and new customer offer notifications you have opted into.
- To improve the accuracy and coverage of our price data.
We process your data under legitimate interest (providing the service you signed up for) and consent (alert notifications).
4. Data sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with:
- Resend (email delivery service) — to send transactional emails.
- Supabase (database hosting) — to store account and preference data.

When you click through to a pharmacy via our affiliate links, that pharmacy's own privacy policy applies.

Account data is retained until you delete your account. Login sessions expire after 30 days. Magic link tokens expire after 15 minutes.
