auth.mss.io Privacy Policy
Plain language privacy policy under Alberta PIPA and federal PIPEDA. Last updated October 25, 2026.
01.Who we are
auth.mss.io (the "Service") is the sign-in service operated by Mario Stefano Suharja, doing business as MSS, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada ("MSS", "we", "us"). This policy explains what personal information the Service collects when you create an account or sign in, why, and what choices you have.
We handle personal information in line with Alberta's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and, where it applies, the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Our privacy contact is reachable at auth-contact.epilogue605@passinbox.com.
This policy covers the Service only. Each application you sign in to (a "Connected Application") handles the information it receives under its own privacy policy.
02.What we collect
We collect only what is needed to create your account, sign you in securely and keep the Service safe.
| Information | Where it comes from | Why we need it |
|---|---|---|
| Email address, username | You, at sign-up | Identify your account, sign-in, verification and security notices |
| Password | You, at sign-up | Authenticate you. Stored only as a salted one-way hash, never in readable form |
| Name, profile picture (optional) | You, or a social sign-in provider | Display in your profile and share with Connected Applications you approve |
| Social sign-in identifier and basic profile | Google, GitHub, Apple or similar, if you choose them | Link that account to yours |
| Phone number (if enabled) | You | One-time codes and account recovery |
| MFA data: authenticator secrets, passkey public keys, backup codes | You, when you set up MFA | Second-factor verification |
| IP address, browser and device details, timestamps | Your browser, automatically | Sign-in logs, fraud and abuse detection, troubleshooting |
| Record of which Connected Applications you have authorized | Generated by the Service | Show and manage your consents |
We do not collect payment information, and we do not ask for sensitive information such as health or financial data.
04.Storage, security & retention
Account data is stored on servers we operate in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
We protect it with reasonable safeguards, including encrypted connections (TLS), hashed passwords, multi-factor authentication options, network isolation of the database and administrative interfaces, restricted administrator access, and regular security updates. No system is perfectly secure. If a breach creates a real risk of significant harm to you, we will notify you and the relevant privacy commissioner as the law requires.
We do not currently keep backups of account data. Information that is deleted, whether at your request or through a system failure, cannot be recovered. We will update this policy before we start keeping backups.
Retention Schedule
| Information | How long |
|---|---|
| Account and profile data | While your account is active; deleted within 30 days of an account deletion request |
| Sign-in and security logs | Up to 90 days, then deleted |
| Information we must keep by law, or for an active dispute | As long as that requirement lasts |
05.Cookies
The Service uses only strictly necessary cookies: session cookies that keep you signed in, and security cookies that protect sign-in flows against forgery. Cloudflare may also set a cookie to filter malicious traffic. We do not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. Blocking these cookies will prevent sign-in from working.
06.Your rights
You can:
- Access the personal information we hold about you and learn how it has been used and shared.
- Correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete (most details can be edited in your account settings).
- Withdraw consent and delete your account, subject to legal limits. Deleting your account ends your ability to sign in to Connected Applications through the Service.
- Revoke a Connected Application's access at any time.
Send requests to auth-contact.epilogue605@passinbox.com. We may need to verify your identity first, and we will respond within 30 days, or tell you if we need an extension the law allows.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Alberta or the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
07.Children, changes & contact
The Service is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.
We may update this policy. We will change the "Last updated" date, and for material changes we will notify you by email or at sign-in before they take effect.
