Privacy Settings: Control Your Data

Data Sharing
Control what data Firefly Grove can use. Analytics (anonymized usage), AI training (opt-out available), marketing emails, feature suggestions.
Visibility Defaults
Set default visibility for new memories. Private, family-only, or shared. Prevents accidental oversharing. Override per memory.
