-## ✅ Priority 3: Profile Privacy Enforcement (VERIFIED)
+## ✅ Priority 3: Profile Privacy Enforcement (COMPLETED)
 
-### Status: IMPLEMENTED & WORKING
+### Status: IMPLEMENTED & SIMPLIFIED
 
-**Verified**:
-- ✅ `get_filtered_profile()` function exists in database
-- ✅ RLS policies correctly filter profile data based on privacy settings
-- ✅ Privacy levels: public, private
-- ✅ Banned/deactivated users hidden from non-moderators
-- ✅ Field-level privacy via `can_view_profile_field()` function
+**Changes Made**:
+- ✅ Updated `useProfile()` hook to use `get_filtered_profile()` RPC instead of direct table query
+- ✅ Removed `useProfileFieldAccess` hook (no longer needed - privacy handled at database layer)
+- ✅ Simplified `LocationDisplay` component (removed redundant privacy checks)
+- ✅ Simplified `PersonalLocationDisplay` component (removed redundant privacy checks)
+- ✅ Removed `canViewField()` checks from Profile page (trust filtered data from RPC)
 
-**No Changes Needed**: The privacy system is already properly implemented.
+**Architecture**:
+- Privacy enforcement now happens exclusively at the database layer via `get_filtered_profile()`
+- Frontend components trust that if a field is present in the response, it's viewable
+- Single source of truth for privacy logic (no duplication between frontend and backend)
+
+**Security Benefits**:
+- Field-level privacy enforced by security definer function
+- No possibility of frontend bypassing privacy checks
+- Better performance (1 RPC call instead of 8+ field checks)
+- Simpler, more maintainable code
+
+**Files Modified**:
+- `src/hooks/useProfile.tsx`
+- `src/pages/Profile.tsx`
+- `src/components/profile/LocationDisplay.tsx`
+- `src/components/profile/PersonalLocationDisplay.tsx`

 **Priority**: HIGH - Should be enabled immediately.
 
+### 2. Extensions in Public Schema (LOW RISK)
+
+**Issue**: Supabase linter warns that extensions are in the `public` schema.
+
+**Action**: No action required - this is a default Supabase configuration. Moving extensions could break functionality.
+
+**Why Safe**: Supabase manages these extensions, and they don't pose a security risk in this context.
