Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 30, 2026

1. Information We Collect

We collect Account information (email, name) through Clerk authentication, Website Setup data (domains, business and audience facts, and search markets), and generated Articles and images. We do not collect payment information directly; Polar handles billing.

2. How We Use Information

We use your data to provide the Service: generating articles, publishing to your connected sites, and sending transactional emails. We do not sell or rent your data to third parties.

3. Data Storage

Your data is stored on Neon PostgreSQL databases with encryption at rest. Deleting an Account removes its associated Brands, reports, evidence, content, connected credentials and billing records from our application database. We retain a hashed authentication identity and deletion timestamp to prevent delayed events from recreating a deleted Account. A hashed payment identity is retained for up to 12 months to prevent repeated trials. These records do not contain your email, name or payment details. Anonymous provider cost measurements remain after Account references are removed. A subscription identifier and cancellation request time may remain until the billing provider confirms cancellation.

4. Third-Party Services

We use Clerk for authentication, Polar for billing, Trigger.dev for background jobs, and OpenRouter for AI model access. Each has their own privacy policy and security practices.

5. Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication (Clerk) and analytics (PostHog). We do not use third-party advertising cookies.

6. Your Rights

You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting ray@inkieai.com. We will process deletion requests within 30 days.

7. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including HTTPS, encrypted database connections, and secure API key storage. However, no system is 100% secure.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy periodically. We will notify users of significant changes via email.
