Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2026
What we collect
- Your Google email, name, and avatar (for login).
- URLs you save, plus fetched public metadata (title, description, thumbnail).
- AI-generated categories and tags.
- Vector embeddings of link titles + descriptions (used only for search on your account).
- Billing metadata via Stripe if you subscribe — we never see your card details.
How we use it
To render your timeline, categorise your links, power search, and process subscription billing. We do not sell or share your data with third parties for advertising.
Sub-processors
- Google (authentication).
- Anthropic Claude, via Emergent LLM proxy (AI categorisation).
- OpenAI (semantic search embeddings).
- Stripe (payments).
- MongoDB Atlas (storage, US region).
Your rights
You can export your data at any time from the timeline (Markdown or JSON). Email us to delete your account and everything we hold about you — we honour the request within 30 days.
Cookies
One session cookie for authentication, plus localStorage for view preferences (category filter, selection, palette recents). We don't use tracking or advertising cookies.
