Privacy Policy
Effective date: April 21, 2026
This policy explains what data IdeaFast (ideafast.pro) collects, why, and how you can control it.
1. Data we collect
- Account data: name, email, profile image, and authentication provider ID (Google) — captured when you sign up.
- Usage data: interests you select, problem statements, ideas generated, validations run, and credit transactions.
- Payment data: we do not store card numbers. Our payment processor (DodoPayments) handles card data; we store the payment ID, amount, currency, status, and the name/email on file.
- Technical data: IP address and user-agent are logged for security and debugging by our auth provider and hosting provider.
2. How we use it
- To operate the service (generate ideas, run validations, grant credits)
- To process payments and prevent fraud
- To send transactional emails (receipts, account notices)
- To improve the product — in aggregate and de-identified form
- To comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your content to train public AI models.
3. Third-party processors
We share data only with services needed to run IdeaFast:
- DodoPayments — payment processing (merchant of record)
- Neon / Postgres — database hosting
- Vercel — application hosting
- Google — OAuth sign-in
- OpenAI / Anthropic — large language models that generate ideas and validations. Prompts may include interest names and problem text you submit, but not account credentials.
- Resend — transactional email
Each processor has its own privacy policy and security controls.
4. Data retention
We keep account and payment records for as long as your account is active, plus whatever is required by law for accounting (typically 7 years for payment records). Generated ideas and validations are kept until you delete them or your account.
5. Your rights
Depending on where you live (GDPR, CCPA, and similar laws), you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, email shubhambhatt9412@gmail.com from the address on your account. We'll respond within 30 days.
6. Cookies
We use a small number of essential cookies for authentication (session tokens) and site functionality. We do not use advertising trackers.
7. Security
We use HTTPS across the site, industry-standard authentication (Better Auth), and scoped database access. No online service is 100% secure; we encourage strong, unique passwords for any linked accounts.
8. Children
The service is not directed at children under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from them.
9. Changes
We may update this policy. Material changes will be announced via the site or email. The "Effective date" above always reflects the current version.
