Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 27, 2026
TL;DR: We do not sell your data. Your startup ideas stay private. We use minimal tracking, and you can request deletion of your data.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly, including startup ideas, product descriptions, and target audience details entered into our analysis engines. We also collect session identifiers, IP addresses (hashed for privacy), and usage analytics to improve our service.
If you create an account, we collect your email address and any profile information you voluntarily provide.
2. How We Use Your Information
Your input data is used solely to generate AI-powered analysis results using our intelligence engines. We do not sell, rent, or share your startup ideas with third parties.
Analysis inputs are processed by Anthropic's Claude API under their data processing agreement. We retain anonymized usage logs for product improvement and security monitoring.
3. Data Retention
Analysis results are stored in your session for the duration of your browser session. If you have an account, saved analyses are retained until you delete them or close your account.
IP addresses are stored in hashed form for rate limiting and abuse prevention. Raw IP data is never stored.
4. Third-Party Services
StartupX AI uses the following third-party services:
* Anthropic Claude API - for AI analysis and content generation
* Supabase - for authentication and database storage
* Vercel - for hosting and edge infrastructure
* Razorpay - for payment processing
We do not use advertising networks, retargeting pixels, or invasive tracking technologies.
5. Cookies and Tracking
We use minimal, necessary cookies only:
* Session cookies to maintain your authenticated session
* Security cookies to help prevent abuse
* Preference cookies if you customize display settings
We do not use advertising cookies or retargeting pixels.
6. Security
We take security seriously. Measures include:
* Data in transit encrypted with TLS
* API keys stored as server-side environment variables only
* Input validation on form submissions
* Rate limiting to prevent abuse
* IP addresses stored as one-way hashes only
7. Your Rights
