Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 1, 2026 · Last updated: June 1, 2026

IGOTCHU LLC · privacy@igotchuapp.com

Short version: We collect only what we need to do your analysis and deliver it to you. We never sell your data. We never use your documents to train AI. We delete your uploaded documents 30 days after delivery. You can request deletion of all your data at any time.

Who We Are

IGOTCHU LLC operates the website igotchuapp.com and the IGOTCHU document analysis service. When this policy says “IGOTCHU,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” it refers to IGOTCHU LLC.

Privacy questions: privacy@igotchuapp.com

What We Collect and Why

We collect information in three ways:

Information you give us directly

  • Name and email address, required to deliver your analysis and communicate with you about your submission
  • Documents you submit, contracts, bills, agreements, or text descriptions you upload or paste, used only to complete your analysis
  • Intake information, your state, your goal, the actions you've taken, and the context you provide, used to tailor your analysis
  • Account information, if you create a subscriber account, your email and password (hashed, never stored in plain text)

Payment information

Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see, store, or have access to your credit card number, bank account, or full payment details. We receive only a payment confirmation and a Stripe customer ID. Stripe's privacy policy governs how Stripe handles your payment data.

Usage information

We collect basic analytics: page visits, submission timestamps, and which features you use. This information is used in aggregate to improve the service. We do not build individual behavioral profiles for advertising purposes.

How We Use Your Information

  • To complete and deliver your requested analysis
  • To send transactional emails: acknowledgment of receipt, delivery of your analysis, and a follow-up satisfaction check
  • To operate your subscriber dashboard and maintain your analysis history (subscribers only)
  • To process your payment and manage your subscription
  • To respond to your support requests
  • To improve our service, fix bugs, and develop new features, using aggregate and anonymized data only
  • To comply with legal obligations, enforce our Terms of Service, and protect our rights

We do not use your information for targeted advertising. We do not sell your information to data brokers. We do not share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.

Your Documents, Special Rules

Because the documents you submit may contain sensitive personal and financial information, we apply additional protections:

  • Purpose limitation: Your documents are used only to generate your analysis. Full stop.
  • No AI training: We do not use your submitted documents or analysis content to train, fine-tune, or improve any AI model.
  • No third-party sharing: We do not share your documents with any third party, except the AI provider (Anthropic) that processes them to generate your analysis, and cloud storage (Supabase) where they are temporarily stored. Both operate under strict data processing agreements.
  • Deletion: Uploaded documents are permanently deleted 30 days after your analysis is delivered. If you have a subscriber account, analysis text may be retained in your dashboard history until you delete it or close your account.
  • Encryption: Documents are encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest.

Data Retention

  • Uploaded documents: Deleted 30 days after analysis delivery

  • Email address and name: Retained while you have an active account or active subscription; deleted upon account closure and written deletion request
  • Payment records: Retained as required by tax and accounting law (typically 7 years), in the form of Stripe transaction records, not card data
  • Anonymous analytics: Retained indefinitely in aggregate form with no personal identifiers

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete personal information, the right to opt out of the sale of personal information (we do not sell personal information), and the right to non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights.

European Residents (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and equivalent laws. Our legal bases for processing your data are: performance of a contract (delivering the analysis you purchased), legitimate interest (improving and securing the service), and consent (any non-transactional communication, which you may withdraw at any time).

In addition to the rights listed above, you have the right to object to processing, the right to restrict processing, and the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

IGOTCHU is not directed at children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly.

Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including TLS encryption for all data in transit, encryption at rest for stored documents, access controls limiting which personnel can access user data, and regular security reviews. No security system is perfect. If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it to security@igotchuapp.com.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email (if you have an account) and by updating the date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
