Welcome to PearlScout ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website and use our service.

2. Information We Collect

To provide our reporting service, we collect the following limited information:

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect strictly to provide the PearlScout service:

  • To analyze your aggregated website traffic and send you weekly summary emails.

  • To communicate with you regarding service updates or technical issues.

  • Stripe: For secure payment processing.
  • Supabase: For secure database hosting and user authentication.
  • Resend: For dispatching our weekly report emails.

5. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your account information and aggregated weekly snapshots only for as long as you maintain an active account. If you choose to cancel your subscription and delete your account, we will remove your OAuth connection and delete your historical data from our active databases.
