1. Overview
Indexed ("we", "us", or "our") operates indexed.vc. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you use our Service. By using the Service, you consent to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
Account information: When you register, we collect your email address and, if you use Google OAuth, your name and profile information provided by Google.
Usage data: We track your usage of the Service — including searches performed, company profiles viewed, list builder queries, and exports made — to enforce tier limits and improve the product.
Payment information: Payments are processed by Stripe. We store only a Stripe customer ID and subscription status; we do not store your full credit card number or banking details.
Device and log data: We automatically collect server log data including IP addresses, browser type and version, operating system, device type, referring URLs, pages visited, and timestamps. Your IP address may be used to derive approximate geographic location (city/country level).

Each third-party service operates under its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review their policies to understand how they handle data.

You can disable non-essential cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect Service functionality. We do not use cookies for advertising purposes.
6. Data Retention
We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. Usage logs are retained for up to 24 months. Payment records are retained as required by applicable tax and financial reporting laws.
After account deletion, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law. We may retain anonymized, aggregate data indefinitely for analytics and product improvement purposes.

10. International Data Transfers
Your data is processed and stored in the United States through our infrastructure providers (Vercel, Supabase, Stripe). If you access the Service from outside the United States, your data will be transferred to and processed in the US. We rely on our service providers' data protection frameworks and standard contractual clauses to ensure adequate protection of transferred data.
11. Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting. There is currently no industry standard for how companies should respond to DNT signals. We do not currently alter our data collection practices in response to DNT signals, but we do not engage in cross-site tracking or targeted advertising.
12. Security
We use industry-standard security practices including encrypted data transmission (TLS), database row-level security, access controls, and secure authentication flows. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security but take reasonable measures to protect your data.
13. Children
The Service is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with their data, contact us and we will promptly delete it.
14. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy periodically. We will notify users of significant changes via email or in-app notice at least fifteen (15) days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
