Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2026
1. Who we are
2. What we collect
Depending on how you use Showdeck, we may collect:
- Account details — email, name, password (stored by Firebase Auth), and optional Google sign-in profile info.
- Workspace & catalog content — organization profile, product photos, names, prices, descriptions, tags, and related catalog/deck data you create.
- Optional business profile — account type, purpose, and country if you provide them during onboarding or in settings.
- Billing records — plan, subscription status, and transaction references from Paddle (we do not store your full card number).
- Usage & operations — login sessions, feature usage needed to run quotas, error logs, and (when enabled) server-side product analytics events.
- Public reports — privacy-minimised abuse or issue reports you or visitors submit.
- Buyer interest / lead requests — when a visitor uses Send to business on a public catalog or deck, we store the items they selected plus any name, phone, email, or note they provide, and may email that request to the workspace (Owner/Admin see full contact detail; other alert recipients may get a redacted summary).
3. How we use it
4. AI processing
- Anthropic — field extraction from product photos.
- PhotoRoom — photo cleanup and stylized stills.
Those providers process data under their terms for the request. Do not upload content you are not allowed to share with these processors.
5. Who we share with (service providers)
- Google Firebase / Google Cloud — auth, database, and file storage.
- Vercel — website and API hosting, plus cookieless Web Analytics (page views / referrers; not an ad network).
- Paddle — payments and subscriptions (Merchant of Record).
- Resend — transactional email.
- Anthropic & PhotoRoom — AI features you trigger.
- Sentry — error monitoring (when configured; we avoid unnecessary personal data in error reports).
- Amplitude — product analytics from our servers (pseudonymous where practical; no ad network).
We may also disclose information if required by law, or to protect Showdeck, our users, or the public from harm or fraud.
6. Where data lives
7. Cookies & similar tech
- Essential session cookie — keeps you signed in to the app.
- Attribution cookie (sd_ref) — if you arrive via a referral link, we may remember that code briefly so we can credit the referral when you create a workspace.
We do not use advertising cookies or sell data to ad networks. Vercel Web Analytics is cookieless (page views and referrers only). If we add client-side analytics that need consent, we will update this policy and show a consent choice.
8. Public storefronts
9. Retention
10. Your rights
To make a request, email info@novech.io. We will verify the request and respond within 30 days (or sooner if local law requires). Workspace owners can also manage much of their content directly in the app.
