Privacy Policy

What we collect, why, how we store it, and your rights.

Last updated: June 2026

TL;DR

  • Anonymous verification is not linked to any identity and requires no signup.
  • For registered accounts we store the minimum: email and verification history.
  • Data is hosted on servers in Europe.
  • We do not sell your data and do not run advertising trackers.

What we collect

  • Anonymous verification: the claim text you paste and a technical device marker used only to enforce the one-free-verification limit. This does not identify you personally.
  • Registered account: email, interface locale, your verifications, and saved feeds. Payments are processed by Paddle as merchant of record — we only receive subscription metadata.
  • Technical logs: IP, user agent, and request time for security and troubleshooting. Retention: 30 days.

Why we collect it

  • To run your verification and show you the result.
  • To save your history and auto-re-verify saved feeds.
  • To enforce tier limits and prevent abuse.
  • To detect failures and improve the AI analysis quality.

Third parties

  • Paddle — merchant of record and payment processor (for paid tiers).
  • AI model providers (for claim analysis). Your claim text is sent only to generate the response; it is not used for their training.
  • EU-based infrastructure provider (hosting, databases, queues).
  • We do not use ad networks and do not embed behavioural trackers.

Retention

  • Anonymous verifications: claim text and result are kept up to 30 days for diagnostics, then deleted.
  • History for registered accounts is kept while the account exists. You can delete your account and associated data at any time.
  • Technical logs — 30 days.

Your rights

  • Right of access, correction, and deletion of your data (GDPR).
  • Right to export your verification history in a machine-readable format.
  • Right to withdraw consent and close your account at any time.
  • To exercise these rights, write to the address below.
