What we collect

• Waitlist signups: charity name, your name, your role, your email, and one sentence on where you currently look for funders.
• Tool queries: charity name, email, charity description, region, ask amount, and any optional context you provide.
• Email replies: anything you write back to us. We keep the thread.
• Server logs: standard request metadata (IP, user agent, timestamp) retained for 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

Why we collect it (APP 5)

• To run your query against the public ACNC dataset and return matched funders.
• To email you when Pro is ready to test, and to send launch news only.
• To shape what gets built. Your description of where you currently look for funders is direct product input.
• We do not retarget you with ads. We do not place advertising pixels. We do not sell your record. We do not use your data to train AI models.

Who sees it

Joshua, the founder. Sub-processors that strictly handle the data on our behalf:

• Anthropic (Claude API). Your charity description is sent to Claude for the matching step. Anthropic's API for paid tier customers does not train on customer data by default. See Anthropic's commercial terms.
• Resend. Transactional email delivery, US-based. Processes your email address and the contents of any email we send you.
• Supabase. Database hosting, AU region. Processes the full waitlist and tool-query record.
• Cloudflare. CDN and DNS. Sees IP address and request metadata for caching and security only.

We do not share your record with any third party for marketing, sale, or partnership purposes.

How long we keep it

Waitlist records: until you ask us to delete or for 24 months from your last contact, whichever is shorter. Tool queries: 12 months, then anonymised (description retained, identifying fields stripped) for product analytics. Server logs: 30 days. Email threads: while operationally relevant, then archived.
