Privacy Policy

What we collect

When you use Launchpadly, we collect information you provide directly: your email address, profile details, and startup submission data (name, tagline, description, website URL, and optional media). We also collect usage data such as upvotes, page views, and session cookies required for authentication.

How we use it

We use your data to operate the platform — displaying your startup, processing payments, sending magic-link emails, and improving the service. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Third parties

• Stripe — payment processing for paid launch tiers
• Resend — transactional email (magic links, notifications)
• Self-hosted PostgreSQL — all application data stored on our VPS

Cookies

We use session cookies for authentication. These are essential for the service to function and cannot be disabled while logged in.

Your rights

You may request deletion of your account and associated data by emailing us. We will process requests within 30 days.
