Your data on Launcholio

This policy explains what Launcholio collects when you audit a website, sign in, or submit a product, and how to ask us to correct or remove it.

Who operates this site

Launcholio operates this website. For privacy questions or requests, email [email protected] or use our contact page.

Information we collect

  • Audits: the URL you enter, public page data fetched from that website, resulting checks, Launch Ratings, recommendations, and the time of the audit. If you choose an AI review, the page text and desktop or mobile screenshots may also be sent to Agnes AI to prepare page-specific suggestions.
  • Accounts: your email address, name, profile image if supplied by a sign-in provider, and the account identifiers needed to keep you signed in.
  • AI access tokens: a one-way hash of each token, its name, permission, creation and expiry dates, and last-use time. The full token is shown only when created and is not stored in our database.
  • Listings: product names, descriptions, URLs, categories, tags, logos, launch dates, optional links, and screenshots you submit. Uploaded screenshots are converted to WebP and stored in the application database alongside the listing.
  • Paid plans and Badgebuddy packs: your plan or badge allowance, payment provider order identifier, subscription status, and paid period end where applicable. Waffo Pancake handles checkout and payment details; Launcholio does not store card numbers.
  • Activity and security: votes, badge settings, and limited technical information needed to operate and protect the service. Audit limits use keyed hashes of your IP address or account ID, alongside short-window or current-month counters; the counters reset or are cleaned up as their windows pass, and we do not store the raw IP in those counter keys. Hosting providers may also process request logs.

How we use the information

Reports are private: account reports are accessible only to their owner; guest reports require an HttpOnly browser cookie, valid for 30 days. Clearing that cookie or switching browsers removes guest access. Old guest reports without an ownership cookie cannot be opened by link. We use your data to run the audit you request, save and display reports, provide account features, review and publish listings, count votes, operate badges, respond to support requests, and prevent abuse. Where a legal basis is required, these activities support the service you request or our interest in running and protecting it. Launcholio does not use submitted data to train its own AI models. When you choose an AI review, the public page text and available screenshots are sent to Agnes AI to generate the requested analysis; do not run a review on a page containing information you do not want to share with that provider.

What other people can see

An approved listing, including its submitted screenshot, product links, tags, and community activity, is public. Pending or rejected listings are visible only to their submitter and site administrators.

A standalone audit report can be opened by anyone with its report link. A report attached to a product is restricted to its submitter and site administrators. Avoid entering secrets or personal information in a URL, description, or screenshot.

Cookies and analytics

We use essential sign-in and security cookies to keep accounts working. Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity are not currently configured, so their tracking scripts do not load. If we activate optional analytics, we will update this policy and provide any controls required where you live before using them.

Service providers and website requests

Launcholio uses Supabase PostgreSQL to store application data and runs on managed cloud hosting. If you choose Google sign-in, Google processes that sign-in; email sign-in is available only when an email provider is configured. If you buy a paid plan or a Badgebuddy badge allowance, Waffo Pancake processes checkout and payment information and sends us the payment or subscription status needed to apply your account entitlement. When you request an audit, our server contacts the public website you enter, so that website may see the request. AI reviews use Microlink to capture available public-page screenshots and Agnes AI to analyze the page text and screenshots. These providers process the request under their own service terms and privacy notices. Providers may process information outside your country.

Retention, correction, and deletion

Accounts, listings, and reports do not currently have an automatic expiry date. You can edit or delete your own product from the dashboard; deleting it also removes its uploaded screenshot and linked audit reports from our application database. To ask for access to, correction of, or deletion of other account or report information, email [email protected]. We may need to verify that you control the relevant account or URL. Provider backups and operational logs can remain for a limited time under the providers' retention practices.

Changes to this policy

We will update this page and its effective date when our data practices change. Material changes will be communicated through the site or another appropriate channel before they take effect when required by applicable law.
