Privacy policy

We do not sell personal data. We collect only what is needed to operate the app and improve results. Search text and excerpts from public Reddit discussions are sent to OpenAI to generate recommendations. Product names are sent to shopping providers when loading offers.

We store search queries and generated results for up to 30 days. Shared result links are accessible to anyone with the link. Click events include product, retailer destination, timestamp and a keyed IP identifier for abuse prevention. Application logs omit raw IP addresses, query text and user agents. Hosting providers may process connection data under their own policies.

Data retention

• Summaries and individual click events expire after 30 days through a scheduled retention job.

• Recent searches and your marketplace preference are stored on your device. Clear recent searches from the home page.

You can request deletion of stored data associated with a specific query by contacting the maintainers with relevant details.
