Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 26, 2026 · Last updated: July 22, 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Ghostbar ("we", "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website, API, and desktop application. By using the Service, you consent to the practices described here.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of information:

  • Account data: email address, authentication tokens, device identifiers, subscription and billing status.
  • Usage data: token counts, model names, request types, timestamps, and estimated costs for cloud features.
  • Payment data: processed by Razorpay; we store order IDs and payment status, not full card numbers.
  • Desktop local data: settings, session notes, job description, and CV text stay on your device unless you use Ghostbar Cloud.

3. How We Use Information

We use your data to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service.
  • Enforce usage quotas and prevent abuse.
  • Process payments and manage subscriptions.
  • Respond to support requests and comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell personal information to third parties.

4. Data Sent to AI Providers

When you use Ghostbar Cloud:

  • Your questions and context (accessibility text, optional screenshots, session notes) are transmitted to OpenAI and/or Anthropic based on your model selection.
  • These providers process data under their own terms and privacy policies.
  • Context is collected only when you initiate an ask — not continuously in the background.

5. Data Storage and Security

  • Server data is stored in secured infrastructure with access controls.
  • Desktop session context remains local unless you use cloud mode.
  • We implement reasonable technical measures but cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Retention

  • Account and billing records are retained while your account is active and as required for tax and legal compliance.
  • Usage ledger entries may be retained for analytics and dispute resolution.
  • You may request account deletion by contacting support@ghostbar.app.

7. Cookies and Local Storage

  • The website uses local storage for authentication tokens and device IDs.
  • We do not use third-party advertising trackers.

8. Your Rights

  • Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export personal data.
  • Contact support@ghostbar.app to exercise these rights.
  • Indian users may have additional rights under applicable data protection regulations.

9. Children

The Service is not intended for users under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

10. International Transfers

Data may be processed in India and in countries where our AI subprocessors operate (including the United States). By using cloud features, you consent to such transfers.

11. Changes

We may update this policy periodically. Material changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
