Scope of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to Websterly and the product surfaces made available through websterly.dev and related subdomains. It covers information processed when you browse the site, create an account, use project-building features, publish content, connect third-party services, or purchase a subscription.

If you publish a site or app using Websterly, this Policy describes Websterly's handling of your information as our user. You may separately need your own privacy policy for the visitors, customers, and end users of anything you publish through Websterly.

02

Information we collect

The information Websterly processes depends on how you use the service. We collect information directly from you, automatically from your device and browser, and from third parties you connect or purchase through.

  • Account and profile data such as name, email address, username, profile image, and authentication records.
  • Security and session data such as IP address, device identifiers, browser metadata, cookies, and session tokens used to keep your account secure.
  • Billing and subscription metadata received through Polar, such as customer identifiers, subscription status, product selection, payment status, and tax-related transaction details. Websterly does not receive full payment card numbers from Polar checkout.
  • Project and content data such as prompts, chat messages, uploaded files, generated files, deployment settings, share links, project metadata, and collaboration activity.
  • Integration data from services you connect, including GitHub repository details, Vercel project details, Supabase connection details, and related access tokens or keys needed to provide the requested functionality.
  • Usage and diagnostics data such as feature interactions, error logs, performance information, AI model usage, token counts, and operational traces used to monitor and improve the service.
  • Browser-side storage such as local draft content or interface preferences stored on your device to support editing and usability features.
  • Analytics data for published projects where Websterly provisions analytics tooling, including visitor and site-performance metrics for those published experiences.
03

How we use personal data

Websterly uses personal data to provide the service you request, maintain security, communicate with you, and operate the business responsibly.

  • Create and manage accounts, sessions, and authentication flows.
  • Generate code, process prompts, host project workflows, and deliver requested features.
  • Process subscription purchases, track plan status, prevent payment abuse, and support billing issues.
  • Provide integrations with GitHub, Vercel, Supabase, email services, analytics services, and AI model providers.
  • Detect fraud, abuse, unauthorized access, and service misuse.
  • Debug errors, monitor performance, analyze product reliability, and improve Websterly.
  • Respond to support requests, security incidents, and legal obligations.
  • Send service-related notices and, where permitted, product updates or marketing messages that you can opt out of.
05

How we share information

Websterly does not sell your personal information. We share data only as reasonably necessary to run the service, complete transactions you request, comply with the law, or protect Websterly and others.

  • With infrastructure, hosting, authentication, email, analytics, monitoring, and AI service providers that help us operate Websterly.
  • With Polar for subscription billing and transaction processing.
  • With GitHub, Vercel, Supabase, and other integrations when you choose to connect them.
  • With collaborators or workspace members where your project settings allow shared access.
  • With legal authorities or professional advisers when required by law, court order, or to protect rights, safety, and the integrity of the platform.
  • In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of business assets, subject to appropriate confidentiality and legal safeguards.
06

Cookies, local storage, and similar technologies

Websterly uses cookies and similar browser storage technologies for authentication, security, fraud prevention, remembering preferences, maintaining interface state, and supporting editing features such as draft recovery.

We may also use analytics-related tooling for Websterly or for published projects created through the platform. If you block cookies or local storage, parts of the service may not function correctly.

  • Authentication and session cookies help keep you signed in and protect your account.
  • Security-related identifiers may be used to detect abuse or suspicious signups.
  • Local browser storage may preserve unsaved editor content or interface settings on your device.
  • Published projects may include analytics tooling when that feature is enabled as part of the Websterly workflow.
07

Data retention

We keep personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to provide Websterly, maintain account history, satisfy legal or tax obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and support legitimate security and backup practices.

Retention periods vary by data type. Account data and project content are generally retained while your account remains active and for a limited period afterward unless you request deletion or a longer retention period is required by law or operational necessity.

08

Security and international data transfers

Websterly uses administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal data, including access controls and encryption where appropriate for sensitive stored credentials and tokens. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, so you should also use strong passwords and protect access to your own connected accounts.

Websterly and its service providers may process data in countries other than your own. When required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for international transfers.

09

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or export personal data, and to withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing.

You can request privacy assistance, deletion, or data-access support by contacting support@websterly.dev. You can also manage certain information directly in your account, disconnect integrations, and cancel subscriptions from the tools made available to you.

  • Update account information and project settings from within Websterly where available.
  • Unsubscribe from optional marketing messages using the link in the message or by contacting support.
  • Ask us to delete your account, subject to legal, security, fraud-prevention, backup, and contractual retention needs.
10

Children's privacy

Websterly is not intended for children who are not legally able to use the service under applicable law, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children in violation of those laws. If you believe a child has provided personal data to Websterly inappropriately, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to Websterly, legal requirements, or our data practices. The updated version becomes effective when posted unless a later date is stated.
