brickster.ai collects only what we need to run the service. This page describes exactly what — written in plain English instead of legalese.
What we collect
Email address (waitlist only)
When you join the waitlist, we store your email address in our database and use it for one purpose: to email you when the digest launches and, after launch, to send you the digest. We do not share your email with third parties or use it for advertising or remarketing. We don't sell email lists. We don't enrich your email against any third-party database.
Along with your email we record the source of the signup (hero or footerform) and the timestamp. That's it.
Anonymous server logs
Our hosting provider (Vercel) collects standard server-access logs (IP address, user-agent, request path, timestamp, response status) for traffic analysis and abuse prevention. These logs are not linked to your email and are not used for advertising.
What we do NOT collect
- Third-party tracking cookies (no Google Analytics, no Meta pixel, no LinkedIn Insight)
- Behavioral advertising profiles
- Cross-site identifiers
- Voluntarily submitted personal information beyond the email address
How we use the AI assistant
The AI assistant on the home page sends your question to Google's Gemini API to embed it and to generate the answer. We do not store your question on our servers. Google may retain it according to Google's own data-handling terms — see Gemini API data governance.
Data processors
The companies we rely on to operate the site:
- Vercel, Inc. — hosting and edge logs. vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy
- Supabase, Inc. — Postgres database where waitlist emails are stored. supabase.com/privacy
- Google LLC — Gemini API for assistant queries and content summaries. policies.google.com/privacy
How long we keep your data
Waitlist email: until you ask us to delete it, or until brickster.ai shuts down — whichever comes first.
Server access logs: 30 days, as per Vercel's default retention policy.
Your rights
Regardless of where you are based, you can:
- Get a copy of your data — email hello@brickster.ai and we'll send you everything we have on file (i.e. your email plus signup timestamp and source) within 30 days.
- Delete your data — same email address. Ask us to delete and we will.
- Unsubscribe — every digest email will have a one-click unsubscribe link.
If you are based in the EU/EEA you have additional rights under the GDPR (right to rectification, right to data portability, right to object, right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority). All of these are honored — email us to exercise them.
Cookies
We do not set first-party tracking cookies. We do not embed third-party tracking scripts. The site uses localStorage only for persisting your light/dark theme preference; this never leaves your browser.
Children
brickster.ai is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EU/EEA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have, please contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we change anything material, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For substantive changes affecting waitlist subscribers, we'll send a notice email before the change takes effect.
