Privacy Policy

Kadapt Ltd (UK) is the data controller. Contact: [email protected]. UK GDPR applies because we’re a UK company; US state privacy laws (CCPA/CPRA, and similar laws in Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Utah, and other states) apply to covered US residents. Effective 2026-07-13 (provisional).

1. What we collect

Category Examples Source
Account name, email, business name, timezone/working hours you
Brand & uploads listing photos, logos, headshots, brand docs, website content we scrape at your request you
Generated content stills, videos, scripts, captions, voiceover created by the service
Usage & analytics pages/features used, generation counts, device/browser, approximate location GA4 + our logs
Billing handled by Stripe — we never hold full card numbers; we see customer/subscription status and card fingerprint (trial-abuse control) Stripe
Comms support messages, chat with the agent, push subscription endpoints, self-reported performance (“how did the reel do?”) you
Affiliate referral attribution (who referred whom, commissionable events) — tracked first-party via a kadapt_ref cookie us / Stripe

2. Why we process it (lawful bases)

Contract (provide the service, generate content, bill you); legitimate interests (product improvement, fraud/abuse prevention, proactive in-app suggestions); consent (marketing emails, analytics cookies, showcasing your content); legal obligation (tax, accounting).

3. Processors / sub-processors

Processor Role Data Location
Cloudflare (R2, Pages) storage & hosting uploads, generated media, backups global network (US entity)
OpenRouter → model providers (currently ByteDance/Seedance, Anthropic, DeepSeek, Google) AI generation your prompts and uploaded photos are sent to the model provider to generate content US / provider-dependent
ElevenLabs voiceover synthesis voiceover script text (never your photos) US
Stripe payments, tax billing data, card fingerprint US/global
Resend transactional email email address, message content US
Google (GA4) analytics usage events, device data US/global
Meta Platforms (Meta pixel) advertising measurement & retargeting usage events, device data, IP address US/global — not loaded for UK/EU visitors
VPS provider (Hetzner/OVH) app hosting & database account + application data EU

Please note in particular: content you upload is processed by third-party AI model providers under their terms; we configure no-training/limited-retention options where the provider offers them.

4. Retention

  • Uploaded and generated media: retained for the life of the account; removed on account deletion.
  • Account data: for the life of the account + a short wind-down; deleted on verified request (except billing records we must keep for tax — UK: 6 years).
  • Backups: encrypted, rotated; deletions propagate on backup expiry.

5. International transfers

We’re a UK company; our customers are mostly in the US and most processors are US-based. Transfers out of the UK rely on the UK International Data Transfer Agreement / UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy where available, and processor data-processing agreements.

6. Security & breach notification

  • Transport encryption everywhere; media stored under scoped credentials; database on a hardened server with continuous encrypted backup; secrets never in client code; access limited to Kadapt personnel who need it.
  • Payment card data is handled entirely by Stripe (PCI-DSS); it never touches our servers.
  • If a breach creates risk to you, we’ll notify the UK ICO within 72 hours where required and affected users without undue delay, with what happened and what we’re doing.

7. Your rights

  • UK/EU-style rights (access, rectification, erasure, portability, objection, restriction) — honoured for everyone as policy.
  • California (CCPA/CPRA) and similar states: know/access, delete, correct, opt out of “sale”/“sharing.” We do not sell personal information for money.
  • How to exercise: in-app (account deletion, data export, marketing opt-out are self-serve) or email [email protected]; we verify identity via the account email and respond within one month (UK GDPR) / 45 days (CCPA), whichever applies.
  • Complaints: UK ICO; or your state attorney general.

8. Cookies

Cookie/tech Type Purpose Consent?
Session/auth (first-party) essential keep you signed in no (strictly necessary)
GA4 (_ga etc.) analytics usage measurement yes — the “Analytics” choice in our cookie banner. Nothing is loaded until you accept
Meta pixel (_fbp) advertising measuring ad performance and building retargeting audiences yes — the “Advertising” choice in our cookie banner. Nothing is loaded until you accept
TikTok pixel (_ttp) and kadapt_ttclid advertising measuring TikTok ad performance and tying an ad click to a signup yes — the “Advertising” choice, same as the Meta pixel
kadapt_ref (first-party) attribution 60-day partner/referral attribution window — set only when you arrive via a ?ref= link yes
kadapt_p (first-party) attribution 60-day campaign attribution token — set only when you arrive via an email link carrying a ?p= parameter yes
Stripe (checkout) essential payment/fraud prevention no (necessary for payment)
Web Push subscription not a cookie notifications — the browser permission prompt is the consent browser-level

How the choice works. If you are in the UK, the EEA or Switzerland, we ask before anything optional loads. Until you choose, no analytics or advertising script is fetched at all — not loaded-but-idle, simply not there. Rejecting is one click, in the same place and the same size as accepting. Outside those regions the optional cookies are on by default and you can still turn them off at any time.

Changing your mind. Use Cookie settings, also linked in the footer of every page. Turning something off takes effect immediately and reloads the page so anything already running stops. We re-ask after 12 months. Clearing your browser storage also clears the choice, and we will ask again.

9. Business changes

If Kadapt Ltd is acquired or its assets sold, customer data transfers with the business under the same commitments; we’ll notify you.
