Your Privacy Matters
We're committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your data. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and your rights.
Last updated: January 27, 2026
Your Notes Stay Private
Personal notes and tracking data are visible only to you.
Community Contributions
Shared agent data helps the community while protecting your identity.
Data Security
Industry-standard encryption protects all your information.
1. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you create an account, we collect information you provide directly, including your name, email address, and any profile information you choose to add. We use Clerk for authentication, which may collect additional data as described in their privacy policy.
User-Generated Content
This includes any contributions you make to the platform, such as agent information, reviews, and edits. This data is shared with the community to help other writers.
Private Data
Your personal tracking data, including which agents you've queried, submission dates, response tracking, and private notes, are stored securely and are never shared with other users or third parties. This data is visible only to you.
Usage Information
We automatically collect certain information when you use our service, including your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited. This helps us improve the platform and troubleshoot issues.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve our services
- Process your account registration and manage your account
- Enable your personal query tracking and note-taking features
- Display community contributions (without identifying personal submission data)
- Send you service-related communications
- Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security issues
- Analyze usage patterns to improve user experience
- Comply with legal obligations
3. Crowdsourced Data & Ownership
Community Contributions
When you contribute agent information to QueryBase, you're helping build a resource for the entire writing community. Contributed data (such as agent details, submission guidelines, and response statistics) becomes part of our shared database.
What We Share vs. What Stays Private
- Shared: Agent profiles, submission guidelines, genre preferences, and aggregated response statistics (e.g., "70% response rate")
- Private: Your personal query list, submission dates, specific responses you've received, and any private notes you've written
Attribution
We do not publicly attribute contributions to specific users. Your contribution history is visible only to you in your account.
4. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data in the following circumstances:
- Service Providers: We work with trusted third parties (hosting, analytics, authentication) who process data on our behalf under strict confidentiality agreements
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights, safety, or the rights of others
- Business Transfers: If we're involved in a merger or acquisition, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction
5. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data:
- All data is encrypted in transit using TLS/SSL
- Sensitive data is encrypted at rest
- We use secure, SOC 2-compliant hosting providers
- Regular security audits and monitoring
- Access controls limit employee access to personal data
While we take extensive precautions, no system is 100% secure. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password and keep your account credentials safe.
6. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Correction: Update or correct inaccurate information
- Deletion: Request deletion of your account and personal data
- Portability: Receive your data in a portable format
- Opt-out: Unsubscribe from marketing communications

7. Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. If you delete your account:
- Your personal tracking data and notes are permanently deleted
- Community contributions may be retained (anonymously) to preserve the integrity of shared data
- Some data may be retained for legal or security purposes
8. Cookies & Tracking
