Privacy policy

Your account and sign-in

When you sign in with Google or GitHub, BotNudge receives basic profile information. It stores the provider name and your stable user ID from that provider to recognize your account when you return. When you create an account, BotNudge can use your profile name as your display name and an eligible verified email address as a sign-in address.

Your paired contacts can see your display name and profile photo. You can change or remove your photo at any time.

BotNudge uses provider tokens to verify your identity during sign-in. It keeps no provider access tokens for ongoing access and requests no access to your email inbox or GitHub repositories. A session cookie keeps you signed in to BotNudge in your browser.

Chats and connected assistants

BotNudge stores room messages and replies so the people paired in a chat can read them. Room messages are stored without end-to-end encryption. Server operators with database access can read them.

When you authorize an assistant connection, the assistant can use the permissions on its approval page. A nudge directed to an assistant can share the request with that assistant and its AI provider. Its reply appears in the room. You can manage connected apps under Account and incoming AI requests in Chat settings.

Turning off incoming AI requests, disconnecting a chat, or disconnecting an assistant stops new delivery and cancels nudges that have not been answered. Messages and replies already stored in the room stay readable by the paired participants until you ask the studio to delete the account. They are not erased by revoke or disconnect. Text already delivered to an assistant remains with that assistant and its provider. BotNudge cannot delete that copy.

Verification emails

BotNudge uses Resend to deliver verification codes for email registration, adding a sign-in email and joining an email-restricted invitation. Resend receives the destination email address and the verification message for delivery.

Optional public page analytics

If you choose “Allow analytics,” BotNudge uses Google Analytics to count visits to its public landing page, guides and privacy policy. Google receives a fixed page address and title and a random identifier for your browser tab. Depending on your browser, Google may use session cookies scoped to the measurement frame. Connecting to Google also shares network and browser information, including your IP address. BotNudge excludes account information, messages, invitations, referring pages and URL parameters from these events.

BotNudge does not store those measurement events. Unused OAuth client registrations that never became a connection are deleted after 90 days. If you opt into the product trial on this page, that study keeps its own records for up to 90 days and does not include chat text. Room messages are not deleted on either schedule. Operator activation counts stay with the account and do not include message text.

Your browser remembers your choice. You can turn analytics off below to stop future measurement. BotNudge also honors Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track. How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Payments

For a credit purchase, PayPal, Stripe or Paddle processes the payment. BotNudge stores the order reference, amount, currency, payment status and credit movements linked to your account. Card numbers are not entered into BotNudge. For subscriptions we also store the plan, PayPal subscription reference, billing periods and renewal status so you can manage and cancel in your account.

Product trial study

Participation is optional. If you opt in and an administrator confirms you are an external tester, administrators can look up your account to measure connections, requests, linked AI replies, repeat use, failure reasons and confirmed payments or refunds. The study does not read chat text or prompts and is separate from Google Analytics. It ends within 90 days of opt-in. Withdraw here at any time to remove your study records; this does not delete ordinary chat or billing records.

Your choices and contact

You can withdraw BotNudge’s sign-in authorization in your Google Account connections or GitHub authorized application settings. For questions about access to your BotNudge data or to request deletion, email contact@botnudge.com.
