Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how The Data Company collects, uses, and shares information when you use the website at https://www.datacompany.dev and our software products, including mdocs.

1. Information we collect

We collect the following, depending on how you use the services:

  • Account and contact information — such as your name and email address when you create an account, join a waitlist, or subscribe to our newsletter.
  • Content you provide — the documents, datasets, and other content you create or upload while using the services (for example, your mdocs documents).
  • Payment information — when you make a purchase, our payment processor (Stripe) collects and processes your payment details. We do not store full card numbers.
  • Usage and device data — basic, non-personal information collected through cookies and similar technologies to keep the services working and to understand and improve how they’re used.

2. How we use information

We use information to:

  • provide, operate, and maintain the services;
  • process payments and manage your account;
  • respond to your requests and provide support;
  • send service updates and, if you opt in, newsletters;
  • improve the services and keep them secure.

3. How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us run the business, and only as needed — for example:

  • Stripe for payment processing;
  • Clerk for authentication and account management;
  • cloud hosting and email providers that store data and deliver messages on our behalf.

We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, or security of our users or the services.

4. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, and collect non-personal usage data to improve the services. You can control cookies through your browser settings; some features may not work properly without them.

5. Data retention

We keep personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You can ask us to delete your account and associated content (see below).

6. Your rights and choices

You can access, update, or delete your account information, and you can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in those emails. Depending on where you live — including California residents under the CCPA/CPRA — you may have additional rights to access, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information. To make a request, contact us at legal@datacompany.dev.

7. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to safeguard your data and limit access to it.

8. Children’s privacy

The services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we’ll delete it.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we’ll update the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, notify you.
