privacy policy

What we collect, what we don't.

This page explains the information we use to prepare readings, process payments, deliver emails, and operate the website.

What we collect

For free readings: your birth date, birth time, and birth city. The sections below also explain website analytics and abuse prevention.

For paid Deep Dives: the above, plus the email address you enter at Stripe Checkout so we can deliver the reading.

For HopeGraph Daily: we store your email address, birth details, timezone, and delivery preferences to prepare your daily emails. If you add another person, we also store their label and birth details. Starting checkout can create this record before payment is completed. Use the management link in a Daily email to update your details, or contact us to request deletion.

You do not need to create a password-based account. Our reading forms do not ask for your phone number or home address. Payment information is handled by Stripe. We also collect the limited measurement and security information described below.

Where it’s stored

Free readings:your birth info is stored in your browser's localStorageso you don't have to retype it when you move between pages. It never touches our database. When you submit a chart, the birth details are processed on our server. We do not save the free reading or its birth details as a reading record in our database.

Paid Deep Dives: your calculated chart, written reading, email address, and Stripe checkout reference are saved to our database so you can return to the permanent URL anytime. We keep it indefinitely unless you ask us to delete it.

Daily subscribers: your email, chart details, timezone, delivery preferences, subscription information, and past letters are stored to prepare future readings and manage your subscription. Cancelling does not automatically delete this information; you can request deletion by email.

You can clear your local storage at any time via your browser's site settings for hopegraph.com.

Who else sees your data

We use these third parties to make the site work. Their roles are described below:

  • Anthropic (the AI that writes your readings) receives calculated chart data. Daily also uses recent letters and the label of any second person you add. We do not include your email or raw birth details in the reading prompts. See their privacy policy.
  • Stripe (payments) handles your card details directly; we never see the full card details. Stripe receives your email, payment and subscription information, and, for Deep Dives, birth details attached to the checkout so we can prepare your reading after payment. See their privacy policy.
  • Resend (email delivery) receives your email address and the messages we send, including Daily readings, confirmation messages, and reading or management links. Policy.
  • Supabase (our database) stores paid readings, Daily profiles and letters, subscription records, and the measurement and security records described below. Policy.
  • Vercel(hosting and analytics) runs the site, may capture standard server-level access logs (IP, user agent, request path) for security and reliability, and provides the anonymous page-view analytics described in “Cookies and tracking” below. Policy.
  • OpenStreetMap Nominatim(city lookup) receives the city you entered (e.g., “Chicago, IL”) to convert it to coordinates for the true- solar-time correction. No personal data attached.

We do not sell your data or display advertisements on the site.

Cookies and tracking

HopeGraph does not set tracking cookies. We use browser storage to remember birth details and mailing-list signup status. Temporary tab storage records a broad visit source and visit identifier for the campaign measurement described below.

We use Vercel Web Analytics to count page views and unique visitors anonymously. It does not use cookies, does not fingerprint visitors across sessions, and does not share data with third parties for advertising. What we see: which pages were viewed, what country and device class (mobile / desktop / tablet) viewed them, and what referring site they came from. Nothing that identifies you personally. Vercel's analytics privacy policy.

Campaign measurement and abuse prevention

We count visits, completed readings, checkout starts, and confirmed purchases by broad source, such as Reddit. A temporary browser-tab identifier avoids counting the same visit twice. Purchase events include the product, amount, and currency, but no email, birth details, reading text, or private management links. These records stay in our database; we do not send them to Reddit.

To prevent automated abuse, we keep request counters keyed by a server-protected hash of your network address, not the address itself. People sharing a network may share a request allowance.

Your rights

You can ask us to delete your paid reading, your Daily subscription record, or both, at any time. When cancelling Daily, you can stop emails immediately or receive them until your paid period ends. Request deletion separately if you also want the stored chart and letter history removed. Email admin@hopegraph.com with the URL of your reading (or just your buyer email) and we'll remove the requested records within 7 days.

If you're in the EU/UK, you also have GDPR rights to access, correct, or port your data. Same email; we'll respond within the legally required timeframe.

Security

We encrypt connections to the website and database. Stripe handles payment card details. Direct public access to private reading and subscriber records is blocked. Your saved reading and Daily settings use private links: anyone with one of those links may be able to view the reading or manage the subscription, so keep them private.

No system is perfectly secure. If you become aware of a vulnerability, please email admin@hopegraph.com.

Children

HopeGraph is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 13.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we collect or use data, we'll update the date at the top of this page and, for material changes affecting paid customers, email everyone who has purchased a Deep Dive.
