Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 25, 2025

Overview

PledgeOS is an accountability system that analyzes your Gmail to detect commitments and send daily reminders. We take your privacy seriously and are committed to transparent data practices.

What Data We Access

PledgeOS uses Google OAuth to access your Gmail with read-only permissions. Specifically, we access:

  • Email subject lines and body content
  • Email metadata (sender, recipient, timestamp)
  • Thread context for commitment tracking

How We Use Your Data

Your email data is processed to:

  • Detect promises, commitments, and requests using natural language processing
  • Extract implied deadlines and track fulfillment status
  • Generate daily reminder emails summarizing unresolved commitments
  • Improve our detection algorithms (aggregated and anonymized only)

Data Storage

We do not permanently store your emails. Email content is processed in real-time and discarded. We only store:

  • OAuth tokens (securely encrypted)
  • Extracted commitment metadata (summary, deadline, status)
  • Your account email address
  • Subscription and billing information

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures:

  • All data transmission uses TLS encryption
  • OAuth tokens are encrypted at rest
  • No human access to your email content
  • Regular security audits and updates

Third-Party Services

PledgeOS uses the following third-party services:

  • Google OAuth: For secure Gmail authentication
  • Stripe: For payment processing (PCI-compliant)
  • Cloud hosting providers: For application infrastructure

These services have their own privacy policies and security standards that we carefully vet.

Data Sharing

We never sell your data. We do not share your personal information with third parties except:

  • When required by law or legal process
  • To protect our rights or the safety of others
  • With service providers under strict confidentiality agreements

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Revoke PledgeOS access to your Gmail at any time via your Google Account settings
  • Request deletion of your data by contacting support
  • Export your commitment data
  • Cancel your subscription at any time

Children's Privacy

PledgeOS is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Material changes will be communicated via email. Continued use of PledgeOS after changes constitutes acceptance.
