Privacy Policy

Last updated: 6 July 2026

Homescreen (“we”, “us”) is the app-building service at gethomescreen.com. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. Questions any time: axel@gethomescreen.com.

What we collect

• Account details. Your email address and sign-in identity, handled by our authentication provider, Clerk. We never see or store your password.
• Your content. The app descriptions you write, the content and branding you add to your apps, and the apps we generate for you.
• Payment details. Processed by Stripe. We never store card numbers; we keep records of your plan, invoices, and payouts.
• Usage data. How the builder and your published apps are used (pages viewed, features used, build events), collected through PostHog and our own logs, tied to a random identifier where possible.
• Push subscriptions. If a fan enables notifications for a creator's app, we store the push subscription needed to deliver them.

Your fans' data

When fans sign up, subscribe, or save progress inside a creator's app, we process that data on the creator's behalf: the creator is the controller of their audience; we are their processor. We never sell fan data or use one creator's audience to benefit anyone else. Fans can contact the creator or us to exercise their rights.

How we use it

• To build, host, and run your apps — including sending your app descriptions and content to our AI providers to generate your app. Our AI providers do not train on this data.
• To operate subscriptions, billing, and creator payouts.
• To understand what's working and fix what isn't.
• To email you about the product — marketing email only with your consent, and every message has an unsubscribe link.

Who we share it with

Only the services that run Homescreen: Clerk (authentication), Stripe (payments and payouts), MongoDB Atlas (database), Fly.io and Cloudflare (hosting), PostHog (analytics), and our AI model providers (app generation). Each processes data under its own agreement with us. We don't sell personal data. Some providers process data in the United States under standard contractual clauses.

Keeping and deleting data

We keep your data while your account is active. Delete your account and we delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days, except records we must keep (like invoices). Email us to delete your account or exercise any right below.

Your rights

Under UK and EU data-protection law you can access, correct, export, restrict, object to, or delete your personal data, and withdraw consent at any time. Email axel@gethomescreen.com and we'll respond within a month. You can also complain to the ICO (UK) or your local authority.

Cookies

We use the cookies needed to keep you signed in (Clerk) and a first-party analytics identifier. No advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we'll say so on this page and, for significant changes, by email.
