Privacy Policy

Last updated November 9, 2026

Episouls (“we”, “us”) is building a social TV diary. Right now the only thing we offer is a waitlist on episouls.com. This policy explains what we collect through this website and why. We keep it short because we collect very little.

What we collect

• Your email address, when you join the waitlist.
• Signup details: when you signed up, whether you confirmed your email, and when you unsubscribed (if you do).
• Consent record: the wording you agreed to and when, so we can show you asked to hear from us.
• Where you came from, only if your link carried it: a campaign tag (like ?ref= or utm_source) and the referring website's domain.
• Anonymous usage counts: page visits and button clicks (for example “share”), with the page path, campaign tag and referring domain. These events contain no IP address, no cookie, and no identifier linking them to you.
• Abuse protection: to limit spam signups we create a one-way, keyed hash of your IP address and email. It cannot be reversed into your IP address, and we delete it within 24 hours.

We don't use advertising trackers, we don't set analytics cookies, and we never sell your information.

How we use it

• To confirm your email address (double opt-in) and keep your spot on the waitlist.
• To email you about the Episouls launch, early access and beta invitations. Nothing unrelated.
• To understand, in aggregate, how many people visit, sign up and where they hear about us.
• To protect the waitlist from spam and abuse.

Our legal basis is your consent for emails (which you can withdraw at any time) and our legitimate interest in running and securing the website.

Who processes it

We use a small number of service providers to run the site. They process data on our behalf:

• Vercel: website hosting.
• Supabase: database where the waitlist is stored.
• Resend: sending confirmation and waitlist emails.

These providers may process data in the United States and other countries, under their own data-protection terms.

How long we keep it

We keep your waitlist details until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them, or until the waitlist is no longer needed. If you unsubscribe, we keep your email and opt-out date only so we never email you by mistake. If you'd rather we delete everything, use the “Delete my data” option. Unconfirmed signups may be deleted after a reasonable period.

Your choices and rights

• Unsubscribe anytime with the link in any email we send.
• Delete your data instantly from the same link (choose “Delete my data”).
• Access, correct, or ask questions: reply to any email we've sent you.

Depending on where you live (for example the EU, UK or California) you may have additional rights, including complaining to your local data-protection authority.

Children

Episouls isn't directed to children under 13, and you must be at least 13 (or the minimum age of digital consent where you live) to join the waitlist.

Changes

If we change this policy we'll update the date above, and tell waitlist members about significant changes by email before they apply.
