Privacy Policy

Account details: your name, email address, and password (stored securely as a hash, never readable by us). If you sign in with Google, we receive your name and email from Google and no password is stored.

Your shop profile: your business type, the products you make, and the niches you choose (including custom niches you type in).

How you use the app: cards you save, your email and alert settings, questions you ask about trend cards, and which alert and weekly emails we've sent you.

Plan and billing: your plan and subscription status. When paid plans are live, card payments are handled by our payment processor; we never see or store your full card number.

Technical data: basic logs (like timestamps and error reports) needed to keep the service running and secure.

Trend cards are built from publicly available information on TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest (hashtags, search phrases, view and post counts, and links to public posts). We don't collect personal information about the creators behind those posts, and we link to the original platform instead of copying their content.

• To run your account and show cards and design ideas matched to your products and niches.
• To answer questions you ask about a trend card (your question and profile are sent to an AI model to write the answer).
• To send the emails you've chosen: the Monday "trends to design this week" email and, for Studio members, instant niche alerts. You can turn these off on your Account page.
• To send account emails like password resets.
• To understand costs and keep the service reliable.

We share only what's needed with trusted service providers:

• Hosting, database, and sign-in (Lovable Cloud) to store your account and run the app.
• AI providers (Anthropic and the Lovable AI Gateway) to write trend cards, design ideas, and answers to your questions. Your name and email are not sent to them.
• Apify to gather public trend data. None of your information is sent to Apify.
• GoHighLevel, our customer and email system, which receives your name, email, business type, products, niches, plan, signup date, and email preferences to deliver the Monday email and account updates.
• Google, if you choose to sign in with Google.
• A payment processor once paid plans are live.

We may also share information if required by law or to protect the safety of our users or service.

• Update your name, products, and niches any time on your Account page.
• Turn the Monday email or instant alerts on or off on your Account page, or use the unsubscribe link in any email.
• Ask us for a copy of your information, or to delete your account and data, by emailing sara@gracefullymanaged.com.

We keep your information while your account is open. If you ask us to delete your account, we delete your profile, saves, and settings within 30 days, except records we must keep for legal, tax, or billing reasons.

Your data is stored with access controls so members can only see their own information. No system is perfect, but we work to protect your information and fix issues quickly.

First Spotted is for business owners and isn't intended for anyone under 18. We don't knowingly collect information from children.

If we make meaningful changes, we'll update the date at the top and let members know by email or in the app.
