This policy explains what adulting.app ("we", "us") collects, why, and what control you have. The short version: we collect what the product needs to work, we share it only with the infrastructure providers that run the product, we don't sell it, and we don't use your content to train AI models.
What we collect
Account data: email address, name, password (stored only as a salted hash), notification preferences, and email-verification status.
Household content you add: your household's profile and the records you create — properties, assets, vehicles, pets, tasks, projects, notes, insurance details, contractor contacts, and profiles you choose to add about household members, including children in your care.
Uploaded documents: files you put in the vault, stored privately in object storage and reachable only through short-lived signed links generated for authenticated household members.
Operational data: authentication events (sign-ins, password changes, with IP address and browser info) kept as a security audit trail; an activity log of household actions; error reports; and standard server logs.
We do not collect payment card numbers (Stripe handles payment details when paid plans are active) and we run no advertising trackers. The app uses browser local storage for your session — no third-party ad cookies.
How we use it
To run the product: generating your household's plan and reminders, sharing content with your household's members, sending the emails you'd expect (verification, password reset and security notices, invites, and the digests or nudges you can turn off in settings), preventing abuse (rate limiting, a bot challenge at registration), and fixing problems (error reports). Aggregate, de-identified usage statistics help us understand what to build; your household can opt out of contributing to them in settings.
If you use document scanning, the document you choose to scan is sent to Anthropic (an AI provider) to extract details like provider names and renewal dates, which are shown to you to accept or dismiss. Documents are never sent for scanning unless you trigger it, and are not used to train models.
Who we share it with
No selling, no ad networks, no data brokers. Your data is processed by the infrastructure the product runs on:
Railway (application hosting, database, and document object storage) · Cloudflare (site delivery and the registration bot challenge) · Resend (transactional email) · Sentry (error monitoring) · Anthropic (document scanning, only when you use it) · Stripe (payments, when paid plans are active).
Beyond these processors, we disclose data only if required by law, to protect the Service and its users, or as part of a business transfer — and household content is of course visible to the members of your household, per your roles and invitations.
Children
The Service is for adults (18+). Parents and guardians may add profiles about children in their household — that information is provided by you, under your account, and visible only to your household. We don't knowingly collect information directly from children under 13; if you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we'll delete it.
Retention and deletion
We keep your data while your account is active. Deleting a document removes it from storage; removing a household member ends their access. To delete your account and its data, email [email protected] from your account address — we'll delete household content you own within 30 days, except minimal records we must keep (like billing records, security logs, and backups that expire on schedule). To export your data, ask the same way — the Service also offers API access you can use yourself.
Security
Data is encrypted in transit; documents live in private storage behind short-lived signed links; passwords are hashed; sessions use rotating tokens; sign-in activity is logged so unusual access can be spotted. No system is perfectly secure — if we learn of a breach affecting your data, we'll notify you without undue delay.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data. Email [email protected] and we'll honor applicable requests. We don't discriminate for exercising them.
International users
The Service is operated from the United States, is directed to United States residents, and stores and processes data on servers in the United States. If you use the Service from elsewhere, you understand that your information is transferred to and processed in the United States, where data-protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.
Changes and contact
If we change this policy materially, we'll notify you by email or in the app before the change takes effect. Questions: [email protected]. See also our Terms of Service.
