< Back Privacy Policy
Last updated: 14 July 2026
Your privacy is important to us. It is CTRLpotato's policy to respect your
privacy regarding any personal information we may collect through our
software and website.
What We Collect and Why
We collect and process information needed to provide, secure, and improve
the CTRLpotato service. This includes:
- Account Information: Your email address or third-party
login (e.g. Google Sign-In) is used to create and manage your account.
- Subscription & Payment Info: Subscription payments are
securely processed via Stripe. CTRLpotato does not store or handle your
full payment card details. We only store the metadata required to manage
your subscription (e.g. plan, status, billing history).
- Local App Content: Documents and interaction history that
you add to the CTRLpotato desktop app can be stored on your device. When
you invoke an AI feature, the context needed for that request may be
transmitted for processing as described below.
- AI Request Content: When you use an AI feature—including
the website Tell Me About Yourself generator—the text, job context,
selected content, screenshots, or transcriptions you submit is sent
through CTRLpotato's service to an external AI provider to generate the
requested result. We process this content to provide the feature. The
submitted content and generated answer are not intentionally included in
analytics event properties.
- Interaction History (Stored Locally): A local history of
your previous interactions is stored on your device to support features
like the history view. You can delete this history at any time from within
the app.
- Website Generator Security and Allowance Data: The free
website generator does not require an account. To enforce its three-run
rolling 24-hour network allowance and prevent automated abuse, we may
process an IP address, browser and security signals, a Cloudflare
Turnstile token, and limited request metadata such as time, result status,
and remaining allowance.
- Website Analytics: We may collect page views, broad
device and location information, referral or campaign parameters, and
product events such as starting or completing a tool. We do not
intentionally place résumé text, job descriptions, generated answers,
or practice audio in website analytics.
- Local Voice Practice: Audio recorded by the current
website generator's voice-practice control is used for local playback in
your browser and is not sent to the answer-generation service. When live
transcription is supported, your browser may process speech through its
own speech service. CTRLpotato receives neither the practice recording
nor the resulting transcript; the transcript is only shown and editable
in the current tab.
AI request content is transmitted only when you ask an AI feature to
generate a result. AI output can be inaccurate, so you should review it
before using it. An external AI provider's handling and retention of request
content is governed by the applicable provider terms and the service
configuration CTRLpotato uses.
Third-Party Services
We use trusted third-party services to operate core parts of CTRLpotato,
including:
- Stripe for subscription payments and billing
- Supabase for account and authentication services
- AI service providers for processing AI requests and generating responses
- Cloudflare for network delivery, security, and Turnstile abuse prevention
- Umami for website analytics
These providers receive information needed to perform their function and
handle it under their applicable terms, privacy commitments, and our service
configuration.
We may introduce additional services over time to improve or maintain the
product. Any such services will follow the same privacy principles.
Your Control and Rights
You may decline to use specific features of CTRLpotato, such as submitting
documents or text for an AI response, though some functionality may be
limited. The free website generator can be used without creating an account.
You may request deletion of your account and associated metadata by
contacting us at [email protected].
Locally stored app data can be deleted from within the app. Resetting or
closing the website generator clears its current in-browser form and local
practice recording.
External Links
CTRLpotato may include links to third-party websites not operated by us. We
are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.
Acceptance
Your continued use of CTRLpotato constitutes acceptance of this privacy
policy and how your data is handled.
This policy is effective as of 14 July 2026.
