1. Introduction

Altide ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Altide platform, including our website at tryaltide.com and the Altide application at app.tryaltide.com (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and authentication credentials through our authentication provider, Clerk. We do not store your password directly.

Organization & Business Data

To provide our services, we collect your organization name, business niche, competitor information, brand details, and content you create or manage through the platform.

Third-Party Integrations

When you connect third-party services such as Google Search Console, we store OAuth access tokens and refresh tokens required to access your data on those platforms. We request only the minimum scopes necessary (e.g., read-only access to Search Console data). You can disconnect these integrations at any time from your dashboard.

Payment Information

Billing and payment processing is handled by Stripe. We do not store your full credit card number, CVV, or other sensitive payment details on our servers. Stripe may collect and store this information in accordance with their own privacy policy.
