Privacy policy
Last updated: [date]
Who we are
Unicorn Email is run by [legal name], [address]. Contact us about privacy at [email]. [EU or UK representative, if needed]
Unicorn Email lets people follow brands and receive their promotions in an inbox inside the app. It doesn’t use your email inbox, and you can’t send mail through it.
What we hold, and why
| What | Why | Our basis [confirm] |
|---|---|---|
| Your account: name, email address and picture, and your sign-in details, handled by Clerk | To sign you in | Providing the service |
| Who you follow: when you agreed, where in the app, and when you stopped | To deliver only what you agreed to, and to show that you agreed | Consent |
| Your inbox: what you received, and what you read, favorited, archived or hid | To run your inbox | Providing the service |
| Reports you make: the reason and any note | To review promotions that may break the rules | Legitimate interests |
| If you apply to publish: your publisher’s name, category, website and what you’ll publish | To review your application | Providing the service |
| If you publish: your publisher’s details, your role, your templates, images and promotions, and who changed them | To run the studio and show who did what | Providing the service |
| Counts of recent actions, such as follows and uploads | To limit abuse | Legitimate interests |
We don’t sell your data, show advertising or use advertising trackers.
Who can see it
- Publishers see totals, such as how many people follow them or received a promotion. They don’t see who you are, what you read, or who reported them.
- Unicorn Email’s admins can see publishers’ details, promotions and reports. Reports are shown to them as counts and reasons, without who reported.
- Anyone can read a promotion its publisher made public on their brand page, with no account. That page doesn’t show who follows the brand.
- Publisher members can see each other’s names on the work they changed.
Images in promotions come from Unicorn Email, so opening one tells no other site that you did. If you click a link in a promotion, you go to that site, and its own privacy policy applies.
Services we use
- Clerk for accounts and sign-in.
- Convex for the database and stored images.
- Vercel for hosting the app.
- Sentry for error reports: what went wrong, the address of the page and the type of browser, without your name or email address.
[Their locations, and the safeguards for transfers outside your country]
Emails
Promotions are delivered only inside the app. Nothing a publisher sends goes to your email address. Your email address is used for your account, such as signing in. We don’t email the outcome of a publisher application; it shows in your account.
Your choices and rights
- Unfollow at any time. New promotions stop straight away. What you already received stays until you archive or hide it.
- Download your data from Account: a file with your profile, who you follow, your inbox and your reports.
- Delete your account from Account. If you are the only owner of a publisher, ask us to close it or give it a new owner first.
- [Other rights where you live, such as correcting your data or complaining to a regulator, and how to use them]
What happens when you delete your account
We remove your name, email address, picture and sign-in, your inbox, your memberships, any application still waiting, and the notes on your reports. Your follows end.
We keep records other people rely on, without your name: that a consent was given or revoked, reports you made, and promotions you published.
Copies in our backups are gone within 7 days.
How long we keep data
We keep your data while you have an account, and remove it as above when you delete it. Image uploads that are never finished are deleted after a day. [Any limits for inactive accounts, and for what’s kept after deletion]
Security
Promotions are sanitized and shown in a sandbox that can’t run scripts or reach your account.
Children
[Minimum age, and what we do if we learn a child has an account]
Changes
We’ll change the date above when this policy changes, and [how we’ll tell people about big changes].
