  • To process payments via Stripe (legal basis: contract).
  • To comply with legal obligations (legal basis: legal obligation).
  • To improve the Service through anonymised analytics (legal basis: legitimate interest).

We do not sell your data. We do not use your project content for advertising or AI training.

  • Stripe (payment processing).
  • Resend (transactional email delivery).

All sub-processors are contractually bound to protect your data and comply with GDPR.

5. Data retention

We retain your account and project data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, your personal data is permanently deleted within 30 days, except where we are legally required to retain it longer.

6. Your rights under GDPR

As a data subject you have the right to:

  • Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification — correct inaccurate data.
  • Erasure — request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
  • Portability — receive your data in a machine-readable format.
  • Restriction — limit how we process your data in certain circumstances.
  • Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interests.

7. Cookies

BuildAHouse uses only strictly necessary cookies (authentication token stored in localStorage, no tracking cookies). We do not use analytics cookies or advertising cookies. No consent banner is required for strictly necessary cookies under GDPR.

8. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures: HTTPS everywhere, bcrypt password hashing, JWT authentication, and role-based access control. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children

The Service is not directed to persons under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will delete it promptly.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify registered users by email of material changes at least 14 days before they take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
