Privacy Policy

What We Collect

Account Information

• Email address — From Clerk when you sign up. We use it to identify you and send important updates.
• Name (if you provide it) — For your profile in the dashboard.

Gateway Connection Data

When your gateway connects to our relay:

• Connection timestamps — When you connect and disconnect
• Gateway identifiers — So we know which gateway is which
• Connection status — Online/offline state

Activity Events

Your agents send activity events to the relay. This includes:

• Event types — What actions your agents perform
• Timestamps — When things happened
• Metadata — Context about the activity (varies by agent)

We don't see the actual content your agents work with (like file contents or messages) unless that data is explicitly included in activity events by your agent configuration.

Why We Collect It

Simple: to make Beanstalk work.

• Account info → So you can log in and we can reach you
• Connection data → So the dashboard shows which gateways are online
• Activity events → So you can see what your agents are doing

We also use aggregated data to:

• Fix bugs and improve performance
• Understand how people use the product
• Plan future features

What We Don't Do

• Sell your data to anyone
• Use your data for advertising
• Share individual activity with third parties
• Train AI models on your data

Who Has Access

Us: The Beanstalk team (currently just Tommy and collaborators).

Infrastructure providers: Our data passes through:

• Clerk — Authentication (they have their own privacy policy)
• Vercel — Hosting the web app
• Fly.io — Hosting the relay server
• Turso — Edge database (libSQL) storing your gateway and account data
• Anthropic — Powers the AI insights feature (receives dashboard context, not your activity content)

These providers only see what's necessary to provide their service. They don't have rights to use your data beyond that.

How Long We Keep It

• Account data — Until you delete your account
• Activity events — 90 days by default (we may adjust this during beta)
• Connection logs — 30 days

When you delete your account, we delete your data within 30 days. Some data may persist in backups for up to 90 days before those cycle out.

Cookies

Beanstalk itself uses minimal cookies. But:

Clerk uses cookies and local storage for authentication. This is necessary to keep you logged in. We don't control Clerk's cookies — see their privacy policy for details.

We don't use tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or advertising cookies.

Your Rights

You can:

• See your data — Most of it is visible in the dashboard
• Export your data — Email us and we'll send you what we have
• Delete your account — Settings → Delete Account. Your data goes with it.
• Ask questions — Email us anytime

If you're in the EU, you have additional rights under GDPR. We're a small US-based operation but we'll do our best to accommodate reasonable requests.

Security

We use HTTPS everywhere. Authentication goes through Clerk. We don't store passwords ourselves.

That said, no system is perfectly secure. We're a beta product run by a small team. We take reasonable precautions, but we can't guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Policy

If we change how we handle your data, we'll update this page and notify you. The "last updated" date at the top shows when we last made changes.
