Privacy policy.
What we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. Plain English.
Last updated · 10 October 2026
1. What we collect
Email address
Collected when you follow a briefing or create an account. Used to deliver the briefings you asked for, confirm a follow, and send essential service messages.
What you follow and when you want it
The briefings you follow, your cadence (weekly, daily, or the days you pick), and your delivery hour. Pro accounts also store the niches you describe in your own words, which we use to build those briefings.
Billing
Pro subscriptions are processed by Stripe. We store your Stripe customer and subscription identifiers and your plan status. We never see or store card numbers.
Assistant access
If you create a personal access token for your assistant, we store a hashed form of it and basic request counts for rate limiting.
Delivery events
Resend tells us whether a briefing was delivered, bounced, or marked as spam. We keep those events to stop sending to addresses that bounce or complain.
Usage signals
Pseudonymous product events (which briefings are read, follows, angle requests) through PostHog, and error reports through Sentry. We use them to keep the Service working and to see which briefings earn their keep.
2. How we use your data
- Build briefings for the niches you follow and send them on the schedule you chose.
- Confirm follows, honor unsubscribes, and stop sending to addresses that bounce.
- Bill and manage Pro through Stripe.
- Authenticate you and protect the Service from abuse.
- Improve the Service from aggregate, pseudonymous usage.
We do not sell your data. We do not use your data to train AI models. We do not share it with third parties except the processors in section 3.
3. Third-party processors
Running Niche requires passing data to these sub-processors:
Briefings are built from published source material, not from your data. A niche you describe for Pro is sent to our search and model providers as the query that finds its stories. Anthropic and OpenAI operate under API terms that prohibit using inputs to train their models.
4. Email
Following by email is double opt-in: we send one confirmation and nothing else until you click it. Every briefing carries a one-click unsubscribe, which takes effect immediately. Quiet days send nothing. We never send marketing to a briefing list, and we never share the list.
5. Data retention
- Follows: kept until you unsubscribe. After that we keep the address on a suppression list so we do not email it again.
- Accounts, custom niches, and settings: deleted within 30 days of an account deletion request.
- Briefings themselves are shared across everyone who follows a niche; they are not personal data and are kept as an archive.
- Server logs and error reports: 30 days.
6. Your rights
You may request a copy of your data, correction of inaccurate data, or deletion of your account and everything tied to it by emailing privacy@nicheangle.com. We respond within 30 days. Unsubscribing never requires an email to us; the link in every briefing does it.
If you are in the EU or UK, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
7. Security
Connections use TLS in transit. Access tokens are stored hashed and are never exposed to the browser. Database access is restricted to authenticated sessions and server-side service roles, with row-level security on every table that holds personal data.
8. Children
Niche is not directed at children. You must be at least 16 to use it, and we delete data we learn belongs to someone younger.
9. Changes to this policy
We will post material changes here and, where appropriate, notify you by email. Continued use of Niche after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
