Privacy Policy

Baptiste & Co.  ·  Effective July 1, 2026

Who We Are

Marvin is a personal advisory system operated by Baptiste & Co. ("we", "us", "our"). Questions: baptisteandcompany@gmail.com

What We Collect

• Account information — your email address and a hashed passphrase, collected when you subscribe or join.
• Conversation data — messages you send to Marvin, stored to provide continuity across sessions.
• Payment information — handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your card number. We receive a customer ID and subscription status from Stripe.
• Usage data — basic server logs (timestamps, request paths) for system reliability. No analytics platforms, no tracking pixels.

What We Do Not Collect

• We do not collect your name, phone number, address, or any government ID unless you voluntarily provide it in conversation.
• We do not use cookies for tracking. A session token is stored in your browser solely to keep you logged in.
• We do not run ads. We do not have ad partners.

How We Use Your Data

• To provide the Marvin advisory service you subscribed to.
• To send system emails — subscription confirmations, payment failures, and service alerts. We do not send marketing emails.
• To improve the service over time, using aggregated and non-identifiable patterns only.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your data. We share data only with:

• Stripe — to process payments and manage subscriptions.
• Anthropic — your conversation messages are sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate responses. Anthropic's privacy policy governs their handling of that data.
• Law enforcement — only if required by a valid legal process.

Data Retention

Your conversation history is retained for as long as your account is active. If you cancel and request deletion, we will erase your account data within 30 days. Email baptisteandcompany@gmail.com to request deletion.

Security

Passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text. All data is transmitted over HTTPS. We use industry-standard access controls on our database.

Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time by emailing us. We will respond within 30 days.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy. We will post the new effective date above and, for material changes, notify you by email.
