Tattoo Agent ("we," "us," or "our") operates the tattooagent.art platform (the "Platform"). This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share your personal information when you use our services.

This privacy policy is provided as a general guide and does not constitute legal advice. We recommend consulting with a legal professional for compliance with your specific jurisdiction.

2. How We Use Your Information

Client Contact Information

When clients book, apply, or get in touch through a studio on Tattoo Agent, Tattoo Agent keeps their name and email address, together with the studio's general location (city, state and timezone). We keep this information even after a studio leaves Tattoo Agent, and we use it to send tattoo-related offers and information from Tattoo Agent and its partners.

Every email includes a one-click unsubscribe, and an unsubscribe is permanent: we will not email that address with offers again. We never sell or hand over these email addresses — offers from our partners are sent by Tattoo Agent, and partners never receive the list.

3. Third-Party Services We Share Data With

We use the following third-party services to operate the Platform. Each processes data according to their own privacy policies:

• Supabase — database hosting and authentication. Stores your account data, business content, and files.
• Anthropic (Claude AI)— AI processing. Your conversations and relevant business context are sent to Anthropic's API to generate AI responses. Anthropic may process this data in accordance with their usage policies.
• Stripe — payment processing. Handles subscription billing, client payments, and payouts. Stripe receives your billing information and transaction data.
• Resend — email delivery. Sends transactional and marketing emails on your behalf. Receives recipient email addresses and email content.
• Google Calendar / Microsoft Outlook / Apple Calendar — calendar sync. Reads and writes events to your connected calendar. Receives appointment details.
• Vercel — web hosting. Serves the Platform and your business website. May process request logs including IP addresses.

4. Data Retention

• Active accounts: we retain your data for as long as your account is active and your subscription is current.
• After cancellation:we keep your data for 90 days after your subscription ends, so you can come back without starting over. After 90 days your studio's data — website, messages, templates, files and booking history — is permanently deleted. Your clients' names and email addresses are kept by Tattoo Agent, as described under “Client Contact Information”.
• Account deletion: if you request account deletion, we will remove your personal data within 30 days. Some anonymized usage data may be retained for analytics.
• Billing records: transaction and billing records are retained for 7 years as required by tax and accounting regulations.

5. Data Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including:

• Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS) for all connections
• Encrypted storage for sensitive credentials (calendar tokens, API keys)
• Row-level security (RLS) in our database to ensure businesses can only access their own data
• Secure payment processing through Stripe (PCI DSS compliant)

While we take reasonable precautions, no system is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
