Privacy Policy
Guided Tools ("we", "us") provides short, guided courses and free guides at guidedtools.com. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and the choices you have. The short version: we collect the minimum needed to run the service, we don't sell your data, and we don't run advertising trackers.
What we collect
- Account data. If you create an account: your email address and authentication credentials (handled by our authentication provider, Supabase).
- Learning data. Your course progress, lesson results, streaks, and preferences, so the product can work.
- Error reports. We use PostHog for error monitoring only: no autocapture, no pageview tracking, no session recording. When something breaks, an error event with a short reference code is recorded so we can fix it.
- Local storage.The app stores your session token, theme choice, and onboarding progress in your browser's local storage. These stay on your device.
What we don't do
- We don't sell or rent your personal data.
- We don't run third-party advertising or cross-site tracking.
- We don't record your sessions or capture your browsing behavior.
Affiliate links
Some blog posts contain affiliate links. If you buy through them we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Clicking one takes you to the partner's site, where their privacy policy applies. See our full disclosure.
Service providers
We rely on a small set of processors to run the service: Vercel (hosting), Supabase (authentication and data storage), and PostHog (error monitoring). Each processes data on our behalf under their own data-processing terms.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (including under the GDPR), you can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data, and you can object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, email guidedtools@gmail.comfrom the address associated with your account. We'll respond within 30 days.
Data retention
Account and learning data are kept while your account exists and deleted on request. Error reports are retained only as long as needed for debugging.
Changes
If we make material changes to this policy, we'll update this page and the date above.
