Privacy Policy
Our guiding rule is to collect only what the product needs, say exactly where it goes, and delete it when you ask or when it is no longer needed. This page is the full account. The short version: we never sell your data, we do not let AI companies train on it, and you can download or delete everything we hold from Settings without asking us.
Related pages: Terms of Service, AI Terms and the Data Processing Agreement.
1. Who we are
Toniqe is a product of Toniqe Labs Private Limited, a company registered in India. When we say "Toniqe," "we," "us," or "our," we mean that company. For the data described on this page, we decide why and how it is processed, which the law calls the data controller (GDPR) or data fiduciary (India). When an agency runs reports on its own clients' material, the agency decides and we act on its instructions; that relationship is set out in our Data Processing Agreement.
Privacy questions and requests: privacy@toniqe.com.
2. What we collect, and why
Each kind of data, with the reason we need it.
Your account
Your name, email address and sign-in credentials, handled by our sign-in provider, Clerk. We keep your email so we can sign you in and tell you when a report is ready. If you applied for access, we also keep what you wrote on the application form: company, role, website, monthly ad spend, your biggest challenge. That is how we decide who to let in and what to build next.
If you ask for a demo
What you type on the demo form: your name, work email, company website, role, monthly ad spend and how many ads and landing pages you test a month. We use it to answer the request, prepare the call and see who asks for demos. If you book a call, the booking is made in Cal.com (section 5).
What you submit for a report
The ad creatives you upload or point us to (images, videos, text), the landing page address, and anything you paste. This is the whole point of the product: the report is a judgement on exactly this material.
What Toniqe gathers while making the report
When Toniqe visits a landing page for you, it keeps a screenshot of each step, the page text it read, and what the site's cart showed (product, price, discount), because that is the evidence the report quotes. The visit is built never to type personal details into those pages and never to send them your account details. For market research, it collects public posts about the brand from sites such as Reddit, Quora and YouTube, and public ads from the Meta Ad Library.
How you use the product
Which pages you open and which features you use, tied to your account, so we can see what helps and what does not. In the European Union, the rest of the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom this runs only if you accept it on the cookie banner; elsewhere you can turn it off at any time (section 9). We never record your screen and never capture what you click automatically, because the pages you look at contain other people's advertising.
Your answers
Fifteen and thirty days after a report we may email to ask whether you ran the fixes, what you changed and whether it improved. Your answer is kept against that one report. Section 4 says what it is used for.
Technical records
Our hosting provider keeps short-lived server logs with your IP address and browser details. Our abuse protection keeps a count of your requests, with your account id or IP address, for up to 90 days. Our cost ledger records which outside services each report used; it holds no personal details (for emails, only the domain of the address, never the address itself). When you answer the cookie banner, we keep a record of that answer: when, which choice, the version of the question, the IP address and browser it came from, and your account if you are signed in. That record is how we can show what you agreed to (section 9).
Payment
Dodo Payments sells our paid plans as the merchant of record (section 5). Your card details go straight to them; we never see or store your card number. We keep which plan and billing term you pay for, when you started paying, and the customer reference Dodo gives us.
If you connect Figma
A read-only access token, stored encrypted, so you can pick a design frame as the landing page. Disconnecting in Settings deletes the token.
3. How we use it
We use the data above to:
- run your reports and market research, and show you the results;
- operate your account: sign-in, allowances, emails about reports and your plan;
- answer a demo request and prepare the call;
- keep the product safe: rate limits, abuse detection, security logging;
- improve how Toniqe judges ads and pages, using public ads and public pages, answers you give us, and results stripped of anything that identifies you or your clients — section 4 explains exactly what this means and what it does not;
- meet legal duties, such as keeping records of consent and answering a lawful request.
We send no marketing email. Every email we send is about your account or something you asked for, and none of them carries an unsubscribe link because none of them is marketing. If that ever changes, we will ask first.
Lawful bases (EU, UK and similar laws)
- Contract — running your account and your reports, and answering a demo request you sent.
- Legitimate interests — keeping the service secure; improving how it judges, using public material and de-identified results; reading public posts and public ads about a brand you asked about. You can object (section 8).
- Consent — usage measurement (the cookie banner), connecting Figma, and answering the check-in email. Withdraw at any time.
- Legal obligation — consent records, lawful requests.
4. AI, and what we learn from
Toniqe uses AI services from Google (Gemini API) and Anthropic (Claude API) to make a report. Your material is sent to them for that one job, under their terms.
- Neither trains on it. We use Google's paid API tier, under which Google does not use prompts or responses to improve its products. Anthropic's commercial terms say it may not train models on customer content. Copies sent to Google expire there within 48 hours.
- We do not train AI models on your material either. Toniqe does not build or fine-tune a machine-learning model from customer uploads.
What Toniqe does learn from, in plain terms
Toniqe gets better by keeping records of what works. Here is what goes into those records, and what stays out.
- Public ads and public pages. Ads anyone can see in the Meta Ad Library, and landing pages anyone can visit, including how long an ad has been running. These are not your private data and never were.
- Patterns from every report, never words. When a report reads a brand's public page, Toniqe keeps the patterns it found against that page's address, with no account identifier: the kinds of angle the ads use, the type of page, the kinds of trust signal it shows, and the scores they earned. Headlines, button text, product names and anything else in your or your ad's own words are never kept there. These patterns stay when you delete your account. Private uploads — designs, screenshots, Figma frames — are kept against your account only, are never shared, and go when you go.
- Your check-in answers (did you run it, what changed, did it improve), kept against the report they are about, so we can tell which judgements turned out right. Only accounts that are real customers go on this record; our own and test accounts are excluded by design.
- Aggregated results. Figures such as "pages of this type score 62 on average", made from many reports, from which no customer or client can be identified.
What stays out: your uploads and your words are never shown or passed to another customer; one customer's results are never shown to another; no customer's material is ever used to train a third-party model.
By uploading, you confirm that you own what you upload or have permission to use it this way, including material that is not public yet, and you agree to Toniqe learning from your reports as described here. If you would rather your future reports added nothing, write to privacy@toniqe.com and we will mark your account so. Deleting your account or opting out removes your data and stops future contributions; what Toniqe has already learned stays, because it is kept as patterns across many reports, not as your material.
Automated decisions
A Toniqe score is a judgement about an ad and a page. It makes no decision about you, has no legal or similar effect on you, and every report can be questioned with a person at the address above.
5. Who we share it with
We never sell your data, and we never share it for anyone else's advertising. We share it only with the companies below, which process it on our instructions to run the product, and with authorities when the law requires. Each name links to that company's own privacy terms. The same list is Annex 1 of the Data Processing Agreement.
| Company | What it does for us | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Clerk | Sign-in and account security | United States |
| Supabase | Database and file storage | United States |
| Vercel | Hosting | United States |
| Inngest | Background job processing | United States |
| Upstash | Request limiting and background job processing | United States |
| Google (Gemini API) | AI processing | United States |
| Anthropic (Claude API) | AI processing | United States |
| Firecrawl | Web page capture | United States |
| Browserbase | Cloud browser | United States |
| ScreenshotOne | Page screenshots | See their policy |
| ScrapeCreators | Public ad library lookups | United States |
| Tavily | Web search | United States |
| Sentry | Error monitoring | United States |
| Dodo Payments | Payments and billing, as merchant of record | See their policy |
| Resend | Email delivery | United States |
| PostHog | Product analytics (with your consent) | United States |
| Figma | Design file access (only if you connect it) | United States |
| Google (favicon service) | Site icons | United States |
| Cal.com | Demo call booking | United States |
Two more cases. If Toniqe Labs is sold or merges, your data would move with the product, under this policy, and we would tell you first. And if an agency ran the report, the agency can see it: that is who asked for it.
6. Where it is stored, and transfers
Toniqe Labs is in India. Our database, files and hosting are in the United States (Supabase in Oregon, Vercel in Virginia), and every company in section 5 processes data in the United States unless its row says otherwise. So your data crosses borders: from wherever you are to the United States, and it is reachable by us from India.
For readers in the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland: neither India nor the United States has a general adequacy decision from your authorities, so we rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (and the UK Addendum) with each company in section 5, and our Data Processing Agreement includes them for the data we process for you. Copies of the clauses are available on request.
7. How long we keep it
We keep your account and the work you produce with it for as long as your subscription is active, and for 30 days after it lapses. If you do not resubscribe within that window, your reports and your market reports are deleted, along with the files they point at and our record of what you used. Your login and your saved brands stay, so coming back gives you a working account rather than a new one.
You do not have to wait for that, and you do not have to ask us. Settings has a Your data panel with a Delete my account control. It runs immediately: your reports and their creatives, your market reports, your clients, your share links, your uploaded files, your check-in answers and your login are removed, and it cannot be undone.
| What | Kept for |
|---|---|
| Account, reports, market reports, uploads, answers | While your subscription is active, then 30 days |
| Everything above, when you delete your account | Removed immediately |
| Copies sent to Google Gemini for a report | Expire at Google within 48 hours |
| Request counts for abuse protection (account id or IP) | Up to 90 days |
| Server logs at our hosting provider (IP, browser) | Short-lived, per Vercel’s policy |
| Consent records (terms, privacy, cookies) | While your account exists, then removed with it |
| Cookie choices of visitors without an account | 12 months |
| Demo requests | 12 months |
| Records of admin actions on your account | Kept, with your identifier removed |
| Patterns about public pages (no words, no account identifier) | Kept; they describe a public page, not you |
| Automatic backups at our hosting providers | Expire within 30 days |
Two things survive deletion, and we would rather say so than let you find out. Records of actions an administrator took on your account are kept with your identifier removed, so a deletion cannot erase the trail of decisions made about an account. The patterns we keep about public pages remain, because they describe a page anyone can visit rather than you, and they hold no words of yours and no account identifier.
8. Your rights
Wherever you live, you can ask us to: tell you what we hold about you; correct it; delete it; give you a copy to take elsewhere; stop or limit particular uses; and not be subject to a decision made only by a machine. Three of those need no request: in Settings you can download a copy of everything we hold about you, delete your account outright, and correct your name and email. For anything else, write to privacy@toniqe.com. We confirm receipt within two working days and answer within 30 days, or tell you why we need longer. We may ask you to prove it is your account. We never treat you differently for exercising a right.
9. Cookies and similar storage
We use cookies and browser storage that are strictly necessary: to sign you in and keep you signed in, and to remember your cookie choice on both toniqe.com and the app. Those cannot be switched off, because without them the product cannot tell who you are from one page to the next, or what you chose.
Everything else is optional: we measure how the product is used, through PostHog. In the European Union, the rest of the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, where the law asks for your agreement first, it stays off until you choose, and refusing is one click, the same as accepting. Elsewhere it is on unless you turn it off, which you can do below at any time. Your choice is kept on your own device, and that copy decides what runs. We also keep a record of each answer, described in section 2, so we can show what you agreed to; a change of mind is added to that record, not written over it. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal and do not ask.
You can change your mind at any time.
10. Security
Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest at our database host. Every table is protected so one account can never read another's. Administrator actions that act as a customer or change a plan require a fresh identity check each time. Secrets are held only on the production host. If a breach affects your data, we will tell you without undue delay, and within the time the law where you live requires (72 hours to the authority under the GDPR). No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we do not pretend otherwise.
11. Children
Toniqe is a business tool for people aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone younger, and we delete it if we learn we have.
12. Notices for particular places
European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland
The lawful bases are in section 3 and the transfer safeguards in section 6. You can complain to your local data protection authority at any time; we would rather you wrote to us first so we can fix it. Where the law requires a representative in the EU or UK for a company established outside them, we will name one here before serving customers there.
California and other US states (state privacy laws)
In the last twelve months we have collected the categories listed in section 2 (identifiers, commercial information about your reports, internet activity, and professional information from the application form). We do not sell personal information and do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising, so there is nothing to opt out of; we honour Global Privacy Control signals regardless. We collect no sensitive personal information. You have the rights in section 8, including the right not to be discriminated against for using them, and an authorised agent may act for you with your written permission.
India
Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, Toniqe Labs Private Limited is the data fiduciary. You may access, correct and erase your data, nominate someone to exercise your rights if you cannot, and withdraw consent as easily as you gave it. Our grievance officer is reachable at privacy@toniqe.com; if we do not resolve a grievance, you may approach the Data Protection Board of India.
Canada, Australia, Brazil and elsewhere
Your data is stored outside your country (section 6). You have the rights in section 8 and may complain to your privacy regulator (in Canada the Office of the Privacy Commissioner, in Australia the OAIC, in Brazil the ANPD).
