INTERNATIONAL PILOT · OPERATOR DETAILS UPDATED · LEGAL DRAFT

Privacy Notice.

Pre-launch draft, not final legal advice. The operator name and contact details are provided below. Before external invitations, confirm the operator's legal status and c/o address, establish retention periods, and review international data processing and service-provider agreements.

Who operates the pilot and how to get in touch?

Controller / named operator: Henok Abayneh
Brand: IDEA/BUILDER
Postal contact: Henok Abayneh, IDEA/BUILDER c/o GAM, Pappelallee 64, 10437 Berlin, Deutschland
Privacy and general contact: info@idea-builder.tech

Contact for GDPR requests: info@idea-builder.tech. If the actual controller is a registered legal entity rather than the person named above, its full legal identity and the authorized representative must be updated before external launch.

Information we process

Account details (email, login provider and profile), original ideas, video uploads, linked Builder Projects, reactions, comments, saved items, moderation requests and technical service logs. Authentication is necessary to use the pilot. Uploading a video is optional; the content you publish is visible to other members.

Why we use it

To provide accounts, publish and display content, connect ideas to independent Builder Projects, prevent abuse, address support requests, measure pilot reliability and meet applicable legal obligations. These uses may rely on performance of the pilot agreement, legitimate interests, or legal obligations as applicable. Optional product-analytics events require your separate opt-in.

Optional product analytics

If you opt in, we record a small list of idea views, BUILD+ clicks, Builder starts and publications, plus playback/upload errors. Events contain your account identifier, referenced idea/project identifiers and timestamp. We do not use third-party advertising analytics or fingerprinting. Opt-out stops new optional events, and you can request removal of existing records.

Service providers and international access

Supabase hosts account and application data, Mux handles video delivery, and Vercel hosts the application. Their services may involve access from or processing in other countries depending on configuration. Appropriate processing agreements, transfer safeguards, subprocessors and retention settings must be reviewed before external launch.

Video visibility and retention

The feed requires login, but some original media use public playback or storage URLs that may remain accessible to anyone holding the link. This is not a fully private video vault. During the pilot, creators may request content removal or account closure; at pilot end, creators may indicate whether content should remain. Removal requests are reviewed, and linked Builder Projects may require special handling.

Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or objection. You may change optional analytics at any time via the pilot privacy controls. See Your data & requests or email info@idea-builder.tech. You may contact a supervisory authority.

Local storage

We use necessary authentication/session storage. The optional first-party analytics system does not create its own advertising cookies. Browser and infrastructure logs may still be processed by service providers.

Changes

The pilot may change during testing; substantial changes will be communicated. This draft still requires verification of the legal circumstances of the operator and a retention schedule before launch.
