1. Introduction and scope
This Privacy Policy explains how OutdoorBrite handles personal information when you visit outdoorbrite.com, create an account, upload photos, generate designs, and pay for a subscription.
It applies to the OutdoorBrite website, the design tool, and the emails we send you about the service. It does not apply to third-party websites or services we link to, which have their own privacy policies. By using OutdoorBrite, you agree to the handling of your information as described here.
2. Who we are and how to reach us
OutdoorBrite is operated by Revisary LLC ("OutdoorBrite", "we", "us", "our"), a limited liability company formed in Wyoming, United States.
For privacy questions or requests, email privacy@outdoorbrite.com or use the Contact page. If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, Revisary LLC is the controller of your personal data.
3. Quick summary
If you only read one section, read this one:
- We collect your email, the photos you upload, the designs we generate, your subscription and usage data, and basic technical data.
- We use it to run your account, generate your designs, take payment, secure the product, and support you.
- We send your photo to a third-party AI provider (Google) to create your design. We do not sell your data and we do not use your photos to train our own models.
- We share data only with the providers that help us run OutdoorBrite, under contract.
- You can delete any design or your whole account at any time from your settings.
4. Personal information we collect
The information we collect depends on how you use OutdoorBrite. It falls into these categories:
- Identifiers and account data: your email address; if you sign in with Google, your name and profile photo from Google; a unique account identifier.
- Visual content you upload: photos of your yard, garden, patio, or front yard. A photo can contain personal or location detail (for example, a recognizable house or, if present, a person), so treat what you upload with that in mind.
- Designs and project data: the AI concept images we generate for you, and the style, space type, and project options you select.
- Billing data: your plan, subscription status, billing history, and the country and tax information needed to charge you. Card numbers are collected and stored by our payment processor, Stripe, and never touch our servers.
- Usage and device data: pages viewed, designs generated, credits used, dates and times of activity, and technical data such as IP address, approximate location derived from it, browser, operating system, and device type.
- Communications: messages, questions, and feedback you send us through the Contact page or by email.
5. Where your information comes from
We get personal information from three sources:
- Directly from you: when you sign up, upload photos, choose options, subscribe, or contact us.
- Automatically: through cookies and similar technologies as you use the product, which produce the usage and device data above.
- From third parties: from Google when you choose Google sign-in (your name, email, and profile photo), and from Stripe (your subscription and payment status, but not full card details).
6. How we use your information
We use personal information to:
- Generate your designs and keep them, and the photos behind them, available in your account.
- Create and run your account, sign you in by magic link or Google, and apply and meter your monthly redesign credits.
- Process payments, manage your subscription and renewals, and send receipts and billing notices.
- Operate, maintain, secure, debug, and improve the product, and develop new features.
- Detect, prevent, and respond to fraud, abuse, security incidents, and violations of our Terms.
- Send service and transactional messages about your account, plan, security, or material changes.
- Respond to your questions and provide support.
- Comply with law, tax, and accounting obligations, and enforce our agreements.
7. How AI processing of your photos works
Generating a design is the core of the product, so here is exactly what happens to your photo.
When you ask for a design, your uploaded photo and your selected options are sent to a third-party AI model provider, currently Google through its Gemini models, which processes the photo and returns the generated concept to us. The provider acts as our processor for this and handles the image under its own commitments and terms.
We do not sell your photos or designs. We do not use them to identify you or to build advertising or marketing profiles. We do not use your photos or designs to train our own AI models, and where the provider offers a setting to exclude content from training its general models, we use it.
Your photos and designs are stored privately, linked to your account, and served to you through short-lived signed links. They are not publicly accessible unless you create a share link yourself.
8. Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies for two purposes.
Essential cookies keep you signed in, keep the product secure, and remember your preferences. The product does not work without them, so they are always on.
Analytics cookies, through PostHog, help us understand how people use OutdoorBrite so we can improve it. You can block or delete non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Because tracking signals are not yet standardized, we do not currently respond to browser Do Not Track signals.
9. Legal bases for processing (EEA, UK, Switzerland)
If you are in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, we rely on these legal bases under the GDPR and UK GDPR:
- Performance of a contract: to create your account, process your photos into designs, and run your subscription, which is the service you requested.
- Legitimate interests: to secure the product, prevent abuse, understand usage, and improve OutdoorBrite, balanced against your rights and interests.
- Legal obligation: to keep tax and accounting records and to respond to lawful requests.
- Consent: where required, such as for non-essential analytics cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time, without affecting prior processing.
10. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers (processors) that help us run OutdoorBrite, under contracts that require them to protect it and use it only on our behalf:
- Hosting and infrastructure: Vercel (application hosting) and Supabase (database, authentication, and private file storage).
- AI generation: Google (Gemini models), to produce design concepts from your photos.
- Payments: Stripe, to process subscriptions and store payment methods securely.
- Email delivery: our transactional email provider, to send sign-in links and account notices.
- Product analytics: PostHog, to measure and improve how the product is used.
11. Other disclosures
We may disclose personal information outside the providers above when we reasonably believe it is necessary to: comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or government request; enforce our Terms; detect or prevent fraud, security, or technical issues; or protect the rights, property, or safety of our users, the public, or OutdoorBrite.
If OutdoorBrite is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that deal. We will require the recipient to honor this policy or give equivalent protection, and we will notify you of any change in who controls your data.
12. We do not sell or "share" your personal information
We do not sell your personal information for money, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined under California and other US state privacy laws. We have not done so in the preceding 12 months.
13. Designs you choose to make public
You can create a share link for a design. Anyone with that link can view the design and its before photo without an account, so only share it with people you trust.
You control these links. When you delete the design or your account, its share links stop working.
14. International data transfers
OutdoorBrite is operated from the United States, and we and our providers may process your information in the United States and other countries that may not offer the same level of data protection as your own.
Where the law requires it, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK Addendum, together with technical and organizational protections.
15. How long we keep your information
We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes in this policy:
- Account, photos, and designs: while your account is active. When you delete a design, we remove it and its source photo from storage. When you delete your account, we delete your personal data and your stored photos and designs, and cancel your subscription with Stripe.
- Billing and tax records: kept for the period required by tax and accounting law, even after account deletion.
- Backups and logs: cleared on a regular rolling schedule.
- Onboarding hash: after you delete your account, we keep a one-way (irreversible) hash of your email address so that, if you sign up again with the same address, you skip the welcome questions. A hash cannot be turned back into your email, name, or any other detail.
16. How we protect your information
We use encryption in transit, access controls, private storage for your photos and designs served only through short-lived signed links, and reputable infrastructure providers.
No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure. You also play a part: keep access to your email and Google account secure, since those are how you sign in. If a breach affects your personal data, we will notify you and the relevant authorities where the law requires it.
17. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of these rights over your personal information: to access it, correct it, delete it, receive a portable copy, object to or restrict certain processing, and withdraw consent.
You can delete individual designs or your entire account at any time from your settings. For any other request, email privacy@outdoorbrite.com or use the Contact page. We will respond within the time the applicable law requires, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising a right.
18. EEA, UK, and Swiss rights (GDPR)
If you are in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, and the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
Generating a landscape design is not a decision that produces legal or similarly significant effects about you. If you believe we have mishandled your data, you can lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority, though we would appreciate the chance to resolve it first.
19. US state privacy rights (California and others)
If you are a resident of California or another US state with a consumer privacy law (such as Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, or Oregon), you have rights to know and access the personal information we collect, to delete it, to correct it, and to opt out of any sale or sharing for targeted advertising. We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not use sensitive personal information for purposes that require an opt-out.
In the past 12 months we have collected the categories of identifiers, visual information, commercial information (subscription and purchase data), and internet or network activity described in section 4, and disclosed them to the service providers listed in section 10 for the business purposes in section 6.
California residents may also designate an authorized agent to make a request. To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@outdoorbrite.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting, usually by confirming control of your account email.
20. Marketing communications
We send service and transactional emails (sign-in links, billing, security, and material changes) that are part of the product and are not promotional. If we ever send marketing email, it will include a clear unsubscribe link, and opting out will not affect the service emails you need.
21. Children's privacy
OutdoorBrite is built for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13 as defined by the US Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. If you believe a minor has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
22. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the product and the law change. We will update the effective date at the top, and for material changes we will notify active users by email before the change takes effect. Your continued use after that means you accept the updated policy.
