Draft

Privacy

Draft placeholder. Legal review required before commercial launch.
This text was written by an engineer to describe intended behaviour. It has not been reviewed by a qualified lawyer, it is not a contract, and it must not be relied upon. It exists so the structure is in place and the gap is visible rather than hidden.

What is collected today

This deployment has no backend and no database.

The company profile you confirm stays in your browser. It is held in this browser's local storage, keyed on your company domain, so a second check of the same company does not ask you the same question twice. It is never transmitted. Clearing your browser storage deletes it.

The company domain you paste is sent to analytics as an event property. The domain only, so AreaIQ can count how many distinct companies have been checked. It is not published anywhere, and it is only sent if you accepted analytics on the consent banner.

No email address is ever sent to analytics. Every event property is checked before it is sent and anything that looks like an address is replaced.

Forms transmit only when you submit them. Turning on a radar sends your email address, your company domain, your confirmed profile and your chosen frequency to a Google Apps Script that writes one row to a private Google Sheet, and emails a notification to AreaIQ. Relevance feedback sends the signal, the company domain and the score, and asks for no email address. Corrections and missing-source submissions send what you typed into them.

What will be collected

Once email delivery exists: which developments you open, so the brief can be made useful. Analytics events are listed in the methodology.
