Privacy at ClearTerms

ClearTerms is designed to keep the main readiness workflow local. You can use the wizard, autosave answers, and export a summary without creating an account or uploading questionnaire answers.

What stays local

Wizard answers

Your readiness answers are saved in your browser's localStorage under ClearTerms keys. They are not uploaded while you use the normal checklist flow.

Markdown export

The free readiness summary is generated in your browser. The export is not sent to ClearTerms unless you separately share it.

Anonymized score sharing

The score share action copies only score, attention item count, critical item count, audit-fit label, and the public ClearTerms URL. It does not copy your answers, email, product URL, or notes.

What leaves your browser

PayPal checkout

If you choose to buy the Starter Packet, ClearTerms opens a PayPal-hosted checkout. Payment details are handled by PayPal. ClearTerms does not store card, bank, tax, or PayPal account credentials in this app.

Review requests

If you submit the premium review request form, ClearTerms sends your email, product URL, optional notes, readiness score, audit-fit label, attention item count, and critical item count to the ClearTerms lead endpoint.

Temporary lead handling

The current lead endpoint records review requests in Vercel function logs for manual follow-up. Do not submit secrets, customer personal data, credentials, or confidential legal material through the form.

No tracking by default

ClearTerms does not include ClearTerms-set cookies, analytics, advertising pixels, cross-site tracking, or account-based profiling by default. If analytics or non-essential cookies are added later, this page, the product UI, and the project memory must be updated before launch.

Deletion and control

You can clear wizard answers by using the app's reset action or clearing browser storage for this site. For review requests, deletion depends on Vercel log retention and manual handling. Avoid submitting sensitive data in the first place.

Privacy settings panel

The app footer includes a Privacy settings panel. It shows whether this browser has local ClearTerms wizard answers or locally saved fallback review requests, and it can clear those local items without touching other sites or browser data.

Legal boundary

ClearTerms is an operational readiness tool. It is not legal advice, does not guarantee compliance, and does not replace qualified counsel.
