Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 28, 2026

Mentioned is operated by Forge Built AI ("we", "us"). This policy explains what we collect and how we use it. Plain English.

What we collect

Audit input data: business name, city, state, trade. You submit these to run an audit.
Email address: if you submit one to unlock the full audit or subscribe to Pro Lite.
Audit results: we persist your generated report so you (and anyone you share the URL with) can access it later.
Standard server logs: IP address, user agent, timestamps. Used for abuse prevention and basic analytics. Retained 90 days.
Payment information: handled entirely by Stripe. We do not see or store card numbers.

How we use it

To generate your AI visibility audit and email you the report.
To send subscription-related emails (welcome, weekly re-audits, billing notifications).
To prevent abuse (rate limiting based on IP).
To improve the product (aggregate, non-personal patterns).

Who we share data with

Stripe for payment processing (Stripe's privacy policy applies to payment data).
OpenAI and Perplexity as part of running your audit (we send your business name + city to query their APIs).
Resend / AWS SES for transactional email delivery.
We do not sell your data. We do not share with advertisers.

Your rights

You can request deletion of your audit reports and email address at any time. Email nick@forgebuiltai.com.
If you are in the EU/UK, GDPR rights apply. If you are in California, CCPA rights apply.
Subscription cancellation: use the billing portal or email us.

Cookies

We use a small amount of localStorage on your browser to remember whether you have unlocked the full audit. No third-party trackers, no advertising cookies.
