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.
