Privacy Policy
Effective August 12, 2026
1. Scope
Hustle Predicts is operated by Anderson Westfield (“Hustle Predicts,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our iOS app, website, account, subscriptions, support, and related services (collectively, the “Service”). We do not sell personal information and do not use personal information for cross-app or cross-site advertising tracking.
2. Information we collect
Account information. If you create an account, we process identifiers and contact information such as your user ID, name, email address, profile image, sign-in provider, and authentication records. Our authentication provider processes your credentials; we do not receive your Apple or Google password.
Purchases and entitlements. We process subscription status, product, trial status, renewal or expiration date, and transaction identifiers so we can unlock Premium, restore access, prevent fraud, and provide support. Apple processes iOS payments and Stripe processes payments made on the website. We do not receive full payment-card numbers from either provider.
Activity and preferences. We process app interactions needed to provide the Service, including saved markets, selected interests, AI usage and remaining credits, and technical request data. Saved markets and onboarding interests are stored locally on your device unless a feature expressly says otherwise.
Research requests and user content. When you use search or AI research, we process the search terms, selected question and current context, and any optional focus text you enter to return the requested results. These requests may be associated with your signed-in account and are not used for advertising tracking.
Website analytics. On the website, we use a first-party random visitor identifier stored in the hp_vid cookie for up to one year. We record that identifier, day, page path, and referring site domain to understand aggregate use. We do not use third-party advertising cookies. Our infrastructure providers may also process IP address, device/browser type, request timestamps, and security logs when serving the Service.
Website community content. The website may let you submit a display handle, message text, optional position tag, reactions, and timestamp. Those posts are public. The iOS app submitted to the App Store does not provide community posting.
Support communications. If you contact us, we process your email address and the contents and attachments of your message so we can respond and keep a support record.
3. How we use information
We use information to:
- authenticate users and operate requested app and website features;
- provide, verify, restore, and support subscriptions;
- personalize locally saved views and provide AI-assisted research;
- maintain security, prevent abuse and fraud, and debug outages;
- measure aggregate website use and improve the Service;
- respond to support, privacy, and legal requests; and
- comply with law and enforce our Terms of Service.
4. AI features and market data
Before the iOS app sends an AI request, it asks for your permission to share the selected source, market question, current market data, and any optional focus text you enter with our AI and cloud service providers. You can withdraw that permission in the app's Account screen; the app will ask again before another request. We do not intentionally include your name, email, user ID, purchase history, or other account information in an AI prompt. AI results may rely on live web-search sources. Market questions and probability data are obtained from public third-party market-data sources. Their own services are governed by their separate policies.
5. Service providers and disclosures
We disclose information only as needed to vendors that operate the Service: Clerk (authentication and accounts), Apple (Sign in with Apple and App Store purchases), Stripe (website payments), Vercel (hosting, security, and AI routing), Convex (application database), Google and other configured model providers (AI generation and web-search tools), and email providers used for support. We use contractual and other measures designed to require providers that receive personal information from us to process it only for the purposes described above and provide the same or equivalent protection required by this policy and applicable law.
We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect users or the Service, in connection with a business transfer, or with your direction or consent. We do not sell or rent personal information.
6. Retention
We keep account and entitlement records while your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. After account deletion, we delete or de-identify active account records promptly, subject to short-lived backups, security logs, transaction records, fraud-prevention records, and records we must retain for legal, tax, accounting, or dispute purposes. AI credit records expire or are removed with the account. Website community threads retain a limited rolling history. Support messages are retained only as long as reasonably necessary to resolve the request and maintain an appropriate record.
7. Your choices and account deletion
You can clear locally stored app preferences by deleting the app. You can initiate permanent account deletion from Accountin the iOS app or from the website's account page. Deletion removes the account and associated Service records from our active systems. An App Store subscription is managed by Apple and does not automatically stop when you delete a Hustle Predicts account; cancel it first in Apple subscription settings. Website subscriptions are canceled as part of deletion.
If you used Sign in with Apple, revoke the app's Apple authorization after deletion in iPhone or iPad Settings → [your name] → Sign in with Apple → Hustle Predicts → Delete. Apple also provides official instructions for managing Sign in with Apple access.
You may also request access, correction, deletion, or other rights available where you live by emailing iamhustlecartel@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
8. Security and international processing
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no system is completely secure. The Service and its providers may process information in the United States and other countries, which may have different data-protection laws from your home jurisdiction.
9. Children
The Service is intended only for people age 18 or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided information to the Service.
10. Changes and contact
We may update this policy as the Service changes. We will post the revised policy here and update the effective date. For privacy questions or requests, contact Anderson Westfield by email at iamhustlecartel@gmail.com.
