Privacy Policy

Who operates Litmus

Litmus is operated by its developer. Privacy questions and data requests can be sent to adnanniloy@gmail.com.

Information we collect

• Account information supplied through Google sign-in, such as your name, email address, and profile details.
• The ideas, prompts, reports, and report metadata you create through Litmus.
• Credit balances, credit-ledger activity, selected credit packs, and payment transaction references.
• Support messages and information you choose to send when contacting the developer.
• Technical, security, diagnostic, and error information generated while operating the service.

Stripe processes payment-card details. Litmus does not receive or store your complete card number.

How private ideas work

Reports are associated with your authenticated account, are not published publicly, and are protected by owner checks when they are loaded. Other Litmus users cannot browse your ideas or reports.

Generating a report requires your idea and related report context to be processed by selected service providers, including AI, market-data, hosting, database, authentication, billing, and error-monitoring providers. Information is shared only as needed to operate, secure, and support Litmus. Litmus does not sell your idea text to other users or advertisers.

How we use information

• Authenticate your account and keep reports linked to the correct owner.
• Generate, save, display, export, and improve the reliability of your reports.
• Process credit purchases, maintain wallet records, and prevent duplicate charges.
• Investigate failures, protect the service, prevent abuse, and provide support.
• Meet legal, accounting, security, and regulatory obligations.

Legal bases

Where UK or European data-protection law applies, information is processed as needed to provide the service you request, for legitimate interests in securing and improving Litmus, to comply with legal obligations, and with consent where consent is specifically requested.

Service providers and international processing

Litmus uses providers such as Google for authentication, Stripe for payments, AI providers for report generation, market-data providers for research inputs, and infrastructure providers for hosting, databases, queues, and diagnostics. These providers may process information in other countries under their own security and data-transfer safeguards.

Storage and retention

Account, report, and wallet information is retained while needed to provide Litmus, maintain transaction records, resolve disputes, secure the service, and meet legal obligations. You can request deletion of eligible account or report data by contacting the developer. Some billing, ledger, security, or legal records may need to be retained for longer.

Litmus uses essential cookies and browser storage for authentication, security, and preserving a submission while you move through the sign-in flow.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of your personal information. You may also have the right to complain to your local data-protection regulator, including the UK Information Commissioner's Office where applicable.

Send requests to adnanniloy@gmail.com. Identity verification may be required before completing a request.

Security and children

Litmus uses reasonable technical and organisational safeguards, but no online service can guarantee absolute security. The service is not intended for children under 18.

Policy changes

This policy may be updated as Litmus, its providers, or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top of the page will be updated when material changes are published.
