Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

• Account details you provide: name, email address, password (stored hashed, never in plain text).
• If you sign in with Google, the basic profile information Google shares with us (name, email).
• Your YouTube Data API key and Groq API key, if you choose to connect them - stored encrypted, never shown in plain text after you save them.
• Gmail app passwords, if you connect a Gmail inbox for sending outreach emails - stored encrypted.
• Search history, leads you've found or saved, and outreach emails sent through the product.
• Payment information for paid plans is handled directly by Razorpay, our payment processor. We do not collect or store your card, UPI, or bank details ourselves.

2. How Leads Data Is Sourced

LeadHunt sources channel information (such as channel name, subscriber count, and any business email or Instagram handle a channel owner has published) from publicly available YouTube channel pages and the official YouTube Data API. We do not access private YouTube account data.

3. The Shared API Key Pool (Opt-In)

Free users may optionally opt in to share spare capacity on their own YouTube and/or Groq API keys with paid LeadHunt users, in exchange for nothing beyond helping the product run. This is off by default. If you opt in:

• We record your consent, the timestamp, and the exact version of the consent text you agreed to.
• Your keys may be used to serve a limited share of a paid user's search or email-draft requests - your own usage always has priority, and a portion of your daily quota is reserved so you're never blocked.
• You can opt out at any time from your account settings, which stops your keys from being used for other users immediately.

4. Cookies and Sessions

LeadHunt uses a session token (stored in your browser) to keep you logged in. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.

5. Third-Party Processors

We share limited data with the following services as needed to operate LeadHunt:

• Google / YouTube Data API - to search and retrieve public channel information, and for Google sign-in.
• Groq - to generate AI-written outreach email drafts from channel details you're viewing.
• Razorpay - to process paid subscription payments.
• Our hosting provider - to run the application and store the database.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account data, leads, and outreach history for as long as your account is active, so you can keep using the product without losing your history. If you delete your account, we delete your personal account data and encrypted keys within a reasonable time.

7. Your Rights and Account Deletion

You can request a copy of your data, correction of inaccurate data, or deletion of your account and associated data at any time by emailing amanclass872@gmail.com from your registered email address.

8. Security

Passwords are hashed, and API keys and Gmail app passwords are encrypted at rest. We use industry-standard practices to protect your data, but no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children

LeadHunt is not directed at children under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent change.
