Privacy.
Plain English: we collect the minimum we need to draft good posts for you, store it securely, never sell it, and let you erase it.
What we collect
- X profile and posts. When you connect X via OAuth, we read your handle, follower counts, recent tweets, and analytics on tweets we post. The tweets are used to build your voice profile.
- Account info. Phone number (for the iMessage layer), email (optional), name, timezone.
- Payment info. Subscription state. Card details are handled by Stripe. We never see or store them.
- Conversations. Drafts, edits, feedback, and chat messages between you and Penwell. We use these to train your voice profile and improve the product.
- Usage analytics.Anonymous pageviews and events via PostHog so we can see what works and what doesn't.
How we use it
- Drafting posts and replies in your voice.
- Coaching you on cadence, pillars, and quality.
- Billing and account operations.
- Improving the product (in aggregate; never sold).
How we store it
Data is hosted on Supabase (eu-west-1). X OAuth tokens are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. Application traffic uses TLS in transit.
Who else sees it (sub-processors)
We use a small number of trusted services. They see only what they need to function:

- X (Twitter). Receives posts we publish on your behalf.
- Supabase. Primary database and auth.
- Vercel. Application hosting.
- PostHog. Product analytics.
- Stripe. Subscription billing. Card details stay with Stripe; we never see them.

We do not sell your data.
