Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026
At Pantova, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our platform.
1. Information We Collect
Information You Provide
We collect information you provide directly to us, including:
- Account information (name, email, password)
- Profile information (bio, avatar, social links)
- Payment information (processed securely through Stripe)
- Content you create (offers, memberships, pages)
- Communications with us (support requests, feedback)
Automatically Collected Information
When you use Pantova, we automatically collect certain information, including:
- Device and browser information (type, version, operating system)
- IP address
- Pages visited and actions taken on the platform
- Error and performance data (collected via Sentry in production at a 10% sample rate for reliability monitoring)
We do not use third-party advertising trackers, retargeting pixels, or behavioral advertising tools.
Your Location
When you search for a pro on our homepage, your browser may ask whether Pantova can use your location. If you allow it, your device's coordinates are sent to BigDataCloud, a reverse-geocoding service, to turn them into a city name such as "Atlanta, GA". That city is used only in your browser, to show pros near you first. We do not store your coordinates, and we never share your location with pros. If you decline, nothing is sent and you can type a city or ZIP code instead.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve our services
- Process transactions and send related information
- Send you technical notices and support messages
- Respond to your comments and questions
- Analyze usage patterns to improve user experience
- Protect against fraudulent or illegal activity
3. Information Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:
- With service providers who assist in our operations (see Section 4 below)
- To comply with legal obligations
- To protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property
- In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
4. Service Providers
We work with the following service providers to operate the platform:
- Stripe — Payment processing. Stripe handles all payment card data and is PCI-DSS compliant. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.
- Supabase — Database, authentication, and file storage (hosted on AWS infrastructure).
- Vercel — Hosting, CDN, and edge computing.
- Sentry — Error monitoring in production only, used to identify and fix bugs.
- Resend — Sends account and booking emails, such as sign-in links, confirmations and receipts.
- Loops — Sends occasional updates to people who joined our waitlist, who can unsubscribe at any time.
- BigDataCloud — Turns your device's location into a city name, only if you allow location on our homepage (see "Your Location" above).
We do not sell personal information. We do not share data with advertising networks.
5. Cookies and Local Storage
We use a minimal set of cookies and local storage for essential platform functionality:
- Authentication session cookie (Supabase) — Essential for keeping you signed in. This is a first-party, session-based cookie.
- Beta access (cookie) — Records that you entered a valid beta password, so you are not asked again. Set by us, not readable by scripts on the page.
- Theme preference (local storage) — A copy of your light/dark choice, kept so the page does not flash the wrong colour while loading. The choice itself is saved to your account.
- Page claim (cookie) — Set when you press Publish on the page builder, so your page can be built when you open the confirmation email. Set by us, not readable by scripts on the page, and removed once your page is built (or after seven days).
- Customer access (cookie) — Remembers for up to an hour that your account can open customer pages such as My bookings, so we do not check on every page. Set by us, not readable by scripts on the page.
- Page builder draft (local storage) — What you have typed into the page builder, so a reload does not lose it. Removed once your page is built, and after seven days.
- Onboarding draft (local storage) — If you start setting up a page before creating an account, your answers are held in your browser so they are not lost. They are saved to your account when you sign up, and discarded after seven days if you do not.
- Visit identifier (local storage) — A random string with no name or email attached, used to count a visit as one visit rather than several. Internal use only.
We do not use third-party tracking cookies. No cookie consent banner is required as we do not employ advertising or non-essential tracking cookies. For full details, see our Cookie Policy.
6. Data Retention
We retain your information according to the following schedule:
- Active accounts — Your data is retained for as long as your account remains active.
- Account deletion — Upon request, your personal data is deleted or anonymized within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (e.g., tax records, transaction histories).
- Analytics data — Aggregated and anonymized within 90 days of collection.
- Error monitoring data (Sentry) — Automatically purged after 90 days.
- Payment records — Retained by Stripe in accordance with Stripe's retention policies.
7. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
