PickPICKBETTA / PRIVACY
Privacy, in plain language.
How information is used across PickBetta’s website and connected research services. Updated November 14, 2026.
Account and session information
Sign-in uses Firebase Authentication. This website passes credentials to Firebase for verification, then keeps an HttpOnly, same-site session cookie for up to one hour. Passwords and refresh tokens are not stored by this website. Sign out to clear the session cookie.
Research and screenshots
Connected services process research questions, saved boards, usage counts and source-backed results. Slip X-Ray accepts JPEG/PNG files under 5 MiB; metadata is stripped before OCR. Temporary images are deleted after processing, with a 15-minute recovery purge. Unresolved OCR results remain unverified.
Payments, referrals and creators
Stripe and, for supported app purchases, the applicable store/RevenueCat process billing. PickBetta keeps provider references, subscription state, referral attribution and commission records. Full payment card details are handled by the payment provider. A referral cookie preserves an invitation code for up to 30 days; applying a code requires an authenticated eligible account.
Public and private information
Boards remain private unless you explicitly publish an evidence card. Published links can be viewed by anyone with the link until expiry or revocation; they contain the published research snapshot and source citations. Creator, investor and admin data require verified access roles.
Providers and security
Firebase supports identity and configured app services; hosting, data providers and payment processors support delivery. This website requests Montserrat from Google Fonts, which receives the network request. Authentication, quota and security records help prevent abuse. Access controls and transport protections reduce risk, but no system can eliminate it.
Retention and choices
Session cookies expire after one hour and referral cookies after 30 days. Public cards expire after 30 days unless revoked sooner. Financial records may be retained for accounting and legal obligations. Other service retention depends on the configured data store; this notice does not promise an unimplemented deletion schedule. Use account controls in the app and the support contact supplied in your account or billing receipt for access, correction or deletion requests.
Adults and updates
PickBetta is intended for adults aged 18 and over. Do not submit personal information if you are under 18. Material changes to this notice will be reflected in its update date. Your applicable privacy rights are preserved.
