Privacy Policy

Layerpaint is designed to respect your data. This page explains what we collect, why, and who gets to see it.

The short version

• Your 3D models never leave your browser. All painting, welding, and export happens client-side. We can't see your STL, OBJ, 3MF, or .layerpaint files.
• We don't sell your data. Ever. Not to advertisers, not to AI training sets, not to anyone.
• We store only what we need to run your account and process your payment.

What we collect

• Account info — your email address (used for the receipt and to recover your activation link if you contact support). No passwords.
• Purchase info — which product you bought and when. Payment details (card number, etc.) are handled entirely by Stripe; we never see or store them.
• Anonymous usage analytics — via Microsoft Clarity, we collect page views, click/scroll heatmaps, and anonymized session recordings of how the UI is used so we can tell which parts of the app work and which confuse people. Recordings mask form inputs by default and never include your 3D models, paint state, or exported files.
• Advertising conversion tag — if you arrive via a Google ad, a conversion tag fires to let us know the ad worked. We don't pass your identity to Google; we record an anonymous conversion event.

What we don't collect

• Your 3D models. They never touch our servers.
• Your paint state, palette choices, or exported files.
• Anything from your filesystem beyond the specific files you drag into the painter — and those stay in the browser.

Who we share with

• Stripe — processes your payment. See stripe.com/privacy.
• Supabase — stores your account and purchase record. See supabase.com/privacy.
• Microsoft Clarity — anonymous product analytics, heatmaps, and session replay. See Microsoft's privacy statement.
• Vercel — hosts the site and provides anonymous traffic analytics. See vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy.
• Google — if you click through from a Google ad, a conversion tag fires to record the purchase. See Google's privacy policy.
• Ahrefs — anonymous, cookieless web analytics. See ahrefs.com/privacy.

We do not share your email with third parties for marketing. You will only hear from us about your purchase or a major product update.

Cookies

We use a small number of essential cookies: one for your logged-in session, one to remember your preferences in the painter. Microsoft Clarity and Google may set their own cookies as described above.

Your rights

You can request a copy of what we hold on you, or ask us to delete your account and associated data, by emailing ashley@layerpaint.app. We will respond within 30 days.

If you're in the EU or UK, this falls under GDPR. If you're in California, CCPA applies. Both allow you to request access, correction, and deletion.

Changes

If this policy changes materially, we'll notify registered users by email before the change takes effect.
