Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 28, 2026

Welcome to GenConvert. We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website, API, and SaaS platform (collectively, the "Service").

By using GenConvert, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1 Information We Collect

We collect two primary categories of data: Merchant Account Data (from you, our user) and Website Visitor Data (from your store's visitors, processed on your behalf).

A. Merchant Account Data

When you register, subscribe, or use our Service, we may collect:

  • Identity & Contact Data: Name, email address, company name, and billing address.
  • Account & Technical Data: Passwords (hashed), API keys, integration tokens (e.g., Shopify, Klaviyo), and IP addresses used to access the GenConvert dashboard.
  • Billing Data: Payment information is processed securely by our third-party payment processors (e.g., Paddle, Polar). We do not store full credit card numbers on our servers.

B. Website Visitor Data (Processed on Your Behalf)

To provide AI-powered popup generation, behavioral targeting, and analytics, our embed script collects specific technical and behavioral data from your website visitors. This includes:

  • Technical & Device Data: Browser type (via User-Agent), device type (Mobile, Tablet, or Desktop based on screen width), and approximate country (via browser language).
  • Behavioral & Interaction Data: Scroll depth, time on page, exit intent signals (detected via mouse movements or touch gestures), pages viewed during a session, and popup interactions (views, clicks, dismissals, conversions).
  • E-commerce & Contextual Data: Shopping cart status and total value (read directly from Shopify cart objects or your store's DOM), product metadata and pricing (extracted from page schema), referrer URL, and UTM parameters.
  • Identifiers & Local Storage: We use Local Storage and Session Storage (functioning similarly to cookies) to generate anonymous visitor IDs, track session history, remember user preferences, and prevent popup fatigue.

Note: Under GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, you (the merchant) are the Data Controller of this visitor data, and GenConvert acts strictly as the Data Processor.

2 How We Use Your Information

We use the collected data for the following purposes:

  • Behavioral Segmentation & AI Triggering: We analyze visitor behavior to dynamically categorize them into segments (e.g., "first-time visitor," "high-value customer," "cart abandoner"). This allows our AI to trigger the most effective popup at the exact right moment.
  • Service Delivery: To generate, cache, and display personalized popups, and to integrate with your e-commerce and email marketing platforms.
  • Billing & Usage Tracking: To accurately track pageviews and form submissions. Our ClickHouse analytics database acts as the immutable source of truth for calculating your monthly plan usage and billing.
  • AI Model Guardrails: To ensure our Large Language Models (LLMs) generate copy strictly based on your configured brand tone and approved offers, without hallucinating unauthorized discounts.
  • Communication: To send you service updates, usage warnings (e.g., at 75% of your plan limit), and technical support responses.

4 Data Sharing and Third-Party Subprocessors

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal data or your visitors' data to third parties. We only share data with trusted subprocessors who assist us in operating the Service, all of whom are bound by strict Data Processing Agreements (DPAs).

Our current subprocessors include:

Hosting & Infrastructure

AWS, Vercel

Database & Caching

MongoDB, Upstash/Redis, ClickHouse

AI Processing

OpenAI (no model training on your data)

Payments

Paddle, Polar

5 International Data Transfers

GenConvert is headquartered in Finland. However, some of our subprocessors (e.g., AWS, OpenAI) may process data in countries outside the EEA, such as the United States. When we transfer data internationally, we ensure it is protected by relying on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or by verifying that the destination country has an adequacy decision.

6 Data Retention

We retain your data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy:

  • Active Accounts: Merchant account data and visitor analytics are retained as long as your account is active.
  • Cancelled Accounts: Upon cancellation, your campaign configurations and historical analytics data are retained for 30 days to allow for data export or account reactivation. After 30 days, this data is permanently and securely deleted from our systems.
  • Visitor Local Storage: Data stored in the visitor's Local Storage (e.g., popup history, visitor ID) is automatically cleared when the visitor clears their browser cache, or via our script if they revoke consent.

7 Security Measures

We implement robust technical and organizational measures to protect your data, aligned with our 3-tier architecture:

  • Encryption: All data in transit is encrypted via HTTPS/TLS.
  • Access Controls: Strict role-based access controls ensure only authorized GenConvert personnel can access systems.
  • Architecture Security: We use distributed Redis locks to prevent concurrent processing errors, and ClickHouse's immutable ledger ensures billing and event data cannot be tampered with.
