Privacy Policy
Effective October 8, 2026
1. What we collect
Account data - email address, display name, password-less authentication identifiers, and (if you sign in with Google or Apple) the basic profile fields those providers share with us.
Profile data you provide - name, location, bio, headline, profession, company, social handles, links, profile photo, and similar fields you choose to fill in. You control whether to provide these and can remove them at any time from your settings.
Private profile data - birthday and email-marketing preferences are stored separately and visible only to you and our admins; other members cannot see them.
Payment data - card details are collected and stored by Stripe, Inc., our payment processor. We never see or store full card numbers; we receive only a customer ID, the last four digits, and the subscription status from Stripe.
Usage data - pages you visit, features you use, approximate location derived from your IP, browser and device metadata, and event timestamps. We use this to operate and improve the Service.
Referrals - if you arrive through someone’s affiliate link and agree to credit them, we record who referred you. That person sees your display name, the date you joined and whether you are a paying member. They never see your email address or the amount you pay. If you join the affiliate program yourself, your payouts are sent through Stripe, and Stripe (not CreateIRL) collects and holds your identity and tax details.
Content you create - posts, comments, messages, RSVPs, and reactions you submit through the Service.
2. How we use it
3. Sub-processors we share data with
- Supabase - primary database and authentication. Hosted in the United States.
- Vercel - web hosting, serverless compute, and request logging.
- Stripe - payment processing, billing, and subscription management.
- Upstash - rate-limiting and ephemeral cache.
- Google - calendar and video-meeting links for member events; OAuth sign-in (if you choose it).
- Apple - OAuth sign-in (if you choose it).
- PostHog - product analytics: which pages are viewed and how quickly they load. It does not record what you type, the text on the page, or your screen.
- Resend - sending account and event emails.
- X (Twitter) - X’s ad pixel records that you visited from one of our posts or ads on X, whether you signed up and, if you buy a membership, what it cost, so we can see which of them work. When you sign up or buy, it also receives a one-way scrambled (hashed) form of your email address - never the address itself - so X can match it to the account that saw the ad. It never follows members around the site (only the moment you join or pay is reported), never runs when your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, and in the UK, the EU and EEA, Switzerland, Brazil and Quebec runs only if you choose Accept in our cookie notice.
- Daily - live video rooms for online events, and recordings of a session when its host turns recording on.
- Cloudflare - storage and playback of video, including recordings of sessions.
- OpenAI - automated safety checks on uploaded images and video, and written summaries of recorded sessions (it receives the session’s transcript to write them).
