Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026 · Effective immediately upon download or use of HoneAI.

The short version: We collect only what we need to run HoneAI. We never sell your data. We never use your data to train AI models. Your client data belongs to you.

1. Who We Are

HoneAI ("we", "us", "our") is an AI-powered freelance business assistant application available on iOS. When we refer to "HoneAI", we mean the app and associated services operated at honeai.app.

For questions about this policy, contact us at: privacy@honeai.app

2. What Information We Collect

2.1 Account Information

When you create an account, we collect:

Email address
Password (stored as a secure hash — we never store your plaintext password)
Name (if provided via Sign in with Apple or entered manually)

2.2 Client Data You Enter

HoneAI stores the business information you choose to enter, including:

Client names, companies, email addresses, and phone numbers
Agreed rates, industries, and notes
Communication history you log (proposals, invoices, follow-ups, email summaries, SMS summaries)
Payment records and amounts you track
Scheduled tasks and reminders

This data is associated with your account and stored in our secure database. You own this data. We do not access, read, or analyse it except as necessary to provide the HoneAI service to you.

2.3 Content You Submit for AI Processing

When you use AI features (generating proposals, analysing emails, generating insights), the relevant text is sent to Anthropic's Claude API for processing. This includes:

Email and SMS threads you paste for analysis
Client context (name, industry, rate, notes) used to generate documents
Your interaction history used to generate insights

Anthropic processes this content to generate responses. Neither HoneAI nor Anthropic uses this content to train AI models. See Anthropic's privacy policy at anthropic.com/legal/privacy.

2.4 Payment Handle Information

If you use payment features, you may enter your Venmo username, Cash App cashtag, PayPal username, or Zelle contact. This information is stored in your account to generate payment requests. We do not process payments — all transactions occur directly between you and your clients through third-party payment services.

2.5 Security Data

PIN lock: Your 6-digit PIN is hashed using SHA-256 locally on your device. The hash is stored on your device only. Your PIN is never transmitted to our servers.
2FA: If you enable two-factor authentication, TOTP secrets are managed by Supabase (our authentication provider) in accordance with their security practices.

2.6 Usage Data

We may collect basic, anonymised usage analytics to understand how features are used and improve the product. This does not include the content of your client data or AI-generated outputs.

2.7 Referral Data

If you use the referral system, we store which account referred which, the codes used, and rewards issued. This is used solely to apply subscription benefits.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

Provide, operate, and improve the HoneAI service
Authenticate your identity and maintain your account
Process AI generation requests on your behalf
Apply subscription entitlements and referral rewards
Send transactional emails (account confirmation, password reset)
Respond to support requests
Comply with legal obligations

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or sale to third parties.

4. How We Share Your Information

We share your data only with the following service providers, solely as necessary to operate HoneAI:

Supabase — database, authentication, and file storage. Data is stored in the United States and encrypted at rest using AES-256. Supabase Privacy Policy
Anthropic — AI processing. Content submitted for AI generation is processed by Claude. Not used for training. Anthropic Privacy Policy
Vercel — serverless API hosting. Processes requests but does not store your client data. Vercel Privacy Policy
Apple — App Store distribution and in-app purchases. Apple Privacy Policy
RevenueCat — subscription management. Manages your subscription entitlements. RevenueCat Privacy Policy

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with any other third parties.

5. Data Retention

We retain your account and client data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or financial compliance purposes (e.g. records of transactions).

You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting privacy@honeai.app.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Access: Request a copy of the data we hold about you
Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data
Deletion: Request deletion of your account and associated data
Portability: Request your data in a machine-readable format
Objection: Object to certain processing of your data

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@honeai.app. We will respond within 30 days.

7. Children's Privacy

HoneAI is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the EU). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately.

8. International Data Transfers

HoneAI is operated from the United States. If you are accessing HoneAI from outside the United States, your data will be transferred to and processed in the United States. By using HoneAI, you consent to this transfer.

9. Security

We take security seriously and implement multiple layers of protection:

AES-256 encryption at rest for all stored data
TLS encryption for all data in transit
Row-level security ensuring users can only access their own data
Optional two-factor authentication (TOTP)
App lock with biometric and PIN support
Server-side AI prompt protection

Despite these measures, no system is completely secure. We encourage you to use a strong password and enable 2FA.

10. Third-Party Links and Services

HoneAI allows you to generate payment links for third-party services (Venmo, Cash App, PayPal, Zelle). When you or your clients use these links, you are subject to those services' own privacy policies and terms. HoneAI is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party payment services.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy at honeai.app/privacy and, where appropriate, sending an email notification. Your continued use of HoneAI after changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
