Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how adpt collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use our website, waitlist, alerts, and opportunity monitoring tools. adpt is designed to help users discover scholarships, fellowships, grants, accelerators, and similar opportunities quickly and with clear verification.

Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly, including your email address, profile details, opportunity preferences, alert settings, and any information you submit when joining the waitlist or contacting us. We also collect technical and usage information such as device identifiers, browser data, IP address, session data, and interactions with opportunities, saves, dismissals, and alerts.

How we use information

We use your information to authenticate your account, personalize opportunity matching, operate the alert system, improve extraction and ranking quality, maintain service security, respond to requests, and communicate product updates. We may also use aggregate operational information to understand source reliability, alert latency, and system performance.

How blog and public content works

Public blog content, landing pages, and legal pages are accessible without login. Blog content may be managed by authorized internal users through our administrative tools. Public visitors do not receive access to administrative or private account data.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers and infrastructure partners necessary to run adpt, such as Supabase for authentication and database services, email providers for transactional delivery, and hosting or observability vendors that support platform operations. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect the rights, security, and integrity of adpt and its users.

Data retention

We retain account and opportunity interaction data for as long as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and improve ranking quality over time. We may remove or anonymize certain records when they are no longer operationally necessary.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect data, but no system is completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for any activity that occurs under your account.

Your choices

You may update your profile, alert settings, and account information through the product experience when available. You may also contact us to request deletion or correction of information, subject to operational, legal, and security requirements.

Children

adpt is not intended for children under 13. If we learn that personal information has been collected from a child under 13 without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
