1.Definitions
- Service.
- the StationScope website, applications, and recommendation tools (Tandem mode and Solo mode).
- Personal Information.
- information that identifies, relates to, or could reasonably be linked with you, including email address and chat content you submit.
- Tandem Group.
- a set of two to five users using Tandem mode jointly to produce a shared neighborhood recommendation.
2.Information StationScope Collects
- Tandem Mode. StationScope collects your email address, chat responses (housing preferences, location constraints, lifestyle factors), city and neighborhood preferences, and group composition (number of members, relationship type, bedroom count, and optionally MBTI personality types). When you participate in a Tandem chat, StationScope also records your IP address and standard browser and device information alongside the saved transcript.
- Solo Mode. StationScope collects the address you enter for station search, the resolved map coordinates, any chat preferences you submit during the session, the resulting chat transcript, and your IP address.
- Payment Information. Card data is handled directly by Stripe. StationScope does not view or store card information.
3.How StationScope Uses Information
- To generate neighborhood recommendations through large language models (currently the Anthropic Claude API).
- To deliver recommendation reports by email (through Resend).
- To store group data and chat transcripts on Supabase, so that multi-member Tandem flows can associate members with the same group and so that Solo and Tandem chats can be resumed.
- To measure aggregate website usage through Google Analytics.
4.Third-Party Processors
StationScope engages the following third-party processors.
- Anthropic.
- recommendation generation; receives chat content and group context.
- Resend.
- email delivery; receives your email address and the rendered report.
- Stripe.
- payment processing; handles card data. StationScope receives only a session identifier.
- Supabase.
- data hosting; stores StationScope's group, recommendation, and chat transcript records.
- Google Analytics.
- website usage analytics; receives your IP address, the pages you visit, and standard browser and device information, and sets cookies. StationScope uses this only to understand aggregate site usage.
- United States Census Bureau (ACS5).
- public demographic data; StationScope queries the Bureau's public API. No user data is transmitted to the Bureau.
5.What StationScope Does Not Do
- StationScope does not operate advertising trackers and does not use your information for advertising or ad targeting. StationScope uses Google Analytics solely to measure aggregate website usage (see Third-Party Processors).
- StationScope does not share your individual chat content with other members of your Tandem Group beyond what the final recommendation report presents. The report aggregates each member's preferences into compromise findings rather than republishing them verbatim, and anonymizes content where reasonably practicable.
6.Data Retention
Tandem Group data and chat transcripts are retained while the group is active and for a reasonable period thereafter in order to support follow-up inquiries. To request deletion, contact stationscope@gmail.com.
Solo session data, including the chat transcript, the address you enter, the resolved map coordinates, and your IP address, is stored on Supabase. It is retained for a reasonable period to operate the session, allow you to resume a chat, and improve the service. To request deletion, use the contact address above.
7.Your Rights
Subject to applicable law, you may exercise certain rights over your Personal Information by contacting StationScope at the address in Section 9. You have the right of access, meaning you may request a copy of the Personal Information StationScope holds about you, and the right of deletion, meaning you may request that StationScope delete the Personal Information it holds about you, subject to legitimate retention obligations.
8.Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under the age of 16, and StationScope does not knowingly collect Personal Information from such children. If you believe a child has provided StationScope with Personal Information, please contact StationScope so that it may be deleted.
