your privacy
last updated: july 27, 2026
Doved Studio operates founderhub and controls the data described in this policy.
we built founderhub so you can meet founders in real life, not so we can collect data about you. here's exactly what we know, why we know it, and how you stay in control. no legalese walls, no surprises.
what you give us
- your account. you start anonymous. if you claim your account with Apple or Google sign-in, we store the identifier they give us so you can come back.
- your profile. your name, what you're building, your city, and any contact channels you choose to share (like your X handle). you type it, you own it, you can edit or delete it anytime.
- your city. the map works on your city. when you allow location access, we use it to show sessions and founders around you. we never sell it and never share your precise position with other users.
- your sessions and matches. tables you host or join and matches you make live on our servers so the product works.
verified mrr
if you choose to verify your revenue, you connect a read-only source (like RevenueCat). we encrypt and store the read-only key so we can recheck your revenue bracket every 45 days. we also store the verified bracket and badge status. the key cannot change your RevenueCat account, and you can revoke it or remove the badge whenever you want.
payments
Apple or Google Play bills founderhub+, depending on your device. we never see your card. our payment partner RevenueCat tells us whether your subscription is active. that's it.
analytics
we log product events (like "session created") to understand what's working and fix what isn't. analytics data lives in the EU. we don't track you across other apps or websites, and we don't show ads in founderhub.
on this website, we load Google Analytics only after you allow it. before you choose, we keep the first traffic source in memory and send nothing to Google. if you allow analytics, we store only a normalized source such as Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, or Perplexity for this browser session. we do not store the full referring address, search query, or landing-page query string. we record the page path with that normalized source so we can see which pages help you. you can stop analytics at any time through the analytics settings button.
what we never do
- we never sell your data. to anyone. ever.
- we never show your precise location to other users.
- we never post anywhere on your behalf.
- we never let anyone type their own "verified" revenue.
deleting everything
open the app → settings → danger zone → delete account. that wipes your profile, sessions, matches, and events from our systems. no email required, no retention tricks.
