Privacy Policy
Last Updated: May 28, 2026
1. Introduction
At ViceForge, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any personal data we collect. This Privacy Policy details the types of information we collect, how we process and store it, and your rights under global data protection frameworks, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
2. Data We Collect
We collect information you provide directly and data generated automatically during your session:
- Transaction and Email Data: When upgrading to a premium pass or subscription, Stripe collects your billing details, name, and email address to process payments. ViceForge stores transaction status tokens and your email to manage your premium tool credentials.
- Builder Configurations: Setting variables inside the visual builder (like server rules, titles, and layout filters) are processed in your local browser session to compile the ZIP resources. These parameters are not saved on our servers.
- Technical and Analytics Data: We may collect browser details, IP addresses, reference pages, and site interaction speeds to optimize the canvas previewer interface and monitor performance.
- Cookies: We use local storage and cookies to retain preferences (like your active builder templates) and check payment tokens. Refer to our Cookie Policy for details.
3. How We Use Your Data
We process your personal information for the following legitimate purposes:
- To compile, build, and deliver your customized ZIP assets.
- To verify purchases and activate premium layouts, typography uploads, and watermark-free exports.
- To monitor, analyze, and optimize website stability, loading speeds, and visual canvas performance.
- To provide technical support and handle billing inquiries.
4. Data Sharing and Third-Party Processors
We do not sell, rent, or distribute your email or billing details to third parties. We share data only with trusted service providers necessary to operate the Services. Specifically, payments are processed by **Stripe Inc.**, and billing information is collected directly by Stripe under their own Privacy Policy. We do not store or see your raw credit card numbers.
5. Data Retention & Asset Compilation Security
All visual loading screens are built dynamically on the client side using browser libraries (such as JSZip). This means your logos, community descriptions, rules, and configurations remain entirely in your browser and are not uploaded to our servers. Any technical compilation states or session IDs are retained only for the duration of the build session and deleted immediately. Email records and Stripe subscription states are retained as long as your premium license remains active.
6. Your Rights (GDPR & CCPA Compliant)
Depending on your jurisdiction, you hold the following rights regarding your data:
- Access: The right to request copies of the personal data we hold.
- Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): The right to request that we delete your email records and subscription histories (note: this will deactivate premium license access).
- Correction: The right to request correction of inaccurate database fields.
- Opt-Out of Tracking: The right to refuse non-essential cookies. You can manage this at any time using our Cookie Consent Banner or browser configurations.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contact@vice-forge.com. We respond to all requests within 30 days.
7. Policy Modifications
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will indicate the date of the latest update at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Website after updates are posted constitutes acceptance of the modified Privacy Policy.
