Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 28, 2024

The short version:

We collect only what we need to run TheraRank. We don't sell your data. We don't spam you. Your content stays yours. We use industry-standard security to protect everything.

1. Who We Are

TheraRank is a content generation service for wellness practitioners. When we say "we," "us," or "TheraRank," we mean the company and team behind this service.

We're committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your data.

2. What Information We Collect

4. What We Don't Do

Let's be explicit about what we will never do with your data:

  • Sell your data: We don't sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. Ever.
  • Spam you: We only send emails that are necessary (account updates, article notifications) or that you've opted into
  • Use your content to train AI: The articles we generate for you are not used to train or improve our AI models
  • Share your business information with competitors: Your profile data stays private

We don't use advertising or tracking cookies. Your browser settings control how cookies are handled—you can disable them, but some features may not work properly.

  • All data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest
  • Passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms
  • We use secure, reputable third-party services with SOC 2 compliance
  • Access to data is restricted to essential personnel only
  • We regularly review and update our security practices

No system is 100% secure, but we work hard to protect your information. If we ever experience a data breach that affects you, we'll notify you promptly.

8. Data Retention

  • Account data: Kept while your account is active, deleted within 30 days of account deletion
