Privacy

This notice covers the website hearkeeper.com and the Hearkeeper waitlist. The Hearkeeper app keeps your recordings and notes on your own computer; it will come with its own privacy notice.

Who we are

Hearkeeper is made by Drangalia ehf., Reykjavík, Iceland, the controller of the personal data described here. Write to hello@hearkeeper.com about anything in this notice.

The website

• No cookies, no local storage, no analytics, no trackers, no embedded third-party content. Every file the pages load comes from hearkeeper.com itself.
• Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, necessarily processes your IP address and the details of each request (such as the page and your browser) to deliver the pages and protect them from attacks. We do not use this to identify or track you.

The waitlist

When you join the waitlist we store:

• your email address;
• the language of the page you signed up on, and which page it was (for example, the home page or a guide);
• the platform you told us you use, if you chose one;
• a share code of your own, and the code of the person who invited you, if you came from their link;
• when you signed up and confirmed.

Why: to email you when Hearkeeper is ready for you, and to decide the order of invitations (a friend who joins with your link moves you up the list). We send nothing else: no newsletter, no marketing from anyone else.

Legal basis: your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, which applies in Iceland through Act No. 90/2018). You give it by joining and confirming your address, and you can withdraw it at any time.

How long: until you leave the list, or at the latest 12 months after Hearkeeper is generally available, whichever comes first. Sign-ups that are never confirmed are deleted after 30 days.

Leaving: every email has a link to leave the waitlist. It deletes your entry at once; we do not keep a copy. You can also write to us and we will delete it for you.

Who processes it for us

• Cloudflare, Inc. hosts the website and the waitlist database.
• Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, France) sends the confirmation and invitation emails.

We never sell or share your address with anyone else. Where a provider processes data outside the European Economic Area, the transfer relies on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision.

Your rights

You can ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it, to delete it, to restrict its use or to receive it in a portable format, and you can withdraw your consent at any time. Write to hello@hearkeeper.com; we answer within a month.

If you think we handle your data wrongly, you can complain to the Icelandic Data Protection Authority, Persónuvernd (personuvernd.is), or to the authority where you live.

Changes

If this notice changes, the date at the top changes with it. If a change affects how we use your address, we will tell waitlist members by email first.
