Privacy Policy

This page explains what personal information Klaudius collects, how we use it, and who we share it with. We aim to keep this straightforward and to collect as little personal data as possible.

Who we are

Klaudius is operated by Cloudbot Limited, a company registered in England and Wales. Throughout this page, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to that company. “You” refers to anyone who visits our website or buys our product.

For privacy questions, contact us at hello@klaudius.dev.

What we collect

Information you give us

• Email correspondence: when you email us, we receive your email address and the contents of your message.
• Purchase information: when you buy a Klaudius licence, you provide payment information to our merchant of record (Lemon Squeezy), not directly to us. Lemon Squeezy passes us your name and email address as part of order fulfilment.

Information collected automatically

• Server logs: standard web server logs (IP address, timestamp, page accessed, user agent) are kept for 30 days for security and abuse-prevention purposes.
• Licence key validation requests: when the Klaudius CLI validates a licence key against our servers, we may record the validation request (licence key, timestamp, IP address) for fraud detection.

We do not currently set tracking cookies or use third-party analytics services on klaudius.dev.

How we use it

We use the information we collect to:

• Fulfil your order and provide support
• Validate licence keys and detect fraudulent use
• Communicate with you about your purchase, updates, and support inquiries
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal data.

Who we share it with

We share personal information only with the following processors, and only as necessary to operate the service:

• Lemon Squeezy: our merchant of record. Lemon Squeezy processes payments, handles tax calculation, and sends receipts. We share your email and billing address with Lemon Squeezy at checkout. Lemon Squeezy never shares your card details with us.
• Resend: sends transactional emails (purchase confirmations, licence-key delivery). We share your email address and the email content with Resend.
• Supabase: hosts the database where licence records are stored.
• Vercel: hosts klaudius.dev.
• Fastmail: operates our email infrastructure.
• PostHog: provides product analytics for klaudius.dev. We collect anonymous pageviews, click events, and session recordings of how visitors interact with the page. PostHog’s default masking obscures input, textarea, and password fields so keystrokes and entered values are not captured. Data is hosted in PostHog’s EU region.

How long we keep it

• Licence key records: kept for the lifetime of your licence
• Support emails: kept for 24 months from the last interaction
• Server logs: 30 days

Data you process when running Klaudius

Klaudius is installed locally and runs from your own machine. When you run it, the pipeline gathers information about businesses you’ve chosen to target — their public contact details, photos, and other publicly available data — and uses that to build websites and send outreach. This data never reaches our servers. Every credential the wizard collects is written to your local .env file, and the pipeline uses those credentials directly against each provider from your machine.

In data-protection terms, this means you are the data controller for the data you process through Klaudius. We are not a processor for that flow. If a recipient of your outreach exercises rights under UK GDPR, EU GDPR, or any equivalent regime — access, correction, deletion, objection — those requests are directed to you, not to Klaudius.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data (subject to legal retention obligations)
• Object to or restrict our processing of your data
• Receive your data in a portable format

To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@klaudius.dev.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the most recent change. Substantial changes will be communicated by email to active customers.

Complaints

If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
