Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 7, 2026
1. What we collect
When you create an account we collect your email address and a hashed password. If you sign in via Google we receive your name, email, and profile photo from Google's OAuth service.
When you use the editor we store the project markdown you write and any media files you upload (screen recordings, images, audio). These are stored on AWS S3 in your account and are not shared with anyone.
When you record with the Chrome extension, click events and screenshots captured during a recording session are uploaded to our servers solely to generate your project. We do not analyse or retain them beyond that purpose.
We collect standard server logs (IP address, browser, pages visited) for security and debugging. These are retained for 30 days.
2. How we use your data
We use your email to send transactional messages: account verification, password reset, and (if you opt in) product updates. We do not sell your data to third parties. We do not show ads.
Rendered video files are stored on S3 and accessible via a private URL. They are not indexed or made publicly discoverable by SlickVid.
3. Third-party services
We use the following sub-processors to operate the service:
- Amazon Web Services - file storage (S3), video rendering (Lambda), transactional email (SES)
- Google - optional OAuth sign-in
- Pusher - real-time render progress notifications
- Stripe - payment processing for Pro subscriptions; we never see or store your card number
Each provider processes data under their own privacy policies and data processing agreements with us.
4. Cookies
We use a single session cookie to keep you logged in. No tracking or advertising cookies are set. The theme preference (dark/light) is stored in localStorage, not a cookie.
5. Data retention and deletion
Your projects, uploaded media, and account data are retained for as long as your account is active. You can delete individual projects at any time from the editor. To delete your account and all associated data, email us from your registered address at our contact page with the subject "Delete my account". We will action it within 5 business days.
6. Security
Passwords are hashed with bcrypt. All traffic is served over HTTPS. S3 assets are accessed via signed URLs. We do not store payment card details.
7. Your rights
Depending on where you live you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, or to object to certain processing. To make a request, use our contact page.
8. Changes to this policy
If we make material changes we will update the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you by email.
