Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 31, 2026

FactoryArt ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have over your information when you use the FactoryArt multi-tenant inventory & operations platform (the "Service").

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Account Information. When you (or your company admin) create an account, we collect your name, business email, role, hashed password, and the company identifier you belong to.

1.2 Business Data. Within your tenant, the Service stores the inventory, sales, purchases, customers, suppliers, expenditures, lab tests, batches, technical entries and other operational records that you choose to enter or upload. This data belongs to your company and is isolated by tenant from other companies.

1.3 Files. Bill images and company logos that you upload are stored on Cloudinary (a third-party content-delivery service) under a folder scoped to your company_id.

1.4 Authentication Data. If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address, profile picture, and Google account ID from Google. We do not receive your Google password.

1.5 Device & Usage Data. We log standard request metadata (IP address, user agent, timestamps, endpoints accessed) for security and debugging.

1.6 Push Notification Tokens. If you opt in to web push or app notifications, we store the browser/device push subscription token so we can deliver low-stock and approval alerts.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Provide, operate, and maintain the Service.
  • Authenticate users and authorize access within their tenant.
  • Enforce subscription-tier limits and feature gates.
  • Generate invoices, PDF reports, Tally XML exports, and other tenant outputs.
  • Send transactional notifications (push, optional WhatsApp).
  • Detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents.
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your data. We share data only with the following categories of processors, and only to the extent needed to operate the Service:

  • Cloud hosting & database: Servers we operate on a cloud provider (compute and MongoDB storage).
  • Cloudinary: for storage and CDN delivery of bill / logo images.
  • Google OAuth: if you choose Google sign-in.
  • Twilio / WhatsApp: if you enable WhatsApp alerts.
  • Tally Solutions: only if your admin enables Tally HTTP push — voucher XML is sent to the Tally URL you configure.
  • Authorities, if compelled by law.

4. Data Retention

We retain tenant business data for as long as your subscription is active. After cancellation, data is retained in a soft-deleted state for 30 days, then permanently removed unless legal obligations require longer retention. You can request earlier deletion via the contact below.

5. Security

Passwords are stored as bcrypt hashes. Sessions use server-side tokens with expiry. Multi-tenant isolation is enforced at the database layer via per-request company_id scoping. All traffic is served over HTTPS. No system is 100% secure — please use a strong, unique password.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal data, withdraw consent, or lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise any of these rights, contact privacy@factoryart.com.

7. Children

The Service is intended for business use and is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

8. International Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries other than your own. We use processors that provide appropriate safeguards consistent with applicable data-protection laws.

9. Cookies & Local Storage

We use local storage to keep you signed in and to remember recent screens. We do not use third-party advertising cookies. You can clear local storage from your browser settings at any time (you will need to sign in again).

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated within the Service or by email. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision.
