Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 12, 2026

1. Introduction

Vixie ("we", "our", or "us") is operated by Vectai Inc. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our platform and services, including our web application, public Print Studio, and integrations with third-party services.

2. Information We Collect

  • Account information: name, email address, and password when you create an account.
  • Business information: business name, event details, product configurations, and pricing you provide during setup.
  • Customer order data: photos uploaded by your customers, order details, and optional contact information (name, email, phone) collected during the ordering process.
  • Payment information: we do not store payment card details. Payments are processed by third-party providers (Stripe, PayPal, Square) subject to their own privacy policies.
  • Third-party integrations: when you connect Shopify or payment providers, we receive authentication tokens and basic profile data necessary to provide our services.
  • Usage data: information about how you interact with our application, including pages visited and features used. We collect this using PostHog analytics. We do not use third-party advertising trackers.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:
  • Provide, maintain, and improve our services.
  • Process and manage photo magnet orders, including print queue management.
  • Facilitate payments through connected payment providers.
  • Sync order status with connected platforms (e.g., Shopify).
  • Send notifications related to your account and orders.
  • Respond to support requests.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:
  • Service providers that help us operate our platform, including:
    • Cloud application hosting and managed database services
    • File storage and CDN/edge security via Cloudflare (incl. Cloudflare R2)
    • Email delivery via Resend
    • Product analytics via PostHog (used to understand feature usage; not used for advertising)
  • Payment processors (Stripe, PayPal, Square) to process transactions you initiate.
  • Third-party platforms you have explicitly connected (e.g., Shopify) to sync orders and fulfillment.
  • Legal authorities when required by law.

5. Photo Data

Photos uploaded through our platform (via QR code ordering or Shopify personalization) are stored securely using Cloudflare R2. Photos are used solely to create photo magnet orders and print sheets. We do not use uploaded photos for training, advertising, or any purpose unrelated to your order. Photos from the public Print Studio are processed in your browser and are not uploaded to our servers.

6. Shopify Integration

When you connect your Shopify store, we receive order data through Shopify's APIs and webhooks, including the customer's name, email address, and phone number associated with an order. We use this data solely to create, process, and sync your photo magnet orders. We request only the customer data fields necessary to provide this service and do not access customer addresses or payment details through Shopify. You can disconnect the integration at any time, and uninstalling the app stops all further data access.

7. Data Security

We use encryption of data in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest, secure token storage for third-party integrations, and access controls. Our application is deployed on infrastructure with built-in DDoS protection and edge security.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy:
  • Account and business information is retained while your account is active.
  • Customer order data (contact details and uploaded photos tied to an order) is retained while your account is active and is deleted when you uninstall the app, delete the associated order, or request deletion.
  • When you uninstall our Shopify app, we delete or anonymize the merchant's customer personal data we hold within 30 days, in line with Shopify's data protection requirements.

You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us at hello@vixie.app, and we will action it within 30 days.

9. Cookies and Local Storage

Our application uses essential cookies for authentication and session management. The public Print Studio uses browser local storage to save your preferences (paper size, magnet size settings, edge text). We do not use third-party tracking cookies.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under laws such as the GDPR (EU/UK) and CCPA (California), including the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You may disconnect any third-party integration at any time through your account settings.

We do not sell or share your personal information (as those terms are defined under the CCPA) for advertising or any other purpose.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@vixie.app. We respond to verified requests within 30 days.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or through the application.
