Privacy For Humans

Updated Feb 10, 2025

Hi there!

At Hapstack, your privacy is at the core of our decision making. Sensitive information may pass through our systems, and we don’t take that lightly.

This page explains how our systems process your data. For more details on personal data usage, refer to our Privacy Policy (for laywers).

Where does my data go within Hapstack?

Your data is comprised of things like your name, email, apps, app sessions, notifications, linked accounts like Google, and so on. The majority of this data is stored in an encrypted database with our database provider, Neon. Only two individuals at Hapstack have access to this data, and strict role-based permissions and audit logs are in place.

How do you handle activity tracking?

All activity tracking is handled by our extremely lightweight browser extension.

The tracking technology is simple. Whenever a user with our extension visits a web page, we check (locally) to see if that url is present in our database of verified SaaS app urls. If there is, we record a session, If not, we don't do anything. No url or browsing activity is ever sent to our servers unless our extension has already determined that a match has been found in our database of apps.

Our app database consists only of business-related software tools. It doesn't include personal, B2C apps or apps that are not typically used for business purposes.

Where does my personal data go outside of Hapstack?

We only send personal data to trusted third-party systems that are subject to strict privacy and security controls. We think it’s important you understand not only what these systems are but also why we send your data to these systems. If you don’t agree with or understand our reasoning, please email us at [email protected]. If you do not agree with your data going to a specific system, deleting your Hapstack account will permanently delete all of your data from all our systems.

For folks coming to figure out GDPR compliance, the following third-party services act as data processors for us. When we work with these service providers in our capacity as a data processor for our customers' personal data, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) calls these third-party service providers a sub-processor. A subprocessor is a third party data processor engaged by Hapstack who may have access to or process personal data: (i) on behalf of Hapstack customers; (ii) in accordance with customer instructions as communicated by Hapstack; and (iii) in accordance with the terms of a written contract between Hapstack and the subprocessor.
