We built CatchScroll to help you understand yourself — not to extract data from you. Here's exactly what we collect, why, and what we do with it.

When you sign in with Google or email, we store your email address and, optionally, your name. If you use Google Sign-In, we also receive your Google profile name — nothing else from your Google account.
Each time you complete a reset, we save the emotion you selected, the exercise you did, and the clarity score you gave afterwards. If you use the focus timer, we record the number of sessions completed. We also record how the website is used, as described under Site analytics below.
Your email and name let you sign in and personalise your experience. Your reset and focus data builds your personal pattern over time — it's what makes the weekly AI insight possible.
We don't use your data for advertising. We don't sell it. We don't share it with anyone outside of the services that help us run CatchScroll (listed below).
Your data is stored securely in Supabase, our database and authentication provider. The AI insight is generated using OpenAI's API — only aggregated pattern data is sent, never your raw session log or personal details.
If you sign in with Google, your authentication is handled by Google's OAuth service. We receive only your email and name from that exchange.
No one on the CatchScroll team can read your individual session entries. We see only aggregate counts for product health monitoring.
CatchScroll used to offer an AI focus coach. It has been switched off and no longer sends anything to OpenAI. If you talked with it, we still hold the short note we kept about each talk (what it was about, the technique suggested, the next step you chose and your focus scores) until you ask us to delete your data.
To understand how people use the site, we record which pages are viewed, which buttons and links are clicked, how far a page is scrolled, and where a visit came from (for example a search engine or an ad), along with the device type, browser and country. This is tied to a random ID kept in your browser, not to your name, and we never store your IP address. If you sign up, it is linked to your account so we can see which pages and channels bring people who find CatchScroll useful.
We use Microsoft Clarity to see recordings and heatmaps of how pages are used. Clarity hides anything you type into a form. Our ads on Google and Meta use their own tags to measure sign-ups and purchases.
We keep your data for as long as your account is active. If you'd like your data deleted, email us at support@catchscroll.com and we'll remove everything within 7 days.
Your browser locally stores an access token (to keep you signed in) and a display name. These are cleared when you sign out.
CatchScroll sets no tracking cookies of its own. Microsoft Clarity, Google Ads and Meta may set cookies to measure visits and ads.
We use your browser's localStorage to hold your session token, your preferences, and the random visitor ID used for site analytics.
You can request a copy of your data, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it entirely. Email support@catchscroll.com and we'll respond within 48 hours.
If you're in the EU or UK, you have additional rights under GDPR. We're a small, privacy-first team and we'll always respond to your requests in good faith.
If we make meaningful changes to how we handle your data, we'll update this page and note the date below. We won't quietly expand what we collect without telling you.
