Privacy

Last updated 15 October 2026

What we store

• Your email address, and a display name if you set one.
• The prompts you write — what you asked to have explained.
• The videos produced from them, with their outlines, narration and transcripts.
• What each video cost to make, so your account page can show you.
• A record of views: a salted, daily-rotating hash of the session. Never an IP address, and not reversible.

Your prompts go to an AI provider

To produce a video, the text you write is sent to a third-party AI provider that runs the model. They process it on our behalf to return the outline and the script.

If you bring your own provider key, your prompts go to your provider under your agreement with them, and we are not in that relationship.

Videos are public by default

A finished video goes into the public library unless you say otherwise. You can change that for a single video while you are making it, or for every future video in your account settings. Videos marked unlisted are reachable by anyone with the link but are kept out of search and out of the library; private videos are visible only to you.

Cookies

We set two cookies, both strictly necessary: one that keeps you signed in, and one that protects forms against cross-site request forgery.

We advertise on Facebook and Instagram, and we ask before setting one more: Meta's advertising cookie. If you press Accept on the banner, Meta's script loads and tells Meta which of our pages you open, and whether you sign up or subscribe, so Meta can tell us which ads worked and show them to people more likely to want them. Meta receives your IP address and browser details with it and uses them under its own privacy policy. If you press No thanks, or never answer, the script never loads and Meta learns nothing from this site. Your answer is remembered in your own browser only. You can change it at any time with Cookie choice, which is also at the foot of every public page.

Counting who reads the site

We keep a count of which pages are requested, so we know what people read and on what. Each record holds the page, the browser and operating system family, whether it was a phone or a computer, the country your network provider is in, and the site you followed a link from — its name only, never the page you were reading.

Your IP address is not stored. It is combined with a secret that changes every day and turned into a one-way hash, which lets us count you once in a day and makes it impossible to recognise you tomorrow. Nothing is written to your device to do this — no cookie, no stored identifier, no third-party script — and no advertising or analytics company receives any of it. (Meta's cookie, above, is separate from this count and only there if you accepted it.) These records are deleted after 90 days.

On the public pages we also note what happens on the page, so we can tell which parts are useful and where people get stuck: which sections were on screen and for how long, how far down the page you scrolled, which named buttons were clicked, and on the sign-up form, how long was spent in each field and whether it showed an error. Never what you type — a field is recorded by its name only. If you answer the one-question prompt on the home page, we keep the choice you clicked. These notes carry the same daily hash as the page count, are kept on our own server, and are deleted after 90 days. If your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control, none of this is recorded.

How long we keep things

Videos stay until you delete them or close your account. An unused private video has its rendered file removed after 90 days without being opened, to save storage — the recipe is kept, so the video can be produced again. Public and unlisted videos are never removed this way: somebody may have the link.

Records of views are deleted after thirteen months. The session hash in them is salted, rotates daily and is not reversible, so an older record cannot identify anybody in any case.

Your rights over this data

A copy of everything. Your account page has a button that downloads it: your prompts, your videos, your usage and what it cost, as a file you keep. You do not need to ask us, and we are not told that you did it.

Deletion. You can delete a single video at any time. The same account page closes your account and erases everything in it — with the choice of taking your published videos down with you, or leaving them in the library detached from your name. Closing an account cancels any subscription first. It cannot be undone, so download your data first if you want it.

Correction, objection and complaint. Write to hello@proverbit.com to have something corrected, or to object to how we are using it. If you are in the UK you may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office; if you are in the EU, to your national supervisory authority.

Why we are allowed to hold it

Your account, your prompts and the videos made from them are processed to perform the contract you entered into by signing up — without them there is no product. Payments are processed on the same basis, and kept afterwards because we have a legal obligation to keep records of what was sold.

View counts, the page counts described above, spend records and our security logs rest on legitimate interests: knowing what the platform costs to run, knowing which pages are worth keeping, showing you what you have used, and being able to demonstrate that an account was erased when it was. We record erasures without keeping any personal data in the record itself.

Who else handles it

A short list, naming what each one receives, is on the subprocessors page.

Payments

Payments are handled by PayPal. Card and account details are entered with them and never reach us; we see that a subscription exists, not what paid for it.
