Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 1, 2025
1. Who We Are
slide-deck.io is operated by Morton Technology Consulting LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use slide-deck.io (the "Service"). If you have questions, contact us at privacy@slide-deck.io.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Account Information
When you register, we collect your email address, full name, and hashed password (PBKDF2, 100,000 iterations). If you sign in with Google or another OAuth provider, we receive your name, email, and profile picture URL from that provider. We do not receive or store your OAuth provider password.
2.2 Deck and Slide Content
The presentation content you create — slide text, speaker notes, layout choices, uploaded images, and associated data sources — is stored in our database and object storage on your behalf. This content is private to your account unless you explicitly enable public sharing via a share link.
2.3 Connected Data Sources
When you connect an external data source (Google Sheets, HubSpot, Salesforce, Microsoft OneDrive, or a SQL database), we store the OAuth access and refresh tokens or credentials necessary to read that data. These credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM before being written to our database. We access your data source only when you or your automation triggers a deck regeneration. We never sell or share your connected data source credentials or the data retrieved from them.
2.4 Usage Analytics
We collect anonymized usage events (pages visited, features used, errors encountered) to improve the Service. These events do not include the content of your decks. We do not use third-party advertising trackers.
2.5 Billing Information
Payment card information is collected and stored by Stripe, our payment processor. We receive a customer ID and subscription status from Stripe, but we never see or store your full card number, CVV, or bank account details.
2.6 Log Data
Our servers automatically log your IP address, browser user agent, referring URL, and HTTP request metadata for security and debugging purposes. These logs are retained for up to 30 days and are not sold or shared.
3. How We Use Your Information
- Service delivery: generating, storing, and exporting your presentations; connecting to your data sources on your request.
- Authentication: verifying your identity and maintaining your session.
- Billing: processing subscription payments through Stripe and managing your plan tier.
- Support: responding to your inquiries and diagnosing issues you report.
- Security: detecting and preventing abuse, unauthorized access, and fraud.
- Product improvement: analyzing anonymized usage patterns to prioritize features and fix bugs.
We do not use your deck content to train AI models. Presentation content sent to Anthropic's Claude API for generation is governed by Anthropic's API terms, which prohibit training on customer data submitted via API.
4. Data Storage and Transfers
Your data is stored on Cloudflare's infrastructure. The primary database (Cloudflare D1) and object storage (Cloudflare R2) are in the United States. Cloudflare applies encryption at rest for both services.
If you are located outside the United States, your data will be transferred to and processed in the United States. By using the Service, you consent to this transfer.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We share data only:
- With service providers: Stripe (payments), Anthropic (AI generation via API), Cloudflare (infrastructure), and any email delivery provider — each bound by data processing agreements.
- When required by law: in response to a valid court order, subpoena, or government request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of slide-deck.io, our users, or the public.
- In a corporate transaction: if slide-deck.io is acquired or merged, your data may transfer to the successor entity, subject to the same protections.
6. Cookies and Local Storage
We use a single session cookie (sdi_session) to keep you logged in. It is HttpOnly, Secure, and SameSite=Strict. We do not use advertising cookies. Local storage is used only to persist UI preferences (e.g., last-used layout, dark mode setting) on your device.
7. Your Rights
- Access: you may request a copy of your account data by emailing privacy@slide-deck.io.
- Correction: you may update your name and email from your account settings at any time.
- Deletion: deleting your account from account settings permanently deletes your profile, all decks, all uploaded files, and all connected data source credentials. Deletion is irreversible and will be completed within 30 days.
- Portability: you may export your decks as PPTX files at any time from the dashboard.
- Opt-out of analytics: anonymized usage events may be disabled by contacting us. This does not affect service functionality.
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have additional rights under the GDPR/UK-GDPR, including the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
8. Data Retention
We retain account data for as long as your account is active. Deleted accounts and their associated data are purged within 30 days. Server logs are retained for 30 days. Stripe retains billing records per their own policy.
9. Security
We implement technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including encryption at rest and in transit, rate limiting, and access controls. See our Security page for details. No system is perfectly secure; if you discover a vulnerability, please report it to security@slide-deck.io.
10. Children
The Service is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with data, contact us at privacy@slide-deck.io and we will delete it promptly.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you by email or by a prominent notice in the Service before material changes take effect. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
