Privacy

ScoutFlow is currently operated as a controlled-test project under the name ScoutFlow. For privacy questions or data requests, contact hello@scoutflow.cc.

When you use ScoutFlow you submit a startup idea in plain language, plus optional context (target user, problem, stage, hackathon duration). You may also approve or edit the generated clarity brief and provide feedback on action plans.

ScoutFlow generates a structured clarity brief and a focused validation action plan from your idea. These outputs are stored in your account so you can return to them later.

ScoutFlow uses third-party AI services to generate clarity briefs and action plans. The information you submit may be processed by AI providers for the purpose of producing your result. ScoutFlow does not use your idea content to train or fine-tune AI models without separate notice and agreement.

Submitted content may be temporarily retained by AI providers for safety and abuse monitoring, depending on the provider's current policy. This is separate from ScoutFlow's own storage.

• Your account identity and sign-in information.
• The ideas, briefs, and action plans you create.
• Aggregate usage events — for example, that a brief was generated or an action plan was viewed. These analytics events do not contain raw idea text, generated content, feedback free text, your email, or your name.
• Feedback you submit on an action plan is stored separately and is never combined with the analytics events stream.
• If you try ScoutFlow without signing in, a temporary anonymous session identifier is used to remember your in-progress result and to count funnel events. It is not linked to your name or email, and raw idea or generated text is never attached to it.

Your ideas, briefs, and action plans are private by default. The ScoutFlow team does not access or review your submitted ideas during normal use.

Access may occur only when necessary to handle a user request, investigate a technical issue, debug a failed generation, prevent abuse, or meet legal or security obligations. Any such access is limited and may be logged. When access occurs, logs may include who accessed the content, when, and technical security information such as IP address. These access logs are retained for up to 12 months.

During controlled testing, ScoutFlow retains account data, ideas, briefs, action plans, and feedback until deletion is requested, or for up to 12 months after last activity, whichever comes first. Analytics events and admin access logs are retained for up to 12 months. Deletion and export requests are handled manually during controlled testing.

ScoutFlow relies on a small number of third-party providers to run the service, including a managed database and authentication provider, an application hosting provider, and third-party AI model providers used to generate outputs. A current subprocessor list is available on request at hello@scoutflow.cc.

You can request deletion of your account and content, or an export of the data you have submitted. Requests are handled manually during controlled testing.
