Privacy Policy

Last updated: Oct 24, 2026

This page explains what The Human Knowledge Engine (HKE) keeps about you, why we keep it, and who helps us run HKE. HKE is run by Christina Beck, doing business as The Human Knowledge Engine, in Sacramento, California.

What we keep

  • Your account. Your name, email address, and password. Your password is stored scrambled, so no one at HKE can read it. If you sign in with Google, Google shares your name and email address with us.
  • Your interview answers. They save as you type, so your work is never lost.
  • What HKE builds for you. Your blueprint, your launch plan answers, and the assets you create, including earlier versions.
  • Your plan. Which plan you are on, your trial and billing dates, how many credits you have used, and the ID numbers Stripe gives your customer account and subscription.
  • Not your card. We never see or keep your full card number. Stripe handles all payments.

What stays on your device

  • Small cookies that keep you signed in.
  • A backup copy of interview answers that have not reached our servers yet, so a lost connection does not lose your words.
  • A note of which “you moved up” messages you have already seen.

We do not use advertising cookies or tracking tools.

Why we use it

We use your information to run your account, save your work, build your blueprint and assets, handle billing, answer your emails, and keep HKE safe. That is all.

Who helps us run HKE

These companies process your information for us. Each one gets only what it needs to do its job.

  • Supabase stores your account and your saved work, and handles sign-in.
  • Stripe handles payments and billing.
  • OpenAI reads your answers to write your blueprint and assets. Under OpenAI's API terms, this data is not used to train its models.
  • Vercel hosts the HKE website and keeps short-term server logs.
  • Resend sends our emails, like sign-up confirmations and password resets.
  • Google, only if you choose to sign in with Google.

We never sell your data

We never sell or rent your personal information. We do not share it with advertisers.

How long we keep it

We keep your information while your account is open. Archiving a project hides it from your lists. It does not delete it.

When you ask us to delete your account, we delete your account and your saved work within 30 days. Stripe keeps its own payment records, as the law requires.

Your choices

  • Read all of your answers any time in your Knowledge Vault.
  • Ask us for a copy of your information.
  • Ask us to fix something that is wrong.
  • Ask us to delete your account and your saved work.

To ask, email christinabeck@humanleverageai.com from the email address on your account. We will reply within 30 days.

If you live in California, you have the right to know what we keep, to have it deleted or corrected, and to be treated the same if you use these rights. We do not sell or share your personal information.

Keeping it safe

Your information travels over encrypted connections. Each account can only see its own work. No system is perfect, but if a problem ever affects your information, we will tell you as the law requires.

Children

HKE is made for adults. It is not for anyone under 18.

Changes and the law

If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top. If the change is big, we will email you first. This policy is governed by the laws of California.
