1. Information We Collect
When you subscribe to BeginRank, we collect information necessary to provide the service:
- Account Information: Your name, email address (via Google Sign-in), and authentication tokens.
- Business Information: Your primary website URL, brand name, and publicly available data scraped from your website to inform our automated content generation.
- Billing Information: Processed securely through our payment provider (we do not store your full credit card details).
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the sole purpose of delivering our $39/mo subscription service. This includes:
- Registering your requested .blog domain via third-party registrars.
- Analyzing your primary website to extract context, tone, and topics for the AI content generation pipeline.
- Communicating with you regarding service updates, billing issues, and account management.
3. Data Sharing and Third-Party Services
We do not sell your personal data. We only share data with trusted third parties necessary to operate the service:
- Domain Registrars: We share your business name and contact info as required by ICANN to register the .blog domain name.
- AI Providers: We send the textual context of your website to third-party AI APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic) to generate the blog posts. These providers are restricted from using your data to train their models.
- Payment Processors: For handling the monthly subscription billing safely.
4. Data Security & Retention
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. If you cancel your subscription, we will retain your account information for a limited grace period to facilitate potential reactivation or domain transfers. After this period, we will securely delete your data and take down the hosted blog, though the generated content may still exist on the public internet archive networks.
