Kilala ("we", "us", or "our") operates the Kilala digital business card platform at kilala.ai. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our service. By using Kilala, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your name and email address through our authentication provider, Clerk.

Business Card Data

Information you voluntarily provide for your digital business card, including: full name, job title, company name, email address, phone number, website URL, social media links (LinkedIn, Twitter/X, WhatsApp, Telegram), profile photos, and company logos.

Card View Analytics

We track views of your published business card, including the view source (direct link or QR scan) and timestamp. We also collect anonymized product usage analytics such as page views, feature interactions, and button clicks to help us understand how the service is used and improve it.

Lead Capture Data

When visitors choose to leave their contact information on your card (if you have lead capture enabled), we collect their name, email address, and optionally their phone number.

Payment Information

Payment processing is handled entirely by Polar.sh. We do not store credit card numbers or payment method details. We only store subscription status, plan type, and billing dates.
