Draft. This policy has not yet been reviewed by a lawyer. It is published here so it can be read before signup, and it describes the data flows accurately as built.
Business Butler is operated by Vert & Co. Holdings, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, of 1608 Daylight Lake Dr., Katy, TX 77493. For anything in this policy, email support@businessbutler.io.
Account information. Your name, email address and profile image, from the account you create. Your organisation’s name, and who belongs to it.
Business data you enter. Vendors and their contacts, ingredients and their nutrition and allergen data, recipes, products, purchase orders, labour rates, overhead costs, and production batches. This is the substance of the Service and is stored until you delete it.
Billing information. Your subscription plan and status. We do not receive or store your card number — Stripe handles payment details directly.
Technical information. Server logs recording requests and errors, used to keep the Service working. Errors are recorded with the request path and the affected organisation’s identifier; credentials and personal details are filtered out before anything is written.
What we do not collect. No advertising or tracking cookies, no third-party analytics, no behavioural profiling. Cookies are limited to what is needed to keep you signed in.
We do not sell your data, share it for advertising, or use it to train machine learning models.
Running the Service means some data passes through other companies. These are all of them:
| Service | What it receives | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Clerk | Name, email, profile image, sign-in activity | Authentication |
| Stripe | Email, billing and card details, subscription status | Payments |
| Neon | All stored business data | Database hosting |
| Vercel | Requests, server logs, error reports | Application hosting |
| Resend | Recipient email addresses and message content | Sending email |
| Shopify | Product names, prices, inventory levels | Only if you connect it |
| QuickBooks | Vendors, purchase orders, bills | Only if you connect it |
| USDA FoodData Central | The food name you search for | Nutrition lookup. No account data is sent |
Shopify and QuickBooks receive nothing unless you connect them, and you can disconnect either at any time from Settings → Integrations.
Data is stored in the United States on infrastructure operated by the providers above. If you are outside that region, using the Service means your data is transferred there.
Your business data is kept while your account is open. When an account is deleted we remove the account and its organisation’s data. Some records are kept longer where we are legally required to — billing records in particular.
Server logs are retained for a limited period by our hosting provider and then discarded.
Export. Vendors, ingredients, recipes, products and overhead can be exported as CSV at any time from the Vendors, Ingredients, Recipes, Products and Overhead pages.
Correction. Anything you entered can be edited in the app.
Deletion. An organisation owner can have the account deleted by emailing support@businessbutler.io. Deletion removes the organisation and everything in it — vendors, ingredients, recipes, products, orders and production records — and cancels any active subscription first, so you are not billed for an account that no longer exists. Accounts belonging only to that organisation are removed too.
Deletion cannot be undone. Export the lists you want to keep (vendors, ingredients, recipes, products and overhead) first. Some billing records are retained where we are legally required to keep them.
Depending on where you live you may have further rights — to access what we hold, to object to processing, or to complain to a regulator. Email us and we will help.
Traffic is encrypted in transit. Each organisation’s data is separated, and every request is checked against the organisation the signed-in user belongs to. Credentials are held by Clerk and Stripe rather than by us, and secrets are kept out of the codebase.
No system is perfectly secure. If we discover a breach affecting your data we will tell you and the relevant regulator as the law requires.
The Service is for businesses and is not intended for anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect their data.
If this policy changes we will update the date at the top, and give notice before any material change takes effect. See also our Terms of Service.
