Privacy policy

Judgily is a small, single-operator entertainment site. We collect the minimum needed to render the fictional verdict you asked for and to keep the lights on. We never sell your data. We never use it to train models. You can delete any case you filed at any time, and the public page disappears immediately.

Every “verdict,” “finding,” and “award of damages” is an AI-generated comedic performance in the voice of a fictional judge persona. It is not a determination of fact about anyone, not legal advice, and not evidence of anything. If you write a real person's name into a case, the resulting page is a work of satire about a hypothetical scenario, not a dossier. We strip / refuse content that identifies real private individuals or names public figures precisely so the output stays in the realm of entertainment.

You can file a case without signing up. We store a long-lived cookie (anonymous_id) so we can recognize repeat visits, enforce the free-tier weekly cap, and let you migrate cases into a real account later if you sign in. We also record your IP for per-IP rate-limiting (max 5 cases per 24h). The IP lives in a rate_limits row and is not joined to any other identifier.

When you file a case we collect the names you type (plaintiff + defendant — we ask you to use first names or generic descriptors), your one-line dispute summary, your argument text, your judge selection, and optionally an email for you and/or the defendant. If you create an account, we associate it with your email and a Supabase Auth user id. We capture standard operational telemetry — IP, request logs, error traces — for debugging and abuse prevention. That's the whole list.

If you supply a defendant's email, we send them exactly one email with a 24-hour window to submit a defense, mark the case private, or block it entirely. We store that email only so the action link can be verified by HMAC signature, and we log the defendant's choice in a defendant_actions audit row. We never share a defendant's email with anyone and never email them again about the case.

The text of your dispute is sent to:

• Anthropic (Claude) — to write the fictional verdict. Per Anthropic's default API terms, your content is not used to train their models.
• xAI (Grok) — a fast safety classification on the submission text to refuse abuse / harm / illegal content before a verdict is written. We keep only the flagged/not-flagged decision.
• OpenAI Whisper — only if you use the Pro voice testimony feature, your audio is transcribed by Whisper. No voice testimony means no data to OpenAI.

We do not send your case content to any other third party for any purpose.

Case rows persist until you delete them. Voice audio (Pro) is stored in Supabase Storage for 24 hours then auto-purged. A voice transcript is kept for 30 days or until the parent case is deleted, whichever comes first. Per-IP rate-limit rows are purged 24 hours after the window opens. Delete a case yourself from /account/cases and the row, audio, transcript, and defendant log all go with it; the public URL 404s immediately.

If you upgrade, Stripe processes the payment. We never see or store your card details — only the Stripe customer id, subscription id, current tier, and renewal date are mirrored into our database so we know what you have access to. Manage or cancel any time at /account/billing.

Hosting is Vercel (US). Database, auth, and file storage are Supabase (US). Transactional email is Resend. Product analytics is PostHog and error tracking is Sentry. Each acts only as a processor under our instruction; none receives your data to use for their own purposes.

You can delete any case at will, delete your whole account by emailing us, opt out of analytics with any standard tracker blocker, and decline cookies (the site still works; the weekly free cap may behave oddly). If you're in the EU/UK or California and want access, correction, export, or deletion of anything tied to you, email hello@judgily.com and we'll handle it within 30 days. Because this is an entertainment product that asks you to avoid submitting real personal data in the first place, there is usually very little to export.

Judgily is not directed to children under 13 and you must be 13 or older to use it. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13; if we learn that we have, we delete it.

We may update this policy; the “Last updated” date at the top changes when we do. For anything at all — privacy questions, data deletion, takedown requests, or general contact — email hello@judgily.com. It's the only address we use.
