Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 4, 2026
First Adopter ("we") is a service operated from India that finds public posts from people who may want a product, and turns them into a report. This policy explains what we collect and why.
What we collect
- Your email address, to sign you in and send your report.
- What you ask us to research: your website address or idea, and the target details you confirm.
- Your reports, including the public posts we found and any statuses you set on the scoreboard.
- Basic usage data through Google Analytics (pages visited, device type, approximate location), and server logs kept by our host.
- Messages you send through the contact form.
Public posts
Reports contain links to, and short quotes from, posts that people made publicly on sites like Reddit, Hacker News and Indie Hackers. We do not collect private messages, email addresses or contact details of the people who wrote those posts, and we do not show their usernames in reports.
How we use it
To run the service: sign-in, generating and delivering reports, preventing abuse, answering messages, and improving the product. We do not sell your data and we do not use it for advertising.
Who processes it
We use these providers to run the service: Cloudflare (hosting and database), OpenAI (analysing text to write reports), Serper (web search), Resend (email delivery) and Google Analytics (usage statistics). They process data on our behalf under their own terms.
Cookies
We use one essential cookie to keep you signed in, and Google Analytics cookies on our public pages.
Report links
Each report has a private, hard-to-guess link and is hidden from search engines. Anyone you share the link with can view it.
Keeping and deleting data
We keep your data while your account exists. You can delete your account and all your reports at any time from your account page, or ask us through the contact page.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete your data, or object to how we use it. Contact us and we will respond within 30 days.
Children
First Adopter is not for anyone under 16.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the date above, and tell signed-in users about significant changes by email.
