Privacy Policy
Effective October 18, 2026
- Your main scanner photos are private by default and are not given public URLs.
- Creating a Second Sight A.I. share link publishes the generated scan summary and reuse ideas — it does not automatically publish the original private scan photo.
- Community posts are public only when you intentionally submit a post. The Community feature does not automatically attach your private scan photos.
- Nothing is posted to Community or handed to a social-sharing app until you use the relevant Post or Share control.
Second Sight A.I. helps people identify physical items, find reuse ideas, estimate resale value, compare marketplace information, organize spaces, understand original purposes, get disposal guidance, create parent-guided learning projects, discuss reuse projects in Community, use Construction Site planning tools, explore Map Hub and Garden & Outdoors, and track nutrition and wellness. This policy explains the information used to provide those features.
Information Second Sight A.I. may process
- Account information: email address, authentication/session data, account tier, and subscription status.
- Photos and scan inputs: images you choose to submit, item names, barcodes, organization preferences, job descriptions, material descriptions, resale details, and similar prompts needed to perform analysis.
- Community and feedback content: Community posts, replies, display names, reports, feedback categories, feature requests, bug reports, and support information you intentionally submit.
- Location: approximate or precise device location when you choose a location control for Disposal, Map Hub, or Garden & Outdoors. You can instead enter a place, city or postal/ZIP code. Search terms and the location needed for your request may be sent to the mapping, local-search or biodiversity providers described below.
- Saved app data: scan results, reuse ideas, favorites, private scan history, tool/material inventory, safety-related results, organization-result context, resale valuation summaries, Construction Site usage counts, project preferences, and settings associated with your account.
- App activity and diagnostics: page views, feature usage, funnel events, structured feedback-submission events, AI-job/processing diagnostics, and technical information used to operate, secure, measure, and improve the service.
- Wellness information: food, nutrient, hydration and exercise logs, goals, preferences, and optional personal profile answers. These records are stored in this browser under your signed-in account. The AI coach receives the question you send. Your profile, today’s totals and recent tracking summary are included only when you enable the optional context-sharing control before sending.
- Payment information: Stripe processes web payments and Google Play Billing processes Android subscriptions. We use provider transaction identifiers, purchase verification and subscription status to grant account access. Second Sight A.I. does not receive or store your full card number.
How information is used
Information is used to authenticate users, perform requested AI analysis, generate reuse, organization and resale guidance, personalize projects to the experience/tools/materials/preferences you provide, return local disposal guidance, save requested results, operate Community and feedback features, enforce scan limits and subscriptions, prevent abuse, diagnose errors, measure product performance, prioritize product/content improvements, and support account or privacy requests.
AI processing and private scan images
For the main reuse scanner, the photo is uploaded to an account-scoped private Supabase Storage bucket before AI analysis. The object is not given a public URL. The server reads it using the signed-in account and sends the image content to the server-side AI service needed to perform the requested analysis. Second Sight A.I. records the resulting scan, project ideas, safety information, and AI-job diagnostics.
Private scan images can be viewed from your scan history through short-lived signed links generated only after authentication. Where available, history controls let you request deletion of an individual scan and its private image. An unavailable control, pending request, error or timeout does not confirm that either was removed. For an unavailable or unconfirmed scan deletion, use the privacy contact below and identify the scan you want removed. Account-deletion requests include associated private scan images. Submitting a request does not itself remove those images.
Sharing scan results and social sharing
When you intentionally create a share link, Second Sight A.I. creates a shareable version of the generated scan result containing the identified object, recognition confidence, condition/material notes, and generated reuse ideas. The private original scan image is not included in that shared result. A share link can be forwarded outside Second Sight A.I. and should be treated as public while it remains active.
If you use your device's native sharing feature, the operating system may offer external apps such as messaging or social-media services. Once you choose an external service, that service's own privacy practices apply to the information you send.
Community and public user-generated content
Community posts and replies are public when you intentionally publish them. Other users may read or share that public text. Second Sight A.I. currently keeps Community posting separate from private scanner-photo storage so a Community post does not automatically expose a private scan image. Do not include personal contact information, confidential workplace information, precise private-location details, or personal information about children in a Community post.
Signed-in users may report Community posts, replies or members for moderation review. Reports are used to investigate misuse, safety concerns, spam, or other violations. When you block a Community member, that preference is stored with your account to hide their content from you. You can remove a block; blocking does not delete the member’s account or content.
Feedback and improvement signals
Feedback can be categorized as usability, bug, feature, safety, privacy, content, or other. Second Sight A.I. may use these categories together with app-usage signals to identify repeated problems, prioritize high-impact fixes, and decide which project or safety content needs review. Feedback submitted through the feedback form is private by default and is only shown on the public feedback board after intentional review/publication.
Marketplace comparison
For the Resale & Value Scanner, Second Sight A.I. may create a marketplace search from the AI-identified item name and details you supplied. When live marketplace comparison is enabled, those search terms may be sent to eBay’s API to retrieve current active listings and asking prices. The app distinguishes active asking prices from completed-sale information and does not represent an active listing price as a verified sale price. If you open a marketplace or sold-results link, you leave Second Sight A.I. and the marketplace’s own privacy practices apply.
Wellness records and the AI coach
Your wellness log and profile stay in this browser and are separated by account. They are not synchronized between devices or included in the account-data export. Signing out hides the records; it does not erase the account’s local log. Browser storage is not an encrypted health-record vault, so avoid entering sensitive information on a shared device. Unassigned records from older app versions are not shown or automatically imported into an account.
Asking the coach sends your question through Vercel AI Gateway to the configured AI provider. By default, your local profile and tracking records are not included. If you choose the optional context-sharing control, your profile, today’s totals and recent tracking summary are also sent with that question. The nutrition-coach endpoint does not save the conversation in the app database. Provider processing and diagnostic retention are governed by those providers’ practices; this is not a promise of zero provider retention.
Maps, garden photos and biodiversity lookups
Map Hub uses Google Maps and local-place services for maps, searches and directions. Opening an embedded map or external directions link sends relevant search and location information, along with ordinary network information such as your IP address, to Google. Garden & Outdoors can send a submitted plant photo to Pl@ntNet for identification and species names and your selected location to iNaturalist for taxon and observation lookups. These lookups do not intentionally publish an observation or community post on your behalf. AI garden guidance also uses the image and details you submit. Provider verification is withheld when a species name cannot be matched reliably.
Service providers
Second Sight A.I. uses service providers to operate the app, including Supabase for authentication, database and private file storage; Vercel for hosting, analytics and AI Gateway; supported AI model providers routed through Vercel AI Gateway for requested analysis; Stripe for web payment processing; Google Play for Android billing and purchase verification; Google Maps and place services for mapping and local search; Pl@ntNet for plant-photo identification; iNaturalist for biodiversity lookups; and eBay for live marketplace comparison when that feature is enabled. These providers process information under their own terms and security practices as necessary to provide their services.
Children and parent-guided activities
ReUse Kids is designed as a parent, guardian, or educator planning feature. Adults choose the child age range and prepare or supervise activities. Second Sight A.I. is not intended to create child accounts or intentionally collect personal information directly from children. Adults should not submit a child’s personal information or identifiable photo to the app or Community.
Data retention and deletion
Account-associated app data and private scan images are retained while needed to provide the service or until a scan or account deletion is completed, subject to legitimate security, fraud-prevention, moderation, tax, accounting, or legal retention requirements. Payment processors may retain transaction records as required by law or their policies.
You can review saved scans from the private scan-history page. Scan deletion may be unavailable or awaiting completion; use the privacy contact below if the app cannot confirm removal. Automatic account deletion is temporarily unavailable while billing safety is verified. You can request permanent account deletion and removal of associated app data through the account-deletion page, whether or not you can sign in or have the Android app installed. Account ownership may need to be verified before deletion is completed. A submission confirmation means the request was received; it does not mean account deletion is complete or subscriptions are canceled. Data may remain while the request awaits review or billing resolution.
When a Home scan deletion is confirmed, its saved AI output and item choices are removed. Limited usage facts, request hashes and retry identifiers may remain for accounting and to prevent a deleted result from being replayed or charged again. A provider response arriving after deletion cannot restore the saved result.
Wellness records are stored on each device. Submitting an account-deletion request does not clear them, and support cannot remotely clear browser storage. Use your browser’s site-data controls to remove local wellness records on every device where you used this feature; clearing all site data also signs you out and removes other local settings.
Security
Second Sight A.I. uses HTTPS in transit, authenticated access controls, database row-level security, account-scoped private object storage, short-lived signed image links, server-side payment processing, durable AI-job tracking, restricted server-side AI and marketplace credentials, and access controls around Community posting/reporting. No internet service can guarantee absolute security.
