Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
The short version: we collect what the product needs to work, we're honest about the fact that we assemble business contact data, and we don't sell your information. The longer version follows.
1. What this covers
This policy covers the 99dots website and product. 99dots is in active development; when our practices change, this page changes first and the date above moves with it.
2. What we collect from you
Account basics: your name, email address, and profile image if you sign in with Google. Product activity: the market queries you type, the audiences you build, the messages you send through connected accounts, and interaction events (page views, clicks on plan cards, and similar) tied to a random identifier.
Anonymous visitors get a random cookie so free scans can be rate limited fairly. That cookie is not used to identify you across other sites.
3. What we collect about prospects
99dots assembles business contact information (company names, roles, work email addresses) from public sources and licensed data providers. We collect this for the purpose of business outreach on your behalf, and we honor removal requests from anyone who appears in our data.
4. How we use it
To run the product: building audiences, enriching leads, sending the outreach you approve, and showing you what happened. To improve the product: aggregate analytics on which features get used. To bill you: payment processing happens through Stripe; card numbers never touch our servers.
5. Google account access
Signing in requests only your identity (email, name, picture). Sending email requests Gmail permission separately, and only when you explicitly connect a sending address. We use that access solely to send messages you approved and to read replies to those messages. We do not read the rest of your inbox.
6. What we never do
We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your contact lists or message content to market to anyone else. We do not train models on your private data without asking first.
8. Retention and deletion
Your data stays as long as your account does. Delete your account and we remove your personal data within 30 days, keeping only what invoicing and tax law require. Anonymous discovery sessions expire automatically.
9. Contact
Questions, access requests, or removal requests: use the contact form on this site and mention privacy in your message. We answer within a few business days.
