Privacy Policy

This site is run by People Make Things, Inc., 2261 Market St STE 35679, San Francisco, CA 94114, United States. If you have a question about your information, write to jason@peoplemakethings.com.

When you go through one of the waitlist forms on this site, we collect:

• Your mobile phone number, if you type it in and submit it.
• The answers you pick in the form, such as what you drive, what you would use the app for, and how many hours you are on the road.
• Which waitlist you signed up for, and the time you signed up.
• How you got here: the link you clicked, the ad and campaign it belongs to, and the tracking parameters attached to that link.
• Standard technical information your browser sends: IP address, browser and device type, the pages you open on this site, and how you move through them.

We do not ask for your name, your email address, your home address, or your license or employment details, and we do not buy that information about you from anyone else.

• To put you on the waitlist and to reach you when there is something to join.
• To see which parts of the form people finish and where they drop out, so we can fix it.
• To measure which of our ads bring people in, and to stop paying for the ones that do not.

We do not sell your information, and we do not rent or trade it.

We use a few outside services to run this site. They only get what they need to do their job:

• Meta (Facebook and Instagram). We run ads there, so we tell Meta when a sign-up happens. Your phone number is scrambled into an irreversible code before it is sent, and we never send Meta the answers you picked. Meta also receives your IP address, your browser type and its own cookie identifiers, and uses them to match the sign-up to an ad.
• PostHog. Our analytics tool. It records how the pages are used, including a replay of the screens and taps in your visit. Anything typed into a form field is hidden before that replay leaves your browser, and your phone number is never sent to PostHog: it is replaced by a scrambled code that cannot be turned back into a number.
• Neon. The database where the sign-ups are stored.
• Vercel. The company that hosts this website.
• Slack. Our internal chat, where a new sign-up shows up so the team sees it.

Beyond that, we only hand information over if the law requires it, or if the business or part of it is sold, in which case it moves with it.

By submitting your phone number you agree that we may text you about the waitlist you joined and about the app when it opens. This is not a subscription and there is no charge from us, but your normal carrier rates still apply. Reply STOP to any message and we stop texting you.

This site stores small pieces of data in your browser. Some of them keep your place in the form so a refresh does not send you back to the start. Others belong to Meta and PostHog and are used to recognise the same browser across visits.

You can clear them at any time in your browser settings, and you can block them with a tracking blocker or your browser’s privacy settings. The form still works if you do.

We keep sign-ups for as long as the waitlist is active and delete them once it is clear they are no longer needed. Analytics records are kept for up to one year. Ask us to delete your information earlier and we will.

Write to jason@peoplemakethings.com and you can ask what we hold on you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. You do not need an account and there is no fee, we only need enough detail to find your entry, which is normally the phone number you signed up with.

If you live in California, you have the right to know what we collect, to have it deleted, to have it corrected, and not to be treated differently for asking. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising as those terms are defined by California law.

You can also limit ad tracking directly at Meta, in your Facebook or Instagram ad settings.

This site is meant for adults and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor signed up, write to us and we will remove the entry.

If we change how any of this works, we update this page and the date at the top of it.
