OUR ANALYTICS STACK IS INTENTIONALLY MINIMAL: WE USE GOOGLE ANALYTICS (FOR AGGREGATE WEBSITE TRAFFIC) AND POSTHOG (FOR FIRST-PARTY PRODUCT USAGE TELEMETRY). WE DO NOT EMBED THIRD-PARTY ADVERTISING SDKS, CROSS-SITE TRACKERS, RETARGETING PIXELS, OR DATA-BROKER FEEDS.

1. Overview and Commitment

1.1 Our Privacy Commitment

Golden Ratio, LLC ("Company," "we," "us," "our"), the operator of Mailbox.bot, is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. The Platform's currently live offering is an outbound mail API: you (or your AI agent, MCP client, or REST consumer) submit a document, recipient, and service class, and we print, envelope, stamp, and tender the piece to the carrier on your behalf. Inbound mailbox and physical-package services are in restricted private beta and are not generally available. We take seriously the responsibility you place in us when you transmit documents, recipient data, agent rules, and credentials to the Platform.

1.2 Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected through the Mailbox.bot website (mailbox.bot), the Mailbox.bot REST API, the MCP server, the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) endpoint, OpenClaw integrations, the Operator Dashboard, Agent profile pages, and any related services, tools, or communications (collectively, the "Platform").

1.3 Agreement

By using the Platform, creating an account, joining the waitlist, or interacting with our services in any way, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Platform.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide Directly

We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, including:

2.2 Information We Collect Automatically

When you access or use the Platform, we automatically collect:

2.3 Information Generated Through Our Services

We use your information to operate, maintain, and improve the Platform, including:

3.2 Security and Fraud Prevention

We use your information to protect the Platform and our users, including:

3.3 Communications

We use your information to communicate with you about your account, service updates, security alerts, and other transactional communications. We will never send you unsolicited marketing emails without your explicit opt-in consent.

3.4 Legal Compliance

We use your information to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal processes, including responding to lawful subpoenas, court orders, and law enforcement requests (see Section 6).

3.5 Improvement and Analytics

We use aggregated, anonymized data to improve our services, analyze usage patterns, and develop new features. This data cannot be used to identify you individually.

4. We Never Sell or Share Your Data for Marketing

WE DO NOT SELL YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. WE HAVE NEVER SOLD PERSONAL INFORMATION. WE WILL NEVER SELL PERSONAL INFORMATION. THIS IS NOT A CONDITIONAL STATEMENT — IT IS AN ABSOLUTE COMMITMENT.

WE DO NOT SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES FOR THEIR MARKETING, ADVERTISING, OR PROMOTIONAL PURPOSES. WE DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN DATA BROKERAGES. WE DO NOT MONETIZE YOUR DATA IN ANY WAY OTHER THAN PROVIDING THE SERVICES YOU PAY FOR.

4.1 Limited Disclosure

We disclose your personal information only in the following circumstances:

4.2 No Third-Party Marketing

We do not provide your name, email address, phone number, physical address, or any other personal information to third parties for the purpose of sending you marketing communications, targeted advertising, or promotional materials. If this ever changes, we will obtain your explicit, affirmative opt-in consent before any such sharing occurs.

5. Third-Party Service Providers

5.1 Service Providers We Use

We work with the following categories of third-party service providers to operate the Platform:

5.2 Identity Verification

Stripe Identity — We use Stripe Identity for KYC identity verification. When you verify your identity, Stripe processes your government-issued ID and biometric selfie. Stripe's handling of this data is governed by Stripe's Privacy Policy. We receive only the verification result (verified/rejected), a session identifier, and extracted identity fields. We do not store copies of your identity documents on our servers after verification is complete.

5.3 Payment Processing

Stripe Payments — All payment processing is handled by Stripe. Your credit card number, CVV, and full payment details are transmitted directly to Stripe and are never stored on our servers. We receive only a tokenized reference, last four digits, expiration date, and transaction status. Stripe is PCI DSS Level 1 certified.

5.4 Outbound Mail Fulfillment

Outbound mail is fulfilled directly through facilities operated by or contracted with the Company. The PDF you submit, the recipient address, the return address, and any agent-supplied metadata are transmitted to the assigned facility's production system, where the piece is printed, enveloped, weighed, postage-applied, and tendered to the selected carrier (USPS, FedEx, or UPS at published retail rates). We do not transmit the contents of your document to any third-party print-and-mail service such as Lob, PostGrid, or any similar SaaS print broker.

Carrier-generated tracking numbers and delivery scans are received from the carrier and surfaced to you via the dashboard, REST API, MCP, and webhooks. Once a mail piece has been handed off to USPS or another carrier, the carrier's privacy practices govern the in-transit handling of the piece and its tracking events.

5.5 File-Format Conversion

If you submit a non-PDF document (DOCX, XLSX, RTF, image formats, etc.) and the Outbound Mail cloud-conversion feature is enabled for your account, the file is transmitted to CloudConvert for conversion to PDF prior to printing. CloudConvert deletes uploaded files automatically per its privacy policy. Submissions in PDF, JPG, PNG, or TXT format are converted locally on our infrastructure and are never sent to a third-party converter.

5.6 Database and Infrastructure

Supabase — Our application database is hosted on Supabase, which provides PostgreSQL with row-level security, encryption at rest, and SOC 2 Type II compliance. Data is stored in secure, access-controlled environments.

Upstash — We use Upstash Redis for rate limiting and Upstash QStash for asynchronous job processing (webhook delivery, outbound mail dispatch, billing sweeps, notifications). QStash signs every job with our signing keys and never receives the contents of your documents.

Resend — Transactional email (verification, security alerts, owner notifications) is sent via Resend. Resend processes recipient addresses and email content solely to deliver the message.

Twilio — SMS notifications, the support-text proxy, and signup-time phone-carrier checks (Twilio Lookup v2) are processed via Twilio.

5.7 Analytics — Google Analytics and PostHog

The Platform uses two and only two analytics providers, both for our own first-party measurement of how the website and product are used. We do not allow either provider to use your data for their own advertising, model training, or third-party sharing.

5.8 Hosting and CDN

Vercel — Our website and API are hosted on Vercel's infrastructure. Vercel may process request logs (IP, user agent, request path) in the course of serving the application.

5.9 Bot Protection

Cloudflare Turnstile — We use Cloudflare Turnstile to protect signup, contact, and waitlist forms from automated abuse. Turnstile may collect device and browser signals to distinguish humans from bots, processed by Cloudflare under its privacy policy.

5.10 Contractual Protections

All third-party service providers are bound by contractual obligations (or, where applicable, by their published Data Processing Addenda) to: process your data only for the purposes we specify; maintain appropriate security measures; not sell, share, or use your data for their own advertising, marketing, or model training; notify us promptly of any security incidents; and delete your data upon termination of our agreement or upon our instruction.

6. Law Enforcement and Legal Disclosures

WE WILL COMPLY WITH ALL LAWFUL LEGAL PROCESS. WE MAY DISCLOSE YOUR INFORMATION IN RESPONSE TO VALID SUBPOENAS, COURT ORDERS, SEARCH WARRANTS, AND OTHER LEGAL REQUESTS. IN SOME CASES, WE ARE PROHIBITED FROM NOTIFYING YOU OF SUCH DISCLOSURES. SEE OUR TERMS OF SERVICE (SECTION 9) FOR COMPLETE DETAILS ON OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT COOPERATION POLICY.

6.1 What We May Disclose

In response to valid legal process, we may disclose:

6.2 Voluntary Reporting

We may voluntarily report to law enforcement any activity that we suspect involves fraud, money laundering, terrorism financing, Prohibited Items, or other criminal conduct, without prior notice to you. This is consistent with our commitment to operating a safe, lawful platform.

6.3 Preservation Requests

We honor lawful preservation requests from law enforcement and will preserve relevant records for the period specified, or 180 days if no period is specified.

7. Data Security

7.1 Encryption

We implement strong encryption to protect your data:

7.2 Access Controls

We maintain strict access controls to protect your data:

7.3 Infrastructure Security

7.4 Facility Security

Our physical Facilities where packages are received and stored employ security measures including restricted access, security monitoring, and inventory tracking. Only authorized personnel are permitted to handle packages.

7.5 Security Limitations

8. Data Retention

8.1 Retention Periods

We retain your information for the following periods:

8.2 Extended Retention

We may retain information beyond the standard retention periods if required by law, regulation, or legal process; subject to a pending or anticipated legal hold or litigation; necessary for the investigation of fraud or security incidents; or subject to a law enforcement preservation request.

8.3 Deletion

When data reaches the end of its retention period and no exception applies, it is permanently deleted or irreversibly anonymized. Deletion is performed through secure deletion procedures that render the data unrecoverable.

13. Children's Privacy

The Platform is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18.

14.2 Incident Response

We maintain a documented incident response plan that includes procedures for identifying, containing, investigating, and remediating security incidents. Our response team is trained and prepared to act swiftly in the event of a breach.

15. Aggregated and Anonymized Data

15.1 Use of Aggregated Data

We may create aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified data from your personal information. This data cannot reasonably be used to identify you. We may use aggregated data for:

15.2 Opt-Out of Aggregated Data Use

You may opt out of having your data included in aggregated datasets by emailing support [at] mailbox [dot] bot with the subject "Opt-Out: Aggregated Data." We will honor your request within thirty (30) days.

16. Agent, API, MCP, and A2A Data

The Platform exposes its outbound mail capabilities to AI agents and developers via REST API, MCP (Model Context Protocol), A2A (Agent-to-Agent), and OpenClaw. This section describes the data we collect and retain in connection with those programmatic interfaces.

16.1 Agent Profile Data

Agent profiles hosted at [agent-slug].mailbox.bot may be publicly accessible. Information you include in an Agent's profile (name, description, capabilities, protocol endpoints) is visible to anyone who accesses the profile URL. Do not include sensitive personal information in Agent profiles.

16.2 API, MCP, and A2A Request Data

Data transmitted through the REST API, MCP server, A2A endpoint, or OpenClaw integration (including outbound mail submissions, recipient addresses, document files, agent metadata, and webhook payloads) is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256). We log request/response metadata (endpoint, status code, latency, IP, user agent, agent identifier, idempotency key) to operate, secure, and bill the Platform. API access logs are retained for twelve (12) months. We do not read or analyze the body of your document submissions beyond what is necessary to print, address, weigh, postage, and dispatch the piece.

16.3 API Keys and Credentials

API keys (member, agent, and facility scopes) and webhook signing keys are issued by the Platform and shown only once at creation. We store a salted hash of the secret portion server-side; we cannot recover the original secret. You are responsible for protecting these credentials. See the Terms of Service for the full credential-security obligations and the Company's position on liability for credential compromise.

16.4 Agent Decision and Activity Logs

For accounts with agents configured, decision logs — which rule triggered, what action was taken, the MAILBOX.md version in effect at the time, and the corresponding API/MCP context — are available to the Account Holder via the dashboard and API. Decision logs are retained for the duration of your account plus five (5) years.

16.5 Webhook Security

Webhook payloads are signed with your webhook signing key (HMAC-SHA256, format whsk_prefix:t=ts,v1=hmac) so that you can verify their authenticity. We recommend always verifying webhook signatures and rotating signing keys periodically. Webhook delivery logs (event metadata, delivery attempts, response status) are retained for twelve (12) months and are also surfaced to you via the dashboard's API Logs / Webhook Sandbox view.

17. Outbound Mail and Document Privacy

17.1 Outbound Document Content

When you submit a document for outbound mailing, the PDF (or other supported format) is uploaded to our private object storage, encrypted at rest, and transmitted to the assigned facility's production system for printing. The document is accessible only to (a) you and any agent credentials you have authorized, (b) authorized Company personnel and the facility's production staff with a legitimate operational need to print, envelope, weigh, and dispatch the piece, and (c) law enforcement pursuant to valid legal process. We do not read, parse, train models on, or sell the contents of your documents.

17.2 Fulfillment Photo Proof

For each outbound mail piece, the facility may capture photo evidence of one or more steps in the production lifecycle (printed pages, sealed envelope, postage label, carrier drop-off). These photos are stored with the same encryption and access controls as your document and are surfaced to you via the dashboard, REST API, MCP, and webhooks. Photo proof documents the drop-off event and does not constitute proof of delivery.

17.3 Recipient Address Data

Recipient addresses you submit are used solely to address and dispatch the corresponding mail piece, to compute postage, and to satisfy carrier tendering requirements. We do not enrich, sell, share, or repurpose recipient address data for marketing, advertising, list-building, or any other purpose.

17.4 Document Retention

Outbound document files are retained for the duration of your account (so that you and your agent can audit historical sends) plus up to seven (7) years for tax, billing-dispute, and audit purposes, after which they are deleted or irreversibly anonymized. You may request earlier deletion of specific document files by emailing privacy [at] mailbox [dot] bot, subject to legal-hold and active-litigation exceptions described in Section 8.

17.5 Inbound Mail and Package Services — Forthcoming

Inbound virtual mailbox service and physical-package receiving are in restricted private beta and are not generally available. Privacy practices specific to those services (intake exterior photography, content scanning, package storage, forwarding, and CMRA-related handling) will be described in detail when those services are released to general availability. Members participating in private beta receive a separate beta addendum that supplements this Privacy Policy.

18. Changes to This Privacy Policy

18.1 Notification of Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make material changes, we will:
