Who we are
Videly (“Videly”, “we”, “us”) operates the Videly AI platform at videly.io, a web service for creating, editing, and rendering cinematic videos using generative-AI models.
This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect when you use the platform, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to videly.io, dev.videly.io, and any subdomain we control. By using Videly, you agree to the practices described here.
Information you give us
When you create an account or use Videly, you provide:
- Account details — name, email address, and a hashed password (or sign-in via Google/GitHub).
- Billing details — handled by our payment processor (Paddle). Videly receives a customer ID, subscription tier, transaction status, and last-four card digits, but never your full card number.
- Content you upload or generate — prompts, brand assets, scripts, and the rendered video output. This is stored to power the editor and saved as part of your project history.
- Support communications — anything you send to our support address.
Information we collect automatically
- Usage analytics — page views, feature interactions, and product events captured via PostHog. We use these to understand which features work and to fix bugs.
- Device + log data — IP address, browser type, operating system, and timestamps. These are recorded by our infrastructure (Cloudflare, Supabase) to keep the service running and to detect abuse.
- Cookies — session cookies for keeping you signed in, plus a small number of analytics cookies. We do not run advertising trackers.
How we use your information
- To provide the service — render your videos, save your projects, sync your settings.
- To bill — process subscriptions and credit packs, send receipts.
- To improve the product — analyse aggregated usage data to fix bugs and prioritise features.
- To communicate — send transactional emails (sign-in, password reset, billing) and, only with your consent, occasional product updates.
- To keep the platform safe — detect abuse, enforce our Terms, and respond to legal requests.
We do not sell or rent your personal data, and we do not use your content to train third-party foundation models on your behalf.
AI processing and your content
When you generate a video, the prompts and assets you submit are sent to AI model providers so they can produce the output you asked for. We currently use Anthropic, OpenAI, Replicate, and ElevenLabs. Each provider has its own privacy practices, which apply to the request data they receive.
To the extent these providers allow, we send prompts via API endpoints that do not contribute your content to their public model training. We cannot, however, control how those providers process their own logs. Do not submit personal data, secrets, or anything you would not be comfortable processing through a third-party API.
Third-party processors
Videly relies on a small set of trusted service providers to run the platform:
- Supabase — database, authentication, and file storage.
- Cloudflare — DNS, CDN, and DDoS protection.
- Paddle — payment processing and subscription billing.
- PostHog — product analytics.
- Anthropic, OpenAI, Replicate, ElevenLabs — AI model inference.
- Unsplash, Jamendo, Freesound — stock imagery and audio search.
Each of these processors receives only the data necessary to perform its function, under a written agreement that limits how they use it.
Your rights and choices
You can:
- Access or download the data tied to your account from the Settings page.
- Edit or delete your projects, brand assets, and generated content at any time.
- Close your account by emailing us. We will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required for billing records, fraud prevention, or applicable law.
- Opt out of non-essential analytics cookies via your browser settings.
- Object to or request a copy of how we process your personal data.
Data retention
We keep your account data for as long as your account is active. Project content and generated renders remain until you delete them. Billing records are kept for up to seven years to satisfy tax and accounting requirements. Backups are pruned on a rolling 30-day window.
Security
We protect your data with HTTPS in transit, encryption at rest, row-level access controls, and principle-of-least-privilege secrets management. No system is perfectly secure — if you discover a vulnerability please report it to us at the contact address below before disclosing publicly.
Children
Videly is not intended for use by anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.
International transfers
Videly is operated from servers that may be located outside your country of residence. By using the service, you consent to your data being transferred and processed in those locations under equivalent safeguards.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be announced inside the product and by email to active accounts. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page always reflects the current version.
