What we store
Thrift Mistress is built to hold as little of your information as possible. The only things we keep are:
- Your email address — it’s how you sign in (we use magic links, so there’s no password) and where your alerts go.
- Your hunts and feedback — the city, category, price cap, radius, and the plain-English notes you write about what you’re after, plus the thumbs-up / thumbs-down signals and email replies you send so we can tune what you see.
- Structured facts derived from public listings — things like price, category, condition, and neighborhood, which we extract so we can score how well a listing matches your hunts. We do not store or republish listing photos or the full listing text. When we’re done pulling the facts, the original content is discarded, and every alert links you back out to the original source.
What we never do
- We never sell your data — not your email, not your hunts, not anything. There is no ad business here.
- We never contact sellers on your behalf. You reach out to listings yourself. We’ll suggest what to offer, but the message is always yours to send.
- We never auto-send anything from your identity. Nothing goes out under your name or from your email account without you doing it.
Where your alerts come from
Alert emails are sent from alerts@thriftmistress.com. If you reply to one, that reply comes to us and is used only to refine your hunts — see “your hunts and feedback” above.
Payments
Payments for the Pro plan are handled entirely by Stripe, our payment processor. Your card details go straight to Stripe. We never see or store your card number.
Deleting your account and data
Email support@thriftmistress.com and ask us to delete your account. We’ll delete your account and the data associated with it within 7 days. No forms, no hoops.
Questions
