Website & Waitlist Privacy

Effective 15 June 2026

The short version: the only personal data this website collects is the email address you choose to give us on the beta waitlist, used for beta invites and launch news, nothing else. The site sets no cookies and runs no third-party analytics. Looking for how the app handles the things you log about your child? That's covered separately in the app privacy policy.

This policy covers this website and the beta waitlist only. The Pipkin iOS app is covered by its own privacy policy. "We" means Forge 9 Labs LTD, the company behind Pipkin and the data controller for the waitlist — company number 17317315, registered office 71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ, United Kingdom.

What we collect

If you join the waitlist, we collect the email address you enter and a one-word tag recording where you arrived from (for example "x" or "reddit"), taken from the link you clicked. That tag involves no cookies and no tracking scripts — it's a plain form field. The website itself sets no cookies and runs no third-party analytics.

What we use it for

TestFlight beta invitations, updates on the beta, and the App Store launch announcement. A couple of emails a month at most. We will never sell the list, share it with advertisers, or use it for anything beyond Pipkin.

Lawful basis

Consent (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(a)) — you typed your email in and pressed the button. You can withdraw consent at any time by clicking unsubscribe in any email or by emailing us; we'll remove you promptly.

Who processes it

Form submissions are received and stored by Netlify (our website host). To send emails we use an email service provider, where your address and source tag are stored until you unsubscribe. Both act as processors on our behalf.

How long we keep it

Until you unsubscribe, or 12 months after the App Store launch, whichever comes first — after that the waitlist has done its job and will be deleted.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you can ask for a copy of the data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to our processing. Email hello@pipkin.app and it will be handled by Forge 9 Labs LTD. If you're unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Changes to this policy

If the website ever starts collecting something new, this policy will be updated first. The effective date at the top always reflects the latest version.
