Privacy Policy

Last updated September 28, 2026

This is what Beam collects, why, and what you can do about it. The short version: we keep what we need to run your account, and your screen is never recorded.

What we collect

Account: your email, your password (stored hashed by our authentication provider — we never see it), your plan, and the Stripe identifiers for your subscription.

Sessions: each session's code, status, viewer counts and start and end times, plus how many sessions you've run this month to apply your plan's limit.

Referrals: if you signed up through someone's referral link, the link between both accounts.

Security: the IP address of whoever opens a session link, used only to limit repeated join attempts.

What we don't collect

Your screen is streamed live and is not recorded or stored by Beam. We don't use your camera or microphone. Viewers don't create an account and we don't ask for their name. We never see or store card numbers — Stripe handles payment details.

How we use it

To run your account and sessions, apply your plan's limits, bill you, pay out referrals, keep the service secure, and send you emails about your account. We don't sell your data or use it for advertising.

Who processes it

Supabase (database and sign-in), LiveKit (relays the live video; the stream is encrypted in transit), Stripe (payments) and Vercel (hosting). Each one gets only what it needs to do its part.

Cookies

Only the ones Beam needs to work: one that keeps you logged in and one that remembers your language. No tracking or advertising cookies.

How long we keep it

Your account data stays while your account exists. When you delete it, your profile, sessions and usage go with it. Stripe keeps billing records for as long as the law requires.

Your rights

You can ask for a copy of your data, correct it, or have your account deleted. Cancel your subscription any time from Billing. To delete your account, write to us and we'll do it within 30 days.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we'll tell you by email or in the app before it takes effect.
