Last updated: April 20, 2026
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) explains how Heitor Gandolfi Cardillo Desenvolvimento de Software Ltda (“Ripple,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects your (“you,” “your”) Personal Information when you use our web-based software-as-a-service (the “Services”). “Personal Information” refers to data that identifies, relates to, or could reasonably be associated with a particular individual.
By using our Services, you agree to the practices described in this Policy.
1. Personal Information We Collect
1.1 Types of Personal Information
- Account details: name, email address, and profile image provided by your identity provider (Google) when you sign in.
- Billing information: if you subscribe to a paid plan, our payment processor (Stripe) collects billing name, payment method details, and transaction history. We never store full payment card numbers on our servers.
- User Content: changelog entries, project names, slugs, images, and any other content you create or upload through the Services.
- Usage data: technical information such as IP address, browser type, device identifiers, pages visited, and timestamps, collected automatically when you use the Services.

We use cookies and local storage solely to:

- Monitor aggregate usage and diagnose errors.
We do not use third-party advertising cookies and we do not track users across unrelated websites.
5. Data Security
We apply reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect Personal Information, including encryption in transit, access controls, and monitoring. No online service can be 100% secure, and we encourage you to use a strong, unique password on your identity provider and enable two-factor authentication.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access the Personal Information we hold about you;
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
- Request deletion of your Personal Information;
- Request portability of your data in a commonly used format;
- Object to or restrict certain processing;
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- Lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@tryripple.co. We will respond within a reasonable time frame and may need to verify your identity before fulfilling the request.
7. Children’s Privacy
Ripple is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children. If we learn we have done so, we will delete the information promptly.
8. International Users and Data Transfers
We are based in Brazil. Some of our service providers are located in the United States, the European Union, and other regions. By using the Services from outside Brazil, you consent to the transfer of your Personal Information to servers operated by us and our providers in those jurisdictions. Where required, we rely on appropriate legal mechanisms to protect cross-border transfers.
9. Data Retention
We retain Personal Information only as long as necessary to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Data no longer needed is deleted or anonymized. Account data is retained while your account is active; upon account deletion, we remove or anonymize it within a reasonable period, subject to lawful retention requirements.
10. Third-Party Links
Our Services may include links to third-party websites or tools. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their policies before providing information.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may revise this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via the Services or by email. The date at the top of this page shows the last revision. Continued use of the Services after changes take effect means you accept the updated Policy.
