Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026 — written in plain English, no legalese.
What we collect
The name you type at check-in — kept on your account if you are signed in; if you are not, it stays in your browser and nowhere else. The sign-in identifier you use with Clerk (a mobile number or an email address) is stored with us, linked to your account. Your conversations with the guide (your question and the reply) are stored when the conversation is saved to your account. And internal usage counters: how many free questions you have used today, and the expiry date of your pass.
Your selfie and your country
Your "Pharaoh Me" photo is sent to an image-generation provider (Fal) so it can produce the portrait, and is dropped on our side the moment the request finishes — it is not stored in our database and never comes back in any response. We read the country of your connection from the header our hosting platform puts on the request, purely to pick which currency to show you — we do not store it and do not attach it to your account.
What we use it for
Running the service and metering usage. Your request is sent to model providers so that it can be answered: Anthropic and Groq for text, Fal for images, Kling for video. Sign-in runs through Clerk, SMS (if you signed in with a mobile number) through Twilio, and your data is stored in a Postgres database on Neon.
Payment
Buying is not open right now, and no card details are taken from you at all. When it opens, visit tickets in US dollars will go through Stripe (Paymob was the rail for the old monthly EGP subscriptions, which are no longer offered). Either way, the card number is entered at the payment provider itself and never passes through our servers.
Cookies and analytics
Essential cookies, so that staying signed in works. Your choice in the cookie banner is stored in your own browser, not with us. No analytics tool is loaded in the app today — that optional consent is a gate for anything added later.
Storage and security
All traffic to the app runs over HTTPS. A mobile-number sign-in session expires after 90 days and is removed from the database; the lifetime of a Clerk session is set by Clerk’s own configuration.
Your rights
From the Account page you can, at any time: view your data, change your name and your language, or delete your account — deleting removes the account, your conversations, your sessions and your payment history from our database immediately.
Children
The service is for people aged 13 and over. If you are under 18, use the platform with the consent of a parent or guardian.
