Privacy and terms
Your chat file never leaves your device. Paid reports use a sample of it, deleted once written. Nothing is sold, and the other person is never contacted.

Who we are
VibeCheck is the service at vibecheckreport.netlify.app, and the controller of the personal data described here. Questions about your data, problems or refunds: vibecheck@wemakesense.org.
Your free numbers
Your chat file is read inside your own browser. It is never uploaded and we never see it.
Paid reports
To write a report we receive the first names in the chat, the statistics worked out from it, and a sample of messages of up to about 90,000 characters. This is stored with our host, Netlify, and written into your report by Google's Gemini, with Anthropic's Claude as a backup. Under their paid terms, neither trains its models on this data.
The sample is deleted once your report is written, and after 7 days at the most. Your report stays at your private link until you delete it with the button at the bottom of the report. Anyone with the link can read it.
The other person in your chat
Their messages are used only to write your reading. They are never contacted and nothing is shared with them. We rely on legitimate interests: helping you understand your own relationship, while using as little of their data as possible and deleting it promptly. Chats can include sensitive details such as health or beliefs; we don't look for them or use them for anything else. If you are the other person, email vibecheck@wemakesense.org.
Payments
Stripe handles payments and sends your receipt, which includes your report link. We never see your card number. We receive your email address, the amount and whether payment succeeded.
Cookies and analytics
If you tap Accept on our cookie notice, Google Analytics counts visits and the pages and buttons used. It never receives your chat, your report or your report link, and it never loads on report pages. Without your consent it is not loaded at all. We use no advertising cookies. Your browser also stores your settings and the list of reports bought on that device.
Where your data goes
Netlify, Anthropic, Stripe and Google may process data outside the UK and EEA, including in the United States, under safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct, delete or receive a copy of your data, or object to how we use it. Email vibecheck@wemakesense.org and we will reply within one month. You can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
What VibeCheck is
A reading of a WhatsApp chat between two people, for reflection and entertainment. It is not therapy or medical, legal or relationship advice, and it can be wrong. If you feel unsafe in a relationship, contact emergency services or a domestic abuse helpline.
Using it
You must be 18 or over and part of the chat you upload. Don't use VibeCheck to monitor, pressure or harm the other person, or publish their messages. Reports are written by AI from a sample of your chat and can misread tone or context. The example reports include extras, such as a birth chart and card spreads, that automatic reports don't.
Buying a report
Prices are shown before you pay. Each report is a single payment with no subscription. Writing starts as soon as you pay and usually takes a few minutes; failed parts are retried automatically. Lite can be upgraded to Full for the difference, by uploading the same chat again.
Refunds
By paying, you agree that your report starts straight away, so your 14-day right to cancel ends once it is delivered. You get a full refund if your report isn't delivered within 7 days, is incomplete and can't be fixed, or is clearly about the wrong chat. Email vibecheck@wemakesense.org within 30 days with your report link. Your statutory rights are not affected.
Liability and law
We take reasonable care. Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or anything else that can't be limited by law; otherwise our liability is limited to what you paid. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If we change them, the date at the top changes too.
