Last updated: May 22, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how The Media Shop ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use Tailnote (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to this policy.

Who is responsible for your data

The data controller for Tailnote is The Media Shop. Tailnote is a product operated by The Media Shop. Contact us through themediashop.co for privacy-related requests.

Information we collect

We collect information you provide and information generated through your use of the Service:

  • Account information: name, email address, and credentials managed through our authentication provider (Better Auth).
  • Organization and employee data: company name, job titles, contact fields, social links, signature content, and layout preferences you enter in the dashboard.
  • Uploaded assets: logos and images you upload for signatures (stored via Vercel Blob).
  • Billing information: subscription and payment details processed by Stripe. We do not store full payment card numbers on our servers.
  • Signature analytics (optional): when your organization enables click tracking, we log clicks on tracked links in signatures (for example, link URL and timestamp). When you separately enable open tracking, we log loads of a small tracking image in signatures you copy from Tailnote.
  • Usage and technical data: IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited, including through analytics tools described below.

How we use information

These providers process data on our behalf under their own terms and privacy policies. We share only what is necessary to provide the Service.

Data retention and security

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your data, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Your rights and choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export personal data, or to object to certain processing. To make a request, contact us through themediashop.co. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Children's privacy
