Privacy Policy

Overview

ProcureTap ("we," "us," or "our") operates the procuretap.com website and platform. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

We believe in transparency and simplicity. We collect only what we need to run the platform, we do not sell your data, and we give you control over your information.

Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect:

• Email address -- required for account creation and communication
• Name -- to personalize your experience
• Company name -- to help tailor bid recommendations to your business
• Password -- stored securely using industry-standard hashing (we never store plaintext passwords)

Usage Information

As you use the platform, we collect:

• Search queries -- to improve search results and power personalized recommendations
• Bid views -- to understand which opportunities interest you and suggest similar ones
• Saved searches and alerts -- to deliver the notifications you configure
• Industry and location preferences -- to customize your experience

Analytics Data

We use Fathom Analytics for website analytics. Fathom is a privacy-first analytics tool that does not use cookies, does not track individuals across sites, and is fully GDPR, CCPA, and PECR compliant. Fathom collects aggregate page view data without identifying individual users. No personal data is sent to Fathom.

Payment Information

Payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or full card details on our servers. Stripe provides us with a token and the last four digits of your card for display purposes only.

How We Use Your Information

• Account management -- to create and maintain your account, authenticate logins, and manage your subscription
• Personalized recommendations -- to match you with relevant procurement opportunities based on your industry, location, and search history
• Email alerts -- to send bid notifications you have configured, account updates, and important service announcements
• Platform improvement -- to understand how our features are used and where we can improve
• Customer support -- to respond to your questions and resolve issues

Third-Party Services

We use a limited number of trusted third-party services to operate ProcureTap:

We Do Not Sell Your Data

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. Period. Our business model is subscription revenue, not data brokering.

Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days, except where we are legally required to retain certain records (such as billing history for tax purposes).

Usage data such as search queries and bid views are retained in anonymized, aggregate form for platform improvement even after account deletion.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including:

• Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS) on all connections
• Passwords hashed using industry-standard algorithms
• Infrastructure hosted on Cloudflare's global network with built-in DDoS protection
• Regular security reviews of our codebase and dependencies

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access -- request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• Correction -- update or correct inaccurate information
• Deletion -- request that we delete your account and personal data
• Export -- receive your data in a portable format
• Opt out -- unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time (transactional emails related to your account will still be sent)

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@procuretap.com. We will respond within 30 days.

Cookies

ProcureTap uses only essential cookies required for authentication and session management. We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party marketing cookies. Our analytics provider, Fathom, is entirely cookie-free.

Children's Privacy

ProcureTap is a business platform not directed at individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or through a notice on the platform. Your continued use of ProcureTap after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
