Privacy Policy

How HamiltonRC collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our platform.

Last updated: June 22, 2026

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account — whether by email/password or social sign-in — we collect:

Content You Create

When you use HamiltonRC's tools, we store content tied to your account:

Usage Data

We automatically collect technical data when you visit hamiltonai.com:

We do not collect payment card details directly — payments are handled by our payment processor and we only receive a transaction confirmation and subscription status.

2. How We Use Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your data to train AI models.

3. Social Sign-In (Google & Facebook)

You may sign in using your Google or Facebook account. When you do, those services share a limited set of profile data with us through a secure OAuth 2.0 flow. We only request the minimum permissions needed to create your account.

What Google shares with us

  • Your email address
  • Your name (first and last)
  • Your Google profile ID (used as a unique identifier)

What Facebook shares with us

  • Your email address
  • Your name
  • Your Facebook user ID (used as a unique identifier)

We do not receive your Google or Facebook password, your friends list, your posts, or any data beyond the above. After your account is created, the social token is stored locally in your browser session only — we do not retain a persistent copy of your Google or Facebook access token on our servers.

Your use of Google sign-in is also subject to Google's Privacy Policy. Your use of Facebook sign-in is subject to Meta's Privacy Policy.

4. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We share your data only with the following service providers, solely to operate HamiltonRC:

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Your account and setup data is stored on AWS infrastructure, including AWS Cognito (authentication) and Amazon S3 (setup sheet files). AWS acts as a data processor under a signed data processing agreement.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to measure site usage. Google receives anonymized usage events and approximate location. You can opt out via Google's opt-out tool or a browser extension that blocks Analytics.

AI Model Providers

When you submit a tuning request, the text you enter (car description, handling problems) is sent to an AI model to generate advice. We do not include your name or email in these requests. AI provider terms prohibit using your inputs to train their models.

Payment Processor

Subscription payments are handled by a PCI-compliant payment processor. We receive only your subscription status — never your full card number, CVV, or billing address.

We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for their own marketing purposes. We may disclose data if required by law (e.g. a valid court order), and will notify you when legally permitted to do so.

5. Storage & Security

Your account data is stored in AWS Cognito (us-east-1 region) and your setup files in Amazon S3, both protected by AWS's enterprise security controls including encryption at rest and in transit (TLS 1.2+).

We retain your account and setup data for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion, we will remove your account and associated data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain records by law.

No system is 100% secure. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately at hello@hamiltonrc.com.

6. Cookies & Local Storage

HamiltonRC uses a small number of browser storage mechanisms:

We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or cross-site tracking. You can clear your browser's localStorage at any time to sign out of HamiltonRC.

7. Your Rights

Regardless of where you live, you may contact us at any time to exercise the following:

Access

Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

Correction

Ask us to correct inaccurate information tied to your account.

Deletion

Request that we delete your account and all associated data.

Portability

Receive your setup sheet data in a machine-readable format (JSON).

Objection

Opt out of analytics tracking at any time using Google's opt-out tool.

Withdraw Consent

Disconnect your Google or Facebook account by deleting your HamiltonRC account.

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@hamiltonrc.com from the address associated with your account. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Children's Privacy

HamiltonRC is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has created an account, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

9. California Residents (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act:

To submit a CCPA request, email hello@hamiltonrc.com with "CCPA Request" in the subject line.

10. EEA & UK Residents (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, our legal basis for processing your personal data is:

Your data is stored in the United States (AWS us-east-1). When transferring data from the EEA to the US, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable. You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the platform evolves. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of HamiltonRC after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
