This is a plain description of what we store, not a template. If something here changes, this page changes with it.
The free read needs no account
You can take the 12-question quiz at /quiz without signing up. Your answers are processed in your browser session to produce the result; we do not require an email address or any account to use the free read.
What we store, and why
Your email address
Collected when you create an account to buy a plan. Used to sign you in, deliver the plan, send delivery and payment receipts, and reply if you write to us.
Quiz answers
Your answers to the free 12-question read. If you proceed to buy a plan, these answers carry forward so you are not asked the same questions twice.
Paid intake answers
The 19 further questions asked after checkout: your cat's age, sex and neuter status, household and room layout, and what you have already tried. These are used to assemble your plan and are read by the person who reviews it before delivery.
Payment information
Handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your card number — Stripe passes us confirmation that payment succeeded and a transaction reference, nothing more.
Who processes it
- Convex — hosts the database: your account, quiz and intake answers, and your delivered plan.
- Clerk — handles sign-in and authentication.
- Stripe — handles payment. Card details never touch our servers.
- Resend — sends transactional email (account confirmation, plan delivery, receipts).
- PostHog — product analytics on this website (which pages are visited, which buttons are used) so we can tell what is actually working. This does not include your quiz or intake answers.
None of your quiz answers, intake answers, or plan content are sold or used to train any third party's model.
How long we keep it
We keep your account, intake answers, and delivered plan for as long as your account exists, so you can come back and read your plan later — the plan you buy is yours permanently. If you ask us to delete your data, we remove it and do not keep a standing copy beyond what Stripe or Resend retain in their own systems for legal or billing-record reasons on their side, which is outside our control.
How to have it deleted
Email hello@thresholdcat.com from the address on your account and ask us to delete your data. We will confirm once it is done. There is no self-serve delete button on the site yet — if that bothers you, say so in the email and we will still handle it by hand.
