Privacy Policy

1.Who We Are

Versie is a product of Z12 Ventures LLC (“Versie,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a limited liability company. Our product makes version control invisible for non-technical software builders. The Service is offered in free and paid tiers, including locally-run tools and a hosted web dashboard at versie.co.

By using any Versie product, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this Privacy Policy. This policy applies to versie.co and all Versie software.

2.What We Collect

Versie is a local-first tool. Your source code, file contents, and repository data never leave your machine under any circumstances.

Depending on which features you use, we may collect:

• —Account information: Your GitHub username and email address, provided when you sign in with GitHub
• —Project activity: Version control event timestamps, commit messages, file change counts, and deployment history — the data that powers your project timeline and dashboard
• —Anonymized error diagnostics: The type and structure of version control errors, and whether a fix was attempted and succeeded. Personal information is removed from error data before it leaves your device. This data is not linked to your identity or your repository.
• —Billing information: Managed by Stripe. We store only a billing reference ID — never card numbers or payment details
• —Notification preferences: Your email or webhook settings for deployment alerts, if configured

3.Error Diagnostics

When error diagnostics are enabled, Versie’s locally-run tools collect anonymized information about version control errors to improve error detection for all users. Personal information is removed from error data before it leaves your device. Diagnostic data is not linked to your identity, your repository, or your project. We analyze this data periodically to improve error handling and make fixes available to all users automatically.

You may opt out at any time — per project by saying “turn off telemetry” in your AI coding tool, or globally by setting VERSIE_TELEMETRY=false in your environment. Opting out has no effect on any other functionality.

4.How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect solely to provide and improve the Service: to operate your account, display your project timeline and deployment history, process payments, send deployment notifications you’ve requested, improve error detection for all users, and understand how the product is used so we can improve it. We do not use your data for advertising. We do not sell your data. We do not use your data to train AI or machine learning models.

5.Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell your personal information. We work with third-party service providers for infrastructure, payments, and communications, each receiving only the data necessary to perform their function. A list of our sub-processors is available upon request at privacy@versie.co.

We will disclose data to legal authorities only when required by law or valid court order, and will notify affected users to the extent permitted. If the Versie product or its assets are sold or transferred, your data may transfer as part of that transaction. We will provide advance notice of any such transfer and any material change to how your data is handled.

6.International Data Transfers

Versie is operated from the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate. By using the Service, you acknowledge that your information may be subject to the laws of those jurisdictions, which may differ from the laws of your country of residence.

If you are located in the European Union or United Kingdom and have questions about how your data is handled, please contact us at privacy@versie.co.

7.Data Retention

• —Error diagnostic data: Retained for 12 months from collection date, then deleted. Aggregated statistics may be retained indefinitely
• —Analytics and session recording data: Retained for 12 months, then deleted or anonymized
• —Event data (Pro): Retained for the duration of your active subscription, plus 90 days after cancellation
• —Account data: Retained until you request deletion, plus 30 days thereafter
• —Billing records: Retained as required by applicable tax and financial regulations (typically 7 years)
• —API keys and OAuth tokens: Deleted immediately upon account deletion

8.Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data. We honor these rights regardless of your location:

• —Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• —Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data
• —Deletion: Request deletion of your account and associated data (subject to retention requirements above)
• —Portability: Request your event data in a machine-readable format (JSON)
• —Opt-out of diagnostics: Say “turn off telemetry” in your AI coding tool, or set VERSIE_TELEMETRY=false globally
• —Opt-out of analytics and session recording: Decline the consent banner (marketing site), or adjust your preference in dashboard account settings at any time
• —Withdraw consent: Disconnect your GitHub OAuth connection at any time via GitHub’s authorized applications settings

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below. We will respond within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

EU/UK Users (GDPR/UK GDPR): We process your data on the basis of contract performance (Pro account and billing data), legitimate interests (error diagnostics and product analytics to improve the service), and consent (marketing site analytics cookies and dashboard session recording). Your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States. You have the right to withdraw consent, object to processing on the basis of legitimate interests, and lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. Contact us at privacy@versie.co to exercise any of these rights.

California Users (CCPA/CPRA): We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. You may submit a request to know, delete, or correct by contacting us below.

9.Children’s Privacy

Versie is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 16, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child under 16 has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

10.Cookies, Analytics, and Tracking

Marketing site (versie.co)

We use PostHog to understand how visitors discover and navigate our website — page views, referral sources, and general usage patterns. This analytics tool uses cookies to identify unique visitors and track sessions across page loads. We do not use advertising cookies or share this data with ad networks.

If you are located in the EU or UK, a consent banner will appear on your first visit. Analytics cookies will only be set if you accept. If you decline, we collect no analytics data about your visit. Visitors outside the EU and UK are subject to analytics collection as described in this policy, consistent with applicable law.

Dashboard (logged-in users)

We use PostHog to track product usage within the dashboard — which features you use, how you navigate, and where you encounter friction. This helps us improve the product. Your account email address and current plan are associated with this usage data. For Pro users, this may include session recordings: anonymized replays of your interactions with the dashboard interface. Session recordings capture clicks, navigation, and UI interactions. They do not capture keystrokes, form input, passwords, or your source code.

You may opt out of dashboard analytics and session recording at any time from your account settings. Opting out has no effect on dashboard functionality.

What we do not do

We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, cross-site tracking, or behavioral advertising networks on any Versie surface. We do not sell analytics data.

11.Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy at any time. When we do, we will notify you by updating the date at the top of this page and, for material changes, by posting a notice on our website or contacting you directly. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
