Data We Collect
When you create an account, we store your email address and authentication credentials via Supabase (our authentication provider). If you subscribe to GlitchBox Pro, Stripe (our payment processor) processes your payment information — we never see, access, or store your card details, bank account information, or other financial data. We use localStorage to save your preferences (knob layout, skin, consent status) on your device only; this data is never transmitted to our servers.
Camera & Microphone
GlitchBox accesses your camera and microphone solely for real-time visual effects and audio-reactive features. Video and audio are processed entirely on your device using WebGL and the Web Audio API. No video, audio, or image data is ever transmitted to, stored on, or processed by our servers. Recordings are saved locally to your device and are under your sole control.
No Tracking
We do not use analytics, advertising trackers, cookies, or third-party tracking scripts. We do not sell, share, rent, or otherwise disclose your personal information to any third party for marketing or advertising purposes.

We use the following third-party services: Supabase (authentication and database), Stripe (payment processing), and Vercel (hosting). Each service has its own privacy policy governing how it handles your data. We encourage you to review their respective policies.
