What information we collect and how we use it

ERDLab collects the following information about you when you provide it to us and use our services:

Account and Profile Information

When you sign up, create a profile, set your email preferences, or pay for your subscription, ERDLab collects your email address and display name. We use this information to correctly identify you, communicate with you, and provide you with customer support. We also use this contact information for accounting and administrative purposes, for transactional emails including app and billing notifications, and to notify you about new features, releases, blog posts, and discounts.

User Created Content

As you work on your projects, ERDLab stores and maintains read-only access to the content you create, send, receive, and share. This includes any database models you create in or import to ERDLab. It also includes comments posted to your projects by you or your collaborators.
We use this information to securely store your work, provide access to your team members and the collaborators you designate, and to troubleshoot and/or diagnose any issues that may arise as you work on your projects.

Payment Information

We use Stripe to process all payments. Customers that purchase a paid ERDLab subscription provide us, or our payment processors, with billing details such as credit or debit card information, banking information, and billing addresses. When you purchase a subscription through one of our payment processors, we only receive billing address information about your card. ERDLab does not receive any information related to your card number, expiration date, or card security code.
We use your payment information in order to fulfil, track, and manage your subscription.
