Privacy Policy
Last updated 28 September 2026
What we collect
Your name and email address; the projects and tasks you create; your settings (the day your week starts, the appearance, and when completed tasks are cleared); and your time zone, so dates show correctly. We use them only to run Overview for you.
When you sign in, we note the browser and IP address the session came from, and our server records the IP address of each request in its logs and uses it to limit repeated sign-in attempts. Overview's cookies only keep you signed in and protect its forms: there are no analytics or advertising cookies.
Who can read your tasks
Your name, your projects' names and your tasks' titles are encrypted in our database, so they can't be read there, or in its backups and copies. The keys are held by the Overview server, which uses them to show your tasks to you, so the service itself can technically read your tasks, and so can the people who run it. Everything else, such as dates, settings and your email address, is stored unencrypted.
Payments
Payments are made through Stripe and Onelink, Stripe's consumer brand, which handle your card and billing details under their own privacy policies. Your card number goes straight to them: we never see it, and we store no card details. We keep only a reference to your Stripe customer record, your plan, its status and when your trial ends.
Emails
Overview sends you sign-in codes. Stripe or Onelink sends the emails about your plan: when a trial starts and before it ends, before every renewal, your receipts, and anything about a failed payment or an expiring card. We may also write to you ourselves about your account, for example before a change to our terms.
Who we share with
Stripe and Onelink, for payments; Resend, which sends the sign-in codes; Railway, which hosts Overview and its database; and Sentry, which reports errors to us, when we have it switched on (it is set up to receive none of your tasks, names or form contents). Some of them are based outside the UK, so your data may be processed there. We never sell your data.
Supporters
If you become a Supporter, we'll ask you by email before we add you to the supporters newsletter or show your name and a social link on our supporter page, and we'll do either only if you say yes. You can ask us to take you off either at any time. The #supporters channel is on Discord, whose own privacy policy applies there.
Deleting your data
Email us at support@overview.works and we'll delete your account and everything in it: your name, email address, projects, tasks and settings. If you have a subscription, we cancel it first. Stripe and Onelink keep their records of your payments, as records of the sale. Deleting a task in Overview hides it; it is erased with your account.
Contact us
For a question about your data, or to ask for a copy of it or a correction, email support@overview.works. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, you can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, at ico.org.uk.
