Information we collect
We only collect what the product genuinely needs. That falls into four groups:
- Financial inputs — monthly rent, salary, existing obligations, down-payment, loan tenure and interest rate you enter into the calculator. These live in your browser session unless you generate a HomeIQ Report.
- Report lead details — when you generate a PDF report, we ask for your name, email address, and (optionally) phone number so we can label the report and send it to you.
- Uploaded floor plans — if you use the Vastu Analyzer, the PDF, PNG or JPG you upload is used once, in-memory, to extract room directions. We do not persist the original file.
- Product usage — standard web analytics (pages viewed, referring source, device class). We do not use fingerprinting or third-party ad trackers.
How we use it
- To compute your affordability, loan, market and investment reads using our own Core calculation engines that run in your browser.
- To send Vastu floor plans to our AI provider so it can identify the direction of key rooms, then return a scored advisory read to you.
- To assemble your HomeIQ Report PDF and email it to the address you provided.
- To track aggregate product usage so we know what to improve. We never sell or share individual profiles.
How we handle floor-plan uploads
Floor plans deserve special care because they reveal the layout of your future home.
- Uploads are limited to 8 MB and accepted only as PDF, PNG or JPG.
- The file is rasterised in memory, downscaled to a canonical 1600-px canvas, and forwarded to our AI provider (see below).
- We do not store the original file on our servers. The extracted room-direction JSON is persisted only when it forms part of a HomeIQ Report.
- Password-protected PDFs are rejected — we cannot bypass encryption.
Third-party services
To deliver the product, we send parts of your data to trusted providers. Each has been chosen for its posture on privacy and its role is strictly scoped.
- Anthropic (Claude Opus) — receives your Vastu floor-plan image and returns extracted room directions. Governed by Anthropic's commercial terms and privacy policy.
- MongoDB Atlas — stores generated HomeIQ Reports (report ID, lead name/email/phone, and the calculation snapshot) so you can download them again later.
- Hosting / CDN — the site and API are served through a managed cloud environment; standard operational logs (IP, user-agent, timestamps) are retained for a short window for security.
- Email delivery — when configured, transactional email (your report PDF) is sent through Resend. Only your name, email and the PDF attachment are transmitted.
Data security
- All traffic to and from HomeIQ is served over HTTPS.
- Report data is stored in a private database not exposed to the public internet.
- We limit internal access to production data to the small team that operates HomeIQ.
- You can request deletion of any report you generated by emailing the contact address below with the report ID.
Your choices
- You can use the landing page and all calculators without providing any personal information.
- The Vastu Analyzer requires an uploaded floor plan or a manual room description — beyond that, no personal identifier is required.
- A HomeIQ Report requires a name and email so we can deliver it. Phone number is optional.
- To ask us to delete your report or lead record, send us the report ID via the contact channel below.
