Privacy notice

The controller of the data described here is Astrely, Nicosia, Cyprus.

• Your account: the e-mail address, name and profile picture your sign-in provider gives us (Google, or the e-mail and password you choose), your time zone, your appearance choice, your confirmation that you are 16 or older, the record of when you allowed AI-written texts, and the Sun sign of your own chart once you save one.
• Your charts: for each chart you save, the birth date, the birth time (or that it is unknown), the place you chose with its coordinates and time zone, the label you give it, your house and node settings, and the positions computed from them (planets by sign and house, angles and aspects).
• In your browser: The birth date you enter on our start page is kept in your browser's local storage so we can greet you with your sign next time; it stays on your device until you clear your browser data, and it is not sent to us until you ask for a chart.
• Texts written for your charts: the chart summaries and interpretations you ask for, stored with the chart, and your daily readings, each with the model that wrote it and when.
• AI usage records: for each AI request, the time, the model, token counts, cost and outcome, never the text; the daily totals and the monthly allowance counters of your plan.
• Technical logs: the time, address and browser of requests, and error reports made of codes and identifiers only. Your birth details, your chart labels and the texts written for you never appear in a log.

You can keep a chart for someone else, under a nickname you choose. Their birth details are personal data: enter them only with that person's agreement. Astrely writes no daily readings for other people's charts, and an interpretation of one describes the positions only; the nickname never reaches the AI.

• To provide the service you signed up for (your account, your saved charts, the horoscopes and the calculator): the contract between you and us.
• To write texts for your charts with AI, which only happens after you allow it and stops when you withdraw that permission: your consent.
• To keep the service secure, within its limits and free of abuse (the usage records and technical logs), and to hold charts you keep for other people: our legitimate interest in running a safe service, weighed against yours.
• We do not sell your data, show ads, or use advertising or analytics cookies.
• No decision with legal or similarly significant effects is made about you by automated means. A horoscope or a reading is a text for reflection and entertainment, not a decision.

What crosses to the AI providers: computed positions only: signs, degrees, houses and aspects of a chart, and, for a daily reading, the positions of that day's sky. The horoscopes for the twelve signs are written from the sky's positions alone and carry no data about anyone.

What never crosses: your birth date, birth time, birth place, coordinates, chart labels, name, e-mail address and account identity.

The texts are written by AI models by Anthropic and Google, served through OpenRouter on google-vertex/europe and google-vertex/eu, with OpenRouter's data_collection: deny routing and no prompt logging at OpenRouter. OpenRouter, Inc. (USA) routes each request; Google Cloud Vertex AI in EU regions runs the models. Google may retain prompts flagged by its abuse monitoring for up to 90 days. The providers we use do not train on what they receive.

We ask for your permission before the first AI-written text for one of your charts. You can withdraw it at any time in Settings; your saved charts stay available without new texts. If the companies that process this data, or what we send them, change, we ask for your permission again before using AI.

Your data is stored with Google Cloud (Firebase) in the European Union, and the Astrely servers run in the European Union. Only the Astrely server code reads or writes it; your browser never talks to the database directly. OpenRouter, Inc. is in the USA: requests routed through it are covered by the safeguards EU law requires for such transfers, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.

• Your account: until you delete it.
• Your charts, with the summaries and interpretations written for them: until you delete the chart or your account.
• Your daily readings: 90 days, then they are deleted automatically.
• AI request records: 14 days. Daily usage totals for your account: 90 days. Monthly allowance counters: as long as the account exists.
• Daily usage totals with no account identity: up to 400 days.
• Technical logs: a short period, about 30 days, to keep the service running and secure.
• Deleted data remains in encrypted backups for up to 7 days.
• The horoscopes for the twelve signs hold no personal data and are kept as the site's archive.

• Delete a chart from its page; its readings go with it.
• Deleting your account (Settings) erases everything above and your sign-in, normally within about an hour. We first ask you to sign in again, so that a forgotten open session cannot erase your work. If a backup ever has to be restored, the erasure is repeated automatically.
• Settings offers a download of everything we hold about you (your profile, charts, readings, usage records and AI request records) in a machine-readable format.

Astrely is for people aged 16 or older. We ask you to confirm your age when you create an account, and a chart for yourself with a birth date that makes you younger than 16 is refused and not stored.

Astrely sets two strictly necessary cookies: __session, which keeps you signed in for up to 14 days, and theme, which remembers whether you chose light or dark mode on this device (for up to a year). There are no tracking cookies and no third-party scripts.

Your data is private to your account. There is no way to share a chart with anyone else today; if sharing is added, this notice will be updated first. Google Cloud and the AI providers named above process data on our instructions only, as described here.

You can see and edit your data in the app, download it, withdraw your permission for AI-written texts, object to processing based on our legitimate interest, and delete your charts or your whole account. You can also complain to the data-protection authority of the country where you live; in Cyprus that is the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection. The terms of use describe the service itself.
