Last updated: June 1, 2026 · Contact: support@communityvault.ai
1. About This Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Wealth Building Academy LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, discloses, and protects information in connection with CommunityVault.ai (the “Service”), a software-as-a-service platform for homeowners associations (HOAs), condominium associations, community associations, nonprofit organizations, trustees, board members, property managers, and residents.
By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. CommunityVault.ai is a software provider only; we are not a law firm, accounting firm, property manager, insurer, engineering firm, or compliance authority.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information:
a. Account & Organization Information
Names, email addresses, phone numbers, organization/community name and type, role (administrator, board member, resident, viewer), authentication credentials, and subscription billing details. Payments are processed by Stripe; we never see or store full card numbers. CommunityVault does not process dues, assessments, or other payments between your organization and its members.
b. Uploaded Documents & HOA Records
Documents and records that you or your organization upload, including bylaws, CC&Rs, rules and regulations, meeting minutes, financial reports, budgets, contracts, insurance documents, legal notices, architectural requests, violations, maintenance records, resident communications, and historical records. These materials, together with text extracted from them, are stored and processed to provide the Service.
c. Resident & Member Data
Information about residents and members that your organization chooses to enter or upload, such as names, unit/lot identifiers, contact details, request history, and correspondence. Your organization is the controller of this data and is solely responsible for the lawfulness of providing it to us.
d. Board Member & Administrator Data
Roles, permissions, activity history, approvals, votes, assigned tasks, and other governance-related records associated with board members and administrators.
e. Email & Communications
Messages, notices, support inquiries, and other communications you send to us by email or through the Service, and records of communications sent through the Service. When you use our contact form or request a demo, we collect your name, email address, phone number (if provided), organization name and type, and your message.
f. Metadata & Usage Data
Technical and usage metadata such as IP address, device and browser type, timestamps, pages viewed, feature usage, document upload and access logs, search queries, file types and sizes, and audit-trail entries (uploads, approvals, searches, and document access).
g. Cookies & Analytics
Information collected through cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy and in Section 7 below.
3. How We Use Information
We use information to: (a) provide, operate, maintain, and secure the Service; (b) extract, index, categorize, summarize, and enable search of uploaded documents; (c) authenticate users and enforce role-based access; (d) process payments and manage subscriptions; (e) respond to support requests; (f) monitor, audit, and improve the Service; (g) detect, prevent, and respond to fraud, abuse, and security incidents; and (h) comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.
We do not sell your personal information.
4. AI Processing of Your Data
The Service uses AI to extract text from uploaded documents, build a search index (embeddings), suggest categories, write summaries, and answer questions about your organization’s documents. Our AI provider is OpenAI, accessed through the OpenAI API.
Your original files are kept in our file storage. When a document is a scanned image or scanned PDF, a copy of that file is sent to OpenAI so its text can be read (OCR). Otherwise, only the document text and questions needed for a request are sent to OpenAI. In both cases, OpenAI processes the data solely to return results for your organization. Under OpenAI’s API data-usage policy, content sent through the API is not used to train OpenAI’s models, and it may be kept by OpenAI for up to 30 days for abuse monitoring before being deleted. We do not use your documents to train any AI model of our own. AI-generated output may be inaccurate or incomplete and is provided for informational purposes only; see our Disclaimer & AI Usage Disclaimer.
6. Service Providers & Integrations
We use the following service providers to run the Service. Each processes information only to provide its service to us, under its own terms and security practices.
| Provider | What they do for us |
|---|---|
| Supabase | Database, user sign-in (authentication), and file storage for uploaded documents |
| Vercel | Application hosting and delivery, and privacy-friendly website analytics (Vercel Web Analytics) |
| OpenAI | AI document assistant: text extraction, search embeddings, summaries, and AI-generated answers |
| Resend | Transactional email, such as invitations, request updates, and notifications |
| Stripe | Subscription payment processing. Stripe handles your card details; we never see or store full card numbers |
We will update this list if our providers change. We are not responsible for the independent acts or omissions of these providers beyond our arrangements with them. If you connect a third-party integration to the Service, your use of that integration is governed by the third party’s terms and privacy policy.
8. Access Controls & Visibility
The Service supports document visibility levels such as board-only, resident-visible, and private/admin-only. Visibility, permissions, and access are configured and controlled by your organization’s administrators and authorized users. You and your organization are responsible for correctly classifying documents and assigning permissions. We are not responsible for misconfiguration of visibility settings, the over- or under-sharing of documents resulting from your configuration, or the actions of your organization’s users.
9. Data Retention & Deletion
While your account is active, we keep your organization’s data so we can provide the Service. You can export your records at any time.
When your account closes — because you cancel and your paid period ends, or a free trial ends without a paid plan — your organization’s data stays available for export for 30 days. After those 30 days, we permanently delete it.
If you ask us to delete your data by emailing support@communityvault.ai, we permanently delete your organization’s data — documents, member records, and AI search indexes — within 30 days of confirming the request comes from an authorized administrator. Administrators can also delete all uploaded documents and their AI search index at any time using the “Delete all data” button in the app’s Migration Assistant.
Backups. The 30-day deletion timeline includes copies held in our database backups.
Records we must keep. We may keep limited records where the law requires it, such as billing and transaction records.
AI provider. Text sent to OpenAI to provide AI features may be kept by OpenAI for up to 30 days for abuse monitoring and is then deleted, under OpenAI’s API data-usage policy.
Who can request deletion
Organization administrators can request deletion of their organization’s data. Residents, members, and other individuals should send requests to their organization’s administrator or to us at support@communityvault.ai; where the organization controls the data, we may route the request to it.
10. Security
We implement administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information, including encryption in transit, access controls, per-organization data isolation, and activity logging. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. See our Data Processing & Security Policy for more detail, or our Security Overview for a plain-language summary.
11. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (including under the California Consumer Privacy Act/CPRA and similar U.S. state laws), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, and to opt out of certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact support@communityvault.ai. We will verify your request and respond as required by applicable law. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. Where your organization is the controller of the data, we may direct your request to that organization.
12. Children's Privacy
The Service is intended for use by adults in connection with community governance. It is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 where applicable), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact support@communityvault.ai.
13. U.S. Processing & International Users
The Service is operated from the United States and intended for U.S.-based organizations. If you access the Service from outside the United States, you understand that your information will be processed in the United States, where data-protection laws may differ from those in your location.
14. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes are effective when posted, with the “Effective date” updated above. Material changes may be communicated through the Service or by email. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
