Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 1, 2026

Overview

NeuroBase is a research platform that helps parents and clinicians find and share neuroscience evidence for neurodivergent children. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights. NeuroBase is operated in the United States and this policy is governed by US law.

What we collect

Account information — When you sign up, we collect your email address through Supabase authentication (magic link or Google OAuth). We do not store passwords.

Child profiles — You may create one or more child profiles containing a name or alias, age, diagnoses, co-conditions, topic interests, and zip code. This information is used solely to personalise your research feed and match nearby clinical trials. We strongly encourage you to use a nickname or initials rather than your child's full legal name.

Care team and parent contact emails — Parent accounts can save a care team email address on a child profile so research packages can be shared directly. Clinician and organisation accounts can save a parent email for the same purpose. These addresses are used only for sharing initiated by you — NeuroBase does not use them for marketing.

Saved content and activity — We store bookmarks (saved articles) and research packages you create or share, linked to your account and child profile.

Email preferences — If you opt in to the weekly digest, we record that preference and track when the last digest was sent. You can opt out at any time from within the app or via the unsubscribe link in any digest email.

How we use your data

Personalised feed — your child's diagnoses and topic interests are used to rank and filter research articles.
Clinical trial matching — zip code is converted to coordinates to calculate distance to trial sites. The coordinates are not stored.
Weekly digest — if enabled, we email a curated selection of new research matched to your child's profile.
Research sharing — when you share a package, we email the recipient with a link. No NeuroBase account is required to view it.
AI summaries — article abstracts and clinical trial eligibility criteria are sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate plain-language summaries. Only article content is sent — your personal data and child profile are not included in these requests.

Third-party services

We use the following services to operate NeuroBase:

Service	Purpose
Supabase	Authentication, user data, and database
Anthropic (Claude)	AI plain-language summaries of articles and trials
Resend	Transactional email — digests and share notifications
Upstash	Caching layer for search and intervention data
Typesense	Full-text search index for PubMed articles

We do not sell your data to any third party or use it for advertising.

Child data

Child profiles describe minors, but the account holder is always a parent, guardian, or clinician — not the child. We do not knowingly create accounts for children under 13. If you believe a child has created an account directly, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Data retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete a child profile, its associated bookmarks, trial matches, and share history are permanently removed. If you delete your account, all data linked to it is deleted.

Your rights

Access — you can view all data we hold through the app (profiles, bookmarks, shares).
Correction — you can update your child profile at any time from the Profile page.
Deletion — you can delete individual child profiles or your entire account.
Unsubscribe — you can opt out of the weekly digest in Settings or via the unsubscribe link in any email.

Contact

Questions or requests about your data — including account deletion — can be sent to insights@neurobase.us. We will respond within 30 days.
