Privacy Policy

Effective July 20, 2026

thepour ("thepour," "we," "us") is operated by Intent Studios LLC, based in Cary, Illinois. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. thepour is an AI-powered cocktail app featuring Vesper, an AI bartender.

01Information we collect

• Account information. When you create an account, we collect your email address and a password (stored securely by our authentication provider — we never see your password in plain text).
• Content you provide. The ingredients in your bar, your taste profile, saved and favorited recipes, and the messages you send to Vesper.
• Bottle photos. If you use photo recognition to add a bottle, the image you capture is sent for identification and is not stored by us after processing.
• Limited technical data. Basic log and device information generated when you use the app, used to keep the service running and secure.

02How we use your information

• To provide the app — signing you in, saving your bar, and generating recipe suggestions.
• To power Vesper's responses based on what you tell her and what's in your bar.
• To send you essential account emails, such as sign-up confirmation and password resets.
• To send you marketing and product emails if you sign up for them, which you can opt out of at any time.
• To maintain, secure, and improve thepour.

03AI features and how they work

Vesper is powered by AI. To generate her replies, the messages you send and relevant context (such as your bar) are processed by Anthropic's Claude models running on Amazon Web Services (Amazon Bedrock). When you choose to hear a reply aloud, the text of that reply is sent to ElevenLabs to generate the audio. These providers process your data only to deliver the feature. When you use photo recognition to identify a bottle, the image is processed by a Claude vision model on Amazon Bedrock to identify the product. The image is used only to return the identification and is not retained.

04Service providers

We rely on a small set of trusted providers who process data on our behalf:

• Supabase — account authentication and database storage.
• Amazon Web Services (Amazon Bedrock) — running the AI models that power Vesper.
• ElevenLabs — generating Vesper's voice audio.
• Resend — sending account and transactional emails.
• Klaviyo — sending marketing and product emails to subscribers.
• Vercel — hosting and delivering the app.

Each provider is bound to handle your data only as needed to provide their service to us.

05What we don't do
