Privacy policy.

Effective 26 May 2026 · last updated 17 June 2026

Orchard ("Orchard," "we," "us") is building a living map of how work actually works — starting with managed service providers (MSPs). This policy explains what information we collect from visitors to myorchard.ai and people who join our early-access list, how we use it, and the choices you have.

We are a small founding team in private preview. We collect the minimum we need to talk to potential design partners and to understand how the site performs.

01Information we collect

Information you give us

When you use the "Request access" / "Get founder updates" form, we collect what you submit:

Email address (required)
Name (optional)
Company or MSP name (optional)
Team size (optional)
A free-text note about where you're running on heroics (optional)

Information collected automatically

When you submit the form, we attach a small envelope of context so we can prioritize outreach and debug the funnel. This includes:

A randomly generated submission ID
The page URL and referring URL
Your browser timezone and language
Your screen and viewport dimensions
Your user-agent string
Aggregate session signals: visit count, time on session, furthest point reached, and clicks
UTM campaign parameters from the URL, if any

We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics for site analytics. Cloudflare Web Analytics is cookieless and does not fingerprint or track individuals across sites; it gathers aggregate page-view and performance metrics. See cloudflare.com/web-analytics.

Local browser storage

The site stores two small values in your browser to count repeat visits and avoid double-counting a single session:

orchard_visits in localStorage — a cumulative visit counter
orchard_session_counted in sessionStorage — a per-session flag, cleared when you close the tab

We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking cookies.

02How we use information

To reply to your inquiry and send founder updates you've requested
To evaluate fit for our private preview and design-partner program
To understand which parts of the site resonate, and to fix what doesn't
To protect the site from abuse and debug submission failures
To comply with applicable law

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it with advertisers. We do not use it to train third-party AI models.

03Where your information lives

Form submissions are delivered to a private Google Sheet via a Google Apps Script endpoint that we control. Google acts as our processor for hosting that data. The site itself is served behind Cloudflare, which receives standard request metadata (IP address, user-agent, request path) as part of routing traffic.

Third parties we currently use:

Google (Sheets, Apps Script) — storage of form submissions
Cloudflare — hosting, DNS, and cookieless analytics
Google Fonts — web font delivery (Fraunces, Work Sans, JetBrains Mono)

04How long we keep it

We keep form submissions for as long as you remain on the early-access list, or until you ask us to delete them. Aggregate analytics are retained according to Cloudflare's defaults and contain no identifying personal data.

05Your choices and rights

You can ask us to:

Show you what we hold about you
Correct anything that's wrong
Delete your information from our list
Stop sending you updates

Email cooper@myorchard.ai from the address you signed up with and we'll handle it — usually within a few business days. Depending on where you live (EEA, UK, California, and others), you may have additional rights under GDPR, the UK GDPR, or the CCPA / CPRA, including the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

06Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the data we collect, including TLS in transit and access controls on the systems that store it. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, so we can't promise absolute security — but we don't collect more than we need, which is the best protection we can offer.

07Children

The site and our early-access program are intended for business users. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 16.

08International transfers

We are based in the United States, and our service providers (Google, Cloudflare) operate globally. If you submit information from outside the United States, you understand that it may be processed in the United States and other countries where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

09Changes to this policy

We'll update this page when our practices change. The "last updated" date at the top will always reflect the current version. Material changes will be communicated to people on our early-access list before they take effect.
