Suprascribe's automatic subscription discovery feature is designed with your privacy as the top priority. We understand that your inbox contains sensitive and personal information, which is why we've implemented a secure, privacy-first approach to subscription detection.
Secure Email Access
When you choose to connect your email provider, we use industry-standard OAuth 2.0 authentication. This means:
- We never see or store your email password
- You grant us read-only access through your email provider's secure system
- You can revoke our access at any time directly from your email provider settings
- All connections are encrypted end-to-end using TLS/SSL protocols
What We Look At
Our system is specifically designed to identify and analyze only subscription-related emails. We scan for:
- Receipt emails from known subscription services
- Recurring payment confirmations and invoices
- Subscription renewal notifications
- Billing statements from services
We completely ignore: Personal correspondence, work emails, shopping orders that aren't subscriptions, newsletters, and any other non-subscription-related content. Our algorithms are trained to recognize subscription patterns and skip everything else.
What We Store
We extract and store only the essential information needed to help you manage your subscriptions:
- Service name (e.g., "Netflix", "Spotify")
- Billing amount
- Billing frequency (monthly, yearly, etc.)
- Next payment date
- Currency
We do NOT store: email content, email subjects, sender details beyond the service name, attachments, or any other email metadata. Once we've extracted the subscription information, we discard the email data immediately.
No Email Storage
We never store your actual emails. We only extract subscription data and immediately discard the email content.
Encrypted Communication
All data transmission between your device, our servers, and your email provider is encrypted using industry-standard protocols.
Your Data, Your Control
You own your data. You can export it, delete it, or revoke our access at any time-no questions asked.
No Third-Party Sharing
We never sell, share, or provide your subscription data to third parties for marketing, advertising, or any other purposes.
Transparent Processing
Our subscription detection runs entirely on secure servers. We process data in real-time and don't retain any information except the time of the run and results for applying limits. Email analysis is powered by OpenRouter's AI: google/gemini-2.5-flash-lite
Open Source
Suprascribe is fully open source. You can inspect the code, verify our privacy claims, and contribute at github.com/akomis/suprascribe.
Manual Alternative
Not comfortable with email access? You can always add subscriptions manually without connecting your email at all.
We built Suprascribe because we wanted a better way to manage our own subscriptions-and we wouldn't want anyone reading our personal emails either. That's why privacy isn't just a feature for us; it's a fundamental principle.
If you have any questions about how we handle your data, our security practices, or anything else related to your privacy, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're always happy to provide more details.
