Providers we use
Last changed: November 14, 2026.
In short: these are the companies that handle your information to run Novads, and what each one gets. We do not sell your information.
Each provider gets only what its job needs. Last checked against the Novads code on November 14, 2026. If we add a provider, we update this page first.
| Provider | What it does | What it receives |
|---|---|---|
| Stripe | Takes payment and runs the billing portal | Your email, plan and card details (card details go to Stripe directly) |
| Resend | Sends our emails, such as sign-in codes and renewal notices | Your email address and the email text |
| Sign in with Google (if you pick it); checks uploaded photos for safety; Gemini can run the picture engine; Google Fonts loads our font | Your email and name at sign-in; photos you upload; your internet address when the font loads | |
| APIDot | Picture engine at times, in place of Gemini: the actor's face and the first frame of each video | Your actor choices, your product photo, and a photo of you if you choose an actor that looks like you |
| Higgsfield (Kling video model) | Turns the first frame into your video clip with sound | The first frame, the script and the directions for the clip |
| OpenRouter, and the AI model company it routes to (Anthropic) | Writes ad scripts, hooks and brand notes, and runs the Agent chat | Your messages, product details and the brand details we read from your site. Those companies keep or use that data under their own policies |
| Cloudflare | Checks that a sign-up comes from a person (Turnstile) | Your internet address and browser signals at sign-in |
| Our hosting company | The server Novads runs on, in the United States | Everything stored in your account |
When you paste a product link, our own server reads that public page to get the product's name, text and photos. No other company is involved in that step.
Our posting feature, if we turn it on for you, will use a posting provider that receives the ads and captions you approve. It is not part of Novads today and this page will say so before it is.
