Privacy, in plain English.
We collect the minimum needed to run Sidekick Forms, we don’t sell it, and we don’t use your documents to train advertising models. Here’s the detail.
Last updated November 2026.
What we collect
- Account details: name, email, organization, and password hash.
- Document data: the forms, answers, documents, and signatures you create or receive.
- Usage data: pages viewed, browser type, and IP address, used for security and product improvement.
- Billing data: handled by our payment processor. We never store full card numbers.
What we do with it
We use your data to provide the service, secure your account, send the emails you ask us to send, and meet legal obligations. We do not sell personal information. We do not use document contents or form answers for advertising. We do not train third-party models on your documents.
Who we share it with
Only the infrastructure providers required to run Sidekick Forms — hosting, email delivery, payments, and error monitoring — under written data processing agreements. The current subprocessor list is available on request from security@sidekickforms.com. We may disclose information if legally required, and we’ll tell you unless prohibited.
Your choices
- Export every document and its audit history at any time.
- Request deletion of your account and its contents.
- Turn off product emails while keeping essential account notices.
- Ask us what we hold about you — and get a straight answer.
Cookies
We use a small number of first-party cookies for sign-in sessions and preferences. Our marketing site uses privacy-friendly, aggregate analytics with no cross-site tracking. There is no advertising cookie to consent to.
Students and children
Schools use Sidekick to collect family permissions and signatures. Student information is limited to what a form asks for. We do not create profiles of students, and families can request deletion through their school or directly with us.
