3. Third-Party Services
VittaLekha uses the following trusted third-party services to deliver our features:
• Supabase (supabase.com): We use Supabase for secure database storage, user authentication, and file storage. Your data is stored on Supabase's servers, which are hosted on AWS infrastructure. Supabase is SOC 2 compliant.
• Anthropic Claude AI (anthropic.com): When you scan or upload an invoice image, it is sent to Anthropic's Claude AI API for data extraction. Uploaded images are processed in real-time and are not stored by Anthropic beyond the scope of the API request, per their privacy policy.
We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these third-party services directly.
4. Data Storage & Security
Your data is stored securely on Supabase servers with the following protections:
• All data is encrypted in transit using TLS/SSL.
• Database access is protected by row-level security policies — your data can only be accessed by your account.
• Passwords are never stored in plain text; they are securely hashed using industry-standard algorithms.
• We regularly review our security practices to protect against unauthorised access, disclosure, or misuse.
Despite these measures, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
