Last updated: May 29, 2025
At Formnex, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and disclose your data when you use our platform, including our website, form submission services, and developer tools.
By using our services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please refrain from using the platform.
1. Information We Collect

This data is anonymized and used for analytics purposes only.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the data we collect to:

- Route and store form submissions securely
- Provide access to submission logs and webhook history
- Notify you of platform updates, service changes, or legal notices
- Monitor platform performance and security
- Prevent abuse, fraud, or misuse of endpoints
We never sell your data or form submissions to third parties.
3. GitHub Authentication
3.1 OAuth Integration
Formnex allows you to sign in using your GitHub account via OAuth. When you choose this method:
- We redirect you to GitHub’s official OAuth authorization endpoint.
- You grant permission to read your basic GitHub profile and email address.
- GitHub returns an access token and your public profile data.
3.2 What We Store
From GitHub, we store:
- Your GitHub user ID
- Email address
- Username
- Profile image URL (if available)
We do not store your GitHub password or have access to any of your private repositories or GitHub data unless explicitly authorized by you in the future.
3.3 Why We Use GitHub OAuth
GitHub OAuth is used for:
- Streamlined developer login and registration
- Verifying developer identity for usage rate limiting
- Displaying your name or avatar in the dashboard UI (optional)
- Providing a seamless authentication flow without requiring password storage
We do not use your GitHub credentials for marketing or analytics.
3.4 Revoking Access
If you wish to revoke Formnex’s access to your GitHub account:
- Go to your GitHub account settings
- Navigate to Applications > Authorized OAuth Apps
- Find Formnex and click “Revoke Access”
Once revoked, your Formnex session will be deactivated, and you will need to reauthenticate to use the dashboard.
4. Data Storage and Retention
We use modern cloud infrastructure to securely store your data. All traffic is encrypted in transit via HTTPS and TLS protocols.
Retention Periods
- Form submissions are retained based on your account level (e.g., 30–90 days).
- Webhook logs are retained for a limited duration to support debugging and auditing.
- Account metadata is retained for as long as your account is active, and may be archived upon deletion.
You can request deletion of your data or account at any time.
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell or share your data with third parties for marketing purposes. We may share information only in the following cases:
- Legal Compliance: If required by law, subpoena, or government request.
- Service Providers: Third-party services that assist in hosting, analytics, and email delivery (e.g., Vercel, Clerk, or Resend).
- Security Investigations: If necessary to investigate abuse, fraud, or threats.
All third-party providers are contractually obligated to protect your data.

- Right to access your personal data
- Right to request correction or deletion
- Right to withdraw consent
- Right to data portability

- Analytics scripts (only for internal use)
We do not use third-party advertising trackers or fingerprinting.
8. Third-Party Links
