Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 10, 2026

Acting Resources ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website at actingresources.com (the "Platform"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Platform.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address and, optionally, your name. Authentication is handled by Supabase, a third-party infrastructure provider. We do not store your password directly — it is managed securely by Supabase's authentication service.

Payment Information

If you subscribe to a paid plan, payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe. We do not receive or store your full credit card number, CVV, or other sensitive payment details. We may receive limited information from Stripe such as the last four digits of your card, card type, and billing address for record-keeping purposes.

Usage Data

We automatically collect certain information when you access the Platform, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and timestamps. This data helps us understand how the Platform is used and improve our services.

Images Uploaded for AI Analysis

When you use our Headshot Review tool, you upload an image that is sent to Anthropic's Claude API for analysis. We do not permanently store these images on our servers. The image is transmitted to Anthropic for processing and the analysis results are returned to you.

Video Data for Self-Tape Analysis

When you use our Self-Tape Analysis tool, you select a video file from your device. Your video file never leaves your device and is never uploaded to any server. All video processing happens entirely in your browser (client-side): frames are extracted locally, composited into grid images, and only those still-image grids are sent to Anthropic's Claude API for analysis. The original video file remains solely on your device at all times.

AI Chat Conversations

When you interact with any of our AI tools (Acting Coach, Monologue Helper, Union Guide, Platform Help, Headshot Review, Self-Tape Analysis), the text of your conversation is sent to Anthropic's Claude API for processing. Conversation history may be stored in your account for your convenience if you are a subscribed user.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To provide, maintain, and improve the Platform and its features
  • To process your subscription and manage your account
  • To provide AI-powered analysis and feedback through our tools
  • To communicate with you about your account, updates, or support requests
  • To monitor usage patterns and improve user experience
  • To detect, prevent, and address technical issues or abuse
  • To comply with legal obligations

3. Third-Party Service Providers

We use the following third-party services to operate the Platform:

Anthropic (Claude API)

All AI-powered features use Anthropic's Claude API. When you use an AI tool, your input text and any uploaded images or extracted video frames are sent to Anthropic for processing. Anthropic's use of this data is governed by their privacy policy. Anthropic's commercial API terms state that they do not train their models on data submitted through the API.

Supabase

We use Supabase for authentication and database services. Your account information and usage data are stored in Supabase's infrastructure. Supabase's handling of your data is governed by their privacy policy.

Stripe

Payment processing is handled by Stripe. When you provide payment information, it is collected and processed directly by Stripe. See Stripe's privacy policy for details on how they handle your payment data.

Vercel

The Platform is hosted on Vercel. Vercel may collect server logs and performance data. See Vercel's privacy policy for details.

4. Cookies and Tracking

We use essential cookies to maintain your authentication session and remember your preferences. We may also use analytics tools to understand how users interact with the Platform. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.

5. Data Retention

We retain your account information for as long as your account is active. AI conversation history for subscribed users is retained while your subscription is active. Images submitted for headshot review are not permanently stored by Acting Resources. Video files used for self-tape analysis are never transmitted from your device. Usage data may be retained in aggregated, anonymized form for analytics purposes.

If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or compliance purposes.

6. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information. All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted via TLS/SSL. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: You may request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  • Deletion: You may request that we delete your personal data. You can delete your account at any time through your account settings, or by contacting us.
  • Data portability: You may request a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • Objection: You may object to certain types of processing of your personal data.
  • Withdrawal of consent: Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@actingresources.com. We will respond to your request within 30 days.

8. International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own, including the United States, where our service providers operate. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including GDPR where applicable.

9. Children's Privacy

The Platform is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. While we offer educational content that may be relevant to young actors and their families (such as our parent guide course), accounts must be created by individuals who are at least 13 years of age. If you are between 13 and 18, you should have a parent or guardian's permission to use the Platform.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@actingresources.com.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Platform after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
