Last updated

Networka helps you remember who you met, why you connected, and what should happen next. Doing that means holding details about people — yours, and those of people you meet. This page says exactly what is stored, who else touches it, how long it lasts, and how to have it removed.

The short version

  • Your published profile is public. That is its job — anyone with the link can read it and no account is needed.
  • Your notes, contacts and follow-ups are private. The database enforces that per row, not the interface.
  • Somebody who taps your card and hands back their details does not get an account and is not signed up to anything.
  • Product analytics never contains message bodies, private notes, transcripts, phone numbers, email addresses or precise locations.
  • Deleting your account removes your data rather than hiding it.

What is stored about you

If you create an account, Networka holds:

  • Your profile — name, headline, company, bio, city, country, the contact channels you choose to show, your photo if you upload one, and the link you publish it at.
  • Your connections — the name and contact details somebody gave you, and anything you wrote about the conversation: where you met, why it mattered, and what you said you would do.
  • Voice notes, if you record them, and the text they were turned into.
  • Your follow-ups and the reminders attached to them.
  • Your cards — which physical cards are yours, and when each was tapped.
  • Your email address, and a password that is stored only as a hash. Nobody here can read it, including us.

Your public profile really is public

Publishing a profile puts it at a permanent web address that anyone can open, on any device, with no account and no app. Search engines can index it. That is what makes a card work when you hand it to a stranger.

You decide what goes on it. Every contact channel has its own switch, and anything switched off is not sent to the browser at all — it is not hidden with styling, it is absent. Unpublishing takes the page down; copies already saved by someone who visited it are, as with any web page, beyond anyone’s reach.

When someone hands back their details

A person who taps your card can choose to send you their name, a way to reach them, and a note about where you met. If they do:

  • They are told before they send it exactly what you receive.
  • No account is created for them. They are not signed up, not emailed marketing, and not added to any list.
  • The details go to you, and become a connection only you can see.

Once they are in your list, you are the one holding another person’s contact details, and what you do with them is yours to answer for. Use them for the reason they were given.

Voice notes and AI

If you record a voice note, the audio is sent to OpenAI to be turned into text. If you ask Networka to pull out the details of a conversation or draft a follow-up, that text is sent to Anthropic.

Both are used only to produce the result you asked for and return it to you. Every one of these features has a manual path that works without them: you can type a note, set a reminder and write your own message, and nothing about the product stops working if you never use the AI at all.

A draft is never sent for you. Networka prepares the message; you read it, change it, and send it yourself from WhatsApp, email or wherever you normally would.

What analytics does and does not see

Networka records that things happened, so it is possible to tell whether the product works — a profile was viewed, a card was claimed, a follow-up was completed. Each record holds the name of the event, which account it belonged to, a country code, and where the visit came from.

It holds none of the following, and the code refuses to write a record that looks like it might: message bodies, private notes, transcripts, phone numbers, email addresses, names, claim codes, or precise locations. A record that fails that check is dropped, not trimmed, so a mistake surfaces instead of half-landing.

Rate limiting on the public form uses a one-way hash of the visitor’s IP address. The address itself is not stored and the hash cannot be turned back into one.

There is no advertising, no tracking pixel, and nothing here is sold or shared with a data broker.

Where it lives, and who else touches it

The database and the files are hosted in London. The servers that answer requests run there too.

These companies process data on Networka’s behalf:

  • Supabase — the database, sign-in, and stored files (London).
  • Vercel — runs the application (London).
  • Resend — sends account and reminder email.
  • OpenAI — turns voice notes into text.
  • Anthropic — extracts details and drafts follow-ups.
  • Google — only if you choose to sign in with Google.
  • Sentry — records errors so faults can be fixed. Contact details are stripped before an error leaves the server.

How long it is kept

Your profile, connections, notes and follow-ups are kept until you delete them or delete your account. Networka does not expire your data on a timer — a connection from two years ago is exactly the one you are most likely to have forgotten.

Reminders and analytics records are kept for as long as the account exists. Deleting the account deals with both, below.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account from settings. You will be asked to type your email address first, because it cannot be undone.

What happens, in this order:

  • Analytics records are severed from you — the counts stay so the product’s own numbers remain honest, and nothing in them identifies anyone.
  • Your uploaded files — profile photo, voice notes — are deleted.
  • Your cards are released, not destroyed. They are physical objects that outlive an account, so each becomes unclaimed and can be connected by whoever holds it next.
  • Your account row is deleted, and everything attached to it goes with it: profile, connections, notes, contexts, follow-ups, reminders, taps.

Backups are kept for a short period for disaster recovery, so a copy may persist there briefly before ageing out.

Cookies

Networka sets cookies to keep you signed in, and one short-lived cookie during Google sign-in to tie that attempt to your browser. All of them are unreadable by page scripts.

There are no advertising cookies and no third-party trackers. Nothing follows you to another site.

Your choices

  • Edit or remove anything on your profile at any time.
  • Unpublish your profile and the public page stops existing.
  • Delete any connection, note or follow-up individually.
  • Export or delete everything, from settings.
  • Ask what is held about you, or ask for it to be corrected or removed, using the address below.

Children

Networka is a tool for professional networking and is not intended for anyone under 16. If you believe a child has created an account, write to the address below and it will be removed.

Changes

When this page changes, the date at the top changes with it. If a change materially affects what is held about you or who processes it, account holders will be told by email rather than left to notice.
