Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 27, 2026

ProLens (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and handle your information when you use the ProLens platform at app.prolens.io, client portals, and the website at prolens.io (collectively, the “Services”).

Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

When you create an account, submit our contact form, or communicate with us, we may collect:

  • Your name
  • Your company name
  • Your job title or role
  • Your email address
  • Your phone number
  • Your firm size and current project management tool
  • The content of your message or inquiry

Authentication is handled by Clerk (clerk.com), a third-party identity provider. We do not store passwords.

Information from Your project management tools Integration

When you connect a Professional Services Automation tool (such as BQE Core, Deltek Vantagepoint, Deltek Ajera, Productive.io, Harvest, or Unanet AE), ProLens reads your project and operational data via API. This data is processed server-side to generate dashboard metrics and client portal displays.

When you connect a project management platform, ProLens syncs your project and operational data every 15 minutes. This data is encrypted at the field level using AES-256-GCM with a key unique to your account before it reaches our database. Sensitive fields (client names, employee names, financial amounts, cost rates) are stored as encrypted text that is unreadable without your tenant's decryption key. With Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) encryption enabled, ProLens cannot decrypt your data at all.

We store the following, all encrypted at the field level with your tenant's unique key:

  • Project names, statuses, and budget data
  • Invoice records (number, amounts, dates, status)
  • Team member records (names, roles, cost rates)
  • Client records (names, contact information)
  • Deal/pipeline records (names, values, stages)
  • Time entry records (hours, dates, billing status)
  • Weekly Pulse snapshots (created within ProLens)

Data is refreshed from your platform every 15 minutes. When you disconnect your platform or delete your account, all stored data, encryption keys, and cached values are permanently deleted.

Information Collected Automatically

When you use the Services, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically collect:

  • Pages visited and features used
  • Session duration and frequency
  • General geographic region (country or state level, not precise)
  • Device type, browser type, and operating system
  • Performance data (page load times)

We use Vercel Analytics, which does not use third-party cookies and does not collect personally identifiable information through analytics.

We do not use third-party advertising trackers, and we do not sell or share analytics data with advertisers.

Information Processed by AI Features

When AI features are enabled (such as Revenue Pulse Daily Insight), anonymized subsets of your data are sent to Anthropic's Claude API for analysis. Before transmission:

  • Client names are replaced with pseudonyms (e.g., "Client A")
  • Project names are replaced with pseudonyms
  • Employee names are replaced with pseudonyms
  • Dollar amounts, percentages, and dates are sent as-is to enable accurate analysis

Anthropic does not store or train on data sent via their API. AI-generated insights are held on our servers for up to 24 hours and then refreshed or deleted.

How We Use Your Information

  • To provide, operate, and improve the ProLens platform
  • To generate dashboard analytics, KPIs, and AI-powered insights
  • To display project status and invoice data on client portals in real time from your project management tools
  • To process Weekly Pulse publications and portal updates
  • To send transactional emails (account verification, Weekly Pulse notifications, sync failure alerts)
  • To respond to support requests and demo inquiries
  • To understand how subscribers use the platform so we can improve it

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling. We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your data to train AI models.

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.

We may share your information with service providers who assist us in operating the platform, including:

  • Clerk (clerk.com) - Authentication and user management
  • Supabase (supabase.com) - Database hosting (encrypted data and platform configuration)
  • Vercel (vercel.com) - Application hosting and deployment
  • Anthropic (anthropic.com) - AI analysis (anonymized data only)
  • AWS KMS (aws.amazon.com) - Encryption key management (hardware security module)
  • Upstash (upstash.com) - Temporary metric caching (Redis, 15-minute expiration)
  • Inngest (inngest.com) - Background job processing
  • Resend (resend.com) - Transactional email delivery
  • Stripe (stripe.com) - Payment processing and subscription management
  • PostHog (posthog.com) - Product analytics (no PII collected)

These service providers are authorized to use your information only as necessary to provide services to us and are contractually obligated to protect your information.

ProLens may produce anonymized, aggregated industry benchmarks (such as average utilization rates by firm size) using data from across our customer base. These benchmarks require a minimum of 20 contributing firms and no individual firm can be identified. You can opt out of benchmark contribution at any time in Settings.

We may also disclose your information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.

Data Security

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information we collect. These include AES-256-GCM field-level encryption with per-tenant keys, AWS KMS hardware-backed key management, encrypted data transmission (TLS 1.3), tenant-scoped database access, role-based access controls, and comprehensive audit logging. Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) encryption is available on all plans, allowing you to control your own encryption keys through AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, or Google Cloud KMS.

For detailed information about our security practices, visit our Security page at prolens.io/security.

Data Retention

Account information and platform configuration are retained for the duration of your subscription plus 90 days.

Project names and statuses synced from your project management tools are retained for the duration of your subscription and deleted upon cancellation.

Your operational data (invoices, time entries, cost rates, client records, deals) is stored encrypted for the duration of your subscription and refreshed every 15 minutes. Upon cancellation or disconnection, all encrypted records, encryption keys, and cached data are permanently deleted within 24 hours.

Weekly Pulse snapshots (created within ProLens) are retained for the duration of your subscription. After cancellation, you may request export. Data is permanently deleted 90 days after cancellation unless a legal hold requires retention.

AI-generated insights expire after 24 hours and are not permanently stored.

Analytics data is retained in aggregate form and does not contain personally identifiable information.

Your Choices

You may choose not to provide certain information, though this may limit our ability to provide certain features.

You may disconnect your project management tools integration at any time from the Settings page. When you disconnect, ProLens immediately stops syncing. All encrypted data associated with that connection is permanently deleted. You can also use the “Delete My Data” option in Settings to instantly remove everything.

If you have previously provided your contact information and would like to update, correct, or request deletion, contact us at hello@prolens.io.
