Vesper is a research tool over Florida public records. It needs very little about you, and this page says exactly what.
Everything Vesper reports on — solicitations, purchase orders, contracts, appropriations, lobbying registrations, legislative records — is Florida public record, published by the State. None of it comes from you.
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Email address | It is your account. Sign-in is a code sent to your inbox — there is no password to store. |
| Application details | If you applied for access: your name, firm, role and what you wanted to use Vesper for. |
| Questions you ask | Questions put to Ask and the Concierge are logged with a short preview of the answer, so we can measure cost and improve results. |
| Saved items | Bids and vendors you save, so they follow you between devices. |
| Pages you open | One row per page load while signed in, to understand which surfaces earn their keep. |
| Errors | When something breaks: the message, the page, and your browser or device, so it can be fixed. |
| Bug reports | Only if you file one — your note and any screenshot you choose to attach. |
Vesper runs on a small set of vendors, each handling data only to provide their service:
Account data lives as long as the account does. Question logs, page views and error records are operational and kept while they are useful for cost, diagnostics and product decisions. Delete your account and the data tied to it goes with it.
The Vesper iOS app is a client for the same account and the same data. It collects nothing beyond what is listed above, contains no advertising or third-party analytics, and sells nothing inside the app. If you enable notifications it stores a device token so alerts can reach you; turn them off and the token is discarded.
Everything travels over HTTPS. Your data is scoped to your account at the database level, so one signed-in user cannot read another's saved items, questions or account details.
Vesper is a professional tool and is not directed at anyone under 13.
If this policy changes materially we will say so here and, for anything significant, by email.
