How Otto handles your information.
Last updated May 3, 2026. Otto is pre-launch — this page covers the marketing site and waitlist only. A separate, longer policy will accompany the iOS app at release.
Who runs Otto
Otto is built by an independent team trading as Otto (the “data controller”). For privacy questions, write to privacy@ottokeep.com. A full company entity and registered address will be published on this page before the iOS app launches.
What the waitlist collects
When you submit your email at ottokeep.com, the site records:
- Email address — what you typed into the form.
- Timestamp — when you submitted.
- Browser user-agent — e.g.
Chrome on macOS. Sent automatically by every browser. - Country code — e.g.
TR,US. Derived from the network edge by Cloudflare; we do not store your IP address. - Referrer URL — if you arrived from another site, the address that linked here.
That’s the entire record. No tracking pixels, no third-party advertising scripts, no analytics cookies, no fingerprinting.
Why we collect it
One reason: to email you when invites open, in country-launch order. The user-agent and referrer help us understand which platforms and channels brought signups so we prioritise the right ones.
Lawful basis under GDPR: legitimate interest in communicating with people who explicitly asked to be notified about a product they’ve requested.
Where it’s stored
Submissions land in a private Google Sheet via Google Apps Script. Google LLC (USA) and Google Ireland Limited act as data processors under their standard data processing terms. Nothing is shared with anyone else — no advertisers, no analytics vendors, no third parties.
International transfers. Google may process waitlist data outside the EU/UK (e.g. in the United States). Those transfers rely on Google’s Standard Contractual Clauses for safeguarding personal data. Cloudflare, which derives your country code at the network edge, applies the same safeguards.
How long we keep it
Until Otto launches publicly, plus six months — then waitlist records are deleted. If you create an Otto account at launch, your waitlist row is removed when your account is set up.
Your rights
You can ask us to:
- Send you a copy of the data we hold for your email.
- Delete your row immediately, no questions asked.
- Correct anything that’s wrong.
- Unsubscribe from future waitlist emails.
Email privacy@ottokeep.com from the address you signed up with. We action requests within 7 days.
Unsubscribing. Every waitlist email we send will include a one-click unsubscribe link. Clicking it removes you from the list immediately and confirms deletion by reply. You can also email us directly to unsubscribe at any time, even before the first invite goes out.
Filing a complaint
We’d rather hear from you first — email privacy@ottokeep.com and we’ll resolve it. If you’re in the EU/EEA, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection supervisory authority. UK residents can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Cookies
The marketing site sets no cookies and runs no third-party analytics. The browser may store a small flag in localStorage after you join the waitlist, so the form shows your enrolled state on return visits. That flag never leaves your device.
Children
The waitlist is for adults. Otto is designed for households and adult finance management. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16.
Changes
If this policy changes before launch, we’ll update the date above and email anyone on the waitlist before the change takes effect.
