Who we are

R&D Radar is run by Sam Tuxworth, a sole trader based in the United Kingdom, who is the data controller for the personal data described on this page. Contact: hello@rd-radar.com.

What we store

Your email address (used to sign you in — we don't use passwords), the project descriptions you submit, your answers to follow-up questions, and the screening results generated for you (verdicts, citations and drafted narratives).

Where it lives

Your data is stored with Supabase in London (AWS eu-west-2). Only you can access your screenings — access is enforced at the database level (row-level security), not just in the app.

How screening works

To produce a verdict, the project description you submit is processed by Anthropic's Claude API. Under Anthropic's commercial terms, API inputs and outputs are not used to train their models. The website is hosted on Vercel. These are our only sub-processors: Supabase (storage), Anthropic (screening), Vercel (hosting).

What we don't do

We don't sell your data, share it with third parties beyond the sub-processors above, use it for advertising, or use your project descriptions for anything other than producing your screening results.

Why we can process it

We process your data to provide the service you signed up for — running screenings and showing you your results (performance of a contract, UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b)) — and to keep the service secure and working (legitimate interests, Article 6(1)(f)). We don't process your data for any other purpose.

How long we keep it

Your account, project descriptions and screening results are kept while your account exists, so you can refer back to them. Everything is deleted when you ask us to delete your account (see below).

Deletion

Want your account and all screenings deleted? Email hello@rd-radar.com from your sign-in address and we'll remove everything.

Cookies

We use only the strictly necessary cookies that keep you signed in. No analytics cookies, no tracking pixels.

Complaints

If you're unhappy with how we've handled your data, email us first and we'll try to put it right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
