Privacy Policy

winpathgov.com · team@winpathgov.com · Version 1.0 · Effective April 18, 2026

Accepted once at signup. By checking the agreement box during registration, you accept this Privacy Policy in full. You are not asked to re-accept on every sign-in. You can review this policy at any time at winpathgov.com/privacy.

1. Data We Collect

We collect and store the following categories of data when you use WinPath:

  • Account information: Email address, hashed password (managed by Supabase Auth), and account creation timestamp.
  • Pursuit data: Opportunity titles, agencies, contract values, capture stages, RFP dates, incumbent names, set-aside types, notes, and next steps that you input.
  • Contact records: Names, roles, agencies, relationship status, and notes for contacts you create within the platform.
  • Uploaded RFP documents: Files you upload for AI-assisted analysis, stored in Supabase Storage.
  • Usage and technical logs: Activity log entries (actions taken within the app), session information, and error logs for debugging.
  • SAM.gov cache: Opportunity and contact data fetched from SAM.gov and cached in our sam_cache table with a 24-hour TTL.
  • Opportunity search cache: SAM.gov search results cached in our sam_search_cache table with a 7-day TTL.
  • Legal acceptance records: A record of your acceptance of our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, including version number, timestamp, IP address, and browser user-agent.

2. AI Processing

WinPath uses AI to generate capture intelligence, briefings, summaries, and analysis. When you request AI-powered features, relevant data (opportunity details, RFP text, activity history) is transmitted to the following AI providers:

  • Anthropic: Processes text via the claude-sonnet-4-6 (intelligence and briefings) and claude-haiku-4-5 (extraction and classification) models. One Anthropic API key covers both models.
  • OpenAI:Generates vector embeddings via the text-embedding-3-small model. Embeddings are stored in Supabase’s pgvector extension for semantic search.

AI outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or fabricated. We do not guarantee the correctness of any AI-generated content. Always verify AI outputs against official sources before acting on them.

We do NOT train public AI models on your data. Your pursuit data, documents, and inputs are used solely to generate responses for your account and are not used to improve or train Anthropic or OpenAI foundation models for public use.

3. Infrastructure and Security Controls

WinPath is built on the following security architecture:

  • Supabase RLS: Row-Level Security is enforced on every database table. Users can only access their own rows.
  • Supabase Auth: Authentication is managed by Supabase, which hashes passwords using bcrypt. WinPath never stores plaintext passwords.
  • Environment variables: All API keys (Anthropic, OpenAI, SAM.gov, Stripe, Resend) are stored exclusively as server-side environment variables. No API keys are exposed to the browser or committed to source code.
  • TLS in transit: All data transmitted between your browser, Vercel (hosting), and Supabase is encrypted via TLS.
  • Vercel hosting: The application is hosted on Vercel’s edge infrastructure with DDoS protection and managed TLS.

4. Security Limitations

No security guarantee.

Despite the controls described above, no internet-connected system can be guaranteed to be fully secure. WinPath’s infrastructure (Supabase, Vercel) is operated by third parties whose security practices are outside our direct control.

DO NOT upload or enter the following data into WinPath:

  • Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
  • Classified or national security information of any classification level
  • ITAR-controlled technical data
  • CMMC-regulated data or Covered Defense Information (CDI)
  • Protected Health Information (PHI) or other HIPAA-covered data

WinPath is NOT FedRAMP authorized. It is not approved, accredited, or designed for use with any controlled or regulated government data.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your data. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or pursuit data to third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.

We share data only with the following service processors, as required to operate the platform:

  • Supabase — database storage, authentication, and file storage
  • Vercel — application hosting and edge delivery
  • Stripe — payment processing. Stripe stores your card data; WinPath does not have access to your full card number, CVV, or bank details.
  • Resend — transactional email delivery (welcome emails, notifications) from team@winpathgov.com
  • Anthropic — AI inference (text sent to Claude models for analysis)
  • OpenAI — vector embeddings (text sent for embedding generation)
  • SAM.gov API — federal procurement data retrieval (your keyword/agency search terms are included in API requests)
  • USASpending.gov API — federal award data retrieval

We may also disclose your information (a) as required by law, regulation, or legal process; (b) to enforce our Terms of Service; or (c) to protect the rights, property, or safety of WinPath, our users, or the public.

6. Breach Notification

In the event of a data security breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you at your registered email address within the timeframes required by applicable state and federal law. Notification of a breach is not an admission of liability or wrongdoing.
