Privacy Policy

The short version

ARIS is local-first by design: the software runs on your hardware, over your network, and your image files never leave your disk unless you move them. This site collects the minimum needed to run a waitlist and, later, subscriptions.

What we collect

Waitlist: your email address, an optional first name, and the optional hardware survey (mount, camera, focuser, current setup). We use it to invite you to early access, shape beta cohorts, and build a public compatibility roadmap. We email you about ARIS and nothing else.

Site analytics: privacy-respecting, cookieless aggregate analytics (page views, referrers). No cross-site tracking, no advertising identifiers.

Accounts & subscriptions (when they open): account email, authentication identifiers, plan and subscription status, and payment records held by our payment processor. ARIS never sees or stores full card numbers.

What we never do

We do not sell your data. We do not run third-party advertising. Your astrophotography data — captures, sequences, equipment profiles on your rig — stays on your hardware.

Retention & deletion

Waitlist data is kept until launch invitations complete or you ask us to remove you. Email hello@arisastro.com to see, correct, or delete anything we hold about you.
