Revue is a small, invite-only, non-commercial project: a daily digest of new research papers picked for each reader. This note says what it keeps about you, why, who else sees it, and how to remove it.
What Revue keeps
- Your account: name, email address, username and a hashed password (never the password itself).
- Your research profile and projects: the statements you write, your PubMed searches, methods and data, and excluded terms.
- What you do in Revue: likes and dislikes, saved papers, notes and collections, followed authors and journals, your settings, and the editions built for you.
- A cost log: how many AI calls were made for you and what they cost, for the daily caps. It never holds what you searched for or asked.
- A request for access (name, email, field), until it is answered: declined requests are deleted.
Revue has no ads, no trackers and no analytics. The only cookie is the sign-in cookie (30 days). Search words are used for that search and not stored with your account; your recent searches and a few display choices stay in your own browser.
Who else sees it
- Fly.io hosts Revue (servers in the United States). Server logs are kept briefly and never contain your profile texts, notes or keys.
- Anthropic (Claude) writes summaries and answers. It receives paper texts and, when a feature needs it, your profile and project statements (setup, suggestions, “why it may matter to you”) or the question you ask. Revue says so on screen where this happens. Anthropic does not train its models on this data.
- Resend sends Revue's emails (your address and the edition).
- PubMed, OpenAlex and Europe PMC receive your PubMed searches and search words, never your name or email.
- Cloudflare R2 stores Revue's off-site backup: one copy of the database a day, encrypted at rest, kept 30 days.
- Backups: besides those 30 days of copies, Fly.io keeps daily snapshots of Revue's (encrypted) disk for 7 days. Deleted data leaves every backup within 30 days.
Nothing is sold or shared for marketing. The admin page shows account details only (name, email, sign-ins, AI costs). The person running Revue doesn't look at your profile, notes or saved papers unless you ask for help with them.
Your choices
- Change or delete anything in your profile, Library and Settings at any time.
- Stop the email with the link in any edition, or in Settings.
- Delete your account in Settings: your account and all its data are removed at once (and from backups within 30 days).
- Questions or requests: Send feedback when signed in, or reply to any Revue email.
