Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 14, 2026

Introduction

QuickScout (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our oil and gas data platform and related services.

By using our services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our services.

Information We Collect

Personal Information

We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us, including:

  • Name and contact information (email address, phone number)
  • Account credentials and profile information
  • Payment and billing information
  • Communication preferences
  • Feedback and correspondence with us

Service and Log Information

When you use our services, our servers automatically record certain information:

  • Standard server log data (IP address, browser user agent, request time)
  • Account activity needed to operate and meter the service, such as reports generated and AI credits consumed
  • Queries and prompts you submit to our AI features, so we can return a result
  • Error and diagnostic data when something fails

We do not build advertising or behavioral profiles from this information, and we do not track you across other websites.

Oil and Gas Data

Our platform provides access to oil and gas industry data, including well information, production data, and related analytics. This data is sourced from public records and industry databases.

How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

  • Provide and maintain our services
  • Process transactions and manage subscriptions
  • Send administrative information and updates
  • Respond to your inquiries and support requests
  • Improve our services and develop new features
  • Ensure security and prevent fraud
  • Comply with legal obligations

Cookies, Local Storage, and Tracking Technologies

The only cookies set when you use QuickScout are strictly necessary ones:

  • Authentication:

    Our identity provider, Clerk, sets session cookies that keep you signed in and protect your account against session hijacking. The application cannot function without these.
  • Payments:

    Stripe sets cookies for fraud prevention when a payment form is displayed. These are loaded only on the pages where you enter payment details, not across the rest of the site.

Separately, we store interface preferences in your browser's local storage — for example map position and basemap, panel layout, saved column and filter choices, table page sizes, and color theme. This information stays on your device, is not transmitted to us or to any third party, and is not used to identify you. You can clear it at any time through your browser's site data controls.

You can block or delete cookies through your browser preferences. Blocking the authentication cookies will sign you out and prevent the application from working. Because we do not track users across websites, we do not treat browser “Do Not Track” signals differently — there is no cross-site tracking to disable.

Service Providers We Use

We rely on a small number of third-party providers to operate the platform. Each receives only the information needed for its function, and is bound by contract to process it on our instructions:

  • Clerk:

    user authentication and account management
  • Stripe:

    payment processing and subscription billing
  • Amazon Web Services:

    application hosting, data storage, and AI model processing
  • Mapbox and other basemap and satellite imagery providers:

    map rendering. Loading map tiles necessarily discloses your IP address and the map area you are viewing to the tile provider.

Fonts, map tiles, and other static assets are served from our own infrastructure and content delivery network rather than from third-party font or script hosts.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We disclose personal information only in the following circumstances:

  • Service Providers:

    to the providers listed above, who assist us in operating our platform
  • Legal Requirements:

    where required by law or to protect our rights and safety
  • Business Transfers:

    in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred
  • Consent:

    with your explicit consent

Data Security

However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access and review your personal information
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Request deletion of your personal information
  • Object to or restrict certain processing activities
  • Data portability
  • Withdraw consent where applicable

To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information provided below. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of them.

Region-Specific Disclosures

European Economic Area and United Kingdom

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we process personal information on these legal bases: performance of our contract with you (providing the service you signed up for), our legitimate interests (securing the platform, preventing fraud, and improving the product), compliance with legal obligations, and your consent where we ask for it.

Our servers are located in the United States, so using the service involves transferring your information there under appropriate safeguards. You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

California

We have not sold personal information, and have not shared it for cross-context behavioral advertising, in the preceding twelve months. We therefore do not offer a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link, because there is no such activity to opt out of. California residents may exercise the rights to know, delete, and correct their personal information using the contact details below.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. The specific retention period depends on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected.

Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the “Last updated” date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
