Vega needs your birth details to do the only thing it does. This page says exactly what is held, who else sees it, and how to get rid of it. It is written to be read, not to be survived.

What is collected

Only what a birth chart needs, and it all comes from you typing it to the bot:

First nameUsed to address you in the message.
Date of birthRequired for the chart.
Time of birthOptional. Without it the chart skips the Ascendant.
City of birthConverted once to coordinates and a timezone, then stored as those.
Telegram chat IDThe number Telegram uses to route a message to you.
Your chartCalculated from the above and stored so it is not recomputed daily.
Subscription statusWhether you are in the free days, paying, or paused.
Tonight's voice noteEach morning's message is generated a few hours ahead so an outage cannot break the delivery. The audio file is deleted when it is sent, swept within two days if it never is, and removed immediately by /delete.

No email address, no phone number, no contacts, no message history, no location beyond the birth city you typed. Vega never reads your other Telegram messages; it cannot.

Why, and on what legal basis

Your birth details are not used to profile you anywhere else, are never sold, and are never shared for advertising.

Who else processes it

Running the service means some data passes through other companies. This is the complete list:

TelegramDelivers the message. They necessarily know your chat ID.
AnthropicWrites each morning's script. The request contains your first name and your chart — not your birth date, time or city.
ElevenLabsTurns that script into speech. The script contains your first name.
OpenStreetMap / NominatimConverts your birth city to coordinates, once, at signup.
The server hostRuns the bot and stores the database.

No payment processor is listed because no payments happen yet. When paid subscriptions open on the website, the processor is added here before the first charge is taken. Card details will go to that processor and will never be seen by Vega.

Anthropic and ElevenLabs are based in the United States, so those requests leave the EU. They are used under their standard terms, which include the transfer safeguards required by Chapter V of the GDPR.

How long it is kept

Until you delete it. There is no fixed expiry, because the product is a daily habit and an expiry would break it silently.

The database is backed up nightly and backups are kept for thirty days, so a deletion finishes working its way out of the backups within a month.

Deleting it

Send /delete to the bot, then /delete confirm. Your name, birth date, birth time, birth city, coordinates, timezone and chart are removed from the database immediately. This is an actual deletion, not a hidden flag, and it cannot be undone.

If you would rather just stop the messages and keep your chart, send /stop.

What survives deletion, and why

One thing is kept on purpose: a scrambled marker recording that the free mornings were already used on that account.

It is produced by a one-way cryptographic function with a secret key. It contains no name, no birth data and no chat ID, and it cannot be turned back into any of them or matched against you by anyone who obtains it. Its only use is answering one question when someone signs up: have these free days already been given?

Without it, deleting and re-registering would hand out the free trial again and again, and the trial could not be offered without a card. Keeping a minimal record for that purpose is permitted under Article 17(3); the erasure of everything else is real and complete.

Your rights

Automated decisions

Nothing here makes a decision about you that has legal or similarly significant effects. Software writes the message; it does not decide anything concerning you, and there is no profiling in the sense Article 22 means.

Do you have to give this?

No. Providing your birth details is neither statutory nor contractually required — but they are the whole product, and without them there is nothing to send. The only consequence of not giving them is that Vega cannot work.

Children

Vega is not for under-16s and is not directed at them. If you believe a child has signed up, write and it will be deleted.

Changes

If what is collected or who processes it changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. Material changes are announced in the bot.
