MentorCruise Privacy Summary

The one thing to know: session content may reach AI processors

The privacy policy lists more than twenty named processors. The OpenAI API appears with “Trackers; Usage Data.” Anthropic has a description and no data line. Stripe handles your billing address, email, name and payment information. The policy doesn't say whether chat or session content goes to OpenAI or Anthropic, or whether it's kept or used for training. ^[1]

Ask in writing before you share anything sensitive, or ask for a data-processing agreement. Until the answer is in writing, leave out any detail you wouldn't put in an email to the company. ^[1]

The search tools: what they send and what they keep

The plugin README says requests go only to MentorCruise endpoints, that there is no telemetry, and that the caller's IP address is hashed for abuse prevention. It gives no retention period for that hash, and the rule covers the plugin only, not the website. ^[2]

The skills repo says top matches are enriched with information from the web. It names no service, gives no data-handling or retention statement, and has no privacy statement. Keep personal details out of your search. ^[3]

How to close your account

The deletion help article is dated 14 September 2023. It says personal data is removed first and account data within 90 days. It doesn't say whether transaction records are deleted. ^[4]

1. End or pause every active mentorship first. Ending closes the chat and stops recurring payments at once.
2. Save your own copies of receipts and refund correspondence, because transaction records aren't addressed.
3. Request deletion as the 2023 deletion article describes, and expect account data to clear within 90 days. ^{[5] [6] [4]}

The verdict

The policy names its operator, MentorCruise Inc. in Sheridan, Wyoming, and it describes a deletion route. The weak spot is the AI question. Until the company says whether session content reaches OpenAI or Anthropic, keep IDs, tax forms and contracts out of mentorship chats. ^{[1] [4]}
