Who we are
BookDirectSetup is run by ChristyBuilds (christybuilds.com). When this page says "we" or "us," it means ChristyBuilds.
What we collect
Only what you type into the setup form. That's your name, email, and phone number, the package you picked, and details about your place: its address, rooms, and links to your listing and photos. It also includes your prices and fees, your calendar links, your house rules, your web address and domain ideas, your Wi-Fi network name, your social handles, your permit number, and anything else you choose to add.
If you paste your listing into the form, we keep that text with your answers too, as "Pasted listing," so we have your full description when we build your site.
We never ask for passwords or card details in the form. You pay for your package on Stripe's secure checkout page, and your card details go to Stripe, never to us. Stripe tells us the payment went through and the amount. Your guests' payments are set up later, directly with Stripe, in your own Stripe account.
Why we collect it
To build and launch your booking site, to get in touch with you about it, and to set up the pieces it needs, like calendar sync, your Google Business Profile, and your welcome card. Your calendar links are private, so we only use them to keep your site's availability in sync.
Where it's stored
When you tap Continue to payment, your answers are checked and saved in a database run by Supabase, the company we use to store them. The website itself can't read or change saved answers, so the only people who can see them are our team, signed in to our own Supabase account.
To keep bots out, the last step uses Cloudflare Turnstile, a quick security check that usually runs without you doing anything. Cloudflare sees basic technical details about your browser to do this.
When you tap "Fill in the form for me," the listing text you pasted is sent to Anthropic, the company that makes the AI model Claude, so it can fill in the form for you. Only the text you paste is sent. We never visit or copy your listing page. To keep this fair for everyone, we count how often each visitor uses it, using a scrambled code made from your internet address, not the address itself, and we delete those counts after two days.
If you add a cover photo to your preview, it stays in your browser. It's never uploaded or saved.
We use Resend to send email. That includes a copy of your answers to our own inbox, and your confirmation email after you pay.
While you're filling in the form, a draft is saved in your browser on your own device so you don't lose your place. It's cleared once your payment goes through.
If you came to us through a referral link, your browser keeps the referral code for 60 days, and we save it with your answers so we can thank the person who sent you. The code names them, not you.
Your browser also keeps a note of how you first found us for 60 days, such as the name of an ad campaign or the website that linked to us (just the site's name, not the page), and we save it with your answers so we know which ways of reaching hosts work.
We use Vapi for our AI phone assistant, which answers calls to our support line.
This site is hosted by Vercel, and its fonts come from Google Fonts. Like any website, those services see basic technical details such as your IP address when a page loads.
Guests who sign up on a host's site
We build booking sites for hosts at addresses like yourplace.bookdirectsetup.com. If you leave your email on one of them, for example to hear first when a place opens, we save your email, the words of the box you checked, and when you checked it, in the same Supabase database. It's kept for that one host only, it's never sold or shared, and it's used only for emails about stays at that place.
Every email we send for a host has an unsubscribe link, and one tap stops them. To keep bots out, the form uses Cloudflare Turnstile, and we count signups per visitor with a scrambled code made from your internet address, not the address itself. To have your email deleted, write to hello@bookdirectsetup.com.
How to ask us to delete it
Email us at hello@bookdirectsetup.com from the address you used on the form and ask us to delete your answers. We'll delete them and let you know when it's done. The same address works for any other question about your information, or you can call (928) 455-8885.
Calls to our support line are answered by an AI assistant and may be recorded and summarized so we can follow up.
