Good point, you're absolutely right there is this barrier, even if rationally ideas are rarely stolen. I hadn't thought about it from that angle. Will add a clear privacy note on the landing page. Thanks for flagging this!
One thing: my immediate gut reaction was "will they steal my idea?" On reflection, I think that's actually a super common concern among your target users. Early-stage founders are often paranoid about idea theft - even if it's usually irrational (execution >> ideas), the anxiety is real. This could be a conversion killer if not addressed.
Might be worth adding something visible about data privacy/handling right on the landing page.
