What We Collect

Account and Profile

If you register, we process information you provide such as name or display name, email, password hash, and optional profile fields. You are responsible for any personal data you include in free-text fields.

Orders and Workspace

We process Order details and related materials you submit, including requirements, references, attachments, and messages, to deliver the Product, provide support, and maintain an audit trail.

Service Use, Logs, and Cookies

When you access the Website, we collect usage data and set cookies or similar technologies to keep sessions and security working, remember preferences, measure and improve performance, and prevent fraud and abuse. Usage data may include IP address, device and browser type, operating system, language, timestamps, pages viewed, referrer, approximate location derived from IP, and event telemetry. You can manage non-essential cookies via our Cookie Settings and your browser. Disabling some cookies may affect functionality.

Payments

Payments are processed by third-party payment processors. We do not collect or store full payment card numbers on our servers. For reconciliation, fraud prevention, tax, and accounting, we may retain limited payment metadata such as transaction ID, time, amount, currency, the first 6 and last 4 digits of the card, and issuing country, subject to legal obligations.

Communications and Feedback

If you contact us or respond to surveys, we process the information you provide for support, quality, and product improvement. Certain service communications are transactional and may be non-optional, such as security alerts and order notices.

Social Media Pages

We operate official pages on social networks. Interactions with those pages are subject to the networks' own privacy terms. We may receive aggregated insights for analytics and brand safety.

Sensitive Data

We do not seek to collect sensitive personal data unless you explicitly provide it and we have a lawful basis to process it. Please avoid uploading unnecessary sensitive data.

How and Why We Use Data

We process personal data to provide the Services, authenticate users, maintain accounts, accept Orders, generate and deliver Products, operate AI Tools, and provide support. We process data to protect accounts, investigate suspicious activity, enforce our Terms, and detect spam or misuse. We analyze performance to understand feature adoption and service reliability, improve user experience and quality, and run tests using aggregated or de-identified data. We send order confirmations, service or feature notices, policy updates, and responses to inquiries. Marketing emails are sent only where permitted and can be opted out at any time. We also process data to meet tax, accounting, and legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, and establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

AI-Specific Notes

We process your inputs and the resulting outputs to provide the Tools, troubleshoot issues, ensure safety, and improve service quality. We may use vetted infrastructure and AI model providers acting as our processors under data protection agreements. We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your personal data or content to train third-party foundation models for their independent purposes. Where providers offer an opt-out from training, we enable it by default or via contract.

Legal Bases Where Required

Where applicable law such as GDPR requires a legal basis, we rely on contract to provide the Services you request, legitimate interests for security, fraud prevention, analytics, improvement, and support balanced against your rights, consent for non-essential cookies or marketing where required, and legal obligation for tax, accounting, and regulatory requests.

Sharing and International Transfers

Service Providers

We use carefully selected vendors for hosting, storage and content delivery, security, analytics, email delivery, customer support, payments, and AI infrastructure. They process data only under our instructions and subject to confidentiality and security obligations.

No Selling or Cross-Context Behavioral Sharing

We do not sell personal information and do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising as defined by CCPA/CPRA.

Business Transfers and Legal Disclosures

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, personal data may transfer subject to this Policy or a successor policy with materially similar protections. We may disclose data if required by law or to protect rights, safety, and the integrity of the Services.

International Transfers

We may process data in countries other than yours. Where required, we use safeguards such as EU and UK Standard Contractual Clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy. Account and order records are retained for the life of the account and a reasonable period thereafter. Payment and tax records are retained as required by law. Logs and telemetry are retained for a limited period for security and reliability. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymized.

Your Choices and Rights
