    Infrastructure Providers
    • Cloud infrastructure providers (hosting, authentication, database, storage)
    • Stripe (payments)
    • Email service providers
    • AI model providers used to generate assistant responses

    All act as data processors under GDPR.

    If Required by Law
    • Under a court order
    • To law enforcement where legally required
    • To comply with regulatory obligations

    We never disclose data voluntarily to third parties for non-legal reasons.

  7. Automated Access & Billing Decisions

    Some account actions are automated, including entitlement checks, subscription status checks, and read-only/lifecycle gating based on billing state.

    • These checks help us deliver the contract, prevent misuse, and apply account rules consistently.
    • If you believe an automated account state is wrong, contact support to request review.

    • Request correction

    You may disable cookies in your browser, but the Platform may not function correctly. A separate Cookie Policy will provide full details.

  10. Data Retention
    • Your account data is kept while your account is active
    • Failed renewals may enter a grace phase (typically up to 5 days, or as stated in billing notices) with billing reminders
    • After lapse, account features may move to read-only until billing is resumed
    • Hard-lock/archive phase may apply around day 30 from lapse, with warning notices sent before the milestone
    • Deletion phase may apply around day 90 from lapse, with warning notices sent before the milestone
    • You can resume a paid plan before deletion deadlines to restore normal access
    • Backups may persist briefly
    • If your account is deleted, associated data is removed unless legally required otherwise

    Where timelines are updated, we will reflect this in product notices and policy updates.

  11. Browser Storage

    To improve reliability and continuity, we may store limited account-related data in browser storage (such as draft notes and dismissed notification preferences).

    • This data is tied to your browser session/profile and can be cleared in browser settings.
    • Browser storage is used for product functionality, not ad tracking.

    The Platform is not intended for individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.
