Links

We sometimes provide links to third-party websites in the app. While on these sites, these parties may collect information about you. Because we do not control the information policies or practices of these third parties, you should review their privacy policies to learn more about how they collect and use personally identifiable information.

We may use your personal information when we have a valid reason to do so. This includes:

  • To be able to respond to an inquiry;

How We Protect Your Information

We take the greatest care in the security of your submitted information. Our website uses up-to-date Secure Socket Layers (SSL) encryption in order to protect the transmission of your data upon submission to our servers.

Where your information is stored

Depending on the type of information you have submitted, your data will either be stored securely in a database on our server; or in the database of our trusted third-party partners, if data was directly submitted by you for a particular purpose on our website. These third-party partners include:

  • Google – for anonymous statistical information, and/or personalized data (for visitors from outside the EU).
  • Hotjar – for analytical and statistical information.
  • OpenAI – to process search queries and document processing during ingestion.

International Transfers

Due to the multinational locations of our servers, as well as our third-party partners, any information which you consented to provide may be transferred to a location outside of the country or region you are located in. Data will only be transferred to either:

  • our servers;
  • trusted third-party partners, as indicated in the above section, which we determine to have adequate transparency and security parameters in place for the protection, storage and accessibility of your data.

Data breach prevention

Our servers and website infrastructure are kept up to date and secured by a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to protect against a data breach via a third party attack.

In the unlikely event of a breach where your stored data is, or may have been compromised, we will inform you within 24 hours after becoming aware of the data breach, and provide you with our action(s) taken in order to protect your data moving forward.

Note that due to a multitude of different vulnerabilities which are present during the submission of data and are outside of our control (local computer viruses, unsecured/compromised internet connections, etc.), we cannot guarantee and are not responsible for compromised data which occurs during the submission of data and as the result of such factors outside of our control. However, once the data has been submitted and is stored in our infrastructure, we ensure that the data is responsibly held and secured.

Data Controller

The data controller is the organization/entity responsible for the protection of information on and submitted to this website. The Data Controller is Longbeard. Complaints, concerns or requests should be sent via the contact form here.

How Long We Store Your Data For

Personal information submitted directly on our website through a form is stored indefinitely, or until manual deletion is requested. Data collected by Google for statistical and personalization purposes is retained for 14 months before being deleted automatically. More information about Google’s data retention policy can be found here.

Unless you explicitly opt out of logging (on the Privacy tab), your submitted data will be stored in our database to enable user features (chat history) and may be processed for model training purposes.
