Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 1, 2024
Our Core Commitment
Your data is yours. We do not use your conversations to train AI models. We do not sell your data. We do not share your data except as required to provide our services or comply with law.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Account Information
When you create an account, we collect your email address, name (optional), and payment information (processed securely by our payment provider). We use this information to provide and manage your account.
1.2 Conversation Data
We store the conversations you have with AI models through our platform. This data is necessary to provide core functionality including conversation history, search, and continuity. Your conversation data is:
- Never used to train AI models — We have contractual agreements with all model providers prohibiting training on your data
- Encrypted at rest and in transit — Using AES-256 and TLS 1.3
- Accessible only to you — Unless you explicitly share
- Deletable upon request — You can delete your data at any time
1.3 Usage Data
We collect anonymized usage data to improve our service, including feature usage patterns, error logs, and performance metrics. This data cannot be used to identify individual users or reconstruct conversations.
1.4 Uploaded Files
Files you upload for AI analysis are processed to provide the requested functionality. Files are stored securely with the same protections as conversation data and are not used for any purpose other than serving your request.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve our services
- Process transactions and send related information
- Send technical notices, updates, and support messages
- Respond to your comments, questions, and requests
- Monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities
- Detect, investigate, and prevent security incidents
- Comply with legal obligations
3. How We Share Your Information
We share your information only in the following circumstances:
3.1 AI Model Providers
When you send a message, that message is transmitted to the AI model provider (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) to generate a response. We maintain enterprise agreements with all providers that explicitly prohibit them from using your data to train their models.
3.2 Service Providers
We use trusted third-party services for payment processing, email delivery, and infrastructure. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for providing services to us.
3.3 Legal Requirements
We may disclose your information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
3.4 Business Transfers
If AOCodex is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change.
4. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data:
- Encryption at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3)
- Regular security audits and penetration testing
- Access controls and authentication requirements
- Monitoring and alerting for suspicious activity
- Employee security training and background checks
5. Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. You can delete your conversations at any time. Upon account deletion, we remove your data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
