Last Updated: 11 May 2025

LegalClause AI ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal data when you use our website, services, and AI-powered tools (collectively, the "Services"). By using the Services, you agree to this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of data:

  • Personal Information: Name, email address, billing information, and other data you provide during registration, account creation, or when contacting us.
  • Contract Content: Documents or text you upload for analysis, which may contain personal or sensitive information.
  • Usage Data: Information about your interactions with the Services, such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and timestamps, collected automatically via cookies or similar technologies.
  • Communication Data: Information you provide when contacting us, including support inquiries or feedback.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data for the following purposes:

  • To provide, maintain, and improve the Services, including processing and analyzing uploaded contracts.
  • To communicate with you, such as responding to inquiries or sending service-related notices.
  • To personalize your experience, such as tailoring AI outputs to your preferences.
  • To monitor and analyze usage trends to enhance functionality and security.
  • To train and improve our AI models, using anonymized or aggregated data where possible. User-uploaded contract content is not used for training without explicit consent.
  • To comply with legal obligations, such as tax or regulatory requirements.

3. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share data with:

  • Service Providers: Third parties (e.g., cloud hosting, payment processors, analytics providers) who process data on our behalf under strict data processing agreements to support the Services.
  • Legal Authorities: If required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users.
  • Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with notice to users and appropriate safeguards.

We ensure shared data is limited to what is necessary and protected by contractual safeguards.

4. Data Security

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including:

  • Encryption of data in transit and at rest.
  • Access controls and authentication protocols.
  • Regular security assessments and monitoring for vulnerabilities.

Despite these measures, no system is completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

5. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to provide the Services, fulfill legal obligations, or pursue legitimate business purposes (e.g., fraud prevention). Contract content is retained for the duration of your account or as needed to provide analysis, unless you request deletion. Upon account deletion or your request, we will delete your data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law. See our Terms and Conditions for details.

  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your data, subject to legal exceptions.
  • Restriction: Request restriction of data processing in certain cases.
  • Objection: Object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing.
  • Data Portability: Request your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

7. International Data Transfers

Your data may be processed outside your country, or other jurisdictions. We ensure appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions, to protect your data in compliance with applicable laws (e.g., GDPR, UK GDPR).

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance functionality, analyze usage, and personalize content. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings or our cookie consent tool. Essential cookies are required for the Services to function; non-essential cookies require your consent.
