Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Scribbles (“Scribbles,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use our website, applications, and services (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information we collect

Information you provide. When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and any other information you choose to provide (such as a phone number for SMS capture or a profile photo). When you use the Service, we collect the content you create, save, or upload — scribbles, documents, sources, lists, and the objects you extract from them.

Information collected automatically. We collect basic usage information about your interactions with the Service, including device information, browser type, IP address, pages viewed, and features used. We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in and to understand how the Service is used.

Information from third parties. If you sign in using a third-party provider (for example, Google), we receive basic profile information from that provider. If you connect an integration (for example, an email account or a social platform), we receive data from that service as authorized by you.

How we use information

We use the information we collect to operate, maintain, and improve the Service; to authenticate you and keep your account secure; to provide AI features that extract, structure, and organize your content; to communicate with you about your account and product updates; to process payments; and to comply with legal obligations.

AI processing

Some Service features use third-party AI providers to process your content — for example, to extract structured objects from scribbles, generate suggestions, or summarize text. When we send your content to these providers, we do so under agreements that prohibit them from using your data to train their models. We do not sell your content, and we do not use your content to train models without your explicit consent.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with service providers who help us run the Service (such as hosting, payment processing, email delivery, and AI providers), when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. If you choose to publish content (for example, a shared page), that content is made publicly available at the URL you share.

Data retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. You can delete content at any time from within the Service. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information within a reasonable period, except where we are required to retain it for legal, accounting, or security purposes.

Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit, access controls, and regular security reviews. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we become aware of a breach that affects your information, we will notify you as required by law.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You can exercise most of these rights directly inside the Service, or by emailing us at the address below. We will respond within the time required by applicable law.

Children

The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

International transfers

We operate the Service from the United States, and your information may be processed in countries other than the one in which you live. We take appropriate steps to ensure that your information receives an adequate level of protection wherever it is processed.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or through the Service. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when this policy was last revised.
