This Privacy Policy explains how Augle, Inc. ("Augle," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use our website, application, and multi-agent deliberation services (collectively, the "Service"). It applies to visitors, registered users, and anyone whose information we process in connection with the Service. By using the Service, you acknowledge the practices described in this Policy.
Augle, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is the data controller responsible for the personal information described in this Policy, except where we act as a processor on behalf of an organizational customer, in which case that organization is the controller and Augle's obligations are governed by a separate data processing agreement.
We collect the following categories of information:
We collect information directly from you (account creation, session submissions, support requests), automatically through your use of the Service (usage and device data via cookies and similar technologies), and, in limited cases, from third parties such as our payment processor or, where applicable, single sign-on providers you choose to connect.
We use collected information to:
Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing (for example, under the EU/UK GDPR), we rely on: performance of a contract with you (providing the Service you've signed up for), our legitimate interests (improving and securing the Service, preventing fraud), your consent (for optional communications or cookies, where required), and compliance with legal obligations. [To be confirmed with counsel based on your user base's jurisdictions.]
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:
We maintain a current list of sub-processors who may process personal information on our behalf (for example, cloud hosting, payment processing, and AI model providers). [A specific, maintained sub-processor list will be published or made available on request prior to launch.]
When you submit a document (PDF or DOCX) or a URL as evidence for a session, Augle processes that content to run the deliberation and generate a Finding. URLs are captured once as a frozen snapshot at the time of submission, together with a timestamp and content hash, rather than accessed live on an ongoing basis. Illustrative or example sessions shown on our public Outcomes pages do not contain real user-submitted content unless explicitly labeled otherwise.
We retain account and session information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Specific retention periods vary by data type — for example, financial records are generally retained longer to meet tax and accounting obligations, while device logs are generally retained for a shorter operational window. [A detailed retention schedule by data category will be finalized with counsel and published here.] You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time, subject to these legal retention requirements.
Depending on your location, you may have rights to:
To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. [Region-specific disclosures, including under GDPR and CCPA/CPRA, and any applicable identity-verification procedure, to be finalized with counsel prior to publication.]
Augle does not sell personal information for money, and does not "share" personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act. [To be confirmed with counsel once advertising/analytics vendor stack is finalized.]
We use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:
You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling certain cookies may affect Service functionality. [A cookie consent banner and preference center will be implemented prior to launch where required by law.]
We use technical and organizational measures designed to protect your information, described in more detail on our Security page. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
In the event of a security incident affecting your personal information, we will notify affected users and, where required, relevant regulators, without undue delay and in accordance with applicable law.
The Service is not directed to individuals under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can investigate and remove it.
Augle is based in the United States, and information we collect may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate, which may have data protection laws different from those in your country. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers, such as Standard Contractual Clauses. [Transfer mechanism disclosures to be finalized with counsel prior to publication.]
Findings are generated by an automated multi-agent system. Augle does not use this automated processing to make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects concerning you as an individual; Findings are informational outputs for your own use and judgment.
The Service may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and encourage you to review their privacy policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here with a revised "Last updated" date, and where changes are material, we will provide additional notice, such as an email or in-product notification.
