For any questions regarding the protection of your personal data, you may contact NAYAVADA by contacting us directly.
Data We Collect
NAYAVADA collects the following categories of data depending on the context of use.
Account Data
When you create an account: name, email address, encrypted password. This data is necessary to provide the Service.
Payment Data
When you purchase credits: payment data is collected and processed exclusively by Stripe. NAYAVADA does not store any credit card data.
Usage Data
When you use the Service: conversation content (inputs and outputs), uploaded files, session metadata (timestamps, mode used, language selected).
You agree to anonymise any documents you submit to the Service. Before submitting a document containing third-party personal data, you must replace them with pseudonyms. Content submitted to the Service is transmitted to LLM Providers in isolation: it is neither stored nor reused by these providers beyond the immediate processing of the request. NAYAVADA retains conversations in accordance with the retention periods described in Section 5. You bear sole responsibility if you submit third-party personal data without anonymisation.
The Service may generate non-invertible numerical vectors from exchanges to improve conversational continuity. These vectors contain no personal data and cannot be used to reconstruct conversation content. You may request their deletion at any time.
Technical Data
Data automatically transmitted by your browser: IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited. This data is used exclusively for the operation and security of the Service.
Purposes and Legal Bases
Each processing activity relies on a legal basis in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Performance of Contract
The provision of the Service, user account management, conversation processing, billing, and technical support are based on the performance of the contract between you and NAYAVADA (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).
Legitimate Interest
The security of the Service and prevention of abuse are based on NAYAVADA's legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Legal Obligation
The retention of certain data for evidentiary purposes, tax compliance, or in response to lawful government requests is based on NAYAVADA's legal obligations (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR).
No Model Training
No user data is used to train any artificial intelligence model. Neither NAYAVADA nor its LLM Providers retrain their models on user data. This is a contractual commitment.
Cookies
NAYAVADA uses only technical cookies strictly necessary for Service operation: session authentication and user preferences.
NAYAVADA does not use any advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or third-party analytics tools.
Data Retention
Retention periods vary by data category and account status.
Conversations
Conversations are retained according to their status. Standard conversations (not marked as favourites and not filed in a folder) are automatically deleted after 90 days of inactivity. Conversations marked as favourites or filed in a folder are retained for 365 days of inactivity, then automatically deleted. The inactivity date corresponds to the last modification of the conversation. You may manually delete your conversations at any time from the interface.
An automated daily purge deletes conversations whose retention period has expired. You may export your conversations in Markdown format and manually delete any conversation immediately and irreversibly at any time.
Account Data
Account data is retained for the duration of your use of the Service. Upon account deletion, personal data is deleted within thirty (30) days, except where retention is required by law.
Inactive Accounts
An account with no credits and no activity is retained for twelve (12) months, then permanently deleted. You will be notified at least thirty (30) days before deletion.
Subprocessors and Data Sharing
NAYAVADA uses specialised subprocessors to provide the Service. No subprocessor uses your data to train its models.
