Privacy Policy

1. Overview

Gathered ("the App") is developed and operated by Gathered Inc. ("we," "us," or "our").

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use Gathered. We are committed to respecting your privacy and collecting only the data necessary to provide the app's core functionality.

2. Information We Collect

We collect limited information solely to operate and improve Gathered.

a. User-Provided Content

When you save content to Gathered (such as links, videos, posts, bookmarks, images, or text), that content may be temporarily transmitted to our secure backend systems to:

• Extract key details using AI (e.g., titles, topics, summaries, metadata)
• Organize saved content into lists, categories, or collections
• Enable features such as reminders, search, and insights

All saved content belongs to you. We do not sell your data, show targeted advertising based on it, or use your content to train public AI models.

b. Automatically Collected Information

We may collect limited, non-personal information such as:

• App usage statistics (e.g., feature usage and crash reports)
• Device and technical data (e.g., operating system version, app version)

This information is aggregated and used only to improve performance and reliability.

c. Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party service providers to support app functionality, such as:

• Analytics
• Notifications
• Cloud infrastructure
• AI-powered processing

These providers process only the minimum data necessary and are bound by confidentiality and security obligations.

3. How We Use Information

We use collected information to:

• Save, organize, and retrieve your content
• Provide AI-powered summaries and key-detail extraction
• Sync user data securely across devices
• Improve features and app performance
• Manage subscriptions and access
• Provide technical and customer support

We do not sell or rent your personal data to advertisers or third parties.

4. Data Storage & Retention

Local & Cloud Storage

Most user data is stored securely on your device and/or in encrypted cloud storage to enable syncing across devices.

Temporary AI Processing

Content sent to our servers for AI processing is processed only as needed and deleted once the task is complete.

Analytics Data

Aggregated usage data may be retained to monitor app performance and stability.

5. User Control & Data Deletion

You remain in control of your data.

• You may delete saved content at any time within the app

• You may request account or data deletion at any time by contacting us

Requests will be handled within a reasonable time frame.

6. User-Generated Content

Gathered allows users to save and organize their own content.

We are not responsible for the nature of the content users choose to store, including content that may be explicit, offensive, or unlawful. By using Gathered, you agree not to upload or save content that violates applicable laws or the rights of others.

7. Children's Privacy

Gathered is intended for general audiences.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us and we will act promptly to remove it.

8. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including:

• Secure network connections
• Encrypted data storage where applicable
• Access controls and infrastructure safeguards

While no system can guarantee absolute security, we use industry-standard practices to help protect your data.
