- document uploads or file storage;
- contract analysis or AI processing of user-submitted legal documents;

If any of these features are added to the public website in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly before or at the time of their introduction.
8. How We Use Personal Data
We use the personal data we collect for the following purposes:
- To respond to your inquiries, questions, and requests submitted via email, Telegram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, or any other contact channel.
- To provide information about our company, products, and services that you have requested.
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Website, including through analysis of aggregated technical log data.
- To ensure the security and integrity of the Website.
- To comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests from public authorities.
- To operate the AI assistant, generate responses, route requests, and escalate conversations to a human operator when appropriate.
- To detect abuse, prompt-injection attempts, out-of-scope requests, or attempts to obtain internal technical information about the assistant.
9. Legal Bases for Processing
Where applicable data protection laws require a legal basis, we process personal data on the following grounds:
- Consent — where you have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose (e.g., when you voluntarily contact us).
- Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, such as responding to inquiries, maintaining Website security, and improving our services, and those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
- Legal obligation — where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.
10. Contact Channels: Email, Telegram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn
When you contact us through third-party messaging or social platforms, you are also subject to the privacy policies of those platforms. We recommend that you review them:
- Telegram: telegram.org/privacy
- WhatsApp: whatsapp.com/legal/privacy-policy
- LinkedIn: linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy
We process messages received through these channels solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not sell, share, or use your messaging data for marketing, profiling, or automated decision-making.
11. AI Assistant and Operator Escalation
The Website may provide an AI-assisted chat interface to help visitors navigate the Website, learn about SmartSplitAI products, ask questions about Contract Review, request contact with the team, or receive general product information.
When you use the AI assistant, the messages you submit may be processed by server-side systems and by third-party AI infrastructure providers for the purpose of generating a response and routing your request. The AI assistant is limited to website, product, support, billing coordination, and contact-related topics.
The AI assistant does not provide legal, tax, accounting, financial, compliance, or other professional advice. For such matters, or when the assistant is uncertain, your request may be escalated to a human operator.
If a conversation requires operator escalation, limited information such as your message, selected language, page context, reason for escalation, and any contact details you voluntarily provide may be sent to the SmartSplitAI team through internal notification channels.
12. Cookies and Similar Technologies
At the current stage, the public website does not use:
- analytics cookies (e.g., Google Analytics);
- advertising cookies or remarketing pixels;
- marketing automation cookies;
- social media tracking pixels.
The Website may use strictly necessary technical mechanisms (such as server session logs) that are essential for the operation and security of the Website and do not require consent under most privacy frameworks.
If analytics or advertising tools are added later, this Policy will be updated and, where required by applicable law, a cookie consent mechanism will be provided.
13. Analytics and Yandex Metrica
With your consent, SmartSplitAI uses Yandex Metrica, a web analytics service provided by Yandex LLC, to understand how visitors use our public website and to improve its content, navigation, and performance. Our Yandex Metrica counter ID is 109809080.
When analytics is enabled, Yandex Metrica may process information such as online identifiers, cookie data, IP address, device and browser information, referring pages, visited pages, link interactions, and visit duration. This information is transmitted to and processed by Yandex under its applicable terms and privacy policy.
Yandex Metrica does not load until you select "Accept analytics." If you reject analytics, the counter is not loaded. Your choice is stored in your browser under the localStorage key "metrika_consent" and can later be changed using the "Cookie settings" control on the website.
Webvisor session recording and ecommerce tracking are disabled. We do not intentionally transmit names, email addresses, uploaded documents, contract contents, or form field values through this website analytics integration.
For more information, see the Yandex Metrica Terms of Use and Yandex Privacy Policy.
14. Data Sharing and Service Providers
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties.
Where we directly engage hosting, infrastructure, or email providers, they may process data to help us operate the Website. Such providers are contractually bound to process personal data only on our instructions and in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
AI infrastructure providers may process assistant messages solely for the purpose of generating responses and supporting the assistant functionality, subject to their applicable terms and data processing practices.
Internal notification tools may be used to notify the SmartSplitAI team when operator escalation is requested or required.
Third-party communication platforms such as Telegram, WhatsApp, and LinkedIn process data under their own privacy policies. We do not control their independent data processing practices.
We may also disclose personal data if required by law, court order, or governmental regulation, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of SmartSplitAI LLC, our users, or others.
15. International Data Transfers
Because the Website, hosting providers, communication tools, and service providers may operate in different countries, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence, including the United States.
Where required by applicable law, we will seek to use reasonable and applicable safeguards for international data transfers.
16. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law:
- Inquiry messages — for the duration of the communication and a reasonable period thereafter to maintain a record of correspondence, not exceeding 2 years unless a longer period is required by law or for legitimate business purposes.
- Technical server logs — retained for a limited period (typically up to 30 days) for security and operational purposes, then deleted or anonymized.
- AI assistant and operator escalation messages — may be retained for a limited period necessary to respond to the request, improve safety, prevent abuse, and maintain business records, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
When personal data is no longer needed, we will securely delete or anonymize it.
17. User Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction and applicable law, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Right of access — the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Right to rectification — the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
- Right to erasure — the right to request deletion of your personal data, subject to certain exceptions.
- Right to withdraw consent — where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

18. Security Measures
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures are appropriate to the nature and scope of the data we process on the public website.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
19. Children's Privacy
The Website is not directed to individuals under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that a child under 16 has provided us with personal data, we will take steps to delete such information. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at info@smartsplitai.net.
20. Third-Party Links
The Website contains links to third-party websites and services, including Telegram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, and separate SmartSplitAI product environments. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of those third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you use.
21. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or the features of the Website. When we make changes, we will update the "Effective date" at the top of this Policy.
