4. Confidentiality of Startup Information
We know founders upload sensitive material. We treat your pitch decks, startup ideas, and conversations as confidential.
Your content is never shared with other users or unrelated third parties. Your content is only processed by the infrastructure providers required to operate the service — for AI processing (Anthropic), file storage, and database hosting.
Access to user data is restricted to authorized systems and the small set of service providers needed to run the platform.
5. AI Processing and Third-Party AI Providers
AskLeo uses Anthropic’s Claude AI models to generate responses and startup evaluations. When you use AskLeo, your conversations and uploaded content are transmitted to Anthropic’s API for processing.
Per Anthropic’s API policies, customer data submitted through the API is not used to train Anthropic’s models by default.
We do not use your content to train our own AI systems.
6. Data Storage and Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your information:
- HTTPS encryption for all data transmission
- Secure cloud infrastructure
- Database protections through Supabase (PostgreSQL)
- Encrypted cloud file storage for uploaded documents
Data is processed and stored in the United States.
No system can guarantee absolute security, but we apply current best practices.
7. Data Retention and Deletion
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service.
You may:
- Delete your account at any time
- Request deletion of uploaded files or conversations
- Contact us to request permanent data removal
To request deletion, email leo@numeal.app.
We may also delete inactive uploaded files after extended periods of inactivity.
