This Privacy Policy describes how Contract Simplify ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application (the "App").
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide
- Contract Documents: When you import contracts into the App, we process the documents you upload (PDFs, images) to extract and analyze text. This data is stored locally on your device by default.
- Contract Metadata: We store information about your contracts such as titles, file names, contract types, and analysis results.
- User Preferences: We store your app settings including appearance preferences and data retention settings.
1.2 Automatically Collected Information

- Usage Analytics: We collect anonymous usage data including app events (e.g., contract imports, analyses completed, features used) to improve our service. This data does not include personally identifiable information.
- Product Interaction Data: We track how you interact with the App (e.g., which features you use, how often you use them) for analytics purposes.
1.3 Third-Party Services
- AI Service Providers: When you request contract analysis, your contract text is sent to third-party AI service providers for processing. These providers' use of your data is governed by their respective privacy policies. We do not store your contract content on these providers' servers beyond the API request.
- Analytics Service Providers: We use third-party analytics services to collect anonymous analytics data. These services' privacy practices are governed by their respective privacy policies.
- Apple Services: If you enable iCloud sync, your data is stored in your iCloud account, subject to Apple's privacy policy.

- To understand how users interact with the App and improve our features
- To provide customer support and respond to your inquiries

3. Data Storage and Security
- Local Storage: By default, all contract data is stored locally on your device. We use secure storage mechanisms provided by iOS/macOS.
- Cloud Storage: If you enable iCloud sync, your data is stored in your personal iCloud account, encrypted by Apple's infrastructure.
