CLAUSEWATCH
Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how ClauseWatch (“ClauseWatch,” “we,” or “us”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use ClauseWatch (the “Service”). The Service reads documents you upload and watches the dates in them, so what we hold is those documents and what was read out of them — nothing else.
What we collect
- Account information — your name, business name, email, and sign-in details.
- Contracts you upload — the file, the text extracted from it, and the character offsets every quoted paragraph indexes into. The extracted text is what the nightly pass re-reads; the offsets are what let the Service show you the sentence a date came from.
- What was read, and what was not — per contract, the located clauses with their source spans, and for the clauses that could not be located, the reason. No date is stored that the document does not contain.
- Usage data — basic information about how you use the Service, used to keep it running and improve it.
How we use it
- To read the clauses that carry a deadline out of the contracts you upload.
- To re-read those contracts nightly against the current date and tell you what changed.
- To draft, and — only after you approve it — send, a notice you have asked to go out.
- To provide, secure, and improve the Service.
- To communicate with you about your account.
We do not sell your personal data, and your contracts are not used to train any model, ours or anyone else’s. The extraction is deterministic pattern matching over your own document’s text; there is no model in that path to train.
Connected accounts
Version one connects to nothing. Upload is the entire system of record: there is no OAuth grant, no mailbox scope and no admin consent to give. If you later connect a document source such as Google Drive, it is authorized through that provider’s own interface with the narrowest permission the feature needs, and disconnecting it stops future access.
Sharing
We share data only with service providers that help us operate ClauseWatch (such as hosting and payment processing) under agreements that protect it, or when required by law. A notice goes only to the recipient on the contract it concerns, and only after you approve it.
Retention
We keep your data for as long as your account is active and as needed to provide the Service. When you close your account, we delete or de-identify your data within a reasonable period, except where we must retain it to meet legal obligations.
Security
We use technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit and access controls. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to keep your information safe and to limit access to what each feature requires.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. To make a request, email us at hello@thecompound.tech.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies to run the site and understand usage. See our Cookie Policy for details.
Changes
We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide reasonable notice. The “last updated” date above reflects the current version.
