Privacy Policy

Last updated: 16/06/2025

Introduction

Welcome to DataStripes. Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our application.

Information We May Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

• Personal Information: Such as your email address, name, and authentication data when you sign up or log in.
• Usage Data: Information about how you use the app, including actions taken, features used, and device/browser information.
• Project Data: Data you upload or create within the app, such as projects, documents, and related metadata.

How We Use Your Information

• Provide and maintain the app’s core functionality.
• Improve and personalize your experience.
• Communicate with you about updates, features, or support.
• Ensure the security and integrity of our services.

Authentication and Data Management via Firebase

DataStripes uses Firebase Authentication and Firebase Cloud Services for managing user authentication and data storage. This means that:

• User authentication is managed via federated identity providers such as Google and Microsoft through Firebase Authentication.
• All personal data and usage data are stored and processed using Firebase’s secure cloud infrastructure.
• Firebase’s own Privacy Policy applies in addition to this one.

Data Encryption and Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. In particular:

• Sensitive data, such as passwords or tokens, are not directly upload, but kept locally on your browser or app.
• When you explicitly make a project public, all sensitive data, such as passwords used for connecting to external databases, are encrypted and never stored in plain text.
• Data in transit and at rest is encrypted using modern cryptographic techniques.

However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your data only in the following cases:

• With service providers who help us operate the app (e.g., cloud hosting, analytics).
• If required by law or to protect our rights and users.
• With your explicit consent.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access, update, or delete your personal information.
• Object to or restrict certain processing.
• Withdraw consent at any time.

To exercise these rights, contact us at info@insightest.app.

Children's Privacy

Our app is not intended for children under the age of 13 (or equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Cookies and Local Storage

We may use cookies or local storage technologies to manage sessions, remember preferences, and enable secure authentication. By using the app, you consent to the use of these technologies as described.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to provide the service or as required by applicable laws. You can request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us.

Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for collecting and using your personal data depends on the information we collect and the context:

• Performance of a contract
• Your consent
• Compliance with a legal obligation
• Legitimate interests, where applicable

Personal Data

The app is not designed to collect or process sensitive personal data such as health information, financial data, or biometric data. We do not knowingly collect such information.

We do not collect or process any personal data that is not necessary for the app's functionality.

We do not use your personal data for profiling or automated decision-making.

Thus, any personal data you may share with us is entirely voluntary and at your discretion. We encourage you to avoid sharing sensitive personal information unless absolutely necessary.

Third-Party Services

DataStripes may integrate with third-party services (e.g., Google, Microsoft) for authentication or data import. Please review their respective privacy policies for more information on their data practices.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted in this document, and your continued use of the app constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
