By using HeySquib's services, you consent to the data practices described in this policy. Our service is strictly intended for users located within the United States, and we do not allow international users to access or utilize our platform. We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, and any changes will be communicated via email notification. Continued use of our services following any updates constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

Additionally, Stripe, our payment processor, collects payment details, but we do not store or have direct access to users' financial records or credit card information. We may also collect non-personal data such as IP addresses, device information, and location data, which is used for internal business processes, improving our services, and analytics. While we do not collect biometric or other sensitive data, we reserve the right to use the information we gather in accordance with our operational needs. All data collected is subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy and applicable U.S. laws.

2.3 Information We Collect Automatically
We automatically collect certain information about your usage of the Service, including pages viewed, features used, time spent on the platform, and interaction patterns. Additionally, we gather device-related data such as IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers, and mobile network information. We also use Google Analytics to track usage patterns, traffic sources, user behavior metrics, and geographic locations based on IP addresses. This information helps us improve the Service and tailor our offerings to better meet user needs.
2.4 Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to maintain your session, remember your preferences, analyze usage patterns, and improve our Service. These technologies help enhance your experience by enabling personalized interactions and seamless navigation.

Additionally, we use this data to offer customer support, send important service updates, and analyze usage patterns to enhance performance. Fraud detection and compliance with legal obligations are also key priorities, and our data processing practices align with these objectives. By collecting and analyzing information, we continuously work to improve user experience and maintain a secure, efficient platform.
4. How We Share Your Information
4.1 Service Providers
We may share information with third-party service providers, including Stripe for payment processing, Google Analytics for usage analysis, and cloud service providers for hosting. These partnerships allow us to maintain and improve our Service, ensuring reliability and security for our users. Each service provider adheres to strict security and privacy standards, and we only share the necessary information required to fulfill their functions.
4.2 AI-Collected Data
By using the Service, you expressly acknowledge and consent to the collection, processing, and potential sharing of data gathered by our AI agents, including but not limited to social media content, direct messages, images, videos, and other publicly accessible or authorized content from connected platforms. Such data may be used to improve AI model performance, provide analytics, and facilitate integrations with third-party platforms as necessary to fulfill contractual obligations. HeySquib does not sell personally identifiable information; however, we may share aggregated, anonymized, or derived data with affiliated partners, service providers, or as required by law. If you do not consent to this data collection, you must refrain from using the Service or disable specific integrations through your account settings.
4.3 Other Sharing
We may share information in response to legal requests, to protect our rights or property, and during corporate transactions such as mergers or acquisitions. Additionally, information may be shared with your explicit consent when necessary for service delivery or compliance with regulatory requirements. We prioritize user privacy and limit data sharing to circumstances where it is legally required or essential for business operations.
5. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Users are encouraged to use strong passwords and practice safe browsing habits to further enhance security. Our commitment to security includes regular system updates, encryption protocols, and access controls.
6. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as necessary to provide the Service and comply with legal obligations. When you delete your account, we remove your personal data from active databases, though some information may remain in backups or records. Data retention policies are designed to balance operational requirements with privacy considerations. Backup data is eventually purged in accordance with security best practices.
