Privacy Policy

Effective: April 16, 2026 Last updated: May 5, 2026

Sinaps ("we", "the App") is a mobile application that gives you access to AI assistants. To run the service we need to process some of your data. This policy explains what data, why, and how we protect it.

1. What data we collect

1.1. Directly from you

• Name and email — via the Clerk authentication service (Google / Apple / email+password)
• Chat messages with agents — full text of your messages and the agents' replies
• Voice messages — audio recording when you use voice input (transcribed to text; the audio is not retained after transcription)
• Images — photos you attach to messages
• Reminders — text, date, and time of scheduled push notifications

1.2. Automatically

• Time zone — derived from device settings (IANA format, e.g. Europe/Moscow)
• Push token — a technical identifier used to deliver push notifications (contains no personal data)
• Request metadata — timestamp, IP address, app version (for technical logs and diagnostics)

1.3. Access to device contacts (mobile app only)

Access to device contacts (mobile app only). If you use the "Networker" AI agent, the app may request access to your device address book — but only when you explicitly tap "Pick from contacts" in the agent's interface. The address book is not uploaded to the server as a whole. The server only stores the names and contact details you explicitly select and confirm on the agent's card. You can delete any saved contacts in the agent's "Memory" section at any time. You can revoke contacts access in system Settings → Sinaps → Contacts.

1.4. What we do NOT collect

• Location
• Address book entries (except those explicitly confirmed via Networker — see §1.3)
• Browser history
• Photo gallery (only the photos you explicitly select)
• Payment information

2. How we use the data

• Running chats with AI agents — messages, images, voice
• Authentication and identification — email, name
• Personalising agent replies — facts about you (platform memory), behaviour rules
• Push notifications (reminders) — push token, time zone
• Crash diagnostics and service improvement — technical logs

Important: your messages and facts are not used to train AI models. We do not sell your data to advertisers.

3. Who we share data with (sub-processors)

To operate the service we use third-party platforms. Each has its own privacy policy:

• OpenAI (USA) — we send message text, images, audio. Purpose: GPT replies, embeddings for search, voice transcription (Whisper)
• Anthropic (USA) — message text. Purpose: Claude replies
• Clerk (USA) — email, name. Purpose: authentication, account management
• Expo Push Service (USA) — push token, notification title/body. Purpose: delivery to APNs/FCM
• Hosting (servers in Russia) — all database data. Purpose: storage and processing

Data is transferred over secure channels (HTTPS / TLS 1.3). OpenAI and Anthropic, under their API terms, do not use your data to train models.

4. Data retention

• Messages and memory are kept indefinitely until you delete them manually or delete your account
• Auth tokens — encrypted, stored in the device's secure storage (iOS SecureStore)
• Push tokens are deleted automatically when you uninstall the app (iOS notifies us of revocation)
• Voice recordings — deleted right after transcription (only the resulting text is kept)

5. Your rights

You have the right to:

• View your data via the "Memory" screen in the app
• Delete individual messages, reminders, behaviour rules
• Export your data — email the support address below
• Delete your account entirely — email support; we remove all data within 30 days

6. Security

• Data transfer is HTTPS only
• Authentication — OAuth providers (Google, Apple) or email + hashed password
• Access tokens — kept in iOS SecureStore (hardware-backed device storage)
• Servers — firewalled, kept on a regular update schedule

7. Children

The app is not intended for users under 13. If we learn we have collected data from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will delete it.

8. Policy changes

We may update this policy. For material changes we will notify you in the app. The current version is always available at this URL.
