Full policy Last updated September 15, 2026 · 9 sections
  1. What Information We Collect

    Submitted content. When you run an AI pre-check, we process the text you paste or the file you upload, along with the information needed to return your result. Technical information. We may collect limited data such as your IP address, browser or device type, pages viewed, and request timestamps to operate and protect the service. Contact information. If you email us, we receive your email address and the information you include in your message.

  2. How We Handle Submitted Content

    Your text or uploaded file is used only to provide the AI pre-check you request. Submitted content is not added to a repository or sold. It is not used to train our model and is not shared with third-party service providers. Submitted content is deleted within 24 hours. Because we do not add your work to a repository, using this service does not create a stored copy that could later cause a 100% similarity match.

  3. Why We Process Information

    We process information to provide the requested AI pre-check, display your result, maintain and troubleshoot the service, prevent misuse, protect site security, respond to support requests, and meet applicable legal obligations. We do not use this information to build advertising profiles.

  4. How Long We Keep Information

    Submitted content is deleted within 24 hours. Limited technical records and support messages are kept only for as long as reasonably necessary to operate and secure the service, respond to requests, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations. When information is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it where appropriate.

  5. Cookies and Local Storage

    We may use essential cookies or local storage to remember preferences, support core site features, and keep the service working as expected. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. You can control cookies through your browser, although blocking essential storage may affect some site features.

  6. Service Providers and Data Sharing

    We do not sell personal information. Uploaded content is not shared with third-party service providers. We may use service providers for limited operational tasks, such as website hosting and email delivery, where they process only the technical or contact information needed to perform those tasks. They must handle that information according to our instructions and appropriate confidentiality and security requirements. We may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect users, our rights, or the security of the service.

  7. Your Privacy Rights

    Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to personal information we hold about you, receive a copy, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, restrict certain processing, or object to certain uses. You may also have the right to complain to your local privacy or data-protection authority. Contact us to submit a request. We may need to verify your identity and may retain information when required by law.

  8. Children’s Privacy

    The service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the service, contact us so we can review and delete it where required.

  9. Changes to This Policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy when our service, practices, or legal obligations change. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date on this page. If a change materially affects how we handle personal information, we will provide an appropriate notice on the site.
