Privacy Policy

Document Tools — plain-English translator, ToS/privacy policy risk scanner, and contract risk highlighter.

Last updated: August 3, 2026

The short version

We built these tools to be safe to use with sensitive documents. Your uploaded documents are processed in memory to generate your result and are sent only to Anthropic (the AI provider powering these tools) for that single request — they are never written to disk, never stored on our servers, and never used to train any AI model. We don't sell your data to anyone, and we don't run advertising trackers.

What we process, and why

When you paste text, upload a file, or paste a URL into one of our tools, that content is sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate your plain-English explanation, risk scan, or clause review. This happens in memory, in real time, for the sole purpose of producing your result. We do not retain a copy of your documents after your result is returned, and we do not use your content to train any AI model — this runs on Anthropic's business API, which by default is not used for model training.

Please avoid uploading documents containing extremely sensitive identifiers (e.g. full government ID numbers, passwords, or payment card numbers) beyond what's naturally present in the type of document the tool is meant for (insurance letters, contracts, policies, etc.).

Cookies and similar technology

• Referral cookie (dt_ref): if you arrive via someone's referral link, we remember it for 30 days so that person can get credit if you use a tool. It stores only a short referral code, nothing about you personally.
• Subscriber cookie: if you subscribe for extra usage, a signed cookie identifies your subscription status with our payment processor, Stripe, so we can check your access level. It contains no payment details.
• Analytics: we use Umami, a privacy-focused analytics service that does not use cookies and does not track individual visitors across sites. It only tells us aggregate numbers — how many people visited a page, and how many people used a given tool — never who you are.

What we don't do

• We don't sell, rent, or share your documents or personal data with advertisers.
• We don't use your uploaded content to train AI models.
• We don't require an account or ask for personal information to use the free tools.
• We don't run third-party ad-tracking scripts.

Other information we handle

Our server briefly uses your IP address for anti-abuse purposes only — to apply fair daily usage limits per visitor and to detect referral fraud. This is held in memory and resets whenever our server restarts (which happens routinely); it is not a permanent record tied to you.

If you subscribe for additional usage, payment is handled entirely by Stripe, our payment processor. We never see or store your card details — Stripe's own privacy policy governs that data.

Third parties we use

• Anthropic — processes document content to generate your result (Anthropic's privacy policy).
• Stripe — processes payments for subscribers (Stripe's privacy policy).
• Umami — privacy-focused, cookie-free analytics (Umami's privacy policy).
• Railway — hosts our servers.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we'll update the date above. Continued use of the tools after a change means you accept the updated policy.
