Privacy policy

This policy explains what personal data Sinapti processes, why, on what legal basis, who it is shared with, how long it is kept and what rights you have. It is governed by Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018 on Personal Data Protection (LOPDGDD).

Summary

Who processes your data

The controller is Fernando Moro Hernández, sole trader (self-employed), tax ID (NIF) 02299659G, of Calle Aguacate 41, Portal B4, Planta 3, Local 8, 28054 Madrid (Spain). You can email privacy [at] sinapti [dot] com or call +34 91 777 36 33.

We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer: none of the cases in which article 37 GDPR and article 34 LOPDGDD require one applies.

What data we process

For semantic search, our servers compute a numeric representation (vector) of the title and text of each item. Its own section below explains how.

Why we use them and on what legal basis

Sending you the newsletter if you subscribeConsent (6.1.a)

News and newsletter. Today we send neither. When we do, we may write to customers about Sinapti news without asking first, as the law allows, but you will be able to refuse when you subscribe and in every email, through a link. Only people who expressly sign up will get the newsletter. We stop writing when you stop being a customer or unsubscribe.

Where the basis is consent, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting what was done before. Where it is legitimate interest, you can object.

What other people can see

Sinapti is personal: nobody sees your content unless you share it.

Who else receives data

We rely on these providers, under a data processing agreement and only for the stated purpose:

Analytics is processed by our own system hosted on our server, not by a third party. The technical reference page of our API only loads resources from jsDelivr and Scalar (United States) if you press the button that says so; if you use its test requests there, they may go through Scalar's servers.

We do not sell your data or hand it to anyone for commercial purposes. We would only disclose it to an authority that lawfully requires it.

Transfers outside the European Economic Area

Resend, Google and Stripe may process data in the United States. Those transfers rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (adequacy decision of the European Commission of 10 July 2023) and, in addition, on the standard contractual clauses approved by the Commission. OVH's remote access from Canada and the United Kingdom relies on the adequacy decisions for those countries.

How long we keep them

DataPeriod
Account and contentWhile you have an account. When you delete it, they are erased straight away
Account after the subscription ends or a payment fails90 calendar days so you can reactivate it or ask for a copy; then it is deleted
BackupsAbout 30 days
Security log (email, IP and browser)90 days
Server technical logs and analytics15 days, and up to 30 more days in the backups
Acceptance of the Terms (version, date and IP)While you have an account
NotificationsRead ones, 90 days after being read; unread ones, while the account exists
Your cookie choice13 months
Billing data, once payments exist6 years, as commercial and tax law requires
Communications about rights and complaintsUntil any resulting liabilities are time-barred

When data must only be kept to deal with possible liabilities, we block it: nobody uses it and it would only be handed to a judge or an authority.

What happens when you delete your account

You can delete your account in Settings → Account. If you only sign in with Google and have no password, ask us at privacy [at] sinapti [dot] com or first set a password in Settings.

When you delete it, your account and all your content are erased straight away and for good. The files you uploaded are then deleted by an automatic process.

What remains for a while:

If you connected Google Calendar, we then also revoke the permission you granted Sinapti and stop receiving notifications from your calendars. If that same Google account is still connected to another Sinapti account, the permission is not revoked: Google shares it between the two, and revoking it would stop the other account's sync. You can withdraw it yourself at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions.

Your rights

You can ask us at any time for:

Email privacy [at] sinapti [dot] com saying which right you want to exercise. If it is not clear that the request comes from you, we will ask you to prove it. We reply within one month; if the request is complex we may extend that by two more months, telling you within the first.

If you believe we have not handled your data properly, you can complain to the Spanish Data Protection Agency (www.aepd.es).

How we protect your data

Google

If you sign in with Google or connect Google Calendar, Google Ireland Limited processes your data as an independent controller, under its own privacy policy.

Sinapti's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Specifically:

Semantic search

So that search can find items by their meaning and not only by their exact words, our servers compute a vector from the title and text of each item. The model runs on our own infrastructure: your content is never sent to any outside artificial intelligence service.

A vector could allow part of the original text to be rebuilt, so we protect it just like your content. It is never shown to anyone and never leaves through our API.

You can delete your vectors in Settings → Advanced. Keyword search keeps working, but while you have content the vectors are computed again whenever you create or edit something and in the nightly run.

We do not use your content to train any model.

Minors, automated decisions and changes

Sinapti is only for people aged 18 or over, who confirm it when they sign up. If we learn that an account belongs to a minor, we delete it.

We make no automated decisions that produce legal effects on you or affect you in a similarly significant way.

We may change this policy when the service or the law changes. The version and date are shown above. If a change is significant, we will tell you before it applies.
