Privacy Policy

Thank you for using FunctionalAI. This Privacy Policy explains how FunctionalAI ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information when you use our website and services ("Service"). It also describes your rights and choices regarding your personal data. We are committed to protecting your privacy and complying with applicable data protection laws, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and other relevant regulations.

By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our practices, please do not use the Service.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect several types of information from and about users of our Service, including:

Information You Provide Directly

When you sign up for FunctionalAI or use our Service, you may provide personal information such as your name, email address, company name, and account login credentials. You may also provide content when using the Service's features – for example, by entering chat conversations, uploading files or documents, or providing prompts to the AI. All data that you input into the Service (including any text, files, or other materials) is collected and stored to enable the Service's functionality.

Information from Connected Accounts

If you choose to integrate or connect third-party accounts with FunctionalAI, we will access certain information from those accounts with your permission. For example:

• If you connect an email account (such as Gmail), we may access your emails, email headers, attachments, and related data in order to read incoming messages or draft/send responses on your behalf.
• If you connect a social media or messaging account (such as Instagram, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, LINE, etc.), we may retrieve messages, comments, or other relevant content from that platform to process them through our AI and generate replies or analyses.

Payment and Transaction Information

If you make a purchase or subscribe to a paid plan, our third-party payment processors (like Lemon Squeezy or Stripe) will collect your payment details. FunctionalAI itself does not store full payment card details. We may retain records of transactions and subscriptions for accounting, subscription management, and legal compliance purposes.

Automatically Collected Information

When you use our website or app, we may collect certain information automatically via cookies, log files, and similar tracking technologies. This can include your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, and links clicked.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To Provide and Operate the Service: We process your registration information to create and maintain your account, and we use your input data to generate AI responses and perform the functions you request.
• To Integrate with Third-Party Services: If you connect external accounts (email, social media, etc.), we use the data from those accounts as instructed by you to facilitate the integration.
• To Communicate with You: We may use your contact information to send service-related communications, including confirmations, updates, and customer support responses.
• For Customer Support and Account Management: If you reach out to us with questions or issues, we use your information to respond and help resolve them.

3. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we process your personal data based on the following legal grounds:

• Contract Performance: Processing necessary to provide the Service you have requested, including account creation, AI chatbot functionality, and customer support.
• Legitimate Interests: Processing for our legitimate business interests, such as improving our Service, preventing fraud, ensuring security, and conducting analytics. We balance these interests against your rights and freedoms.
