Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This policy explains what personal data Remembrall collects when you use the web app and the browser extension, why we use it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and the rights you have.
1.Who is responsible for your data
[COMPANY NAME] AB (Remembrall), organisation number [ORG NUMBER], [STREET ADDRESS], [POSTCODE] [CITY], Sweden, is the controller of the personal data described in this policy. This means we decide why and how it is used.
Contact us about privacy at [SUPPORT EMAIL]. Our full details are on the company information page.
2.What data we collect
Account data
Your name, email address and profile picture (from signing in with Clerk), your time zone, your plan, and your progress through getting started.
Content you add
What you capture and create: web pages, selected text, social posts and videos captured with the extension, with their address (URL), title, site icon and thumbnail; notes you write and files you upload; any instructions you give for how content should be summarised or turned into cards; and what we generate from your content, namely summaries, study cards and the data we use to find related captures.
Study data
Your study sessions and answers: which cards you studied and when, how long you spent, whether you answered correctly, the text of your open-ended answers with the AI’s score and feedback, your review schedule and snoozes, and the points (XP) you earn.
Billing data
Your payment details are collected and held by Stripe and Link, not by us, and we never see your full card number. We keep what we need to run your subscription: your plan, the status of your subscription, and a customer reference from Stripe.
Usage and technical data
How much of your plan’s allowance you use (daily credits and AI usage), and technical logs created when you use the service, such as IP address, browser and device information, and error reports.
Data from the browser extension
When you capture something with the extension, it sends us the content you chose to capture, with the page’s address, title and icon. The extension also keeps your sign-in token and a short history of your recent captures in your browser’s local storage.
Other people’s data in your captures
3.Why we use your data, and our legal bases
| Purpose | Data | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|---|
| Providing the service: storing and organising your captures, generating summaries and study cards, scheduling reviews and running study sessions | Account, content, study and extension data | Contract (art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Running your subscription and applying your plan’s limits | Account, billing and usage data | Contract (art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Keeping billing records for bookkeeping and tax | Billing data | Legal obligation (art. 6(1)(c)) |
| Keeping the service secure, preventing abuse and fixing errors | Usage and technical data | Legitimate interest (art. 6(1)(f)) |
| Anything we ask your permission for: [To be drafted/approved by counsel: which processing, if any, is based on consent] | Depends on what you agree to | Consent (art. 6(1)(a)), which you can withdraw at any time |
4.AI processing
To provide the AI features, we send content to Google’s Gemini API:
- the content you capture, to write summaries and generate study cards;
- the question and your answer, to grade open-ended answers and give feedback; and
- your captures, to create numerical representations (embeddings) that let us find related captures.
Google processes this content on our behalf and returns the result to us. The AI does not make decisions about you with legal or similarly significant effects: what it produces is study material and feedback for you.
5.Who we share data with
We use the service providers below. Unless stated otherwise, they process personal data on our behalf, as processors.
| Provider | What they do | Data involved |
|---|---|---|
| Clerk | Sign-in and authentication | Account data, sign-in and session data |
| Stripe / Link | Payments. A processor for payment processing, and an independent controller for its own fraud prevention and legal compliance. | Billing data |
| Google (Gemini API) | AI processing of content you capture | Content you add, open-ended answers |
| Vercel | Hosting of the web app | Data passing through the web app, technical data |
| Railway | Hosting of our API and database | All data we store |
| Redis | Background-job queue and rate limiting | [To be drafted/approved by counsel: confirm Redis is hosted on Railway, and what personal data (if any) it holds] |
6.International transfers
Some of our providers are based in, or process data in, the United States. For those transfers we rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, where the provider is certified under it, and on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).
7.How long we keep data
| Data | How long we keep it |
|---|---|
| Account data, content you add, study data | Until you delete it, or until you delete your account |
| Billing records | 7 years, as the Swedish Bookkeeping Act (bokföringslagen) requires; 10 years where the EU One-Stop-Shop (OSS) VAT rules apply |
| Usage and technical logs | A short period: [To be drafted/approved by counsel: exact retention periods for each kind of log] |
| Data held by Stripe and Link | Under their own retention policies |
8.Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
- access your personal data and get a copy of it;
- rectification: have inaccurate data corrected;
- erasure: have your data deleted;
- portability: receive the data you gave us in a structured, machine-readable format, or have it sent to another service;
- object to processing based on our legitimate interests;
- restriction: ask us to limit how we use your data in some situations; and
- withdraw any consent you have given, at any time.
Some of these rights have exceptions. For example, we must keep billing records for as long as the law requires, even if you ask us to delete them.
How to use your rights
Email us at [SUPPORT EMAIL]. We may need to confirm your identity first. We reply within one month; if a request is complex we may extend this by up to two more months, and we will tell you why.
Complaints
If you think we handle your data wrongly, you can complain to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten, IMY), www.imy.se. You can also complain to the data protection authority in the country where you live or work. We would like the chance to put things right first, so please contact us too.
9.Children
If you live in Sweden, you must be at least 13 years old to use the free service. Other countries may set a different minimum age.
To buy a paid plan you must be 18 or older, or have permission from a parent or guardian.
If you believe a child has given us personal data without the permission they needed, contact us at [SUPPORT EMAIL].
10.Cookies and local storage
We use a small number of cookies and similar technologies:
- cookies set by Clerk that keep you signed in to the web app;
- your theme choice (light or dark), stored in your browser’s local storage; and
- in the browser extension, your sign-in token and recent capture history, stored in the extension’s local storage.
11.Security
Data travels between your browser, the extension and our servers over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Every request to our API is checked against your signed-in account, and your data is returned only to you.
12.Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The date at the top shows when it last changed. If a change significantly affects you, we will tell you.
