Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

ContractScan is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our AI-powered contract analysis application.

1. Information We Collect

ContractScan was designed with privacy as a priority. We collect the minimum amount of information necessary:

• Contract text/images: When you scan or import a contract, the text is sent to OpenAI's API for analysis. We do not store contract text or images on our servers. The data is transmitted directly to OpenAI for processing and is not retained by us.
• Analysis results: The results of contract analysis (identified clauses, risk ratings, legal references) are stored locally on your device using SwiftData.
• API key: If you provide your own OpenAI API key, it is stored locally on your device only and is never sent to our servers.
• Purchase data: Processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not have access to your payment information.

2. How We Use Your Information

The information collected is used exclusively to:

• Analyze contract text using AI to identify risky or abusive clauses
• Provide severity ratings and legal references for identified clauses
• Maintain your analysis history locally on your device
• Process in-app purchases and subscriptions

3. Data Storage

All your data (analysis history, preferences, API key) is stored locally on your device using Apple's secure technologies (SwiftData and Keychain). We do not maintain servers with users' personal data.

Contract text and images are processed in real-time and discarded immediately after processing. No images or text are retained in our systems.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties, except:

• Contract processing: Contract text is sent to OpenAI's API for AI-powered analysis. Please review OpenAI's Privacy Policy for information on how they handle data.
• Payments: Apple manages subscription transactions through the App Store.
• When required by law or court order.

5. Third-Party Services

The application uses the following third-party services:

• OpenAI API (GPT-4o): To analyze contract text and identify risky clauses. Contract text is sent to OpenAI for processing. OpenAI's data usage policies apply to this data.
• Apple StoreKit: To process in-app purchases and subscriptions.

6. Security

We adopt technical measures to protect your information:

• Encrypted transmission via HTTPS/TLS
• Local storage protected by the iOS system
• API key securely stored in the device's Keychain
• No sensitive data transmitted without encryption

7. No Personal Data Collection

ContractScan does not collect personal data such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, or location data. We do not require account creation or login. The app functions entirely without collecting personally identifiable information.

8. User Rights

The user may, at any time:

• Access locally stored analysis history
• Delete individual analyses within the app
• Permanently delete all data in settings
• Remove all data by uninstalling the application
• Request information about what data we process

9. International Data Transfer

Contract texts are sent to OpenAI servers, which may be located outside your country of residence. By using the application, you consent to this transfer. OpenAI adopts data protection measures in accordance with their privacy policies.

10. Children

ContractScan is not directed at children under 13 years of age and does not intentionally collect information from children.

11. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated periodically. Significant changes will be communicated through the application.
