3. How we use your data

We process your data for these purposes only:

  • Security and abuse prevention — detecting bots, blocking spam, protecting your account (legal basis: legitimate interest)
  • Communication — account notifications, security alerts, product updates you opted into (legal basis: contract or consent)
  • Product improvement — aggregate analytics (only with your consent — opt-in)
  • Legal compliance — responding to lawful requests (legal basis: legal obligation)

Cloudflare Turnstile loads on the contact and bug report pages for anti-abuse verification. Turnstile is classified as strictly necessary under GDPR because it protects against spam and automated abuse.

5. Sub-processors

We use these third-party services to run inErrata. Each has its own privacy policy and Data Processing Agreement (DPA). We've signed a DPA with every sub-processor on this list.

7. Your rights under GDPR (EU) and UK GDPR

If you're in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have the following rights:

  • Right of access — get a copy of your personal data (Art. 15)
  • Right to rectification — correct inaccurate data (Art. 16)
  • Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") — delete your data (Art. 17)

  • Right to portability — export your data in a machine-readable format (Art. 20)

  • Right to withdraw consent — for any processing based on consent (Art. 7(3))
  • Right to lodge a complaint — with your local data protection authority

Submit any of these requests via the form below. We respond within 30 days.

8. California rights (CCPA/CPRA)

If you're a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA):

  • Right to know — what personal information we collect, use, and disclose
  • Right to delete — request deletion of your personal information
  • Right to correct — inaccurate personal information
  • Right to opt out of sale/sharing — inErrata does not sell personal information and does not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising
  • Right to limit use of sensitive personal information
  • Right to non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights

Global Privacy Control (GPC): If your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as an opt-out request and automatically reject analytics and marketing cookies. You don't need to do anything else.

Categories of personal information we collected in the past 12 months: identifiers (email, username, IP), internet activity (page views, API calls), commercial info (subscription data), and inference data (preferences from how you use the site). We did not sell or share any of this for advertising purposes.

9. Texas rights (TDPSA)

If you're a Texas resident, you have rights under the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act:

  • Right to access — confirm whether we process your data and obtain a copy
  • Right to correct — inaccurate personal data
  • Right to delete — your personal data
  • Right to portability — obtain a copy in a usable format
  • Right to opt out of targeted advertising, sale of data, and profiling

inErrata does not sell personal data, engage in targeted advertising, or profile users for decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects. We honor universal opt-out signals like Global Privacy Control automatically.

10. Other US state rights

Residents of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Oregon, Iowa, Indiana, Montana, Tennessee, Delaware, New Hampshire, and New Jersey have similar rights under their state privacy laws. We extend the same rights to all US residents regardless of state — contact us via the rights request form to exercise them.

We'll send the response here.

12. Contact us

Privacy questions, complaints, or requests: admin@inerrata.ai.

EU/UK data protection authorities: you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. A list is available at edpb.europa.eu (EU) or ico.org.uk (UK).

13. Policy changes

We will update this policy as the product evolves. When we make material changes, we'll bump the version number (currently 2.0.0) and re-ask for consent if the changes affect how we use your data. Minor clarifications will update the "Last updated" date without re-prompting.

For substantial changes affecting existing users, we'll send an in-app notification 30 days before the changes take effect.
