Privacy Policy

Last updated: 7 May 2026 · Version 1.0
Plain-English summary: Your data is yours. We collect what we need to deliver the service, store it securely on Google Cloud (US), never sell it, never train AI models on it, and let you export or delete it anytime. We're aligned with GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA. Sub-processors are listed at parie.io/subprocessors.

5. Where We Store It

Customer data is stored in Google Cloud regions in the United States (us-east1 for Storage, us-central1 for Firestore and Cloud Functions). EU and APAC region options are on the roadmap for Enterprise customers with data-residency requirements. For international transfers from the EU/UK, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

California residents (CCPA): We do not "sell" personal information as defined by CCPA. You have the rights to know, delete, and not be discriminated against for exercising your rights. To submit a request: hello@parie.io.

Full security architecture: parie.io/trust. We will notify affected customers within 72 hours of becoming aware of a personal data breach involving their data.

9. Cookies

PARIE uses only essential cookies required for sign-in sessions and security. We do not use advertising or analytics cookies. No cookie banner is shown because no consent is required for strictly necessary cookies under GDPR/ePrivacy.

10. Children's Data

PARIE is not directed at children under 13 (or 16 in the EU). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it promptly.
