Privacy Policy

AI legal documentation SaaS for Indian lawyers — pay per report.

Last updated: June 2026

Overview

Our architecture is intentionally designed around an uncompromising Zero-Knowledge Security Model to protect client and matter data privacy. This policy describes how we handle information across our services at law.app.cleannote.org and law-api.cleannote.org.

1. The Zero-Knowledge Privacy Standard

To protect advocate–client confidentiality and eliminate data spill liabilities, Cleannote Legal operates on a strict zero-knowledge model:

• Client-Side Local Decryption: All legal output documents are stored on our servers in a deeply encrypted, unreadable state. Your data can only be decrypted locally on your end using your secure password.
• No Central Access Keys: Because encryption keys are generated from your password locally, Cleannote administrators and infrastructure providers have zero technical ability to view, read, or access your client matter text or generated reports.
• Strict Device Authentication: Accessing your secure profile from any new browser or device requires explicit authentication and your master password to instantiate local decryption routines.

2. Information We Process

• Account Credentials: App signup credentials, email address, securely hashed system credentials, and billing region context. (Your raw account password is cryptographically masked and is entirely invisible to Cleannote administrators).
• Ephemeral Legal Workflow Data: Temporary audio dictation uploads, styling sample documents, and generated reports submitted entirely for immediate pipeline processing.
• Operational Telemetry: Anonymized country-level IP geolocation (via Cloudflare edge routing), session security cookies, and basic operational server logs used exclusively for performance monitoring and active abuse prevention.

3. Core Information Utilization

• Executing localized AI speech-to-text transcription and applying your custom structural formatting profiles.
• Authenticating platform sessions and accurately maintaining prepaid digital wallet or trial usage billing ledgers.
• Transmitting critical administrative or operational system alerts (e.g., automated signup confirmations).
• Ensuring absolute infrastructure integrity and preventing localized runtime loop failures.

4. Robust Data Retention & Auto-Purge

We treat client matter data as temporary data payloads. To shield advocates from systemic data retention liabilities:

• 6-Day Auto-Purge: Uploaded files and finished reports are permanently and automatically deleted from our servers after 6 days. Sample reports, letterhead, and feedback files are retained until you remove them.
• Zero Global AI Model Training: Your legal workflows, audio strings, and data patterns are completely isolated. Your files are never submitted, tracked, or used to train public or foundational machine learning models.
• End-to-end encryption details are managed entirely locally.

5. Third-Party Sharing

Cleannote does not monetize, distribute, lease, or sell client data or user profile metrics. Highly specialized cloud enterprise AI subprocessors are utilized solely as passive pass-through infrastructure to handle core processing loops. Data disclosures are restricted exclusively to mandatory legal compliance or valid statutory judicial orders.

6. Regulatory Compliance & Global Rights

In compliance with rigorous professional confidentiality obligations (including Bar Council of India standards) and localized statutory laws (including India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act / DPDP Act), you maintain unconditional rights to request the immediate manual erasure or correction of your core profile details. Please coordinate data access or custom purging configurations via support@cleannote.org.
