Privacy Policy
Effective Date: April 11, 2025
1. Information We Do Not Collect
- We do not collect your name, email address, or any other personal identifiers.
- We do not use cookies or third-party trackers.
- We do not require you to create an account or log in.
2. What We Do Collect
- A randomly generated, anonymous user ID.
- The queries you enter on Ideakyn.
These data are stored without any link to your identity.
3. How We Use the Data
- To generate semantic networks based on your inputs.
- To improve and refine Ideakyn’s functionality.
We never use this data for advertising, profiling, or other unrelated purposes.
4. Legal Basis for Processing Your Data
We process data based on your consent (for users entering queries) and legitimate interest (for improving our service and performance).
5. Data Retention
Query data may be stored temporarily or permanently to enhance performance, support research, and detect misuse.
We periodically clean up unused or old data.
Users have the right to request deletion of their data at any time (see "Data Deletion" below).
6. Data Deletion
You can request the deletion of your data associated with your UID (including queries and related data) at any time by clicking the button below. This will remove all eligible data stored on our servers.
How It Works:
When you click the "Delete My Data" button:
- We delete all session data associated with your UID.
- We also delete your semantic networks if they have not been shared.
- If a semantic network has been shared, it will be retained so others can continue to access it.
Any unused data older than 30 days is automatically deleted. Since your UID is not personally identifiable, you do not need to be logged in to request deletion. Just click the button, and we will delete your data.
If you do not have access to your UID, you can still request data deletion by contacting us directly (see "Contact Us").
7. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your data with third parties.
8. Third-Party Services
Ideakyn does not currently integrate with third-party services that collect user data.
If this changes in the future, we will update this policy and ensure GDPR compliance with any third parties.
9. Your Rights Under GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
You have the right to:
- Request the deletion of all data related to your interaction with Ideakyn, including any queries you’ve entered and any associated anonymous user ID.
- Object to processing or restrict how we process your data.
- Request data portability (though this may not apply as the data is anonymized).
Since we do not associate your queries with personally identifiable information, we cannot link requests to specific user IDs. If you wish to request deletion, please provide as much information about the time, date, or session of your use of Ideakyn as possible, and we will delete all associated data.
To exercise these rights, please contact us through the contact page.
10. Your Rights Under CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act)
If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the CCPA:
- Right to Know: We collect only your anonymous user ID and the queries you enter. We do not collect your name, email, IP address, or any other identifiable data.
- Right to Delete: You may delete your data at any time by clicking the "Delete My Data" button above or contacting us.
- Right to Opt Out of Sale: We do not sell your data.
- Right to Non-Discrimination: Exercising your privacy rights will not result in different prices, service quality, or access.
No login is required to exercise these rights. Simply use the deletion button above or visit our Contact Page.
11. Data Protection
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction.
