Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 19th, 2024

Your privacy is really important to us when using Amino. You are trusting us with your thoughts and we want to make sure they’re safe, secure, and you know exactly what we do with them. Below is the privacy policy that we (Amino Intelligence, inc.) commit to which outlines what information we collect and how it is used. We reserve the right to update this policy and will post any changes here. If you have any questions, please reach out to us by emailing info@amino.fit.

1. Collection and use of information

When using Amino, we collect information including the following potentially personally identifiable information:

  • Email: This is used as your account login and we may occasionally send emails communicating to you. We will not share this with any third party that's not necessary for the product to function (e.g. it would be shared with our authentication provider). We will not share your information or email to any 3p that is not necessary.
  • Entries and Conversations: when you put down thoughts or talk with the AI coach - that is information that is ultimately stored and used in the product. In terms of security of these entries - we encrypt the entries in storage using a unique key per each user. At any time you can delete all of your entries and related artifacts by reaching out to support or info@amino.fit.
  • AI Artifacts: there are likely artifacts that are generated from your entries and conversations (e.g. summary, questions, themes); we treat artifacts such as summaries the same as your raw entries and conversations and treat with the same encryption method.
  • Phone Number: If you optionally setup text message reminders or other phone functionality, your phone number will be stored. We will not shre your phone number to any 3p that is not neccessary for the product to function.

This information is stored securely on servers that we have hosted with industry standard cloud providers. We do not share your entries with any third party services that are not neccessary for the product to function and will never sell your data.

In addition to this information, we may collect information such as browser metadata and how often you log in, what features you use in the product etc. in order to help us understand high level analytics of how the product is used.

2. Security of information

We commit to using best practices for information security to help prevent unwarranted access or use of your information. However, due to the nature of transmitting information over the internet, there is no way to guarantee that the information is completely secure. In the event that a security issue arises, we will disclose any relevant information via email or our social media channels.

3. Use of third party services

The use of third party services and software libraries is necessary to help power features of Amino including AI providers where raw entries and conversations may be sent in order to power functionality like the talking with AI coaching and deriving AI artifacts. By using Amino - you are effectively agreeing to the privacy policy of our AI providers including OpenAI and Anthropic. We will do our best to remove any identifiable information before sending to our AI providers but because we do not control the content that is input, we cannot fully guarantee that identifiable information is not sent to our AI providers.

4. Deletion of data

If you want to delete your data associated with your account or your account entirely, please email info@amino.fit and we'll be happy to delete all of it from our servers.
