Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

IdeaGen is provided by an independent developer based in Bulgaria ("IdeaGen", "we", "us", or "our"). For purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we act as the data controller for personal data processed through the app, except where a third-party provider acts as an independent controller under its own terms.

Privacy questions and data-rights requests can be sent to [email protected].

2. Information You Provide

IdeaGen processes information that you choose to provide when using its features. Depending on how you use the app, this may include:

• the description of your idea and the category you select for it;
• answers to context questions, such as who the idea is for, what you already know, and what you want to find out;
• questions and messages you send in chats with the AI experts;
• content you enter into free-text fields;
• generated idea briefs, expert perspectives, chat replies, and action plans that are kept in your history; and
• information you send when contacting support.

Please avoid including information that is not necessary for the analysis. In particular, do not include sensitive personal information about yourself or others in an idea description, a context answer, or a chat unless it is genuinely relevant and you want it to be processed for the requested feature.

3. How We Use Information

We use information only as reasonably necessary to operate and improve the core functionality of IdeaGen, including to:

• generate a structured brief of your idea;
• produce reviews from several AI expert perspectives, such as user research, market research, product management, business strategy, and critical risk assessment;
• answer your follow-up questions in chats;
• generate practical action plans and suggested next steps;
• display and maintain previous ideas, analyses, and chats;
• respond to support, privacy, or technical requests;
• protect the app and services against abuse, fraud, and security incidents; and
• comply with applicable legal obligations.

4. AI Processing and OpenAI

IdeaGen uses OpenAI's API to generate AI-powered analyses, chat replies, and recommendations. When you request an AI feature, the information needed for that request may be transmitted to OpenAI for processing. This can include your idea description, context answers, chat messages, previously generated content related to the same idea, and instructions derived from your request.

OpenAI acts as a service provider for this processing. According to OpenAI's current business-data commitments, inputs and outputs submitted through the API are not used to train or improve OpenAI models by default.

We do not authorize OpenAI to use your information for advertising on our behalf. OpenAI may process information using its infrastructure and subprocessors in different countries. Where required, international transfers are handled using legally recognized safeguards.

You can review OpenAI's relevant privacy and business-data information at openai.com/business-data and openai.com/policies.

5. Sharing of Information

We do not sell personal data. We do not share personal data with data brokers or use it for cross-app advertising.

We may disclose information only when reasonably necessary to:

• Service providers: providers that help deliver the app's functionality, such as OpenAI for AI processing and infrastructure providers used to operate the service;
• Apple: where Apple processes information in connection with App Store distribution, purchases, device-level services, or platform security under Apple's own terms;
• Legal and safety purposes: when disclosure is required by law or reasonably necessary to protect users, our rights, security, or the integrity of the service; or
• Business continuity: if the service or relevant assets are transferred, subject to applicable privacy law and continued protection of personal data.

6. Legal Bases for Processing

Where the GDPR applies, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases:

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn. If AI processing is essential to a feature, withdrawing consent may prevent that feature from working.

7. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy. Information used to provide saved ideas, analyses, and chat history may be retained while that functionality is being provided to you. Support correspondence may be retained as needed to resolve requests, maintain records, prevent abuse, or meet legal obligations.

You may request deletion of personal data associated with your use of IdeaGen by contacting [email protected]. Some information may be retained for a limited period where required by law, needed to resolve disputes, prevent fraud, or enforce legal rights.

8. International Data Transfers

Some service providers may process data outside Bulgaria or the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Where the GDPR requires safeguards for such transfers, we use or rely on appropriate legal mechanisms made available by the relevant provider, such as adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• request access to personal data we hold about you;
• request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
• request deletion of your personal data;
• request restriction of processing;
• object to certain processing based on legitimate interests;
• receive certain data in a portable format;
• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
• lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection authority.

To exercise a right, email [email protected]. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.

11. Automated Recommendations

IdeaGen uses AI to provide informational reviews, answers, and recommendations about ideas, products, and plans. These outputs are generated automatically from the information you provide. They are not professional business, legal, financial, or medical advice, and they do not guarantee any outcome. You should review AI-generated content and use your own judgment before acting on it.

IdeaGen does not use automated decision-making that produces legal effects or similarly significant effects about you.

12. Children's Privacy

IdeaGen is not directed to children. We do not knowingly seek to collect personal data from children who are not legally able to consent to the relevant processing. If you believe a child has provided personal data inappropriately, contact us so we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.

13. Third-Party Links and Services

The app may contain links to third-party websites or services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We encourage you to review those policies before providing personal information directly to a third party.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the app, our service providers, or applicable law. The current version will be published at getinsightwithai.com with an updated effective date. If a change materially affects how we process personal data, we will provide additional notice where required by law.
