LegalPrivacy Policy

Privacy Policy

We value your trust. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your data.

Overview

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how ManualQ Inc. (ManualQ, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you use our website and AI services (collectively, the “Service”).

We are committed to protecting your data. We primarily collect business contact information and content you explicitly upload to generate quizzes.

Commitment to Privacy

We do not sell your personal data. We process your documents solely to provide the Service to you.

Data types

Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

Account Information

Name, email address, password (hashed), and organization details when you sign up.

Customer Content (Your PDFs)

Documents, manuals, and text you upload to generate quizzes.
Note: Please avoid uploading highly sensitive personal health information (PHI) or illicit content.

Usage Data

Log data, IP addresses, browser type, and interaction data to improve system performance and security.

How AI works

AI Processing & Training

The core feature of ManualQ is using Artificial Intelligence to analyze documents.

  • Processing: Your uploaded content is sent to our AI providers (e.g., OpenAI) solely for the purpose of generating your quizzes.
  • No Training: Unless you explicitly opt-in via a specific enterprise agreement, we do not use your Customer Content to train our foundation AI models for other customers.
  • Data Retention: AI providers may temporarily retain data for abuse monitoring (typically up to 30 days) but do not use it for training.
Purposes

How We Use Your Data

We use your information to:

  • Provide, operate, and maintain the Service.
  • Process transactions and manage billing.
  • Generate AI quizzes and summaries upon your request.
  • Send you technical notices, security alerts, and support messages.
  • Comply with legal obligations.
Third parties

Sharing & Service Providers

We do not sell your data. We share data only with trusted service providers who assist in operating our Service:

  • SupabaseDatabase, authentication, and backend infrastructure.
  • StripePayment processing and subscription billing.
  • OpenAI / AnthropicLLM providers for generating AI quizzes from text.
  • VercelWeb hosting and edge functions.

We may also disclose information if required by law (e.g., to comply with a subpoena) or to protect the rights and safety of ManualQ or others.

Location

Data Storage & Transfer

Your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than the country in which you are resident. Specifically, our primary servers (Supabase) and AI providers are located in the United States. By using the Service, you consent to the transfer of information to countries outside of your country of residence.

Protection

Security

We use industry-standard encryption (TLS/SSL) for data in transit and encryption at rest for sensitive data. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. You are responsible for keeping your password secure.

How long

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide the Service. If you delete your account, we delete your data from our active databases, though some data may remain in backups for a limited period or be retained for legal compliance (e.g., billing records).

Control

Your Rights

Depending on your location (including Canada and the EU), you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate data.
  • Request deletion of your data.
  • Withdraw consent for processing.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at support@manualq.com.

Updates
