1. Introduction

Welcome to ARIPSY ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience when using our AI-powered study notes platform.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website and services at aripsy.com (the "Service"). Please read this policy carefully. By using our Service, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

When using our study tool, you may input:

  • Text content for note generation
  • Uploaded documents (PDF files)

4. AI Processing and Third-Party Services

Our Service uses artificial intelligence to process your educational content. We want you to understand:

  • AI Providers: We use third-party AI services (including language models) to generate study notes. Your content is sent to these providers only as needed to provide the service.
  • Data Handling: AI providers process submitted content under their applicable API terms and privacy commitments. Avoid submitting sensitive personal information that is not needed for studying.
  • Model Training: Aripsy does not train its own AI models on your personal study content or intentionally submit that content for model training. Provider-side handling depends on the API service and contract in use.

The main service providers used to operate Aripsy are:
