This Privacy Policy describes how Machina Coach ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and shares personal data when you use our services, including when you communicate with us via WhatsApp and other messaging channels (collectively, the "Services").

1. Information We Collect

  • Account and Contact Information: Name, email address, phone number, and any profile details you provide.
  • WhatsApp Communications: Content of messages you send to us, message metadata (timestamps, delivery status), your WhatsApp phone number, and any media you choose to share. We collect this data when you contact or interact with us via WhatsApp.
  • Session Information: General information related to your coaching sessions and interactions (for example, timing, communications, and high-level context). Where available, we may also process transcriptions or brief summaries associated with a session.
  • Usage Data: Interactions with our website and Services (e.g., page views, clicks), device information, browser type, IP address, and cookies or similar technologies.
  • Payment/Subscription Data: Limited billing details processed by our payment processor. We do not store full payment card numbers.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To respond to your messages (including via WhatsApp) and provide customer support.
  • To personalize your experience and deliver relevant content.
  • To monitor usage, troubleshoot, and maintain security of the Services.
  • To develop, train, and enhance features and models that power the Services (including AI capabilities). Where feasible, we use de-identified or aggregated information for these purposes.
  • To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

3. Legal Bases for Processing

If you are in the EEA/UK, we process your data under the following bases:

  • Contractual necessity (to deliver the Services you request).
  • Legitimate interests (e.g., improving Services, ensuring security).
  • Consent (e.g., for certain communications or analytics where required). You can withdraw consent at any time.
  • Legal obligation (where we must comply with applicable laws).

4. Sharing of Information

  • Service Providers: We use trusted vendors to help operate our Services (e.g., hosting, analytics, communications, payment processing). They are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations.
  • WhatsApp: When you message us via WhatsApp, your communications are processed by WhatsApp in accordance with their terms and policies. Please review WhatsApp’s Legal Info.
  • Legal and Safety: We may disclose information to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, or protect rights, property, or safety of users and the public.
  • Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as permitted by law.
  • No Sale of Personal Information: We do not sell personal information.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to provide the Services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary by data type and context (e.g., customer support logs vs. billing records).

6. Security

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

  • WhatsApp communications may contribute, where feasible in de-identified or aggregated form, to improving and training features and models that power the Services.
  • WhatsApp may collect additional information independently of us. Review WhatsApp’s terms and privacy policy for details.
