Privacy Policy

Last updated — [DATE]

This Privacy Policy describes how Somae ([COMPANY LEGAL NAME], “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you interact with the Somae website and product. We’ve written it in plain, simple language — because a document about your information should be easy to understand.

01Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how you interact with Somae. The categories below describe what the product collects today; anything still being finalized is clearly marked rather than assumed.

  • Account information. When you create a Somae account (for example, by signing in with Google), we receive your name, email address, and profile image from the sign-in provider.
  • Contact information. The email address associated with your account, used to communicate with you about Somae.
  • Prompts and text you submit. When you use Somae’s creative features, we process the text prompts and instructions you provide in order to generate content for you.
  • Images and brand assets you upload. Such as product images, logos, and reference images you choose to provide. See section 04 for details.
  • Generated content. The visuals and other content Somae creates in response to your requests.
  • Payment information. When you purchase a Somae plan, payment details are processed by our payment provider, Razorpay. Somae does not store your full card details.
  • Device and browser information. Such as browser type, device type, and similar technical data. [TO BE CONFIRMED]
  • Website usage information. How you interact with our website. [TO BE CONFIRMED]
  • Cookies and similar technologies. See section 05 for the current status.

02How We Use Your Information

Where applicable, we use the information we collect to:

  • Provide and operate Somae, including processing your creative requests.
  • Generate visual and written content based on the prompts and assets you provide.
  • Maintain, improve, and develop the service.
  • Communicate with you — for example, onboarding, product updates, and license-related emails.
  • Process payments and manage your subscription or license.
  • Prevent abuse, fraud, or unauthorized activity.
  • Understand how the product is used so we can make it better. [TO BE CONFIRMED — product analytics are not yet implemented]

03AI and Third-Party Services

Somae uses artificial intelligence to generate content. To do this, certain inputs — such as your text prompts and any images you upload — are processed by third-party AI providers acting on our behalf. Depending on the features you use, these may include:

  • Google (Gemini / Imagen models)
  • OpenAI
  • Anthropic (Claude)
  • Groq

What may be shared: your prompts, uploaded reference images, and related creative inputs — only as needed to fulfil your request. How those providers handle data sent to them is governed by their own privacy policies. [TO BE CONFIRMED — link provider policies here]

Other processors: we also rely on Razorpay for payment processing and Google for sign-in authentication.

04Uploaded Content

You may choose to provide content to Somae, such as:

  • Product images
  • Logos and brand assets
  • Reference images
  • Creative prompts and text

How long uploaded content is stored, whether it is used to train or improve AI models, and how deletion requests are handled: [TO BE CONFIRMED]. We will update this section with definitive answers rather than guess.

Ownership of the content you upload: [TO BE CONFIRMED] — final ownership terms will be set out in our Terms of Service.

05Cookies and Analytics

Somae uses a small number of essential cookies to keep you signed in and keep the service secure (for example, authentication session cookies set by our sign-in system). These are required for the product to function and are not used for advertising.

Analytics and tracking: no third-party analytics or advertising trackers are implemented on this website at the time of writing. If that changes, this section will list exactly what is used: [LIST ACTUAL ANALYTICS / COOKIE SERVICES HERE]

06Data Retention

We retain information for as long as necessary to provide our services and for legitimate business or legal purposes, subject to the specific retention practices applicable to each type of information.

Specific retention periods per data type: [RETENTION PERIOD] [TO BE CONFIRMED]

07Data Security

We take the security of your information seriously and use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect it — including encrypted connections (HTTPS) and keeping payment details with our payment provider rather than on our own systems. Implementation-specific details: [TO BE CONFIRMED]

That said, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

08Your Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, which may include:

  • Access — request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
  • Correction — ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
  • Deletion — ask us to delete your personal information.
  • Withdrawal of consent — where processing is based on consent, withdraw it at any time.
  • Data portability — receive your information in a portable format.
  • Objection or restriction — object to, or request restriction of, certain processing where applicable.

To exercise any applicable right, contact us at [PRIVACY EMAIL ADDRESS]. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.

09Children’s Privacy

Somae is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Minimum age requirement: [TO BE CONFIRMED]

If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [PRIVACY EMAIL ADDRESS] and we will take appropriate steps to remove it.
