Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information the Algo-Rhythm Dynamics app ("ARD", "the app") collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. ARD is operated by CIAG Global LLC ("we", "us"), a Minnesota limited liability company.
Information you give us
- Account information: email address and/or phone number used to sign in, and the screen name and real name you choose.
- Profile information: birthday, gender, height, photos, professional headshots, an optional video introduction, and your answers to profile prompts.
- Professional information: resume details, work history, skills, goals, and other details you add to your professional profile.
- Messages and practice sessions: conversations with other users, and your practice conversations with AI partners and coaches.
- Feedback and support requests you send us.
Information collected automatically
- Location: with your permission, your device location while you use the app, to show nearby professional connections and suggest meeting venues. You can turn this off at any time in your device settings.
- Camera and microphone: used only when you take a photo, record a video, or scan a QR code. We do not access them in the background.
- Device and usage data: device type, operating system, app version, push notification tokens, in-app activity, and crash reports.
- Purchases: records of in-app purchases and subscriptions. Payments are handled by Apple; we never receive your payment card details.
How we use your information
- To create and run your account and profile.
- To provide communication training, including AI coaching, conversation scoring, and feedback on your profile and photos.
- To show your professional profile to other users and enable connections and messaging.
- To process purchases and deliver tokens and subscriptions.
- To send notifications you have allowed.
- To keep the app secure, prevent fraud and abuse, and enforce our terms.
- To understand how the app is used and to fix bugs and improve features.
AI processing
To generate coaching, practice conversations, and feedback, the relevant text and images you submit are sent to our AI provider, OpenAI, for processing. They are used to generate a response to you and are handled under OpenAI's API data policies. We do not sell this content.
Who can see your information
Information you place on your professional profile (such as your name, headshot, and professional details) is visible to other ARD users. Messages are visible to the people you send them to. Other profile information is used to personalize your experience and is not shown publicly.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only:
- With service providers that run the app for us: Google Firebase (hosting, authentication, database, file storage, analytics, crash reporting, and notifications), OpenAI (AI processing), and Apple (purchases).
- When required by law, or to protect the safety, rights, or property of our users, the public, or us.
- In a business transfer, such as a merger or acquisition, subject to this policy.
Storage and security
Your information is stored on Google Cloud servers, which may be located in the United States. We use industry-standard safeguards, including encryption in transit and access controls, but no system is completely secure.
Retention and deletion
We keep your information while your account is active. You can permanently delete your account and associated profile data at any time from within the app (Studio: Dressing Room → Delete Profile; Office: Executive Suite → Resignation). You can also email us to request deletion. We may keep limited records where required by law or to resolve disputes.
Your choices and rights
- Edit your profile information in the app at any time.
- Turn off location, camera, photo, microphone, or notification access in your device settings.
- Request a copy of your information, correction, or deletion by contacting us.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under local law. We will respond to verified requests as required.
Age requirement
ARD is intended for adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. If we make material changes, we will notify you in the app or by other means before they take effect. The effective date above shows when it was last updated.
