1. Who we are

Pairs is the trade name of Paires Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation. In this policy, Pairs ("Pairs", "we", "us", "our") is the operator of the website and services described in this policy.

We operate the website at pairs.ai (the "Site") and a private software workspace that we make available by invitation to selected users (the "Workspace"). The Site and the Workspace together are referred to as the "Service". Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, the data controller is Paires Technologies Inc.

For the purposes of the EU and UK General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), Pairs is the controller of personal information described in this policy unless we expressly say otherwise.

2. Scope

This policy applies to:

  • Visitors to the Site;
  • People who submit an access request through the Site;
  • Users who are granted access to the Workspace;
  • People who correspond with us by email or other channels.

It does not apply to third-party websites or services we link to. When you leave the Site, this policy stops applying and the receiving site's own policy takes over.

3. Information we collect

3.1 Information you give us

When you submit an access request or otherwise contact us, we receive:

  • Your name and role;
  • Your company name and website;
  • Your email address;
  • Stage information about your company (for example, Pre-Seed, Seed, Series A);
  • Any free-text context you choose to add;
  • Anything else you write to us in correspondence.

3.2 Information you submit to the Workspace

If you are granted access to the Workspace and use it, we receive the information you put into it, including:

  • Company profile information you complete during onboarding;
  • Materials you upload, such as pitch decks and supporting documents;
  • Narrative and positioning text you write in the Workspace;
  • Messages exchanged with the AI assistant inside the Workspace;
  • Calendar and scheduling availability you choose to share;
  • Configuration and preference settings.

You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to submit any information you put into the Workspace, including information about third parties such as co-founders or team members.

3.3 Information we collect automatically

When you access the Service, we and our service providers automatically receive technical information including:

  • IP address and approximate geographic location derived from it;
  • Browser type, operating system, device characteristics;
  • Pages viewed, links clicked, timestamps, referring URL;
  • Logs of authentication events and API calls;
  • Crash reports and diagnostic data, where applicable.

3.4 Information from third parties

We may also receive information about you from third parties when you choose to connect a third-party account (such as a LinkedIn or calendar integration), or when professional or public sources confirm information you have given us. We will only ever use such information for the purposes set out in this policy.

4. How we use information

We use information for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your access request and decide whether to invite you to the Workspace.
  • To operate the Service, including authenticating you, hosting your content, and delivering the features of the Workspace.
  • To provide the AI features of the Workspace, including preparing summaries, drafting suggestions, and contextual recommendations. See section 5.
  • To communicate with you about your account, the Service, security issues, and policy changes.
  • To improve the Service, including diagnosing problems, measuring usage, and developing new features. We use aggregated and de-identified information for this purpose wherever possible.
  • To protect the Service, including detecting and preventing fraud, abuse, and security incidents.
  • To comply with the law, including responding to lawful requests, enforcing our agreements, and exercising or defending legal claims.
  • For business purposes reasonably related to the above, such as record-keeping, finance, and corporate transactions.

Where required by law, we rely on one of the following legal bases:

  • Performance of a contract with you (operating the Service and replying to your requests);
  • Our legitimate interests (improving the Service, protecting against fraud and abuse, communicating with you about the Service), balanced against your rights;
  • Compliance with a legal obligation;
  • Your consent, where we have asked for it.

5. AI processing and training

We do not train AI models on your content. The information you submit to the Workspace is not used to train general-purpose foundation models, our own models, or any third party's models, unless you give us your explicit consent.

The Workspace uses third-party AI providers (such as Anthropic and OpenAI) to process content you submit. When we send your content to one of these providers to generate a response, the request is governed by the provider's enterprise or API agreement with us, which contractually restricts how that provider may use your data. Specifically, the providers we use do not train their models on API content under those agreements.

AI outputs are generated by statistical models. They can be incorrect, incomplete, biased, or misleading. You are responsible for reviewing AI outputs before relying on them. See our Terms of Use for more on AI disclaimers.

6. How we share information

We do not sell personal information. We share information only in the following circumstances:

6.1 Service providers

We share information with companies that help us operate the Service (sometimes called "sub-processors"). See section 7 for the current list.

6.2 Other Workspace users in your account

If you are part of a company account, we may share information within that account so that authorized teammates and our team can collaborate with you. We will not share your account information with people outside your account except as described in this policy.

6.3 Legal and safety

We may share information when we believe in good faith that doing so is necessary to (a) comply with applicable law or a valid legal request, (b) enforce our agreements, (c) protect the rights, property, or safety of Pairs, our users, or others, or (d) respond to an emergency.

6.4 Business transfers

If Pairs is involved in a financing, merger, acquisition, sale of assets, reorganization, or similar transaction, information may be transferred to the successor or acquirer. We will notify you and remain bound by the commitments in any prior privacy policy unless you accept a new one.

6.5 With your direction

We share information with third parties when you direct us to do so, for example when you choose to connect an integration or share materials with a third party through the Workspace.

8. International data transfers

Pairs is a U.S. company, and many of our service providers are based in the United States. Members of our team also operate from the United Arab Emirates. If you access the Service from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to, processed in, and stored in jurisdictions whose data protection laws may differ from those in your country.

For transfers of personal information from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland to a country that has not received an adequacy decision, we rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (and the UK Addendum where applicable) with our service providers. A copy of these mechanisms is available on request to contact@pairs.ai.

9. Cookies and similar technologies

The Site uses a minimal number of cookies. We do not use cookies for advertising or for cross-site tracking. The cookies and similar technologies we use are:

  • Strictly necessary cookies, including session and authentication cookies for the Workspace, and security cookies that protect against common attacks. These cannot be turned off without breaking the Service.
  • Preference storage, used to remember choices you make, such as accepted notices.

If we add analytics, performance, or marketing cookies in the future, we will update this policy and, where required, ask for your consent first.

10. How long we keep information

We keep information only as long as we need it:

  • Access requests: while your application is active, and for a reasonable period after, then we delete or anonymize the record.
  • Workspace content: while you have an active account, and for a reasonable wind-down period after termination, after which we delete it unless we are required to keep it longer for legal or accounting reasons.
  • Email and correspondence: for as long as relevant to the matter, then archived or deleted under our internal retention schedule.
  • Logs and security records: typically up to 24 months.

You may ask us to delete your information sooner. See section 12 for how to make a request.

11. Security

We take security seriously. We use a combination of technical, administrative, and physical measures to protect information, including:

  • Transport encryption (HTTPS/TLS) for all traffic between you and the Service;
  • Encryption at rest for stored content held by our database and hosting providers;
  • Access controls and the principle of least privilege for our team members;
  • Logging and monitoring of administrative actions;
  • Vendor due diligence on the service providers listed in section 7.

No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you believe your account or any information has been compromised, please write to contact@pairs.ai.

12. Your rights and choices

You have the following rights with respect to information we hold about you:

  • Access: ask for a copy of the information we hold.
  • Correction: ask us to correct information that is wrong or out of date.
  • Deletion: ask us to delete information, subject to legal exceptions.
  • Portability: ask us to provide certain information in a portable format.
  • Restriction and objection: ask us to restrict or stop certain processing.
  • Withdraw consent: where we rely on your consent, withdraw it at any time.
  • Complain: contact a supervisory authority where you live or work.

To exercise any of these rights, write to contact@pairs.ai. We will respond within the period required by applicable law, and we may need to verify your identity before we act on a request.

13. Notice to California residents

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act and the California Privacy Rights Act (together, "CCPA") give you specific rights about information we hold about you.

Categories of personal information collected. In the past 12 months, we have collected:

  • Identifiers (name, email, IP address);
  • Commercial information (company, role);
  • Internet or network activity (logs, access patterns);
  • Professional or employment-related information;
  • Inferences drawn from the above to operate the Service.

Sources, purposes, and sharing are described in sections 3, 4, and 6.

We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes beyond those permitted by the CCPA without your consent.

Your CCPA rights include the right to know, the right to delete, the right to correct, and the right to limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information. To exercise any of these rights, write to contact@pairs.ai. You may designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf; we may ask for proof of that authorization. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any CCPA right.

14. Notice to European Economic Area, UK, and Swiss residents

Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, we process personal information on the legal bases described in section 4. You have the rights set out in section 12, and you have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection authority in your country of habitual residence or place of work. Our international data transfer practices are described in section 8.

If you would like a copy of the Standard Contractual Clauses or UK International Data Transfer Addendum that governs a particular transfer, please write to contact@pairs.ai.

15. Children

The Service is intended for use by people who are at least 18 years old and in a professional capacity. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please write to contact@pairs.ai and we will delete it.

16. Third-party links

The Service may link to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices. Their privacy policies, not ours, apply to those sites.

17. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we make a material change, we will update the effective date at the top and, where appropriate, notify you by email or through the Service. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
