Personal Information Collection: The app collects personal data provided by users, including your name, email address, preferred language, persona data, preferred tone of voice and writing style data as well as age, location and industry if provided. We will also collect data related to social media interactions, and technical information like log data, usage data, and device information.
2. Usage of Personal Information: Collected data is used to improve services, conduct research, communicate with users, and ensure security. Aggregated information may be shared with third parties for research and analysis.
3. Disclosure of Personal Information: Personal data may be shared with vendors, for business transactions, legal requirements, and with affiliates. User actions on the site may be visible to other users. The company does not disclose personal information for third-party marketing.
4. Data Security and International Users: Measures are in place to protect personal data, but complete security is not guaranteed. The service is hosted on servers in Europe and uses services from the United States, meaning data may be transferred internationally.

However, please read the full Privacy Policy before you decide to use the application.
