VerbaFlow is a writing platform that provides tools for planning, drafting, editing, and publishing essays.

We respect your privacy and are committed to keeping personal information accurate, confidential, and secure. We collect, use, and disclose personal information only with your consent and only for the services that we provide you.

2. Definitions

• "Privacy" refers to an individual's right to retain control over the collection, use, and disclosure of their personal information.
• "Personal Information" means identifying information about an individual in oral or recorded form. Data from which all personal identifiers have been removed, such that the information could not reasonably be used to identify the individual, is not considered personal information.

3. Purposes of Collecting Personal Information

VerbaFlow identifies the purposes for which personal information is collected at or before the time the information is collected. If we intend to use personal information for any other purpose, we will seek your consent.

4. How We Use Your Information

With your consent, we use your personal information for the purposes of providing you access to, and enabling your participation in, the Service via your account. When you voluntarily provide your email address, profile information from your Google Account (if you signed in through Google), and other information requested by VerbaFlow, we use this information solely for providing you access to the Service.

We only send transactional and service-related communications. We do not send marketing or promotional emails.

5. Consent

We obtain consent before or when we collect, use, or disclose personal information about you, except where otherwise required by law. You can provide consent expressly, implicitly, or through an authorized representative. You can withdraw consent at any time by deleting your account.

6. Limiting Collection

We collect personal information only by fair and lawful means. This information may include your email address and profile information from your Google Account. We collect only what is necessary to provide you access to the Service.

7. Limiting Use, Disclosure, and Retention

We use personal information only for the reasons it was collected, unless you give consent to use or disclose it for another reason. We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the identified purposes.

We may share personal information with service providers who are involved in delivering our services. These service providers are obligated to protect personal information and are only given the information necessary to perform their designated functions. They include:

Personal information is stored and processed within the European Economic Area (EEA). By providing us with your information, you consent to this processing.

8. Maintaining Accuracy

We keep the personal information in our possession accurate, complete, current, and relevant, based on the most recent information available. You are responsible for notifying us about the accuracy of your personal information and may have it amended as appropriate.

9. Safeguards

The safety and privacy of personal information is our top priority. Personal information is protected by security safeguards appropriate to the nature and format of the information being stored. We strive to protect personal information from theft, loss, and unauthorized access, copying, modification, use, disclosure, and disposal.

10. Individual Access

Except as restricted by law, upon written request, you will be informed of the existence, use, and disclosure of your personal information and will be given access to that information. You are able to challenge the accuracy and completeness of the information and may request to have it amended.

11. Cookies

We use essential cookies required for the Service to function, including session management and authentication. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.
