Your data might also be processed via other third party software providers, such as (but not restricted to) Google Drive. All data uploaded to Google Drive is encrypted in transit and at rest.

Although we do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our Website; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised data access, destruction or alteration. As technology advances we are regularly updating and enhancing the security and organisational measures.

API & Services - Data Processing Agreement

Scope

This policy is about Dotprod-AI’s softwares and APIs, including but not limited to the SaaS product Documentalist. All are hereafter referred to as the Services.

Personal Data Processing, Purposes, and Controllership

Authentication

Data Processed

Dotprod-AI may collect the credentials of customers' employees, such as email addresses, and set cookies in their browsers for authentication purposes.

Purpose

The sole purpose is to authenticate users accessing the service.

Consent

Explicit consent is obtained from users at the time of login.

Retention

Dotprod-AI may retain user credentials for the duration of the contractual relationship with the Customer (the user's employer), with a minimum of 14 days

Data Controller Status

Dotprod-AI acts as a data controller in this context.

Legal basis for processing

Contract : the processing is necessary for the delivery of the service, to safeguard data access controls.

Data processed via Dotprod AI's Services

Data Processed

Dotprod-AI processes documents belonging to the Customer and containing personal information as a part of its indexing service. This may include personal data of the customer's employees or third parties. Access to indexed data is strictly limited to authorized engineering staff for maintenance or product development, in line with our Data Security Policy

Purpose

No personal data processed by Dotprod AI is used for any purposes outside those necessary for the provision of the Services.

Retention

The retention policy aligns with the customer's document lifecycle : Dotprod AI Services behaves in sync with the Customer’s file management system, meaning that Dotprod-AI will only retain its copy of a file’s content as long as the file exists in the Customer’s file system. If a file is modified or deleted by the Customer, Dotprod-AI will re-index, or de-index the corresponding content as soon as the file system’s API notifies the change (usually within minutes, depending on the file system provider).

Data Controller Status

In this context, Dotprod-AI acts as a data processor.

Legal basis for processing

Contract : the processing is necessary for the delivery of the service.

Before collecting user credentials for authentication purposes, Dotprod AI shows a notification to inform the user about which information will be collected and for which purpose. The sharing of information is therefore informed, specific and voluntary, as required by GDPR.

Data localisation and international data transfers

Dotprod-AI is committed to ensuring the secure and lawful handling of all personal data within its custody. This commitment extends to how data is localized and transferred internationally.

Data hosting and processing agreements

Primary data hosting By default, all personal data collected by Dotprod-AI is hosted by Scaleway SAS, in data centres based in France. Scaleway SAS operates with the following Data Processing Agreement : Scaleway SAS - Data Processing Agreement

Roles & responsibilities When Dotprod AI functions as a data controller, Scaleway SAS is engaged as a data processor. Conversely, when Dotprod AI acts as data processor, Scaleway SAS assumes the role of a sub-processor.

AI models processing

In-house AI models processing When Dotprod AI runs AI models on Customer’s data, models run in the Dotprod-AI infrastructure. This ensures that data remains under our control without being transmitted to third-party entities via APIs for processing.

Consent for AI models training No AI models are trained on customer data without obtaining explicit consent from the data subjects or from the customers, respecting the principle of purpose limitation.

Restriction on third-party benefits The use of AI models trained on customer data to benefit third parties is strictly prohibited unless such arrangements are explicitly agreed upon through formal contracts, ensuring data subjects’ rights and interests are safeguarded.

Custom deployment options

Dotprod-AI offers flexibility in data hosting, including options for deployment on other cloud platforms at the customer's request or on-premises installations. In such cases, data localization and processing agreements will adhere to the legal requirements and protections specified by the chosen hosting solution, ensuring continuous compliance with GDPR and other relevant data protection laws.

Data Minimisation

Dotprod-AI commits to collecting only the personal data necessary for the specified purposes of authentication and service usage analytics. The principle of data minimization is applied rigorously, ensuring no unnecessary personal data is processed.

Essential Data Collection For authentication purposes, the collection of user email credentials and the setting of authentication cookies are deemed necessary. This approach safeguards against unauthorized access, aligning with our security measures without excessive data processing.

Service Usage Analytics Dotprod-AI performs analytics to monitor product engagement and optimize service delivery. This is achieved by aggregating data such as the number of API calls, which provides insights into service utilization without identifying individual users or processing personal data beyond what is necessary.

Data Security

Please refer to our Data Security Policy for all information about technical and organizational measures in place to protect data against unauthorized or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage. These include comprehensive details about data encryption, access controls, and data breach policies (but not limited to).

Dotprod-AI commits to prompt action upon receiving rectification requests. Right to Erasure (‘Right to Be Forgotten’): Data subjects have the right to have personal data erased under certain conditions, such as when the personal data is no longer necessary for the original purpose, or when the data subject withdraws consent.
  • Right to Restrict Processing: Data subjects have rights to 'block' or suppress further use of their personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of that data.

  • Right to Object: Data subjects have the right to object to the processing of personal data for purposes of direct marketing, scientific/historical research, or statistical analysis, except where the processing is necessary for the performance of a public interest task or exercise of official authority.
  • Rights Related to Automated Decision Making and Profiling: Data subjects have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning them or similarly significantly affects them, unless necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or based on the data subject’s explicit consent.
