Effective Date: May 12, 2025
Zion Studios ("we", "us", or "our") operates the Kudo application (the "App"), an AI-powered text-to-document creation tool. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and disclose information when you use our App. By accessing or using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide and improve our AI-powered document creation functionality, customize your experience, communicate with you, process transactions, and comply with legal obligations. We strive to minimize the amount of data we collect to respect your privacy.
Text Inputs and Prompts: When you use our App to create documents, we process the text inputs and prompts you provide to our AI system. These inputs are used to generate your requested documents.
AI-Generated Content: The documents, text, and other content generated by our AI in response to your prompts are stored locally on your device by default.
Personal Information: This may include information that can identify you as an individual, such as your name and email address, if you voluntarily provide it to us (e.g., when contacting support or if required for specific premium features). If you make purchases, transaction or billing information may be collected by us or our payment processors.
Usage Information: We may collect anonymized or aggregated information about how you use the App, including your interactions with its AI features and the actions you take. This helps us understand user behavior and improve the App's AI capabilities.
Device Information: We may collect information about your device, including its type, operating system, and unique identifiers (where applicable and necessary for app functionality or analytics, in an anonymized form where possible).
2. How We Use Your Information
We are dedicated to upholding the security and confidentiality of your data, particularly when processing your text through our AI systems. Here's how we utilize the information we gather:
AI Document Creation and Processing: The text inputs you provide are processed by our AI system to generate documents based on your specifications. This processing may occur locally on your device or through secure connections to our AI services, depending on the complexity of your request.
Improving AI Performance: We may use anonymized, aggregated information about how users interact with our AI features to improve the quality, accuracy, and reliability of our document generation capabilities. No personally identifiable information is used in this process without explicit consent.
Storing Documents: The documents you create using our AI are primarily stored locally on your device. We do not automatically upload or access the content of your AI-generated documents unless you explicitly share them with us (e.g., for customer support purposes, with your consent).
Communicating with You: We may use your contact information, if provided by you, to communicate regarding your support inquiries, feedback, or important updates about the App.
Ensuring Security: Your security is paramount to us, especially when processing text through AI systems. We employ robust security measures to protect your information and document content.
Complying with Legal Obligations: We may use information collected to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or legal processes.
3. How We Share Your Information
We are committed to protecting your privacy. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information, text inputs to our AI, or AI-generated document content with third parties for their marketing or advertising purposes.
Your information may be shared in the following limited circumstances:
AI Processing Partners: We may utilize trusted third-party AI service providers to process text inputs and generate documents. These partners are bound by strict confidentiality obligations and are only permitted to use your data to provide services to us for your benefit.
With Service Providers: We may share information with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as payment processing for premium features. These providers are obligated to protect your information.
For Legal Reasons: We may disclose information if required by law, such as to comply with legal process, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or respond to a government request.
Outside of these specific circumstances, your data, especially your AI prompts and generated document content which is stored locally, remains on your device and is not shared by us.
4. Data Security
We take data security seriously, particularly for an AI-powered application that processes your text inputs to create documents. All documents you create and manage within Kudo are stored locally and securely on your device. Your text inputs that may be sent to our AI processing systems are transmitted using encryption protocols.
Our commitment to safeguarding your data means that we implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent unauthorized access, misuse, or alteration of your information and AI-generated content. Your documents remain securely stored within the app on your device, accessible primarily by you.
While we take every precaution to ensure the security of your data, it's important to note that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is entirely foolproof. We recommend that you also take steps to secure your device, such as using a strong device passcode and keeping your operating system updated.
5. AI Data Usage and Retention
Text Inputs: Text you enter as prompts for document creation may be temporarily processed by our AI systems but is not permanently stored in a way that identifies you personally.
AI Training: We do not use your specific document content or personal data to train our AI models without explicit consent. Any AI improvement efforts use anonymized, aggregated data that cannot be traced back to individual users.
Data Retention: We minimize the retention period of any data used for AI processing that might exist on our servers. Document content is primarily stored on your local device and remains under your control.
6. Your Choices
You can choose not to provide certain information or text inputs, although this may limit the AI's ability to generate accurate documents and limit your use of certain features of the App. You can manage permissions for the App through your device settings.
You can delete documents and content you've created with the App at any time through the app's interface. This will remove them from your local storage. If you've explicitly shared any content with us for support purposes, you can request its deletion by contacting us.
7. Changes to this Privacy Policy
At Kudo, we are committed to transparency and keeping you informed about how we handle your information, especially as our AI technologies evolve. As we continue to improve our services, we may need to update or modify this Privacy Policy from time to time.
No Individual Notification of Changes: Please note that we may not provide individual notices for changes to this Privacy Policy. It is your responsibility to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed about any updates.
Your Continued Use: By continuing to use the App after the effective date of any changes to this Privacy Policy, you acknowledge and agree to the updated terms.
Providing Feedback: We value your feedback and encourage you to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns regarding this Privacy Policy or our AI data practices.
Effective Date: This Privacy Policy is effective as of the date indicated at the top of the document. Any changes or updates to the Privacy Policy will become effective immediately upon posting.
