This Privacy Notice for Farspeak ("I," "me," or "my"), developed by Ujjwal Raj Nepal, describes how and why I might access, collect, store, use, and/or share ("process") your personal information when you use my services ("Services"), including when you:
Questions or concerns? Reading this Privacy Notice will help you understand your privacy rights and choices. I am responsible for making decisions about how your personal information is processed. If you do not agree with my policies and practices, please do not use my Services.
In Short: I collect personal information that you provide to me.
I collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to me when you register on the Services, express an interest in obtaining information about me or my products and Services, when you participate in activities on the Services, or otherwise when you contact me.
Personal Information Provided by You.
The personal information that I collect depends on the context of your interactions with me and the Services,
the choices you make, and the products and features you use. The personal information I collect may include the following:

I may collect data necessary to process your payment if you choose to make purchases, such as your payment instrument number,
and the security code associated with your payment instrument. All payment data is handled and stored by Paddle.

Social Media Login Data.
I may provide you with the option to register with me using your existing social media account details,
like your Facebook, X, or other social media account. If you choose to register in this way, I will collect
certain profile information about you from the social media provider, as described in the section called
“HOW DO I HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?”.
All personal information that you provide to me must be true, complete, and accurate, and you must notify me of any changes to such personal information.
In Short: Some information — such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address and/or browser and device characteristics — is collected automatically when you visit my Services.
I automatically collect certain information when you visit, use, or navigate the Services. This information does not reveal your specific identity (like your name or contact information) but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, location, information about how and when you use my Services, and other technical information. This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of my Services and for my internal analytics and reporting purposes.
The information I collect includes:
In Short: I process your information to provide, improve, and administer my Services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. I may also process your information for other purposes with your consent.
I process your personal information for a variety of reasons, depending on how you interact with my Services, including:
In Short: I only process your personal information when I believe it is necessary and I have a valid legal reason (i.e., legal basis) to do so under applicable law, like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or fulfill my contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill my legitimate business interests.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require me to explain the valid legal bases I rely on in order to process your personal information:
I may process your information if you have given me specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.
In some exceptional cases, I may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent, including, for example:
In Short: I may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.
I may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to gather information when you interact with my Services. Some online tracking technologies help me maintain the security of my Services and your account, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save your preferences, and assist with basic site functions. I also permit third parties and service providers to use online tracking technologies on my Services for analytics and advertising, including to help manage and display advertisements, to tailor advertisements to your interests, or to send abandoned shopping cart reminders (depending on your communication preferences). The third parties and service providers use their technology to provide advertising about products and services tailored to your interests which may appear either on my Services or on other websites.
To the extent these online tracking technologies are deemed to be a “sale”/“sharing” (which includes targeted advertising, as defined under the applicable laws) under applicable US state laws, you can opt out of these online tracking technologies by submitting a request as described below under “DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?”
Specific information about how I use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in my Cookie Notice.
I may share your information with Google Analytics to track and analyze the use of the Services. To opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics across the Services, visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms page.
In Short: I offer products, features, or tools powered by artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar technologies.
As part of my Services, I offer products, features, or tools powered by artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar technologies (collectively, “AI Products”). These tools are designed to enhance your experience and provide you with innovative solutions. The terms in this Privacy Notice govern your use of the AI Products within my Services.
I provide the AI Products through third-party service providers (“AI Service Providers”), including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Cloud AI. As outlined in this Privacy Notice, your input, output, and personal information will be shared with and processed by these AI Service Providers to enable your use of our AI Products for purposes outlined in “WHAT LEGAL BASES DO I RELY ON TO PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?”. You must not use the AI Products in any way that violates the terms or policies of any AI Service Provider.
My AI Products are designed for the following functions:
All personal information processed using my AI Products is handled in line with my Privacy Notice and my agreement with third parties. This ensures high security and safeguards your personal information throughout the process, giving you peace of mind about your data’s safety.
In Short: If you choose to register or log in to my Services using a social media account, I may have access to certain information about you.
My Services offer you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or X logins). Where you choose to do this, I will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. The profile information I receive may vary depending on the social media provider concerned, but will often include your name, email address, friends list, and profile picture, as well as other information you choose to make public on such a social media platform.
I will use the information I receive only for the purposes that are described in this Privacy Notice or that are otherwise made clear to you on the relevant Services. Please note that I do not control, and am not responsible for, other uses of your personal information by your third-party social media provider. I recommend that you review their privacy notice to understand how they collect, use, and share your personal information, and how you can set your privacy preferences on their sites and apps.
In Short: I keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice unless otherwise required by law.
I will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require me keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an account with me.
When I have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, I will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then I will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
In Short: I aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
I have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information I process. However, despite my safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so I cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat my security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.
Although I will do my best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from my Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.
In Short: I do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.
I do not knowingly collect, solicit data from, or market to children under 18 years of age, nor do I knowingly sell such personal information. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If I learn that personal information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, I will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly delete such data from my records. If you become aware of any data I may have collected from children under age 18, please contact me at hello@farspeak.ai.
In Short: Depending on your state of residence in the US or in some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), Switzerland, and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information.
You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time, depending on your country, province, or state of residence.
In some regions (like the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; (iv) if applicable, to data portability; and (v) not to be subject to automated decision-making. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You can make such a request by contacting me by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT ME ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below. I will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
If you are located in the EEA or UK and you believe I am unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your Member State data protection authority or UK data protection authority. If you are located in Switzerland, you may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner.
If I am relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting me by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT ME ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below or updating your preferences. However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
You can unsubscribe from my marketing and promotional communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that I send, or by contacting me using the details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT ME ABOUT THIS NOTICE?” below. You will then be removed from the marketing lists. However, I may still communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.
If you would at any time like to review or change the information in your account or terminate your account, you can:
Upon your request to terminate your account, I will deactivate or delete your account and information from my active databases. However, I may retain some information in my files to prevent fraud, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce my legal terms and/or comply with applicable legal requirements.
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, I do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that I must follow in the future, I will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice.
California law requires me to let you know how I respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, I do not respond to them at this time.

If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to me by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT ME ABOUT THIS NOTICE?”
