Privacy & GDPR
Last updated: September 2026 · Plain-English summary for the Guardian AI MVP.
What we process
To provide monitoring we process your name, email address, optional company name, and the public social profile URLs or handles you ask us to watch, together with the public content visible on those profiles.
Lawful basis
We process this data on the basis of your consent (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(a)), which you give when signing up. You can withdraw consent at any time; withdrawal does not affect processing that has already taken place.
Your rights
You have the right to request access to, rectification of, or erasure of your personal data, to restrict or object to processing, and to data portability. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
Retention
Alert records are kept for 90 days and then deleted, unless you delete your account earlier, in which case your personal data is erased without undue delay. Waitlist contact details are kept until you ask us to remove them or the product launches, whichever comes first.
No sale of personal data
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We do not share it with third parties except the processors strictly needed to run the service (for example, email delivery), under appropriate contracts.
Cookies & analytics
This MVP does not set tracking cookies or run behavioural analytics. If we add privacy-respecting analytics in future, this notice will be updated before anything is enabled.
Contact & privacy requests
For any privacy question, access or erasure request, contact our data protection contact at privacy@guardian-ai.example. We aim to respond within 30 days.
Use of Guardian AI is also subject to our Limitation of Liability. Guardian AI is a best-effort monitoring aid, not a guarantee of detection.
