How ARKA-AI complies with privacy regulations including GDPR, CCPA, and other data protection laws.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to users in the European Union. ARKA-AI is designed to comply with GDPR requirements:
We process personal data based on contractual necessity (providing the service you signed up for) and legitimate interest (improving the service).
You can access, correct, delete, or export your data at any time. Contact support to exercise these rights.
We collect only the data necessary to provide the service. We don't ask for information we don't need.
Privacy considerations are built into our architecture from the start, not added as an afterthought.
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides privacy rights to California residents. Here's how we comply:
No Data Sales
ARKA-AI does not sell your personal information to third parties. We never have, and we never will. This means CCPA's "Do Not Sell" requirements don't apply to us, but we support the spirit of the regulation.
When using third-party services, we have appropriate agreements in place:
| Service | Purpose | DPA Status |
|---|---|---|
| Clerk | Authentication | DPA in place |
| Stripe | Payment processing | DPA in place |
| Vercel | Hosting | DPA in place |
| Database Provider | Data storage | DPA in place |
