We analyze generated content and usage data to improve auto-furnishing, spatial recommendations, search accuracy, and overall service stability.
Privacy by Default: Unless the Enterprise Customer confirms they have secured explicit consent from their End-Clients for AI training, we categorically exclude direct identifiers (Names, Phones, Emails, Detailed Addresses, Raw Notes, highly specific 3D models) from AI training datasets.
AI training datasets are logically separated from raw CRM databases, and direct identifiers are masked, pseudonymized, or deleted.
If a User or End-Client opts out or withdraws consent for AI training, we will immediately exclude their data from future training pipelines, except where retention is legally required.
Article 8. Future Third-Party AI/Robotics Platforms
If we intend to use User Content or personal information beyond the currently disclosed service improvements (e.g., for Physical AI, robotics, selling datasets, or providing data to third-party AI platforms), we will enforce a strict opt-in policy and fulfill all legal notices and consent requirements prior to any such use.
Article 9. Enterprise Customers' CRM Consent Management (B2B/B2B2C)
Our CRM features act as a Data Processor. Enterprise Customers (Data Controllers) must obtain all legally required notices and consents from their End-Clients before inputting data into the Service.
We provide UI features to help Enterprise Customers log and manage these consents.
Data without confirmed consent is strictly restricted from our independent AI training or third-party provision.
If an End-Client directly exercises their privacy rights with us, we will coordinate with the respective Enterprise Customer to fulfill the request.
Article 10. Restriction on Sensitive and Unique Identifiers
We do not collect sensitive personal information or unique government identifiers.
🡪 WARNING: Users must NEVER input sensitive data into consultation notes, drawings, content, or AI Agent prompts. This includes Social Security Numbers, National IDs (e.g., Resident Registration Numbers), Passports, Driver’s Licenses, protected health information (PHI), religious/political views, or criminal records.
If such data is detected, we reserve the right to delete, mask, or de-identify it without prior notice.
Article 11. Pseudonymization and Aggregation
We may pseudonymize or anonymize personal information for statistical purposes, scientific research, or service improvement as permitted by law. Pseudonymized data is subject to strict technical safeguards, including the separation of additional info and a strict prohibition on re-identification.
Article 12. Data Destruction
Electronic files are securely and permanently deleted so they cannot be recovered.
Paper documents are shredded or incinerated.
Data required to be kept by law is moved to a separate, isolated database.
Article 13. Rights of Data Subjects (GDPR & CCPA Rights)
Data subjects have the right to request:
Access (Right to Know): What personal data we hold.
Rectification: Correction of inaccurate data.
Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): Deletion of personal data.
Restriction / Opt-Out: Stopping the processing or sale/sharing of data.

Article 15. Automated Decision-Making and AI Recommendations
Our AI features (auto-furnishing, product recommendations) are advisory tools. We do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning the User or End-Client solely based on automated processing. Users may choose to ignore AI recommendations and can contact support for clarifications.
Article 16. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies to maintain sessions, analyze traffic, and provide personalized features. Users can control or block cookies via browser settings:

Article 17. Children's Privacy (COPPA/GDPR)
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 14 (or the applicable age of digital consent, such as 13 in the US or 16 in the EU). Users must confirm they meet the age requirement upon registration. If we discover we have collected data from a minor without legal guardian consent, we will delete it immediately.
