Ember uses artificial intelligence and machine learning technology to provide our services. We want you to understand how this affects your data:
Training Data: Your interactions with the Platform may be used to train and improve our AI models. We implement technical measures to protect your privacy, including de-identification and security controls.
Automated Processing: AI systems automatically process your inputs to generate responses and recommendations. No human reviews your individual conversations unless required for safety, quality assurance, or at your request.
Model Outputs: AI-generated content is based on patterns learned from training data and may not always be accurate or appropriate for your specific situation. Please refer to our Terms of Use for important disclaimers.
5. Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When we no longer need your information, we will securely delete or anonymize it. Aggregated or de-identified data that cannot identify you may be retained indefinitely for research and analytics purposes.
6. Data Security
We implement technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your information, including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, security monitoring, and regular security assessments. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
