SidekickAI ("SidekickAI", "we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to handling your information responsibly.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how it may be shared, and the choices available to you when you use the SidekickAI website, web application, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
Official Website: https://sidekickai-1.onrender.com/
By using the Service, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Service.
The information we collect depends on how you use SidekickAI and which features or integrations you enable.
When you create or use a SidekickAI account, we may collect information such as:
- Full name.
- Email address.
- Account credentials and authentication information.
- User preferences and application settings.
- Information you provide when contacting us.
Passwords are not stored as plain text. Authentication credentials are handled using the security mechanisms implemented by the Service.
If you contact us directly, we may also receive the contents of your message and any information or attachments you choose to include.
SidekickAI can connect with third-party services that you choose to authorize.
The information available to SidekickAI depends on the service, permissions you grant, and features you use.
When you connect a Google account, SidekickAI may access information from Gmail and, where enabled, Google Calendar through Google's authorization system.
Depending on the permissions granted, this may include:
- Gmail messages and related message information.
- Email content required to provide communication-analysis features.
- Information required to generate summaries and briefings.
- Information required to identify priorities, deadlines, and action items.
- Information required to prepare draft replies.
- Google Calendar events and related schedule information where Calendar access is enabled.
SidekickAI uses this information to provide the features you have enabled, including communication analysis, executive briefings, prioritization, and draft generation.
Google authorization is controlled through Google's OAuth system. You can revoke SidekickAI's access from your Google Account settings.
When you authorize Google integrations, SidekickAI may receive OAuth credentials that allow the Service to maintain the authorized connection.
These credentials are stored and handled as authentication secrets and are used only to provide the connected functionality.
Where WhatsApp Business integration is supported, SidekickAI may process information made available through the authorized WhatsApp Business Platform connection.
This may include:
- WhatsApp Business Account information.
- Connected business phone-number information.
- Customer messages and related communication data available through the authorized integration.
The WhatsApp integration is intended for supported WhatsApp Business accounts and does not provide SidekickAI with access to personal WhatsApp profiles or unrelated private chats.
SidekickAI may support additional integrations over time.
When you connect another service, the information accessible to SidekickAI will depend on the permissions granted and the functionality provided by that integration.
We use information collected through the Service to operate, maintain, secure, and improve SidekickAI.
Depending on the features you use, this may include:
We use information to:
- Authenticate your account.
- Maintain your session.
- Synchronize connected services.
- Store and organize supported communications.
- Provide dashboard information.
- Maintain application settings and preferences.
Information from connected services may be processed by AI systems to provide features such as:
- Message analysis.
- Classification and prioritization.
- Executive briefings.
- Summaries.
- Identification of action items and deadlines.
- Suggested follow-up actions.
- Draft reply generation.
- Other AI-assisted productivity features.
AI processing is performed only to the extent reasonably necessary to provide the relevant feature.
Some SidekickAI features may process connected information in the background.
For example, when an integration is enabled, the Service may synchronize newly available information and process it to keep supported dashboard, briefing, or communication features up to date.
The exact behavior depends on the integrations and features enabled on your account.
We may process information to:
- Authenticate users.
- Detect and prevent unauthorized activity.
- Maintain secure sessions.
- Diagnose technical problems.
- Monitor system reliability.
- Prevent abuse.
- Protect the Service and its users.
SidekickAI may use third-party AI model providers or infrastructure providers to process information required for AI-powered features.
For example, when an AI feature analyzes a communication or generates a briefing or draft, relevant information may be sent to the configured AI provider for processing.
The information sent depends on the feature being used and the data required to produce the requested result.
We do not intentionally send information that is unrelated to the requested AI operation.
Third-party providers may process information in accordance with their own terms, privacy policies, and data-processing practices.
Where applicable, SidekickAI is configured to use providers and settings intended to limit unnecessary retention or secondary use of submitted information.
SidekickAI may store information required to operate the Service, including:
- Account information.
- User preferences.
- Connected-service configuration.
- OAuth credentials or tokens required to maintain authorized integrations.
- Synchronized communications.
- AI-generated summaries and classifications.
- Drafts and recommendations.
- Application-level memory or contextual information.
- Session information.
- Other information required for the features you use.
The amount and type of information stored depends on your account configuration and use of the Service.
SidekickAI may provide features that allow relevant information to be retained as application-level memory or context.
This information may be derived from communications or other information processed through supported features.
The purpose of this information is to help SidekickAI provide more relevant briefings, recommendations, drafts, and other assistance in future interactions.
Not every piece of information processed by SidekickAI will necessarily become part of long-term memory.
We do not sell or rent your personal information.
Information may be shared or processed in the following circumstances:
We may use third-party providers for services such as:
- AI model processing.
- Cloud hosting.
- Database infrastructure.
- Authentication.
- Email or communication infrastructure.
- Monitoring and technical operations.
These providers receive information only to the extent reasonably necessary to provide their services to SidekickAI.
When you authorize an integration, SidekickAI communicates with the relevant third-party service using the permissions granted by you.
For example, Gmail information may be retrieved from Google and supported actions may be sent back to Google when authorized.
We may disclose information where reasonably necessary to:
- Comply with applicable law.
- Respond to valid legal processes.
- Protect the rights, safety, or property of SidekickAI, its users, or others.
- Investigate security incidents, fraud, or abuse.
If SidekickAI is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, information associated with the Service may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information handled by SidekickAI.
These measures may include:
- HTTPS/TLS for network communication.
- Secure authentication mechanisms.
- Password hashing.
- Access controls.
- Protected server-side environment configuration.
- Controlled database access.
- Secure handling of OAuth credentials.
- Session and token management.
- Tenant-level data isolation.
No internet-connected system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by the Service.
SidekickAI may use browser cookies and local storage to provide core application functionality.
These mechanisms may be used for purposes such as:
- Maintaining authenticated sessions.
- Handling authentication state.
- Remembering interface preferences.
- Maintaining application settings.
Some authentication cookies may be configured as HTTP-only and secure cookies where supported by the application environment.
SidekickAI does not use third-party advertising trackers as part of its core application functionality.
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service and maintain the features you use.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and its purpose.
For example, information may be retained while:
- Your account remains active.
- A connected integration is enabled.
- The information is required to provide a feature.
- It is necessary for security or operational purposes.
- Retention is required by law.
When information is no longer required, it may be deleted or otherwise removed in accordance with the Service's applicable deletion and retention processes.
You may disconnect supported third-party integrations from your SidekickAI account through the available account settings.
When an integration is disconnected, SidekickAI will no longer use that authorization to retrieve new information from the relevant service.
Previously synchronized information may remain stored unless it is separately deleted or removed through the applicable account or data-management functionality.
Disconnecting an integration does not necessarily delete information already stored in the third-party service itself.
Where account deletion functionality is available, you may request or initiate deletion of your SidekickAI account and associated information.
You may also contact us to request account deletion or information about the data associated with your account.
Some information may need to be retained for a limited period where reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or legitimate operational purposes.
Deletion from SidekickAI does not delete information that remains stored by third-party services such as Google, Meta, or other connected providers.
Depending on where you live and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information.
These may include, where applicable:
- Requesting access to personal information.
- Requesting correction of inaccurate information.
- Requesting deletion of personal information.
- Requesting information about how your data is processed.
- Disconnecting third-party integrations.
- Withdrawing authorization for connected services.
- Requesting an export of certain information.
To make a privacy-related request, contact us using the details provided below.
We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
SidekickAI is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children where such collection is prohibited by applicable law.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information to SidekickAI in circumstances where it should not have been collected, please contact us so that we can review the situation and take appropriate action.
SidekickAI integrates with services operated by third parties.
Those services may have their own privacy policies and terms, and SidekickAI does not control how those third parties independently process information.
Examples include Google, Meta, and other providers whose services may be connected to SidekickAI.
You should review the privacy practices of any third-party service you choose to connect.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as the Service, integrations, or applicable requirements change.
When we make material changes, we may provide reasonable notice through the Service or another appropriate method.
The updated version will include a revised "Last Updated" date.
Your continued use of SidekickAI after an updated Privacy Policy becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the revised policy, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
If you have questions, concerns, privacy requests, or other inquiries regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact us at:
