GC AI Privacy Policy

1. Personal Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of personal information for the purposes described below:

• Contact information, e.g., your email address, first name, last name, address, city, state, and ZIP code: To communicate with you and provide access to the Service.
• Customer Support information, e.g., data you share when you contact us for help: To resolve issues and improve our Service or Site.
• Social Media Information, e.g., interactions on LinkedIn, X, or YouTube: To engage with users and promote the Service.
• Payment and Transaction Data, e.g., credit card information: If you sign up and pay for the Service online, we will collect payment and transaction data. GC AI's payment processor for the Services is Stripe. See Stripe Privacy Policy.
• Google Sign-In Services: If you choose to sign into the Service using Google sign-in services, then Google shares with us certain information, such as your full name, language preference, nickname, e-mail address and picture.
• Voice Recording and Audio Data, e.g., audio recorded when you opt to use our voice transcription features: To convert speech to text for your convenience. Our voice recording feature is entirely optional and only activates when you explicitly initiate it. We do not record audio in the background or without your knowledge. We process voice recordings solely for the purpose of transcribing speech to text, and your audio data is processed to generate text transcriptions that you can use within the Service.
• Usage Information, e.g., IP address, browser type: We use third-party web analytics services to collect and analyze information about how you interact with our Service or Site. Our service providers may use cookies or similar technologies to collect this information. You can prevent analytics tracking on return visits by disabling cookies in your browser or by using opt-out mechanisms provided by these services, which we can direct you to upon request. We have configured our analytics implementation to anonymize IP addresses and comply with applicable privacy laws. This means we have enabled IP anonymization (also known as IP masking), which removes identifying portions of your IP address before it is processed by our analytics providers.
• Business Visitors, e.g., IP address, pages visited: We also use B2B visitor identification services to identify companies that visit our Site to help us understand which organizations are interested in the Service. This information is used to identify the company or organization you are associated with. For business visitors, our visitor identification tools may de-anonymize Site visitors for marketing purposes. If you wish to opt out of business visitor tracking, you can do so by adjusting your cookie preferences in our cookie banner or by using your browser's privacy settings to block cookies.
