Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 16, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Athar (“we”, “us”) collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards your information when you use our AI legal research platform (the “Service”). We are committed to handling your data — and the legal materials you work with — responsibly.

01Information we collect

We collect the following categories of information:

  • Account information: your name, email address, and organization, provided when you register.
  • Content you submit: prompts, questions, uploaded documents, and other materials you process through the Service (“Your Content”).
  • Usage data: how you interact with the Service, including features used, queries run, and device and log information.
  • Cookies and similar technologies: used to keep you signed in and to understand and improve the Service.

02How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • Provide, operate, and maintain the Service, including retrieving and grounding answers in legal sources.
  • Authenticate you and secure your account.
  • Improve and develop the Service, including reliability, relevance, and the grounding guarantee.
  • Communicate with you about your account, updates, and support requests.
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

03AI processing of Your Content

When you submit Your Content, it is processed by our systems and the AI models that power the Service in order to generate responses. We apply safeguards designed to keep your work confidential and to ground outputs in retrieved sources.

We do not sell Your Content. Where we use service providers to process data on our behalf, they are bound by confidentiality and data-protection obligations.

04How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only:

  • With service providers who help us operate the Service, under appropriate contractual protections.
  • To comply with applicable law, legal process, or enforceable governmental requests.
  • To protect the rights, safety, and security of our users, the public, or the Service.
  • In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to this Policy.

05Data retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You may request deletion of your account and associated data as described below.

06Security

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No system is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

07Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below.

08International transfers

Your information may be processed and stored in countries other than your own. Where required, we put appropriate safeguards in place for such transfers.

09Children's privacy

The Service is not directed to individuals under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
