Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Hubzoid collects, uses, shares and protects personal information when you visit hubzoid.com, send us a project request or email, work with us on implementation services, or contact us about the Hubzoid open-source project. It also explains the choices and rights available to you.

Section 01

Who we are

Hubzoid makes open-source software that gives an organization one shared Hub for the knowledge, context, skills, agent definitions and authorized capabilities its internal AI agents use. We also provide implementation services, in which we design, build, deploy and hand over internal agents for organizations under a written agreement.

In this policy, "Hubzoid", "we", "us" and "our" mean Hubzoid. For the personal information described in this policy, Hubzoid is the controller, which means we decide why and how it is processed. You can contact us about privacy matters at privacy@hubzoid.com.

Section 02

Scope of this policy

This policy applies to personal information we process for our own purposes: when you browse hubzoid.com and its documentation, submit a project request, email us, take part in a business relationship with us, report a security issue or contact us about the open-source project.

It does not apply to data processed by a Hubzoid deployment that an organization runs on its own infrastructure. That data stays in the organization's environment and is controlled by that organization. If you use an agent at work, the organization that operates the deployment is responsible for how your information is handled there.

It also does not apply to personal data we process on a customer's behalf while providing implementation services. In that case the customer is the controller, and our processing is governed by our agreement with the customer and the Data Processing Addendum at /legal/dpa. Please direct requests about that data to the organization concerned.

Websites and services operated by others, such as GitHub, YouTube and model providers, are governed by their own privacy policies.

Section 03

Information you give us

Project requests. When you use the contact form on our Build with us page, we collect your name, work email address, company, team and the work you would like an agent to do, along with any other details you choose to share.

Email and correspondence. When you email contact@hubzoid.com or another Hubzoid address, we receive your name, email address, the content of your message and any attachments. We keep a record of our correspondence with you.

Business relationship information. When your organization works with us, we collect the names, work contact details and roles of the people involved, billing and invoicing details, contract records and communications about the work.

Security reports. When you report a vulnerability, we collect your contact details, the content of your report and any follow-up correspondence.

Open-source project interactions. When you open an issue, submit a contribution or send a private vulnerability report on GitHub, we see your GitHub username, your public profile information and the content you submit. Contributions include the name and email address in your commit sign-off.

Please do not include sensitive personal information, such as health information, government identifiers or payment card details, in a project request or email.

Section 04

Information we collect automatically

Request data. When you visit hubzoid.com, our hosting provider processes the technical information needed to deliver pages and protect the website, including your IP address, browser and device type, the page requested, the referring page and the date and time of the request.

Analytics data. If you consent to analytics, Google Analytics and PostHog collect information about how you use the website. This includes the pages you view, how you arrived at the website, the links and buttons you select, how far you scroll, how long you spend on pages, your browser, device, operating system, screen size and language, your approximate location derived from your IP address, and a pseudonymous identifier stored in a cookie.

Session recordings. If you consent to session replay, PostHog records how you interact with pages, such as mouse movements, clicks, scrolling and page changes, so that we can see where the website is confusing or not working. Text you type into form fields is masked and is not captured.

Browser storage. We store your cookie choices in a cookie on your device. If you choose to save your place in an Academy course or mark lessons complete, we store that progress on your device.

Academy videos. When you press Play on a course lesson, your browser loads the embedded video from YouTube. YouTube receives the technical information needed to deliver it and handles that information under its own privacy policy. We use its privacy-enhanced player and do not load it before you press Play.

Our Cookie Policy at /legal/cookies lists each cookie and storage item we use.

Section 05

Information we receive from others

Colleagues and partners. A colleague or partner may give us your name and work contact details when they introduce you or include you in a project request.

Your organization. When your organization engages us, it may share the names, roles and contact details of the people involved in the work.

Public sources. We may review publicly available business information, such as your company's website, to prepare for a conversation you have requested.

GitHub. When you interact with the open-source project on GitHub, we receive the information described in Information you give us from GitHub.

Section 06

The open-source software

Hubzoid software that you install and run on your own infrastructure does not send usage data, telemetry, prompts, files or other content to Hubzoid. We have no access to a self-hosted deployment or the data it processes.

OpenTelemetry tracing in the software is off by default. When an operator turns it on, traces go only to the endpoint that operator configures. Optional tracing to a model provider's own dashboard is also off by default. The bundled chat interface runs with its version update check turned off by default.

Model providers and other services that an organization connects to its deployment process prompts and data under that organization's own agreements with them. Third-party components, such as model provider tools, have their own data practices, described in their providers' terms.

The sample demo Hub includes a skill that can retrieve public pages from hubzoid.com when a user asks for current information about Hubzoid. Such a request is an ordinary web request, handled like any other visit to the website.

When you download the software from GitHub, the Python Package Index or GitHub Container Registry, those services process your request under their own terms and privacy policies.

Section 07

How we use information

To respond to project requests and enquiries, including assessing whether and how we can help and preparing a proposed scope.

To provide implementation services and manage our relationships with customers, including contracts, invoicing, support and communications about the work.

To operate, maintain and secure the website, including delivering pages, preventing abuse and diagnosing technical problems.

To understand how visitors use the website and improve its content, navigation and design, using analytics and session recordings only when you have consented.

To investigate and fix security issues reported to us and to maintain the open-source project.

To comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms and establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

We do not use your personal information to train AI models. We do not make decisions about you based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Section 09

Cookies and analytics

We use a strictly necessary cookie to remember your cookie choices. Google Analytics and PostHog do not load until you consent. When you first visit, a banner lets you accept all optional cookies, reject them or choose by category. The Analytics category covers Google Analytics and PostHog analytics. The Session replay category covers PostHog recordings and can be turned on only together with analytics.

If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal and you have not yet made a choice, we treat it as a refusal of analytics and session replay. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through the Cookie settings link in the website footer.

We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not use analytics data for advertising.

Our Cookie Policy at /legal/cookies describes each cookie and storage item, its purpose and how long it lasts.

Section 10

How we share information

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Service providers. We share information with providers that help us run our business, including website hosting, analytics, email delivery and business email and document services. They may use it only to provide services to us, under contracts that require them to protect it. The current list, with the purpose and location of each provider, is at /legal/subprocessors.

Professional advisers. We may share information with lawyers, accountants, auditors and insurers where needed for their advice or services, subject to duties of confidentiality.

Legal requirements and protection. We may disclose information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, to respond to valid legal process, or to protect the rights, property or safety of Hubzoid, our customers, users of the open-source project or others.

Business transfers. If Hubzoid is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to this policy or a policy that is at least as protective.

With your consent or at your direction. We share information in other ways when you ask us to or agree to it.

Section 11

International data transfers

Hubzoid is based in India, and our service providers process information in the United States and other countries. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those where you live.

When we transfer personal information from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland to a country that has not been recognized as providing adequate protection, we use the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, together with the UK International Data Transfer Addendum and the adjustments required for Switzerland where they apply, or another lawful transfer mechanism.

You can request a copy of the safeguards we rely on by emailing privacy@hubzoid.com.

Section 12

How long we keep information

We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the purposes described in this policy, unless the law requires or permits a longer period.

Project requests and enquiries. While we discuss a possible engagement and for up to 24 months after our last contact. If the discussion leads to an engagement, the information becomes part of our customer records.

Customer records. For the duration of the relationship and afterwards for as long as needed to meet legal, tax and accounting requirements and to establish or defend legal claims.

Hosting request logs. Up to 90 days, for security and abuse prevention.

Analytics data. Up to 14 months in Google Analytics and up to 12 months in PostHog. Session recordings are kept for up to 30 days.

Cookie choices. 12 months in your browser, after which we ask again.

Security reports. For as long as needed to resolve the issue and keep a record of how it was handled.

Personal data we process for customers during implementation services is retained and deleted as set out in the customer's agreement and the Data Processing Addendum at /legal/dpa.

When a retention period ends, we delete the information or anonymize it so that it no longer identifies you.

Section 13

How we protect information

We use technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against loss, misuse and unauthorized access. These include encrypted connections to the website, access limited to the people who need it, multi-factor authentication on business accounts and service providers selected for their security practices.

In implementation services, customer data stays in the customer's environment. Hubzoid access to that environment is time-bound, approved by the customer and revoked at handover.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. If you believe you have found a security issue, please report it to security@hubzoid.com as described at /legal/vulnerability-disclosure.

Section 14

We respond within the time required by applicable law, which is one month under the GDPR and 45 days under the CCPA, extendable where the law allows.

If we decline a request, we will explain why. You can appeal by replying to our decision, and we will review it and tell you the outcome.

If your request relates to data we process for a customer during implementation services, we will pass it to that customer and support them in responding.
