Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

Account information: your name, email address, phone number, professional role and firm details when you register.
Matter information: the facts, documents and descriptions you voluntarily submit when you ask for an assessment, guidance or a lawyer match. This may include sensitive personal data; we treat it accordingly.
Usage data: pages visited, actions taken and device/browser information, used to keep the service secure and improve it.
Cookies: only essential cookies required for login, sessions and security. We do not run advertising trackers.

2. How we use it

To provide assessments, guidance and lawyer matches; to create and manage your account; to communicate with you about your matters and our service; to process payments if you purchase a service; to detect misuse and keep the platform secure; and to improve the product. We do not sell your personal data.

3. Automated processing

Assessments and guidance on Argus Connect are generated with the help of automated systems (AI). Content you submit may be processed by our infrastructure and by vetted AI service providers strictly to generate your response. These outputs are informational and are not legal advice. We do not use your matter data to train public AI models.

4. Sharing

We share your information only with: lawyers you choose to engage (so they can take up your matter); service providers who host our database, send our emails and process payments, under confidentiality obligations; and authorities, when disclosure is required by law or to protect rights and safety. Anything you post in public community areas is visible to others by design.

5. Storage & security

Data is stored on encrypted cloud infrastructure (including Supabase) with access controls, transport encryption (TLS) and authentication safeguards. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your data proportionate to its sensitivity.

6. Retention

We keep account data while your account is active. Matter data is retained as long as needed to provide the service and to meet legal, accounting or dispute-resolution obligations, then deleted or anonymised.

7. Your rights

Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (and similar applicable law), you may request access to your personal data, correction of inaccurate data, erasure where we no longer need it, and withdrawal of consent. Write to [email protected] and we will respond within a reasonable time.

8. Children

The Platform is not directed at anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect data from minors.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the product and the law evolve. Material changes will be posted here with a new date. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
