Privacy Statement
Last updated:
At zeropii, privacy is at the heart of everything. Our demo shows how personal data in text can be detected and masked before that text goes to an AI model. In this privacy statement we explain which data we process and why.
1. Who are we?
zeropii is a product of Go-Virtual, a sole proprietorship registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 77601262, also trading as Artificial Studio.
For privacy questions, email us at [email protected].
2. Which data do we process?
When you use the demo or request access, we may process the following data:
- your name, company name and email address;
- the text you enter in the demo;
- technical data needed for security, debugging and abuse prevention;
- sanitised demo statistics, such as which types of data were masked, counts, scores and timestamps.
We use the text you enter in the demo only temporarily, to detect and mask personal data. We do not store this original text.
We design the demo statistics so they are not traceable to you or other individuals. If, in a specific situation, data were still traceable, we treat it as personal data.
3. What do we use this data for?
We use your data to:
- run the demo;
- detect and mask personal data in text;
- send the sanitised text to the chosen AI model;
- correctly restore the masked data afterwards;
- contact you in response to your request or interest;
- secure the demo and prevent abuse;
- improve zeropii.
4. How does the demo handle your text?
zeropii works as a privacy filter in front of the AI model.
When you enter text in the demo, zeropii first looks for personal data. That data is replaced with safe placeholders. Only then does the sanitised prompt go to the chosen AI model.
The original personal data and the mapping between the personal data and placeholders stay within zeropii's processing. They are not stored and not shared with the AI model.
5. Which legal bases do we use?
We only process data when there is a valid reason. Depending on the situation, we process data:
- to perform your request, for example when you use the demo;
- because you leave your details so we can contact you;
- because we have a legitimate interest in security, abuse prevention and improving the service;
- because we are legally required to retain certain administrative data.
6. Which external services do we use?
For the demo we use external service providers.
We use a database to store demo sign-ups and sanitised demo statistics. This database is used within the EU.
In the demo, an external AI model may be used. The AI model receives only the sanitised prompt, so without the personal data that zeropii has masked.
If you choose your own API key in the demo, the sanitised prompt goes to the provider you select, such as Anthropic, OpenAI or Google.
In a production setup, zeropii can also be configured so the model runs on your own infrastructure. In that case the entire processing can stay within your own environment.
Some service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. If that happens, we use appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses.
We do not sell personal data.
7. How long do we keep data?
We keep your demo sign-up, such as name, company name and email address, for up to 24 months, unless you ask for deletion sooner.
We do not keep the text you enter in the demo.
We keep sanitised demo statistics to improve how zeropii works and its quality.
We keep technical logs for up to 30 days, and only for security, debugging and abuse prevention.
We keep administrative data for as long as we are legally required to.
8. Your rights
Where legally applicable, you have the right to:
- access your data;
- have your data corrected;
- have your data deleted;
- restrict the processing;
- object to the processing;
- transfer your data to another party.
Want to exercise your rights? Email us at [email protected]. We respond within one month.
