Introduction

Welcome to ModusBrain, Inc. ("ModusBrain", "Company", "we", "us", or "our").

ModusBrain is an AI-powered operational knowledge and workflow automation platform that helps businesses capture, structure, and act on organizational knowledge — turning siloed information into intelligent, searchable, and automatable systems across teams, tools, and processes.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and share information about you when you visit our website at modusbrain.com, create an account, or use any of the ModusBrain cloud services (collectively, the "Service").

We are committed to protecting your privacy and complying with applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). By using the Service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service.

Definitions

For purposes of this Privacy Policy:

  • Service – refers to the ModusBrain platform, including our website (modusbrain.com), cloud application, APIs, integrations, and any related services operated by ModusBrain, Inc.

  • Personal Data – means any information that can identify you as an individual, either directly or in combination with other data we hold.

  • Workspace Data – means the business information, workflows, knowledge records, and operational content that you or your organization create, upload, or manage inside ModusBrain.

  • Usage Data – means technical information collected automatically about how you interact with the Service (e.g., pages visited, features used, session duration).

  • Cookies – are small text files stored on your device by your browser that help us keep you logged in and remember your preferences.

  • Data Controller – the entity that determines why and how Personal Data is processed. ModusBrain is the Data Controller for account and usage data we collect directly from you.

  • Data Processor – processes data on behalf of a Data Controller. When you use ModusBrain to manage your organization's operational knowledge, ModusBrain acts as a Data Processor for the Workspace Data your organization controls.

  • User – any individual who accesses or uses the Service, whether as a workspace administrator, team member, or visitor.

Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of information to operate and improve the Service:

1. Account Information: When you sign up for ModusBrain, we collect information such as your name, email address, company or organization name, job title, and any other details you provide. This is used to create and manage your account, communicate with you, and deliver the Service.

2. Workspace and Operational Data: ModusBrain is designed to store, organize, and automate your organization's operational knowledge. This means you may input business processes, standard operating procedures (SOPs), team knowledge, workflow configurations, integrations, and related operational content into the platform. This Workspace Data belongs to you and your organization — we process it solely to provide the Service to you and never use it for our own commercial purposes. In self-hosted deployments, we do not have access to your Workspace Data at all; it remains on your own infrastructure.

3. Usage Data: We automatically collect technical information about how you use the Service. This may include your IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, pages or features accessed, time spent, error logs, and interaction events. We use this data to ensure platform stability, improve performance, and understand how our features are being used.

4. Cookies and Session Data: We use essential cookies to maintain your login session and remember your preferences. We do not use advertising cookies, third-party tracking pixels, or behavioral profiling tools. We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as aggregate infrastructure metrics via our CDN) that do not identify individuals.

5. Integration Data: ModusBrain supports integrations with third-party tools (such as communication platforms, project management tools, or data sources). When you connect an integration, we receive only the data that you authorize that service to share, and we use it solely to power the integration you have configured.

6. Support and Communication Data: If you contact us through email, our website contact form, or any support channel, we collect the information you provide (such as your name, email, and message content) to respond to your inquiry and improve our support.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data, and we never sell your personal information to third parties.

How We Use Your Information

ModusBrain uses your information to provide, operate, and improve our AI-powered knowledge platform. Specifically, we use it to:

  • Deliver the Service: Create and manage your workspace, process your knowledge records and workflows, and provide all features of the ModusBrain platform.

  • Personalize Your Experience: Learn how your team uses the platform and adapt the interface, AI suggestions, and recommendations accordingly.

  • Power AI Features: Use your workspace content to provide intelligent search, automated workflow suggestions, knowledge gap detection, and other AI-driven features that make ModusBrain useful to your organization. Your data is never used to train models that benefit other organizations.

  • Communicate with You: Send you important service notifications (e.g., account alerts, security notices, billing updates) and, if you have opted in, product updates or newsletters. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time.

  • Process Payments: Handle your subscription billing securely through our third-party payment processor. We do not store full payment card details.

  • Ensure Security and Compliance: Detect and prevent unauthorized access, fraud, abuse, or other violations of our Terms of Service. Monitor for and respond to security incidents.

  • Improve and Develop the Platform: Analyze aggregate usage patterns to understand which features work well, identify areas for improvement, and guide our product development decisions.

  • Comply with Legal Obligations: Fulfill our obligations under applicable laws including tax, accounting, and data protection regulations, and respond to lawful requests from government authorities.

We will not use your Personal Data for any purpose that is incompatible with those outlined above without your explicit consent.

How We Share Your Information

We value your trust and handle your data carefully. We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

  • Trusted Service Providers: We work with carefully selected third-party providers who help us operate the platform — including cloud infrastructure (AWS), network and security services (Cloudflare), payment processing (Stripe), and error monitoring (Sentry). These providers are contractually bound to use your data only to provide their services to us and to protect it accordingly.

  • Your Organization: If you use ModusBrain as part of a team or organization, your account information and workspace activity may be visible to workspace administrators within your organization, consistent with the role-based permissions you and your admin have configured.

  • Integrations You Authorize: When you connect ModusBrain to a third-party integration, we share the data necessary to power that integration, but only with your explicit authorization and direction.

  • Business Transactions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of the transaction. We will notify you before your data is transferred to a different privacy policy.

  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information when required to do so by law, court order, or lawful government request, and only to the extent required.

  • Protection of Rights and Safety: We may disclose information when we believe in good faith that it is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of ModusBrain, our users, or others.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

ModusBrain uses a minimal set of cookies — only what is strictly necessary to operate the platform securely and effectively.

  • Session Cookies: Keep you logged in as you navigate the platform. Without these, you would need to re-authenticate on every page.

  • Preference Cookies: Remember your settings and preferences (such as language or UI configuration) so you don't have to reset them each time.

  • Security Cookies: Help us detect and prevent unauthorized access, session hijacking, and other security threats.

We do not use advertising cookies, social media tracking pixels, Google Analytics, or any behavioral profiling technology. Your activity on ModusBrain is not tracked across other websites.

You may disable cookies in your browser settings, but doing so will prevent you from remaining logged in or accessing core platform features.

Data Security

We take the security of your data seriously. ModusBrain implements industry-standard technical and organizational safeguards including:

  • Encryption of data in transit (TLS) and at rest (AES-256)

  • Strict role-based access controls limiting who can access your data internally

  • Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments

  • Secure credential management and multi-factor authentication support

  • Incident response procedures to contain and report security events

While we implement robust security measures, no system is 100% impenetrable. We cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet. We encourage you to use strong passwords and protect your account credentials. In the event of a data breach affecting your Personal Data, we will notify you and relevant authorities as required by law.

Data Retention

We retain your Personal Data only for as long as necessary to provide the Service and fulfill the purposes described in this policy:

  • Active Accounts: Your account data and Workspace Data are retained for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service.

  • After Deletion: When you delete your account or request data deletion, we will securely delete or anonymize your Personal Data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal, financial, or compliance obligations (such as tax records or fraud prevention logs).

  • Usage Data: Aggregate and technical usage data may be retained for a shorter period and used only for platform analysis and improvement.

  • Backup Data: If deletion of data in backups is technically infeasible immediately, we will isolate the data from further use until deletion is complete.

International Data Transfers

ModusBrain is headquartered in the United States, and our primary cloud infrastructure is hosted in the European Union (Frankfurt, Germany). We plan to expand to additional regions in 2026 to support local data residency requirements.

For Personal Data originating from the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we ensure that any cross-border transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission. No transfer of your Personal Data will occur to a country or organization without adequate data protection controls in place.

Children's Privacy

ModusBrain is not intended for individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect Personal Data from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us with their information, please contact us immediately and we will delete it promptly.

Third-Party Links

Our website or platform may contain links to third-party websites, integrations, or services not operated by ModusBrain. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before engaging with them.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our Service evolves or legal requirements change. When we do, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this page. For material changes, we will notify you by email or through a prominent notice in the platform before the change takes effect. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
