Privacy Policy
Last updated 22 October 2026
This policy explains how we handle personal data about you and your Users, visitors to our websites and people who contact us. Where you feed us other people's personal data (your customers, suppliers, staff or contacts), you are the controller and we are your processor — see the DPA.
1. Who we are
2. What we collect, why, and our lawful basis
- Account: name, email, business name, role, hashed password, two-factor and sign-in settings — Create and run your account, authenticate, send service emails, support — Contract (for Users you invite: our legitimate interests in running the account you set up)

- Connected-account tokens (Google/Microsoft/Xero/QuickBooks/FreeAgent/your bank via TrueLayer/social), stored encrypted — To act on the sources you authorise — Contract
- Email you connect directly: instead of forwarding to Nova's address (optional), Nova reads new mail and sends the replies you approve, through Gmail or Outlook via Composio or other providers with an app password, stored encrypted — To read new mail and send the replies you approve; Nova changes nothing else in your mailbox — Contract; for other people's data in it, we act as your processor (see the DPA)
- Calendar you connect (optional): your Google or Outlook calendar, via Composio — To see when you are busy when Nova suggests meeting times in email drafts, show its events on your Calendar page, and add a meeting you agree in a reply you approve; Nova changes nothing else in your calendar — Contract; for other people's data in it, we act as your processor (see the DPA)
- Get Paid (if you turn it on): your customers' contact details and invoice/payment status, from your connected accounting software or what you upload — To draft and send payment-chase emails and texts for your own unpaid invoices, for your approval — Contract; for your customers' data, we act as your processor (see the DPA)

Read through TrueLayer, with the consent you give at your bank, renewed every 90 days — To see which of your invoices have been paid so Get Paid stops chasing them — Contract; for your customers' data in those payments, we act as your processor (see the DPA)

- Abuse reports: if you report a website we host, your name and email (if you give them), the web address and your report — Investigate and act on the report, contact you about it and keep a record of what we did — Legitimate interests (keeping the websites we host lawful and safe); legal obligation where it applies

- Composio — Connects your Gmail or Outlook mailbox, and your Google or Outlook calendar, so Nova can read new mail, send the replies you approve, see when you are busy and add meetings you agree (only if you connect them). Handles mailbox and calendar access and their content in transit (USA).
- Google (Google Analytics) — Website analytics on our public pages, only with your consent; never inside your workspace

- Brave — Web search for Opportunities (search terms only)
Our own internal systems also hold some data: support requests you escalate through Chat to us are logged in our operations system (the AIME Control Tower, hosted by OVHcloud in the UK), and billing records (business name, billing email, invoice lines) are kept in our customer and finance system (the AIME CRM, hosted by Hetzner in Finland, EU) and our accounting software (Xero). We also keep technical error reports from the web app (the page route, the error message and your browser family) for up to 90 days to help us find and fix bugs, under our legitimate interest in keeping the Service reliable; these stay in our own systems and are never shared with third parties. Services you choose to connect, such as Xero, Google or Microsoft, process data under your own agreement with them. We may also share data with our professional advisers, with a buyer if the business is sold, or where the law requires it.
