Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 1, 2025
Last updated: August 4, 2025

Dokai, Inc. ("Dokai," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information in connection with our software-as-a-service platform, websites, and related services (collectively, the "Services").

1. Scope and Roles

  • Customer-Provided Data (Processor role): When a customer uploads or generates content in their Dokai workspace, we act as a data processor/service provider and handle it only on the customer's documented instructions.

  • Sign‑in/Account Data (Controller role): For data we collect to operate accounts and our website (e.g., SSO name and email), Dokai acts as a data controller/business.

  • Third‑Party/Licensed Data (Controller role): For datasets we license or obtain from data providers ("Third‑Party Data") and make available to multiple customers pursuant to license terms, Dokai acts as a data controller/business for that dataset.

Important: 

  • Dokai does not use one customer’s data to train models or otherwise benefit other customers.

  • Users must follow authentication, access, and device security requirements as outlined in the AUP when accessing any data.

2. Categories of Information We Collect

A. Sign‑in & Account Data (you provide or your SSO provides)

  • Name (as supplied by your identity provider)

  • Business email address

  • Authentication and session metadata (e.g., login timestamps, SSO provider, IP address, user agent)

  • Organization and role (if supplied by your IdP)

B. Service & Security Metadata (collected automatically)

  • Device and browser information

  • Log files and diagnostic data

  • Usage events needed to maintain and secure the Services

C. Third‑Party/Licensed Data (shared across customers under license)

  • Business and professional information such as company names, domains, firmographics, technographics, role/function, inferred interests, and business contact information (e.g., work email patterns or business phone numbers) obtained from data providers and publicly available sources.

  • Some Third‑Party Data may be personal data (e.g., business contact information); we contractually require providers to collect and share such data lawfully and to honor opt‑out and deletion requests.

D. Support Communications

  • Content of support tickets, emails, and chats

3. How We Use Information

A. To provide and secure the Services

  • Provide core features, availability, and support

  • Monitor, prevent, and detect fraud or abuse; maintain security and integrity

B. To operate licensed data products (Third‑Party Data)

  • Curate, normalize, and deliver Third‑Party Data to multiple customers according to our and our providers’ license terms

  • Refresh and quality‑check records; deduplicate; maintain accuracy

  • Enforce usage restrictions (e.g., acceptable use, rate limits)

C. Communications

  • Send service, security, and transactional notices

We do not sell your Sign‑in & Account Data. We may license or otherwise provide access to Third‑Party Data to multiple customers as part of our Services; see Section 6 and the U.S. State Privacy Notice for opt‑out rights where applicable.

4. AI & Model Use

  • Dokai does not use Customer‑Provided Data to train, fine‑tune, or improve models for the benefit of other customers.

  • If we use third‑party model providers, we configure them to not retain prompts or outputs for training whenever the provider offers such controls. If a provider requires limited retention for abuse monitoring, we bind them by contract to confidentiality and restricted use.

  • We may use aggregate, de‑identified telemetry (not Customer‑Provided Data) to improve reliability and performance.

5. Sources of Information

  • You or your organization (e.g., via SSO)

  • Your device/browser during use of the Services

  • Data Providers and public sources for Third‑Party Data (e.g., official registries, corporate websites, professional profiles, licensed aggregators)

6. Disclosure of Information

We disclose information only as described below:

A. Service Providers / Subprocessors

We engage vetted vendors (e.g., hosting, authentication, logging, email delivery) under written agreements requiring confidentiality and adherence to data protection laws.

B. Customers (re: Third‑Party Data)

Subject to our licenses and acceptable‑use terms, we provide Third‑Party Data to multiple customers. Such disclosures are inherent to the product. Customers must use this data responsibly and lawfully and may be required to maintain their own suppression/opt‑out lists.

C. Legal, Safety, and Corporate Events

We may disclose information to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights/safety, or in connection with mergers, acquisitions, or financing.

We do not disclose Customer‑Provided Data to other customers. We do not sell Sign‑in & Account Data.
