Privacy policy

Effective Date: 9. 10. 2024

This Privacy Policy explains how Steer ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our macOS SaaS app (the "App"). By using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.


1. Information We Collect

When you use the App, we collect and process the following types of information:

  • Text Data: The text you select and choose to rewrite is temporarily sent to OpenAI’s GPT API for processing and returned to you in its rewritten form.

  • Personal Information: We may collect personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, and payment details when you create an account or subscribe to our services.

  • Usage Data: We collect basic usage data, such as the number of text requests, to improve our service.


2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • Text Processing: To send your selected text to OpenAI's GPT API for rewriting and return the result to you.

  • Account Management: To manage your account, billing, and provide support.

  • App Improvement: To analyze usage trends and improve the functionality and performance of the App.

  • Communication: To send updates, offers, or respond to your queries.


3. Sharing Your Information

  • OpenAI: The text you select is shared with OpenAI’s API for rewriting. OpenAI’s privacy practices apply to the processing of your data while interacting with their API.

  • Service Providers: We may share your information with third-party providers who help us operate the App (e.g., payment processors, hosting services). These providers only have access to the necessary data to perform their tasks on our behalf and are obligated to protect your information.

  • Legal Compliance: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid legal requests.

We retain personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. Text submitted for rewriting is not stored after the result is returned to you.


5. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access or disclosure. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
