Privacy Policy
Updated: December 7, 2023
SIG9 LLC (doing business as “Samwise AI” and together with our affiliates, referred to herein as “we,” “us,” or “our”) is dedicated to protecting the confidentiality and privacy of information entrusted to us. As part of this obligation, we are committed to the appropriate protection and use of personal information (sometimes referred to as “personally identifiable information” or “PII”) that has been collected by or provided to us through our websites, including https://samwiseai.com, web-based and mobile applications, meetings and events (in-person and virtual), communications, marketing materials and content and services that link to, post or otherwise refer to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Activities”).
Please review this Privacy Policy to learn more about how we collect, use, share, and protect the personal information we obtain. By engaging in the Activities (including using our online services), you consent to the collection and processing of your personal information as set forth in this Privacy Policy.
1. Collection and Use of Personal Information
We and our third-party providers (including service providers referred to in Sections 6.2 and 6.3) collect certain personal information you provide when you engage in any Activities. For example, when you sign up to use our Samwise AI service or attend an event, we may collect basic information about you such as your name, username, password, email address, mailing address, phone number, date of birth, and other personal demographic or contact information.
We use the personal information we collect (including through the automatic collection of personal information, as described in Section 1.1) to:
- (i) enable you to engage in the Activities;
- (ii) provide you with web-based and mobile applications;
- (iii) communicate with you;
- (iv) provide you with information about our products and services;
- (v) comply with applicable laws, regulations, and/or industry standards;
- (vi) operate, maintain, and enhance any of our Activities; and
- (vii) fulfill your specific requests.
For example, if you send us an email message requesting information about Samwise AI, we will use your email address and other personal information you supply to respond to your request. Your personal information is used only for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy unless we (1) obtain your express permission, (2) provide an additional privacy notice, or (3) as otherwise required or permitted by law.
In some cases where you have registered for or to use certain Activities, we may store your personal information temporarily until we receive confirmation of the information you provided via an email (i.e., where we send an email message to the email address provided as part of your registration to confirm a subscription request). Please note that your rights for any particular request, product, or service may be determined by the notice provided with such request, product, or service, and in the event of a conflict between this notice and that notice, the specific notice provided with the request, product, or service will control.
We only collect sensitive personal information when you voluntarily provide such information to us, you expressly permit us to use this information, or such information is required or permitted to be collected by law or industry standards. Sensitive personal information includes personal information regarding your race, ethnicity, political beliefs, trade union membership, religious or similar beliefs, physical or mental health, sexual orientation, or criminal record.
Please use your discretion when providing your sensitive personal information to us. Do not provide sensitive personal information to us or permit us to use such sensitive personal information unless you consent: (a) to our use of that sensitive personal information for business purposes; and (b) the transfer and storage of that sensitive personal information to and in our systems.
1.1 Automatic collection of personal information
In some instances, we and our third-party providers use cookies, web beacons, wayfinding technology, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Global Positioning System (“GPS”) technology and other technologies (including other location-based technologies) to automatically collect certain types of personal information when you engage in our Activities (i.e. our web-based or mobile applications), as well as through email or text messages we may exchange or through collaboration platforms. The collection of this personal information allows us to:
- (a) customize your online experience;
- (b) improve the performance, usability, and effectiveness of the Samwise AI Activities;
- (c) advertise and market the Activities;
- (d) measure the effectiveness of the Activities; and
- (e) generate and analyze statistics about your use of or engagement in the Activities.
1.1.1 IP addresses
An Internet Protocol (“IP”) address is a number assigned to your Internet-enabled device (including computers and mobile devices), whenever you access the Internet. It allows computers and servers to recognize and communicate with one another. IP addresses from which visitors appear to originate may be recorded for our information technology security and system diagnostic purposes. This information may also be used to maintain and improve the Activities and to generate and analyze statistics about the Activities and your engagement with them.
1.1.2 Cookies
Cookies may be placed on your Internet-enabled device whenever you engage in our online Activities. This allows our websites, applications or collaboration platforms to remember your device and serves several purposes.
For some of our online Activities, a notification banner may appear requiring your consent to collect cookies. If you do not provide consent, your device will not be tracked for marketing-related activities. A secondary type of cookie referred to as “user-input” cookies may still be required for necessary functionality. Such cookies will not be blocked using this notification banner. Your selection will be saved in a cookie and is valid for a period of ninety (90) days. If you wish to revoke your selection, you may do so by clearing your web browser’s cookies.
Although most web browsers automatically accept cookies, you may be able to choose whether to accept cookies via your web browser’s settings. You may also be able to delete cookies from your device. However, please be aware that if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to fully experience some of the features of our online Activities.
Below is a list of the types of cookies used as part of our online Activities; some of which will be deleted upon you closing your browser and some of which will persist for a longer period of time. If you have specific questions about those which persist after you close your browser or any other questions regarding how we use cookies, please contact us at support@samwiseai.com.
- Purpose
- Description
- Performance (i.e., User’s Browser)
- Our online Activities are built using common Internet platforms. These have built-in cookies which help compatibility issues (i.e. to identify your browser type) and improve performance (i.e. quicker loading of content).
- Security (i.e. Asp .NET) Cookies
- If you register for access to a restricted area, our cookies ensure that your device is logged for the duration of your visit. You will need your username and password to access the restricted areas.
- Site Preferences
- Our cookies may also remember your site preferences (i.e. language) or seek to enhance your experience (i.e. by personalizing a greeting or content). This will apply to areas where you have registered specifically for access or to create an account.
- Analytical
- We use several third-party analytics tools to help us understand how site visitors use our website. This allows us to improve the quality and content on www.SamewiseAI.com for our visitors. The aggregated statistical data covers items such as total visits or page views, and referrers to our website. Further details on our use of Google Analytics are described in Section 1.1.5.
- Site visitor feedback
- We may use a third-party survey tool to invite a percentage of visitors to our website to provide their feedback. Cookies are used to prevent visitors from being invited multiple times. The first cookie is set if the visitor is not invited to participate in the survey, and is used to ensure visitors are not invited after their first page view. The second cookie is set if the visitor is invited to participate in the survey, and is used to ensure the visitor is not invited again to participate for a period of ninety (90) days.
- Social sharing
- We use third-party social media widgets or buttons to provide you with additional functionality to share content from our online Activities to social media platforms and email. Use of these widgets or buttons may place a cookie on your device to make their service easier to use, ensure your interaction is displayed on webpages (for example, to update the social share count cache) and log information about your activities across the Internet and on our online Activities. We encourage you to review each provider’s privacy information before using any such service. Further details on our use of social media widgets and applications are described in Section 1.2.
Other third-party tools and widgets may be used on our websites or portions of certain online Activities to provide additional functionality. Depending on how you set your preferences in your browser and/or the cookie banner, use of these tools or widgets may place a cookie on your device to make their service easier to use and ensure your interaction is displayed properly.
Cookies by themselves do not tell us your personal information or otherwise identify you personally. You can manage cookies and delete cookies from Samwise AI using your browser settings. Browsers like Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari give you the ability to accept, reject, or delete cookies. Please use the help center for those browsers to learn more.
NOTE: BY ACCESSING, USING, OR ENGAGING IN OUR ONLINE ACTIVITIES, OR ENTERING YOUR LOGIN DETAILS TO ACCESS AREAS RESERVED FOR REGISTERED USERS, YOU AGREE THAT WE, OR A THIRD PARTY ACTING ON OUR BEHALF, CAN PLACE THESE COOKIES ON YOUR INTERNET-ENABLED DEVICE.
1.1.3 Interest-Based Advertising
We use “interest-based” ads, also known as “online behavioral advertising.” Interest-based advertising is advertising that is targeted to you based on your web browsing or app usage over time and across websites or apps. You have the option to restrict the use of information for interest-based advertising and to opt-out of receiving interest-based ads. We may partner with ad networks and other advertising providers (“Advertising Providers”) who serve ads on behalf of us and others on non-affiliated sites. Some of these third parties may use cookies and other technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services to deliver advertising based on your interests and preferences, as inferred from your browsing history. Some of these ads may be personalized, meaning that they are intended to be relevant to you based on information Samwise AI and our Advertising Providers collect about your visits to SamwiseAI.com and elsewhere over time.
To learn more about this type of advertising and how to opt-out of this form of advertising, you may either visit www.aboutads.info to opt-out of sites and services participating in the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) self-regulatory program, or visit www.networkadvertising.org/choices to opt-out of this form of advertising by members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). Note that electing to opt out will not stop advertising from appearing in your browser or applications, although it may make the ads you see less relevant to your interests. This opt-out works through cookies set on a particular browser, so if you delete cookies from a web browser, or use a different browser, you will need to opt out again.
Your choice to opt out on a particular browser or device will apply only to the collection and use of information from that particular browser or device. Opting out on a particular device will not opt you out of information collection on other devices, nor will it limit cross-device sharing on those other devices. If you use different browsers on a device or multiple devices, for each browser and device you wish to opt out, please opt out each device and browser separately at www.aboutads.info/choices.
1.1.4 Do Not Track
Our online Activities may not recognize web browser based “Do Not Track” signals. However, as discussed in Section 1.1.2, you may be able to modify your Internet-enabled device’s web browser settings to block all cookies, or to block “third-party” cookies. Cookies that we set on our online Activities are considered “first-party” cookies. Details on your ability to restrict or change the personal information that we may collect about you are listed below under the following sections of this Privacy Policy: Choice (Section 3), Access (Section 4), Additional Disclosures for California Residents (Sections 6) and Non-U.S. Data (Section 7).
1.1.5 Usage Analytics
We use third-party usage analytics tools as part of our online Activities, which may include Google Analytics, Google reCAPTCHA v3, and Microsoft Universal Event Tracking, and which may be subject to separate privacy policies. More information about how Google Analytics is used by Samwise AI can be found at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
To provide website visitors with more choice on how their data is collected by Google Analytics, Google has developed the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. The add-on communicates with the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js) to indicate that information about the website visit should not be sent to Google Analytics. The Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on does not prevent information from being sent to us or to other web analytics services.
Google reCAPTCHA v3, MS Universal Event Tracking – explain opt-outs.
If you have questions about other third-party usage analytics tools we use in order to determine how those services may collect and use your data, please contact our Privacy Officer at support@samwiseAI.com.
1.1.6 Web beacons
A web beacon is a small image file on a web page that can be used to collect certain information from your Internet-enabled device, such as an IP address, the time the content was viewed, the web browser type, and the existence of cookies previously set by the same server. Samwise AI only uses web beacons in accordance with applicable laws. Samwise AI or our third-party providers may use web beacons to track the effectiveness of third-party websites that provide us with marketing services or to gather aggregate visitor statistics and manage cookies.
You have the option to render some web beacons unusable by rejecting their associated cookies. In this case, the web beacon may still record an anonymous visit from your IP address, but cookie information will not be recorded.
In some of our online Activities (i.e. certain communications), we and third-party providers operating on our behalf, may monitor recipient actions such as email open rates through embedded links within the messages. We collect this information to gauge user interest and to maintain and improve our online Activities and such third-party services.
Please be aware that if you opt to render some web beacons unusable, you may not be able to fully experience some of the features of our online Activities.
1.1.7 Location-based tools
Samwise AI and our service providers may collect and use the geographical location of your Internet-enabled device (i.e. via tracking beacons, Bluetooth, or GPS) in connection with certain Activities, but only with your express permission. With respect to the collection of precise information about the location of your device, once you have consented to the collection you may adjust or withdraw this permission at any time by managing your “Location Services” preferences through your device’s settings. This location data is collected for the purpose of providing you with information regarding our Activities, products, and services which we believe may be of interest to you based on your geographic location, and to improve our location-based Activities, responses to requests, products, and services.
Please be aware that if you opt to exercise your right to alter, or altogether turn off, location-based services on your device, you may not be able to fully experience some of the features of our Activities.
1.2 Social media widgets and applications
Our online Activities may include functionality to enable sharing via third-party social media platforms (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn), or allow you to use your social media platform credentials to log into and access our online Activities. These social media platforms may collect and use personal information regarding your use of our online Activities (see details on “Social Sharing” cookies discussed in Section 1.1.2). Please be aware that certain personal information you provide via such social media platforms may be collected and used by the social media platform provider and such interactions are governed by the privacy policies of those providers. We do not have control over, or responsibility for, those companies, or their use of your personal information. If you do not agree to such social media platform terms or privacy policy, do not use such social media platforms.
In addition, our online Activities may feature blogs, forums, crowd-sourcing and other applications, or services (collectively, “Social Media Features”). The purpose of Social Media Features is to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and content. Any personal information you provide on any Samwise AI Social Media Feature may be shared with other users of that Social Media Feature (unless otherwise stated at the point of collection), over whom we may have limited or no control.
1.3 Children
Samwise AI understands the importance of protecting children’s privacy, especially in an online environment. Our Activities are not intentionally designed for or directed at children under the age of 13. It is our policy never to knowingly collect or maintain personal information about anyone under the age of 13, except as part of an engagement to provide professional or development services.
2. Sharing and transfer of Personal Information
We do not share personal information with unaffiliated third parties, except as stated in this Privacy Policy, including as is necessary for our legitimate business needs, to carry out your requests, to allow you to engage in our Activities, and to market our products or services, including in coordination with other service providers for joint-marketing purposes, as required or permitted by law or industry standards, or otherwise with your permission.
In some instances, Samwise AI may share personal information about you with various third-party providers working on our behalf. Although we expect all third parties with whom we contract to adhere to our business and security standards, we have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the privacy of your information when you access or use the services of such third-party providers through our websites, including how such third parties may access, obtain, collect, aggregate, transfer, disclose, use, trade, and/or sell your data. We encourage you to be cautious and to ask questions before you disclose your personally identifiable information to any third party.
Samwise AI may also disclose personal information in order to respond to lawful requests of government or law enforcement agencies, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements or where disclosure is required by applicable laws, court orders, or government regulations, or agency rules. In the event, ownership of Samwise AI (or an affiliate) or its assets change as the result of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, information owned or controlled by Samwise AI may be transferred to another entity. Information may also be shared in connection with the consideration, negotiation, or completion of a corporate transaction in which we are acquired by or merged with another entity or we sell, liquidate, assign or transfer all or a portion of our assets. These disclosures may also be needed for data privacy or security audits and/or to investigate or respond to a complaint or security threat.
Samwise AI does not sell personal information to third parties. Samwise AI and our third-party providers may use personal information in an anonymized form for research and development. This data does not identify you individually, but rather helps to identify trends in user preferences and behaviors. In addition, we may share de-identified reports on user demographics and traffic patterns, as well as de-identified information, with third parties.
Cross-Border Collection and Transfer.
We operate in a global marketplace and may transfer and/or store your information, in whole or in part, in the United States or in any other country where we operate or where our computer network is located. We may directly collect personal information from or about you if you are in a jurisdiction other than the United States to provide you with services associated with the Activities. Similarly, if you are in the United States, we may transfer the information we collect from or about you outside of the United States. Regardless of where you are, we may transfer certain personal information across geographical borders to other entities or persons who are affiliated with Samwise AI or to various third-party providers working on our behalf, or we may receive personal information in the United States or elsewhere transferred from another entity or person affiliated with Samwise AI or an unaffiliated third party.
Samwise AI and our service providers may also store personal information in a jurisdiction other than where you are based, and such jurisdiction may not provide the same level of protection for your personal information as your home country. By providing your personal information to Samwise AI or our service providers, you understand and consent to the fact that your personal information may be collected, transferred, and/or stored, in a jurisdiction other than your home country. Each entity and person affiliated with Samwise AI is required to safeguard personal information in accordance with its contractual obligations and data protection legislation applicable to its provision of services. If you are located outside of the United States, you may have additional rights as described in Section 7.
3. Choices
We may require you to provide certain personal information in order to receive additional information about our Activities. We may also ask for your permission for certain uses of your personal information, and you can agree to or decline those uses. If you opt-in for particular Activities (i.e. an online newsletter), you will be able to unsubscribe at any time by following the instructions included in each communication. If you decide to unsubscribe from an Activity, we will try to remove your personal information promptly, although we may require additional information or confirmation before we can process your request.
As described in Section 1.1.2, if you wish to prevent cookies from tracking you as you engage in our online Activities, you may be able to do so by changing your web browser settings on your Internet-enabled device. Note, however, that some portions of our online Activities may not work properly if you elect to refuse cookies. In addition, Section 1.1.3 provides information about how you can make choices around Interest-Based Advertising and the advertisements presented to you by our Advertising Partners.
4. Data Privacy Requests
If you have submitted your personal information to Samwise AI, you may have the right to request, under applicable law, that Samwise AI provide you with reasonable access to your personal information, update or correct any inaccuracies in your personal information, or delete your personal information, and, in any such event, Samwise AI will take all reasonable and practical efforts to comply with your request, so long as our doing so would be consistent with applicable law, Samwise AI’s contractual requirements, and/or the industry standards applicable to Samwise AI.
To make a Data Privacy Request, please contact us by:
- Submitting a Data Privacy Request through our webform; or
- Contacting our Privacy Officer at support@samwiseai.com.
5. Data security and integrity
We have and require our service providers to have security policies and procedures in place to help protect personal information from unauthorized loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. Despite our efforts, however, security cannot be guaranteed against all threats. We seek to limit access to your personal information to those who have a need to know and require those individuals to maintain the confidentiality of such information. We also make efforts to retain personal information only for so long as the information is needed for our professional, marketing, or analytic purposes or to comply with legal requirements, industry standards, or an individual’s request, or until that person asks that the information be deleted.

7. Non-U.S. Data
Samwise AI is based in the United States and does not direct our Activities to data subjects that are located outside of the United States. However, in certain circumstances, we do interact with or collect personal information about data subjects outside of the United States. In such circumstances, we typically collect personal information from data subjects outside of the United States through a direct collection of that information via our Activities. At times, personal information may be transferred from or to our contractors or an unaffiliated third party outside of the United States. Where this applies, we typically receive your personal information because it is necessary to perform a contract, to provide the Activities, or because of our legitimate interests. If we receive personal information transferred by a contractor or an unaffiliated third party, it would typically be pursuant to the appropriate foreign regulator-approved standard contractual clauses or based on another lawful basis. To know more about additional non-United States data subject notices and rights, please review our Notice of Processing.
By using the SAMWISE AI websites and/or submitting your personal identifiable information IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE ACTIVITIES, YOU CERTIFY THAT YOU MEET THE AGE AND OTHER ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR THE SITE AS SET FORTH IN OUR POLICIES, AND CONSENT TO COLLECTION, USE, DISCLOSURE, STORAGE, AND TRANSFER OF YOUR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION WITHIN AND OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES, THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA, SOUTH AMERICA, SWITZERLAND, CANADA, OR ANY OTHER NON UNITED STATES JURISDICTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS NOTICE.
8. Links to Other Sites
Please be aware that our Activities may contain links or refer you to other websites, applications, social media platforms, collaboration platforms, products and services maintained by affiliated entities or by unaffiliated third parties (collectively, “Other Sites”). Other Sites are not governed by this Privacy Policy, but by other privacy policies of those Other Sites which may differ from our Privacy Policy. Samwise AI is not responsible for the content or practices of these Other Sites. We encourage you to review the applicable privacy policies of these Other Sites visited before disclosing any personal information.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
Samwise AI may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect our current privacy practices. When we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will revise the “updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Policy to be informed about how Samwise AI is using and protecting your personal information. Your continued use after each such update constitutes your consent to such updated terms.
