Privacy Policy

How AskBenji handles your information.

The Short Version

We don’t store your documents

Your files are processed in memory and never saved to disk. We cannot access your documents after analysis.

We don’t sell your data

We have no advertisers, no data brokers, no third-party analytics. Your information is yours alone.

We delete everything

Temporary files auto-delete within 24 hours. Saved results expire after 48 hours. Emails are deleted after 90 days.

What We Collect

During Analysis (ephemeral)

  • Document text extracted from your upload — processed in memory, never stored

  • LLM API calls to analyze your document — sent to your chosen provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google), subject to their privacy policies

  • No PHI is stored in our database at any point during analysis

If You Save Results (optional)

  • Your email address (encrypted at rest)

  • Your analysis results (stored for 48 hours, then permanently deleted)

  • We send exactly one follow-up email asking about your outcome — no marketing, no newsletter

Automatic

  • Anonymous rate limiting data (IP address hash, not stored permanently)

  • Basic error logs for debugging (no PHI, no document content)

What We Don’t Collect

We never collect: Social Security numbers, full insurance member IDs, credit card numbers, passwords, or any information beyond what you voluntarily share in your uploaded document.
