Privacy Policy for Step

Effective Date: 9/25/24

Introduction

Step is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, share, and safeguard your information when you use our AI chatbot app ("the App"). By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Calendar Data (Optional):
With your explicit consent, we may request access to your device's calendar data. This data is used to enhance your interaction with the chatbot, allowing us to provide more tailored responses. You can choose not to grant access to your calendar, and the chatbot will still function without it.

1.2 Chatbot Conversations:
All conversations you have with the chatbot within the App are collected and shared with OpenAI, a third-party service, to generate appropriate responses and enhance your experience. This includes both the questions you ask and the responses generated by the chatbot.

2. How We Use Your Information

2.1 Calendar Data:
If you choose to provide access to your calendar data, this information may be used in API requests to OpenAI to provide you with more relevant and contextual responses in your interactions with the chatbot. It is also used for scheduling follow ups.

2.2 Conversations:
The conversations you have with the chatbot are shared with OpenAI solely for the purpose of generating responses and improving the overall chatbot experience. We do not use your conversation data for any other purpose.

3. Data Sharing

3.1 Sharing with OpenAI:
We share the data you provide, including calendar data (if you consent) and conversation content, with OpenAI to generate responses within the chatbot. We ensure that OpenAI complies with applicable privacy laws and policies.

3.2 No Sale of Data:
We do not sell your personal or sensitive data to third parties for monetary consideration.

4. Data Security

We take the security of your data seriously and implement modern encryption methods, such as HTTPS, to transmit data securely. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

5. Your Rights and Choices

5.1 Consent and Permissions:
Before accessing your calendar data, the App will request your explicit consent. You have the right to grant or deny this permission. Your chatbot conversations are automatically shared with OpenAI to generate responses; by using the App, you consent to this data sharing.

5.2 Withdrawal of Consent:
If you have granted access to your calendar data and wish to withdraw your consent, you can do so by adjusting the app's permissions through your device settings. Please note that this may affect the chatbot's ability to provide certain features.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will revise the "Effective Date" at the top of this Policy. Your continued use of the App after any changes signifies your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
