PRESENCE OS PRIVACY & COOKIES POLICY

This policy (“privacy policy”) describes how Pixis and its affiliates (collectively “Pixis”, “we”, “our”, “us”) collect, use, share or otherwise process your personal information in relation to its website, applications, products, services, events, and experiences that reference this privacy policy. This Privacy Policy also applies to the Presence OS platform and related mobile applications, including any AI-enabled functionality, social media integrations, automated content generation tools, analytics dashboards, and publishing workflows made available through the Pixis Services (collectively, the “Services”). Certain features of the Services may process user inputs using artificial intelligence systems and automated technologies, including third-party AI model providers, in order to generate content drafts, insights, recommendations, analytics, or other outputs. You should familiarize yourself with this Pixis privacy policy because it establishes your rights and responsibilities as a User of our website, applications, products, and services.

This privacy policy applies to:

  • visitors of our website located at https://pixis.ai/ (“website”), who view only publicly available content (“visitors”);
  • users of Pixis’s software platforms, dashboards, mobile applications, and related documentation (“platform users”) provided through our websites and applications ( “Pixis services”);
  • end users interacting with content, communications, or social media posts created or published using the Pixis Services;
  • and any user, which includes visitors, platform users, end users, and any individual or an entity who visits the Platform or avails or who wishes to avail the Pixis Services (“user” or “you”).

For certain products such as Presence OS, Pixis may process user inputs submitted through the platform, including text prompts, voice inputs, uploaded files, social media account information, and related metadata in order to generate AI-assisted outputs, analytics, or recommendations.

Pixis Services are designed for businesses and are not intended for personal/ individual use. We, hence treat most individuals who contact us about our services, including all visitors (except visitors who are end users) and Platform Users, as individuals acting as business representatives rather than in their personal capacity. To the extent we process the personal information of end users, we do so in our capacity as a service provider/processor in pursuant of the contractual arrangements with our business customers that may include the advertiser, publisher, and/or their agents who are the data controllers of your data and who may use this information for their lawful advertising purposes to provide you with a more tailored online advertising experience.

This privacy policy has been designed with these key principles in mind:

  1. To set out the required disclosures about the way we use information that you share with us as visitors, platform users, and end users.

  2. To ensure that you understand what information we collect with your permission, what we do, and, most importantly, what we do not do with that information.

  3. To assume responsibility for protecting your rights and your privacy under this policy.

Highlights of what the privacy policy covers:

  1. The use of cookies and other tracking technologies.

  2. The transfer of your information outside of the country where you live.

  3. The collection, use, processing, and retention of your information by the entities described in this privacy policy, including Pixis, as Data Controller (where applicable), as indicated at the bottom of this document.

1. Information we collect/receive

In general, there are three categories of information we collect:

  1. information that we can use to provide additional features and improved experiences if you choose to share that information;

  2. information that we must have for you to use the Pixis Services; and

  3. information collected from your interaction with the Pixis services.

This Personal Information includes, but is not limited to, name, email id, address, contact number, organization name, job title, account credentials, and business contact details. For certain Pixis platforms, including Presence OS, Pixis may also collect user inputs submitted through the platform, including text prompts, uploaded documents, draft content, voice inputs, or other content provided by users for processing through the Services (“User Inputs”). Where voice input functionality is enabled, Pixis may process audio inputs using speech-to-text technologies in order to convert spoken input into text for use within the Services.

Where users connect third-party accounts to the Services (for example, social media platforms such as LinkedIn), Pixis may receive account identifiers, authentication tokens, profile metadata, and other information necessary to enable the requested integrations and publishing functionality.

2. How we use that information

Information we collect may be transferred, stored, used, and/or processed as follows:

Contact information: When you contact us through the ‘Contact Us’, ‘Book A Demo’, ‘Get Access’, and ‘Subscribe’ buttons on the website, register for a Pixis-sponsored marketing event either using a landing page or event management provider, or become a platform user of the Pixis services, you will be asked to provide us with certain personal information about yourself. This may include your name, email address, name of your organization, or contact number.

Where users interact with AI-enabled features within the Pixis Services, including Presence OS, Pixis may process user inputs and related data through automated systems and artificial intelligence models in order to generate draft content, insights, analytics, recommendations, or suggested outputs. Such processing may involve the use of third-party artificial intelligence model providers, speech-to-text services, analytics providers, and cloud infrastructure providers that support the functionality of the Services. Pixis uses such providers solely to enable the requested services and requires such providers to implement appropriate safeguards designed to protect personal information.

Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies: Pixis may use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to support the operation and functionality of the Services. These technologies may be used for purposes including authentication, session management, security monitoring, analytics, and improving user experience.

How long we retain specific personal information varies depending on the purpose for its use, and we will delete your personal information in accordance with applicable law(s). Pixis will also retain user activity data for internal analysis purposes.
