We believe in open source and privacy by design. We do not share your data, and all AI models, analytics, and data processing are securely hosted in Switzerland.
1. Introduction
LegalLens Ltd. ("LegalLens," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with Swiss data protection laws, including the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where applicable, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights concerning your personal information when using our services.

5. Data Security
We take appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect personal data from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse, including:
- All data is encrypted in transmission.
- Secure storage with limited access to authorized personnel.
- Regular security audits and compliance checks.
While we strive to protect your data, no online service can guarantee absolute security. Users are responsible for maintaining the security of their account credentials.
We retain your personal data as long as necessary to provide our services and fulfill legal obligations (e.g., 10 years for financial records). You can request deletion of your account at any time.
6. Your Data Protection Rights
Under Swiss and European data protection laws, you have rights regarding the access, correction, deletion, and portability of your personal data, as well as the ability to object to or restrict its processing. LegalLens ensures that all user rights are protected in compliance with applicable regulations.
To exercise your rights, contact us at timothy@legal-lens.ch. We may require identity verification before processing requests.
7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use Umami Analytics (no cookies, no personal identifiers) to understand website traffic, account management and security purposes. No third-party cookies or external tracking services are used. All data remains local, and no personal information is shared with third parties.
8. Payment Processing via Stripe
To process payments securely and efficiently, we use Stripe, a third-party payment service provider. When you make a purchase or subscribe to a paid plan, your payment details (such as card number, expiration date, and billing address) are transmitted directly to Stripe.
We do not store or process your full payment information on our servers.
Stripe acts as a data processor on our behalf and complies with both the Swiss FADP and the GDPR. All payment transactions are encrypted, and Stripe is certified to the PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard).
For more information about how Stripe handles your personal data, please refer to Stripe’s Privacy Policy.
9. Children’s Privacy
LegalLens is not intended for individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that a minor has provided personal data, we will take steps to delete it.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Any significant changes will be communicated via email or platform notifications. The latest version will always be available on our website.
