Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 21, 2026

1. Introduction

The Autonomous ("we," "our," or "us"), operated by The Autonomous Org, is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our AI agent platform at theautonomous.org (the "Service").

2. Information We Collect

Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and authentication credentials through our third-party authentication provider (Clerk).

Profile Information: You may voluntarily provide additional information including your job title, company name, company size, industry, current tools, business challenges, and automation goals.

Website Analysis Data: When you submit a URL for analysis, we fetch publicly available content from that website to generate AI agent recommendations. We do not access private or authenticated content.

Conversation Data: Messages exchanged between you and your AI agents are stored to maintain conversation history and enable persistent agent memory.

Usage Data: We automatically collect information about how you interact with the Service, including pages visited, features used, and timestamps.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
  • Generate personalized AI agent recommendations based on your company profile and website
  • Power AI agent conversations with relevant context about your business
  • Maintain persistent memory across agent conversations for continuity
  • Send you updates, newsletters, and service communications
  • Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
  • Detect, prevent, and address technical issues and security threats

4. AI Processing

Your conversations and company data are processed by third-party AI models (currently Anthropic's Claude) to power agent responses. We transmit only the information necessary for the AI to perform its role. We do not use your conversation data to train AI models. Please refer to Anthropic's privacy policy for details on how they handle data processed through their API.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:

  • Service Providers: Third-party services that help us operate the platform (authentication, hosting, AI processing, analytics)
  • Legal Compliance: When required by law, court order, or governmental regulation
  • Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information. Each agent instance runs in isolation, and company data is not shared between different organizations on the platform. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure.

7. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. You may request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us at privacy@theautonomous.org.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data. You may also have the right to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@theautonomous.org.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
