AI Patent — Data Terms
Your invention details are sensitive. These rules apply before anything is published or shared.
Private by default
All technical content is private by default. Files are stored in a private bucket, scanned for malware, and checked by MIME type and magic bytes. Public verification returns only minimal fields: code, issuer, dates, policy version, key ID, signature result and registry status. Publishing anything more requires a separate, explicit publication consent.
AI processing
The application explains which data is sent to the AI provider for review. “AI is used” is not unlimited permission to share externally. Sending invention details to external search services is governed by a separate permission and contract.
What we never do
Private files are never placed in public search engines, analytics, public error logs, email subject lines or a public blockchain. No NFT is created as part of this service. One applicant is never shown another user's private file or details that reveal its existence.
Retention
Refunding a payment does not silently erase historical evidence; the audit trail is retained as the policy defines. Downloadable evidence packs and key history support continuity, but indefinite hosting is not guaranteed.
