What we do with your document text

When you paste a document and click "Explain my contract," the text is sent from your browser to our server, which forwards it to Google's Gemini API for analysis. The response is returned to your browser and rendered on the page. We do not write the document text to a database, log file, or any persistent storage on our end.

Because the analysis is powered by Gemini's free tier, Google's own terms may allow that request content to be used to improve their models. If you're pasting something sensitive, consider removing names, account numbers, or other identifying details first, or wait until we move to a billed tier with stricter data-use terms (we'll update this page if that changes).

What we do collect

We keep lightweight, aggregate usage statistics so we can understand how the tool is being used and improve it. This includes things like:

• The number of times the page has loaded (a raw page-view count, not unique visitors)
• Which sample document (if any) was clicked, and how many times "Explain my contract" was clicked with valid input
• The number of analyses run
• Which document types are most common (e.g. "Residential Lease," "Freelance Contract")
• Whether an analysis was marked helpful, one tap from a fixed list of "what could be better" options, and one tap from a fixed list of "would you actually use this" options — no free text is ever collected
• Average document length
• Error and rate-limit rates

None of this includes your document text, your name, or any other personal identifier. We can't tell which analysis belonged to which visitor.

Waitlist, Contact, and Feedback forms

This is different from document analysis, and worth calling out separately. If you fill out the waitlist, contact, or feedback forms, you're intentionally giving us information — like your name, email, company, or a message — so we can respond to you or keep you updated. That submission is stored in our own database so we can read and reply to it; it is not discarded the way document text is.

• We only use it to respond to your request, keep you posted on product updates you opted into, or act on the feedback you shared.
• We don't sell it, and we don't use it to train any AI model.
• It's visible only to the small team running Trothix — it isn't routed through a third-party form processor.
• You can ask us to delete your submission at any time by emailing us through the Contact Us page and referencing the email address you submitted with.

IP addresses

Your IP address is used momentarily, in memory, to enforce a rate limit (so one visitor can't overwhelm the service) and is not stored or logged alongside your document text.

Cookies and tracking

We don't use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. We don't run third-party analytics scripts that build a profile of you across other sites.

Is this legal advice?

No. Trothix is an AI tool that flags things worth a closer look — it isn't a lawyer and doesn't provide legal advice. For anything with real consequences, have a licensed attorney review the document.

Changes to this policy

If how we handle data changes — for example, if we introduce accounts or move to a paid AI tier with different data-use terms — we'll update this page.
