1. Overview

Souvenir, Inc. ("Souvenir," "we," "us," or "our") operates the Souvenir platform at getsouvenir.com, a unified AI workspace that connects multiple large language models and AI services into a single interface with persistent context management, intelligent model routing, workflow automation, and organizational tools.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, store, and protect your personal information when you access or use our Services (as defined in our Terms of Service). It applies to all users of our Services in the United States, Canada, and India, and includes jurisdiction-specific disclosures for each.

By creating an account or using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent before processing your personal information.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide

• Account information: name, email address, password, and account credentials

• Inputs: prompts, files, images, instructions, and other content you submit to the platform ("Inputs")

• Workspace data: projects, workflows, saved context, Personas, Pins, and AI-generated outputs ("Outputs")

• Payment information: billing details processed by our payment processor, Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers, bank account details, or UPI IDs on our servers.

• Communications: support inquiries, feedback, and correspondence with us

2.2 Information Collected Automatically

• Device and browser information: type, operating system, screen resolution, and browser version

• IP address and approximate geographic location (country/region level)

• Usage data: features accessed, interaction patterns, session duration, and activity timestamps

• Log data: server logs including timestamps, error reports, referring URLs, and system activity. We use Sentry for error monitoring, which may capture request metadata and stack traces when errors occur.

• Cookies and similar technologies: as described in our Cookie and Tracking Disclosure Policy

• Approximate geolocation: we use ip-api.com to resolve your IP address to city, region, and timezone for localization purposes. Your IP address is transmitted to this third-party service.

2.3 Information from Third-Party Integrations

If you connect third-party services to your Souvenir account, we may access and process data necessary to enable those integrations, in accordance with the permissions you grant.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information for the following purposes:

• To provide, operate, and maintain the platform, including persistent context and memory across workflows

• To route your Inputs to appropriate AI models based on your settings or our auto-routing algorithm

• To process payments and manage your subscription

• To improve output quality, system performance, and user experience

• To support collaboration within shared workspaces and team accounts

• To respond to support requests, user inquiries, and feedback

• To monitor usage for abuse prevention, security, and enforcement of our Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy

• To comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, and protect our legal rights

• To send transactional communications (account confirmations, billing notices, security alerts)

We do not use your Inputs or Outputs to train our own AI models unless you explicitly opt in.

4. AI Models and Third-Party Data Processing

Souvenir integrates with multiple third-party AI model providers, AI services, and processing infrastructure. When you submit an Input, it may be transmitted to one or more of the following providers for processing. AI requests are routed through OpenRouter, a third-party middleware that directs your Inputs to the appropriate model provider.

Text and Chat Models (United States): OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, xAI / Grok

Text and OCR Models (France): Mistral AI

Search and Data Retrieval (Germany): Jina AI

Image Generation (Germany): Flux by Black Forest Labs

Text and Chat Models (People’s Republic of China): DeepSeek, Alibaba / Qwen, Moonshot AI / Kimi, ChatGLM / Zhipu AI — data may be processed and stored in China

AI Request Routing: OpenRouter (United States) — middleware service that routes your Inputs to the appropriate AI model provider

Vector Embeddings (United States): AWS Bedrock with Cohere embed-v4 — generates semantic embeddings from your content for search and memory features

Document Processing (United States): AWS Textract extracts text from uploaded documents and images via OCR. Mistral OCR API may also be used for document processing on certain plans. Local parsing (PyMuPDF, python-pptx) is performed on our servers.

Code Execution: User-submitted or AI-generated code may be executed in isolated Docker sandbox containers on our infrastructure in the United States.

Important Data Sovereignty Notice: When you select or are routed to DeepSeek, Alibaba/Qwen, Moonshot AI/Kimi, and ChatGLM/Zhipu AI, your Input data is transmitted to servers located in the People’s Republic of China. These providers may be subject to Chinese data access laws. You may disable China-based AI models (DeepSeek, Alibaba/Qwen, Moonshot AI/Kimi, and ChatGLM/Zhipu AI) at any time from your account Settings. When disabled, your data will not be transmitted to servers in the People’s Republic of China. Our auto-routing algorithm preferences US-based inference providers with Zero Data Retention (ZDR) enabled by default.

Each AI provider processes your data under their own terms and privacy policies. We share only the data necessary to fulfill your request. Under our API agreements with US- and Europe-based providers, your Inputs and Outputs are not used for model training. China-based providers may reserve the right to use inputs/outputs for model training under their own terms.

5. Data Storage and Retention

• Your data is primarily stored on Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure in the United States. User data, conversations, personas, memories, and document embeddings are stored in a PostgreSQL database with pgvector extension. Uploaded files and documents are stored in AWS S3.

• We store conversation history, context, memory, and workspace data to provide persistent functionality across sessions

• Data is retained for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Services

• You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting info@getsouvenir.com

• Upon account termination, we will delete your Materials within 90 days, except where retention is required for legal, security, or compliance purposes

• Session cookies are deleted upon logout or browser close

6. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data. We do not share your personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising.

We may share data in the following limited circumstances:

• With AI model providers: to process your Inputs and generate Outputs, as described in Section 4

• With service providers: including Stripe (payments), Auth0 (authentication), AWS (hosting, infrastructure, S3 storage, Textract OCR, Bedrock embeddings), OpenRouter (AI model routing), Cohere (vector embeddings via AWS Bedrock), Sentry (error monitoring — may capture request metadata and stack traces), ip-api.com (IP-based geolocation for localization), Mixpanel and Google Analytics (usage analytics), and email service providers (transactional communications)

• To comply with law: in response to valid legal process, court orders, subpoenas, or regulatory requests from authorities in the United States, Canada, or India

• To protect rights and safety: to enforce our Terms of Service, protect the security of users and the platform, or prevent fraud
