Your data rights

Under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018

The short version

Capitalizt Ltd (company number 16890768, registered at 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX) is the data controller. You have real rights over the data we hold about you, and we will answer any request within thirty days.

Seeing what we hold

You may ask for a copy of everything we hold about you. That includes your account details, information about your messages, who your guardians are, and your payment history.

Including the messages themselves

It also includes what you actually wrote. We hold the key, so we are able to decrypt your messages and give them back to you, and we will.

This page previously said the opposite. It was wrong, and it was wrong in the one place where being wrong meant refusing you something you are entitled to.

Correcting it

If anything we hold about you is wrong or incomplete, you can have it put right. Most of it you can change yourself in your account. For anything else, write to us.

Deleting it

You may ask us to delete your data. We will remove your account, your messages, and your payment records, except where the law requires us to keep financial records for a period.

Please be certain before you ask. Once a message is deleted it is gone, and nobody can bring it back, including us. If it was written for somebody who has not yet received it, they never will.

Limiting what we do with it

You can ask us to hold your data but stop using it. If you tell us something we hold is inaccurate, we will stop using it while we check.

Taking it elsewhere

You may have your data in a structured, commonly used, machine readable format, and we will send it directly to another service where that is technically possible.

Objecting

Where we rely on legitimate interests, you may object. We will stop unless we can show compelling grounds that override your interests and rights.

If you are under eighteen, or acting for someone who is

A young person has every one of the rights on this page, and can use them themselves. An adult with parental responsibility may also use them on their behalf.

A request to delete a young person’s data is actioned straight away rather than at the end of any retention period. We hold a declared date of birth and one adult’s name and email address, and nothing else. We do not profile children and we do not market to them.

Why we are allowed to hold it at all

Four reasons, depending on the data. To do what you paid us to do. Our legitimate interest in keeping the service working and secure. Legal obligations, mainly financial records. And your consent, for anything optional, which you can withdraw whenever you like.

Where it lives

Within the European Economic Area. If anything is ever transferred outside it, we put appropriate safeguards in place, such as the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

How to ask

Email hello@inamber.ai and put “Data rights request” in the subject line. We will check you are who you say you are and reply within thirty days. If a request is complicated and we need longer, up to sixty days, we will tell you inside the first thirty.

If we get it wrong

You can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK supervisory authority for data protection. Tell us first if you would like us to try to put it right, but you do not have to.
