By using Slixy, you consent to having your inputs, prompts, uploads, recordings, usage data, educational activity, search queries, selected media references, and technical information transmitted to and processed by these third-party services where necessary to provide the Service. Slixy is not responsible for the data policies, availability, or output reliability of third-party services.

We use cookies, tokens, analytics scripts, and browser-based tracking tools to authenticate users, manage sessions, remember preferences, collect usage metrics, improve functionality, measure reliability, and protect the Service from abuse.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Some features may be limited or unavailable if cookies are disabled.

We may share information with:

• Service providers who help us operate, host, secure, analyze, improve, and support the Service.
• Schools, instructors, administrators, or institutions associated with your account, where the Service is provided through an educational or organizational setting.
• Professional advisors, including lawyers, auditors, insurers, accountants, and consultants.

• Successors in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, sale of assets, or similar business transaction.

We do not sell personal information in the ordinary sense of exchanging it for money. We do not knowingly sell personal information of children.

Where the Service is accessed through a school, language program, tutoring program, company, or academic institution, that institution may receive limited analytics, reports, rosters, participation data, or anonymized usage information for educational monitoring, classroom support, compliance, or administrative purposes.

The institution is responsible for obtaining any required student, parent, faculty, staff, or participant consents and for complying with laws that apply to its use of the Service.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These safeguards may include encryption, access controls, logging, secure development practices, and vendor review.

No system is fully secure. In the event of a security incident involving your information, we will notify affected users or institutions in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

We retain user information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, to provide the Service, to comply with legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce agreements, to prevent fraud or abuse, and to maintain legitimate business records.

Upon account termination or deletion request, we will delete or anonymize personal information unless we are legally required or permitted to retain it. Anonymized logs or usage metrics may be retained for internal improvement, research, analytics, security, or statistical purposes.

Anonymized, aggregated, and de-identified interactions with the Service may be used to evaluate and improve Slixy features, prompts, AI-assisted workflows, educational content, classroom tools, reliability, and product quality.

We do not intentionally use personally identifiable student content to train public AI models without explicit opt-in or another lawful basis. Third-party AI providers may process inputs and outputs as service providers to generate the features you request.

Your information may be processed in Canada, the United States, or other jurisdictions where we or our service providers operate. These jurisdictions may have privacy laws that differ from those in your location.

Where required, we use reasonable safeguards designed to protect personal information transferred across borders.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of your personal information. These rights may be subject to legal exceptions, identity verification, institutional account rules, or retention obligations.

You may request help with privacy rights by contacting us through the support contact made available in the Service.

The Service is not directed to individuals under 13 years of age or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction unless the Service is being used through an authorized school, institution, parent, guardian, or administrator with all legally required permissions.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate authorization. If we become aware that information was collected from an underage user without required consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete or restrict that information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updated versions will be posted through the Service or otherwise made available. Your continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised Privacy Policy, unless applicable law requires additional consent.
