Privacy Policy

Sosio Technologies Pvt Ltd (Operating as Fynman)

Last updated: December 16, 2025.

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Sosio Technologies Pvt Ltd, operating as Fynman (“we”, “us”, “our”), collects, uses, and protects information when you use our desktop software and website. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about our data practices.

Fynman is designed with privacy as a core principle. Our desktop software processes your research documents locally on your computer, and we do not have access to your research content.

Information We Collect

Desktop Software

The Fynman desktop application operates entirely on your local machine. We do not collect, store, or have access to:

  • Your research papers, documents, or PDFs
  • Your notes, annotations, or analysis results
  • Your AI queries or responses
  • Your API keys for third-party AI providers

The software does not transmit your research data to our servers or any third party. All document processing occurs locally on your device.

Website and Account Services

When you visit our website or create an account, we may collect:

  • Account Information: Email address and name when you register for an account or newsletter
  • Transaction Information: Payment details processed securely through Paddle.com, our Merchant of Record
  • Support Communications: Information you provide when contacting our support team
  • Usage Analytics: Anonymous website analytics including pages visited, browser type, and general location (country level)

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide and maintain our services
  • Process transactions and send related information
  • Respond to your support requests and communications
  • Send service updates and administrative messages
  • Improve our website and services
  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.

Third-Party Services

Payment Processing

We use a third-party payment provider to process transactions. When you make a purchase, your payment information is collected and processed securely by our payment provider in accordance with their privacy policy. We do not store your complete payment card details.

AI Provider Integration

When you use Fynman with external AI providers (such as OpenAI or Anthropic), you connect directly to their services using your own API credentials. We do not have access to your API keys, queries, or responses. Your use of these services is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms of service.

Analytics

We use analytics services to understand how visitors interact with our website. These services collect anonymous, aggregated data and do not track your individual research activities.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure.

For the desktop software, your data security is enhanced by local-only processing—your research documents never leave your computer unless you choose to use external AI services.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal information
  • Portability: Request transfer of your data to another service
  • Objection: Object to processing of your personal information
  • Withdrawal: Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected].

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

Account information is retained while your account is active. If you close your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal information within 30 days, unless retention is required by law.

International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

Children’s Privacy

Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.
