Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 2026
Overview
ArtiProof is a research integrity platform. This page explains what we collect when you use the service, how we use it, and the controls you have over your data. We collect the minimum data needed to run analyses you request and to keep your account secure.
What we collect
- Account data — email, name, institution, and (for password sign-in) a hashed password. We never store your password in plain text.
- Submitted content — URLs, text, and PDFs you submit for verification. Stored with your account so you can re-open past reports.
- Analysis output — credibility scores, claim verdicts, AI-detection scores, and citation graphs derived from your submissions.
- Operational logs — request metadata (timestamps, status codes, IP for rate limiting). Retained for 30 days unless required for security investigation.
How we use it
Your submitted content and derived analysis are visible only to you, except when you generate a share link — those reports are accessible to anyone with the link until you revoke it. We do not sell user data and we do not use your submitted content to train models.
Third-party processors
Source verification calls Google’s Gemini API and Fact Check Tools. Citation analysis calls Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, CrossRef, and (when configured) Scopus. Submitted content is sent to these providers only as needed to perform the analysis you requested.
Your rights
You can export, correct, or delete your data at any time from Settings, or by emailing info@artiproof.com. Account deletion removes your submissions, analyses, and shared report links.
