Privacy Policy

Effective Date: June 5, 2025

At Secria, your privacy is our highest priority. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our platform and services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to provide our services effectively and securely. This may include:

1.1 Account Information

What We Collect:

  • When you register for an account, we collect your email address, name, and any other details you choose to provide (e.g., username).

Why We Collect It:

  • To create and manage your user account, facilitate secure communication, and provide customer support.

This data is never sold.

1.2 Usage Data

What We Collect:

We collect only the data you provide when logging in. This includes your account name, selected subscription plan, login timestamps, and message transmission times.

Why We Collect It:

To operate the service, maintain account functionality, and troubleshoot any issues that may arise.

Privacy Note:

We do not collect IP addresses, device fingerprints, browser details, or background telemetry. No data is sold, tracked, or shared for marketing. All collected usage data is minimal, user-provided, and limited strictly to what's needed for core functionality.

1.3 Content Data

What We Collect:

Secria does not collect or access the content of your messages. All message content is secured using end-to-end and zero-knowledge encryption, making it technically inaccessible to us at any point—whether in storage or transit.

If You Share Logs:

In rare cases where you explicitly provide debug logs for support, those may include limited metadata or diagnostic data but never message content. This is entirely voluntary and used solely to resolve technical issues.

Why We Collect Diagnostic Data (When Shared):

Only to operate and troubleshoot the service effectively, in situations where you've chosen to involve us. We do not and cannot access message content, even under legal request.

Encryption:

We use end-to-end encryption and a zero-knowledge architecture to ensure your communications remain private, secure, and unreadable to anyone but you and your verified contacts.

1.4 Payment Information

What We Collect:

  • If you subscribe to premium services, our payment processors collect billing details such as credit card information or payment account details on our behalf.

Why We Collect It:

  • To process subscriptions or other transactions.

Note: Secria does not store your full payment information directly; we rely on trusted third-party payment processors that comply with industry standards (e.g., PCI DSS).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Operate and Provide Services: Facilitate secure messaging, account management, and user support.
  • Improve Our Services: Analyze platform usage and performance to enhance security features, develop new functionalities, and optimize user experience.
  • Communicate With You: Send important updates, security alerts, or administrative messages.

Legal Compliance & Security:

  • Comply with applicable laws, court orders, or governmental requests.
  • Prevent, detect, and investigate fraudulent or unauthorized activities.

3. Sharing Your Information

3.1 Service Providers

We may share your data with trusted third-party vendors (e.g., payment processors, cloud hosting) solely to help us operate our platform.

These vendors are contractually required to implement adequate safeguards and only process your data in accordance with our instructions.

3.2 Legal Compliance

We may disclose your data if required to comply with applicable laws, respond to a court order, or other legal process, or to protect our rights and property.

If we receive a law enforcement request for user data, we only disclose the minimal information necessary to comply, in keeping with our legal obligations.

3.3 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity. You will receive notice of any significant changes in ownership or data practices.

3.4 No Data Selling

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or to comply with legal obligations.

For inactive accounts (e.g., no login activity for 2+ years), your data may be deleted in accordance with our data retention and backup policies.

In certain regulated contexts (e.g., financial or legal requirements), we may keep relevant records longer, but only to meet those specific obligations.

5. Security Measures

We implement rigorous security measures to protect your information, including:

  • State-of-the-art encryption for data in transit and at rest
  • Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
  • Strict access controls for internal systems
  • Continuous monitoring for unauthorized access attempts

User Responsibility: While we strive for the highest level of security, no system is foolproof. We urge you to protect your account credentials and private keys and to use caution when sharing information online.

6. Your Privacy Rights

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

  • Access to your personal information
  • Correction of inaccurate information
  • Deletion of your information
  • Restriction or objection to certain processing activities
  • Data portability

To exercise these rights, please contact us at hq@secria.me.

7. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn we have collected information from a child under 16, we will delete that information.

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Purpose:

  • Maintain session security and prevent unauthorized access.
  • Collect usage statistics to improve service functionality.

Your Control:

You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or notify you before accepting them. However, blocking cookies may limit certain features or functionality of our services.

9. International Data Transfers

Secria operates globally. Your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your own, which may have different data protection laws.

We ensure that appropriate safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses, encryption) are in place to protect your information during such transfers.

10. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time.

Notice of Material Changes: If we make significant updates, we will notify you via in-platform alerts, email, or other prominent means.
