We use trusted third-party service providers to operate Arcova, including providers for cloud infrastructure and database hosting, user authentication, collection of publicly available LinkedIn profile data, AI-powered analysis, web application hosting, and transactional email delivery. Payments are processed securely through Stripe.

Each provider processes only the minimum data necessary for its function and is bound by contractual data protection obligations. We do not sell your personal information to any third party.

4. Data Retention

We retain your account information and analysis results for as long as your account is active. LinkedIn profile snapshots used for analysis are stored to enable progress tracking across multiple analyses. You can request deletion of your data at any time.

7. European Privacy Rights (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area, you have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation, including the right to data portability and the right to restrict processing. Our legal basis for processing is your consent (provided when you submit your profile for analysis) and legitimate interest (to improve our service).

8. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS), encrypted database connections, and role-based access controls. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.
