Last updated: February 17, 2026
Information We Collect
When you create an account, we collect basic account information such as your name, email address, organization name, and billing details. Billing information is processed securely by our payment provider and is not stored directly by Peridot.
Peridot also processes the research data you choose to upload or connect to the platform. This may include interview recordings and transcripts, support tickets, sales calls, survey responses, research goals, and study metadata. This content remains your data and is processed solely to provide the services described within the platform.
In addition, we collect limited technical and usage information such as feature usage, interaction logs, device and browser details, and error reports. This information helps us operate, maintain, and improve the reliability of the product. We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data unless it is included in the research content you upload.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information to provide and improve Peridot’s services. This includes analyzing uploaded content, generating insights and summaries, surfacing results aligned to your research goals, maintaining system performance, and providing customer support. We do not sell your data and we do not use your research content for advertising purposes. Your uploaded research data is used only within your workspace to deliver the functionality of the platform.
AI Processing
Peridot uses machine learning models to analyze uploaded content and generate insights. Your data is processed to extract themes, quotes, trends, and recommendations relevant to your research goals. We do not use your private research content to train public AI models. Outputs are generated within the context of your workspace and are not shared across customers.
Data Sharing
We share data only with trusted third-party service providers that help us operate Peridot, such as cloud hosting providers, infrastructure partners, analytics services, and payment processors. These providers are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations. We do not share your data with advertisers or unrelated third parties.
Data Security
We implement industry-standard security practices to protect your information. This includes encrypted data transmission, encrypted storage, access controls, and continuous monitoring for potential vulnerabilities. While no system can guarantee absolute security, we take reasonable and appropriate measures to safeguard your data.
Data Ownership and Control
You retain ownership of the research content you upload to Peridot. You may export your data, delete individual studies, or request full account deletion at any time. Upon account deletion, your data will be removed from active systems within a reasonable timeframe, subject to standard backup retention policies.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information, restrict certain processing activities, or request a copy of your data. If you would like to exercise these rights, you can contact us at support@askperidot.com
Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as necessary to provide our services. We may retain limited information for legal, security, or operational purposes as required by law.
Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our product evolves. If we make material changes, we will notify users through email or in-product notifications.
