Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
1. Overview
Autonodal is a signal intelligence platform that builds proximity graphs from your professional network and surfaces market feeds so you can act on what matters. This policy explains how we collect, process, and protect your data.
2. Data We Collect
When you use Autonodal, we may collect the following categories of information:
- Account data — name, email address, authentication credentials
- Profile data — job title, company, professional context you provide
- Connection metadata — who you communicate with and how frequently
- Interaction metadata — timestamps, frequency patterns, communication channels
- Signals — RSS feeds, market data, and curated intelligence you subscribe to
3. Gmail Data — Proximity Extraction Only
When you connect your Gmail account, Autonodal extracts proximity signals only. This means we process:
- WHO — sender and recipient email addresses
- WHEN — timestamps of messages
- HOW OFTEN — frequency and recency of communication
We NEVER read, store, or process email subject lines, message bodies, or attachments. We extract mathematical proximity scores from metadata only.
4. Google Drive Data
When you connect Google Drive, Autonodal may access:
- File names and metadata for documents you explicitly select
- Text content of documents you explicitly choose to index
We NEVER access files you have not explicitly selected. We do not scan, index, or read any document unless you grant specific permission for that file.
5. Google Contacts Data
When you connect Google Contacts, we access:
- Contact names and email addresses
- Company and job title information
This data is used to enrich your proximity graph and help you understand the strength and nature of your professional relationships.
6. The Proximity-Only Model
Autonodal operates on a proximity-only extraction model. We perform local extraction of messaging metadata to build mathematical relationship scores. No content is ever read, stored, or transmitted.
The output is a set of proximity_scores that represent the strength and recency of your professional connections — not the substance of your communications.
We NEVER use message content for any purpose. Our model is architecturally incapable of reading your emails, messages, or documents unless you explicitly select them.
7. Huddle Collaboration
When you join a Huddle (collaborative workspace), the following applies:
- Only
proximity strength scoresare shared with other Huddle members - The
source_platformof a connection is never exposed to other users - You can detach from any Huddle at any time, cleanly removing your contributed data
8. Data Sharing
We do not sell your data. We do not use your data for advertising. We do not share your data with third parties for their marketing purposes.
We NEVER sell your data. We NEVER use it for advertising. Your data is yours.
We use the following infrastructure providers to operate the platform:
OpenAI— text embeddings for semantic searchQdrant— vector database for proximity and signal storageRailway— application hosting infrastructure
All providers are bound by data processing agreements and do not retain your data beyond processing.
9. Data Retention and Deletion
You may delete your account at any time from your account settings. Upon deletion:
- All personal data is marked for deletion immediately
- Data is permanently and irrecoverably deleted within 30 days
- Aggregated, anonymised statistics may be retained but cannot be linked back to you
You can also request deletion by emailing privacy@autonodal.com.
