6. User Data Ownership and Responsibility
6.1 Your Data Ownership
You retain complete ownership of all data collected, generated, or processed by you using the Materials, including but not limited to biometric data, sensor readings, and any derived analytics specifically attributed to you or generated from your direct input ("User Data"). NeuroPawn claims no ownership interest in your User Data and acknowledges your exclusive rights thereto, subject to the licenses you grant herein (e.g., for cloud-assisted processing).
6.2 Local Data Storage and Your Responsibility
NeuroPawn primarily designs its Software for local storage and processing of your User Data on your device. While NeuroPawn aims to minimize reliance on server-side storage of User Data, you acknowledge that NeuroPawn does not store, retain, or maintain permanent copies of your raw User Data on NeuroPawn servers or cloud infrastructure, except as explicitly outlined for temporary cloud-assisted processing (Section 8.2) or consented-to analytics (Section 6.5). All User Data primarily remains stored locally on your device and under your complete control. You are solely responsible for the backup, security, management, and appropriate use of your User Data, including compliance with all applicable data protection laws.
6.3 Temporary Processing and Data Flow
NeuroPawn may temporarily access and process your User Data solely to provide real-time functionality, such as live data visualization, immediate computational analysis, or feature enhancement. Such processing occurs only during active use sessions and is designed not to result in permanent storage or retention of your User Data beyond the immediate processing session. NeuroPawn employs industry-standard security measures for data in transit during such temporary processing.
6.4 Data Security Responsibility
You acknowledge and agree that you are entirely responsible for implementing appropriate security measures to protect your User Data on your device, including but not limited to device security, access controls, strong authentication, and data encryption. NeuroPawn provides no warranties or guarantees regarding the security of locally stored User Data on your device or any third-party systems you use.
6.5 Application Analytics Data
Separate from User Data, NeuroPawn may collect anonymized and aggregated application usage analytics data ("App Data") to improve the Software's performance, functionality, and user experience. App Data includes information such as feature usage patterns, error logs, performance metrics, device specifications, and general usage statistics. App Data does not include your User Data, any personally identifiable information, or any biometric information. Collection of App Data is enabled by default. You may opt out of App Data collection through the Software's settings at any time without affecting the core functionality of the Software. NeuroPawn will process App Data in accordance with its Privacy Policy.
You retain complete ownership of all data you collect using the Materials, such as biometric or sensor readings ("User Data"). NeuroPawn claims no ownership of your User Data.
Our Offerings are designed for your User Data to be stored and processed locally on your device. You are solely responsible for implementing appropriate security measures to protect your User Data stored on your device and for maintaining backups.
For a complete description of the types of data we process, our data handling architecture, and your choices regarding data collection, please review our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
7. Third-Party Integrations and Services
7.1 Third-Party Connections
The Software may provide functionality that enables you to connect to, integrate with, or share data with third-party applications, platforms, or services ("Third-Party Services"). Such integrations are provided for your convenience and are entirely optional. Examples include, but are not limited to, health platforms, cloud storage providers, or other analytical tools.
7.2 Third-Party Data Sharing and Your Risk
Any decision to connect to Third-Party Services or share your User Data with such services is made entirely at your discretion and risk. You acknowledge and agree that:
- NeuroPawn does not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy practices, terms of service, or security of Third-Party Services.
- Your interaction with and data sharing with Third-Party Services are governed solely by the terms of service and privacy policies of those respective services.
- You are solely responsible for reviewing the data handling practices of any Third-Party Service before connecting or sharing your User Data with them.
- NeuroPawn is not responsible for any issues, damages, losses, or liabilities arising from your use of or reliance on Third-Party Services, including but not limited to data breaches, loss of data, or any unauthorized access to your User Data by such services.
7.3 Disclaimers Regarding Third-Party Services
NeuroPawn makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, regarding Third-Party Services. NeuroPawn expressly disclaims all liability for any issues, damages, or losses arising from your use of or interaction with Third-Party Services.
8. Data Processing Architecture
8.1 Local Processing Priority
The NeuroPawn Software is designed to prioritize local processing of your User Data on your device. This design minimizes data transmission requirements and maximizes your control over your information while providing sophisticated analytical capabilities.
8.2 Cloud-Assisted Processing
When enhanced computational capabilities are required, or specific features necessitate it, NeuroPawn may provide access to cloud-based computational resources or algorithms. Such cloud processing is designed with privacy-preserving principles and operates under the following constraints:
- Data transmission is minimized to only what is necessary for the requested computation.
- Processing occurs in a stateless manner without permanent data storage on NeuroPawn's cloud infrastructure.
- Cloud resources do not retain copies of your User Data after processing completion, meaning data is processed "in-flight" and not persisted.
- All cloud processing adheres to industry-standard security protocols and encryption for data in transit and at rest during the processing window.
8.3 Processing Transparency and Control
NeuroPawn will provide clear indication within the Software when cloud-based processing is being utilized, allowing you to make informed decisions about your data processing preferences. You may be able to configure your Software settings to limit or disable certain cloud-assisted processing features if desired, though this may impact the functionality of certain features.
9. Third-Party Data Responsibilities
If you use the Materials to collect, process, or transmit data relating to third parties other than yourself — including, but not limited to, employees, research participants, study subjects, patients, or other individuals ("Third-Party Data") — you represent and warrant that you have obtained all necessary rights, consents, permissions, and authorizations required by applicable law, including but not limited to privacy and data protection laws, to collect, process, and share such Third-Party Data through the Materials.
You are solely responsible for:
- Ensuring full compliance with all applicable data protection, privacy, and related laws and regulations (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, PIPEDA), including, where applicable, obtaining explicit and informed consent from all data subjects.
- Providing appropriate privacy notices and disclosures to all data subjects regarding the collection, processing, and sharing of their Third-Party Data via the Materials.
- Maintaining adequate security measures for Third-Party Data under your control.
- Responding to data subject requests (e.g., access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing) and facilitating the exercise of data subject rights as required by law.
- Complying with any data breach notification requirements related to Third-Party Data under your control.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless NeuroPawn and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or in connection with your collection, processing, use, storage, or transmission of Third-Party Data through the Materials, or any breach of your obligations under this Section 9.
