Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services to provide our platform:

These services have their own privacy policies and data handling practices. We recommend reviewing their policies to understand how your data may be processed.
AI Model Training
We do not use customer data for AI model training. Your field boundary data, imagery selections, and project information are used solely for providing the service to you. We do not train or improve our AI models using your specific data.
Your Rights and Choices
- Access: You can view and export your field boundary data at any time
- Correction: You can edit your project and field information through the application
- Deletion: You can delete projects and fields through the application (deleting a project removes all associated farms and fields)
- Portability: Export your data in GeoJSON or Shapefile formats
- Model Training Opt-out: We do not use customer data for model training. Contact us if you have concerns about data usage
Data Retention
We retain your data for the following periods:
- Account Data: Retained while you have active projects (no full account deletion currently available)
- Field Boundaries: Until you delete the specific project or field
- Imagery Captures: Processed and stored temporarily for service provision
- Usage Analytics: Aggregated and anonymized for service improvement
International Data Transfers
Your data may be processed and stored in countries other than your own, including the United States where Google Cloud Platform operates data centers. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for international data transfers.
Children's Privacy
Our service is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16.
