This policy is written to align with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act). Under the Act, DealIQ (through LivingIQ) acts as a Data Fiduciary — the entity that determines how and why your personal data is processed.
By using DealIQ, you consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described in this policy. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us — this may mean you can no longer use parts of the Service that depend on that data.
To create your account: your phone number (used for OTP login via Twilio).
When you submit a deal for analysis: whatever details you choose to enter — job offer terms, business deal terms, or asset details.
When you unlock a report: your name and email, used to create the payment record and receipt via Dodo Payments.
Automatically: standard technical logs for debugging and reliability.
| Service | Purpose | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Anthropic (Claude API) | Runs the AI analysis | Deal details you submit, via your own API key |
| Dodo Payments | Processes payments | Name, email, payment details |
| Twilio | Sends OTP login codes | Your phone number |
| Neon | Database hosting | All data described above, at rest |
A DealIQ report is accessible via a unique link without requiring login to view it, by design, so you can share it. Anyone with the link can view the free-tier content. Don't share a link if it contains information you don't want a third party to see.
You have the right to access, correct, or erase your data, nominate someone to act on your behalf, withdraw consent, and file a grievance. Contact us to exercise any of these rights.
Report content — the deal details you submitted and the resulting analysis, including any negotiation copilot conversation — is automatically deleted after a set period:
Before deletion happens, we email you a full copy of the report's content, so you have a permanent record. This check runs whenever a report is actually viewed (yours or ours), rather than on a fixed schedule — a report that's never revisited may take longer to expire in practice, though we also periodically review and clear old content manually.
After content is deleted, your report code and payment record (if any) are kept — this lets your report link show a clean "expired" notice instead of an error, and lets us meet our own tax/legal recordkeeping obligations. The underlying deal details, analysis, and any copilot conversation are genuinely gone, not just hidden.
Requesting earlier deletion: you can ask us to erase your data before its automatic expiry date at any time — contact us to make this request. Depending on your account history, we may need to verify your identity before completing an erasure request.
One honest limitation: if you've only ever used the free tier and never attempted to unlock a report, we have no email address on file for your account (our login is phone-based only), so we're unable to send the pre-deletion notice email in that case — deletion still happens on schedule regardless.

We take reasonable technical measures to protect your data. In the event of a personal data breach likely to affect you, we will notify you and the relevant authority as required under the DPDP Rules.
DealIQ is not intended for users under 18.
We may update this policy from time to time, reflected by updating the date above.
