This section applies when you connect Gmail to Autonomous. It supplements our website privacy policy and controls how we handle Google user data if another section of this policy differs.
Connecting Gmail is optional. With your permission, Autonomous can access your connected email address, message headers, senders, recipients, subjects, message bodies, and attachments. Google's read-only permission applies across your mailbox; it is not limited by Google to financial senders or documents. Our application uses that access for the Gmail features described here. This permission does not let us send, change, or delete your mail.
We use Gmail data to carry out searches you request, find financial statements, tax forms, and investment updates, and help you review and organize relevant information and documents in Autonomous. Connecting Gmail does not itself enable recurring scans. If you separately enable inbox checks, we read new messages to identify financial items that may need your attention. You can turn these checks off. Relevant attachments may be imported into your document vault, and information from them may be used in your financial records and conversations.
Message content, attachments, and information derived from them may be processed on our servers and by service providers that support hosting, document extraction, AI analysis, and service operation. This processing supports the Gmail features you request or enable, including summaries and financial document analysis. Google user data must not be used to train or improve general-purpose or shared AI models. We limit provider processing to the permitted purposes described in this section.
We store authorization tokens to maintain your connection, along with connection details and records of Gmail activity. Imported attachments, extracted financial information, findings, and relevant conversation content may be retained in Autonomous. We retain this information for the features you use and for applicable legal, regulatory, security, and recordkeeping needs. Retention depends on the type of record and those needs; disconnecting Gmail does not automatically delete information already imported or recorded.
You can disconnect Gmail in Autonomous to stop further access through that connection, or remove Autonomous's access in your Google Account's third-party connections settings. Turning off inbox checks stops recurring scanning but leaves the connection available for searches you request. To request deletion of Gmail data held by Autonomous, including imported documents and related records, contact hello@atg.science. We may need to verify your identity. We will explain any information that must be retained for legal or regulatory obligations; removing Google access alone does not delete these records.
Google user data is shared only as permitted by Google's Limited Use requirements: with your consent to provide the visible features you use, for security purposes, to comply with applicable law, or as part of a business transfer with your explicit prior consent. Human access is limited to your explicit agreement to review specific data, security needs, legal requirements, or aggregated and anonymized internal operations permitted by Google's policy. These restrictions also apply to information derived from Gmail.
We do not sell Google user data, use it for advertising, or use it to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes. These limits apply to Gmail data and information derived from it, even where other sections of this website policy describe broader uses of website information.
Autonomous's use of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
This Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand how Autonomous Technologies Group and its related organizations and affiliates (“ATG”, “we”, “us” or “our”), collects, uses and shares personal information collected through this website.

For example, we may use third parties to help us design and operate the Site, provide services to support the Site, help us analyze our data, or send information on our behalf about services and events in which you may be interested. Unless otherwise indicated at the time we collect your information, if we allow third parties to access the personal information we collect, we will have contractual provisions or other appropriate protections in place to ensure such access is for limited purposes and in compliance with this Policy. Specifically, we share your personal information with the following categories of third parties:
Related and Affiliated Organizations. We may share all of the personal information we collect about you with our affiliates and related organizations for use consistent with this Policy.

This section of our Policy describes how we and our business partners may collect and store information about you and your use of the Site through cookies and other tracking technologies.
What are Cookies? Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies set by the website are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website are called “third party cookies”. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality, such as advertising or website analytics, to be provided on or through the website. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer or device both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites and/or mobile apps.
What Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies do We Use? We use several different kinds of cookies on this Site, including strictly necessary cookies, which are cookies that are necessary for the Site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems; performance cookies, which allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Site; and functional cookies, which enable the Site to provide enhanced functionality and personalization.
Cookies are not the only way to track visitors to a website. We may use similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Sites. These technologies often depend on cookies to function properly, and so disabling cookies may impair their functioning. If you sign up to receive our e-mails, we may also use cookies in conjunction with these emails. When your browser downloads any graphic content in the e-mail, we will also place a cookie on your computer that will tell us if you come to our website at a later date.
In addition to our own cookies, we may collaborate with various third-party service providers who also use cookies to help us optimize our website, and to understand more about the visitors to our website. For example, we use PostHog to provide us with demographic information about our visitors and to help us analyze how people use our website. To learn more about how PostHog uses cookies, please click the link above or visit its website to view its privacy policy.
How Can You Disable Cookies and Other Tracking Technology? Depending on the type of browser and device that you use, you may have the ability to control the type of information that these tools use. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your computer or mobile device and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.com. Some Internet browsers also may be configured to send “Do Not Track” or “Global Privacy Control” signals to the online services that you visit. Because we do not engage in targeted advertising or other cross-contextual behavioral tracking, we currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” or similar signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
Third Party Sites and Services. The Site may contain links to other websites and services operated by third parties. These links are not an endorsement of, or representation that we are affiliated with, any third party. We do not control third party websites, applications or services, and we are not responsible for their actions. Other websites and services follow different rules regarding their collection, use and sharing of your personal information. We encourage you to read their privacy policies to learn more.
Security. The security of your personal information is important to us. We take a number of organizational, technical and physical measures that are designed to protect the personal information we collect. However, security risk is inherent in all internet and information technologies, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal information.
International Data Use and Cross-Border Transfers. We are located in the United States and have affiliates and service providers in other countries, and your personal information may be collected, used and stored in the United States or other locations outside of your home country. Privacy laws in the locations where we handle your personal information may not be as protective as the privacy laws in your home country. However, we will handle your personal information in accordance with this Policy regardless of where your personal information is kept. If you reside in other non-US jurisdictions, your use of the Site or provision of any personal information constitutes your consent for the transfer of such data to the United States for the purposes identified in this Policy. If you have questions about cross-border transfers, please contact us as detailed at the end of this Policy.
Verifying, Changing, and Deleting Your Information. You can contact us as detailed below and ask us to change, update or fix your information in certain cases, particularly if it is inaccurate. You can also request that we erase or delete all or some of your personal information or otherwise object to, limit, or restrict the use of such information (if we have no legal right or legitimate business interest in retaining such information).
Children. The Site is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 18, nor do we knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 18. If you are under 18, you should not attempt to use the Site or send any information about yourself to us.
We reserve the right to modify this Policy at any time. If we make changes to this Policy, we will post them on the Site and indicate the effective date of the change. If we make material changes to this Policy we will notify you by email or through the Site.
