Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 19, 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how Visual collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website and the Visual product. It also describes your rights and choices.
Information we collect
The information we collect depends on how you use Visual. We collect information you provide directly, information collected automatically, and information we process to provide the service.
- Account information: name, email address, authentication identifiers, and profile photo (if provided by your identity provider).
- Team and workspace info: team name, membership, roles, and workspace settings.
- Content you create: visualization names, descriptions, dashboards, presentations, posts, annotations, and sharing settings.
- Prompts and messages: questions you ask, follow-up messages, and other input you submit to generate analyses and charts.
- Uploaded files: files you upload (such as CSVs) and derived metadata like row counts and column types.
- Data source configuration: connection details you provide for databases or warehouses. We recommend using read-only credentials.
- Usage and diagnostics: product usage events, device/browser metadata, crash reports, and performance metrics.
How we use information
- To provide and operate Visual, including creating visualizations and running queries you request.
- To secure the platform, prevent abuse, and monitor reliability.
- To improve the product, including understanding feature usage and performance.
- To communicate with you about product updates, support requests, and account notices.
How Visual handles your data sources
When you connect a data source, Visual may read schema information (such as table and column names and types) to help generate queries and charts. Visual only queries data when you request an analysis or chart. Query results may be stored to support features like history, sharing, exports, and performance.
Sharing and publishing
You can mark visualizations as private or public depending on your settings. If you publish or share a visualization, it may be accessible to others according to the link and permissions you choose.
Data retention
We retain information for as long as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and your plan.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work hard to protect your data.
Your choices
- You can update account information in the product.
- You can delete content you created, including visualizations.
- You can contact us to request access to or deletion of your personal information, subject to applicable law.
