How we handle your data

1

We do not sell your data. Ever.

Your chapter and member data exists to serve your organization. It is never sold, shared for advertising, or used to build profiles for third parties.

2

AI features use zero-retention providers

AI-assisted drafting and insights process data through third-party providers with zero data retention policies. Your content is not used to train models.

3

You own your data

You can export or delete your data at any time. Scheduled CSV exports, draft export, and member data export are all available from within the application.
