Plain-English summary
Sunsama commits to not selling user data and limits information collection to what is necessary, including a specific rejection of biometric data collection and profile picture analysis.
While personal tasks, content, and usage patterns are used for AI features, the policy explicitly states that this data is *never* used to train AI models, either their own or third-party models. When AI services are used, third-party providers are contractually bound not to use user data for model training. Users are also given the right to human review and to contest automated AI decisions that significantly affect them. The company also states that data associated with inactive accounts may be deleted after notice is provided, and data may remain in backup systems for up to 90 days after account deletion.
