How We Use Your Information
To provide the service
We use your data to extract information from COI documents, check compliance against your configured requirements, and send notifications about coverage gaps and expirations.
AI processing
Uploaded PDF documents are sent to Anthropic's Claude API for data extraction. Anthropic processes the document content to extract structured insurance data. Anthropic's data retention policies apply to this processing — see Anthropic's privacy policy for details.

Transactional emails, including compliance notifications, follow-up reminders, and portal upload links, are sent via Resend.
