Minami AI Privacy Policy

By using our Services or providing personal information to us, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services or provide personal information.

Minami AI Inc. (“Minami AI”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), incorporated in Delaware, United States, is committed to protecting the privacy of individuals who interact with our services, including our website (https://minami.ai), applications, and other digital services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you engage with our Services, whether as a representative of a subscribing business client (“Client”) or as a visitor to our website.

This Privacy Policy applies when Minami AI acts as a data controller, processing personal information for our own business purposes (e.g., billing or account management for Clients).

This Privacy Policy also does not apply to information about employees, job candidates, contractors, or similar roles.

For residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Nevada, Utah, or Virginia, additional disclosures are provided in the Additional U.S. State Privacy Disclosures section. For Clients in the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, or the United Kingdom (U.K.), please refer to the EU/UK Privacy Notice section for GDPR-specific information.
