Privacy Policy

Account information. Name, email address, optional firm or organisation, role, approval status, a securely hashed password, and account settings.

Case materials. Matter names, notes, pasted text, trial plans, witnesses, exhibits, questions, decision notes, and the extracted text from files you choose to attach. PDF and Word files are parsed in your browser; the extracted text you submit is what reaches our servers.

Simulation records. Trial versions, feature extractions, run settings, generated transcripts, verdict distributions, comparisons, reports, and related audit records.

Security and usage records. Session identifiers, IP address, user agent, timestamps, sign-ins, approvals, administrative changes, requested routes, and errors needed to operate and protect the Service.

Communications. Information you include in support, privacy, or security requests.

The new-matter wizard stores an unfinished brief in your browser's local storage so you can recover it after a refresh. That draft may contain case text. It remains on that browser until you submit or discard it, the application clears it, or you clear site data. It is not a cookie and is not sent with ordinary page requests.

Avoid drafting on a shared device. The exact storage key and controls are listed in our Cookie Policy.

We use case materials to create the brief, run the simulations, compare versions, and generate the reports you request. We do not use one customer's case materials for another customer or to build Scintilla's juror cohorts.

When drafting or feature extraction is requested, relevant text or media is sent through OpenRouter to the selected upstream model provider. The request is made without your account password or session token, but the material itself may be confidential. Provider processing is governed by the applicable service terms and data-protection commitments.

Simulated jurors are composites built from de-identified behavioural cohorts of at least 100 people. They are not real jurors and do not receive your raw uploaded files.

• to authenticate approved users and administer workspaces;
• to save matters, run simulations, and produce reports and comparisons;
• to preserve draft work at your request;
• to provide support and respond to privacy or security requests;
• to prevent misuse, investigate incidents, and maintain audit records; and
• to comply with legal obligations.

Where a legal basis is required, we rely on performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, and legitimate interests in providing and securing a litigation-work product. We ask for consent where required.

We do not sell or rent your information. We share information only with providers that help operate Scintilla—including Vercel for hosting, Convex for application data, and OpenRouter and the selected upstream model provider for requested model processing—or when required by valid legal process.

Workspace users can see records their role and matter access permit. We do not publish case materials or reports as public links unless a specific sharing feature says so and you choose to use it.

• We do not sell personal information or case materials.
• We do not use advertising cookies, cross-site retargeting, or session replay.
• We do not use case materials to train juror cohorts or serve another customer.
• We do not claim a simulation predicts an actual jury, judge, or litigation outcome.

• Account records: while the account is active, then up to 30 days.
• Authentication cookies and session records: up to 14 days.
• Matters, case materials, simulations, and reports: until deleted or closure is requested.
• Routine security logs: up to 90 days.
• Privileged-action audit records: up to 24 months.
• Local draft storage: until submitted, discarded, cleared by the app, or cleared in the browser.

Information may be retained longer if required by law, preserved for an active dispute or security investigation, or present in backups that have not yet cycled out.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or export personal data, and to withdraw consent where consent applies. We may need to verify your identity and authority before acting on a request.

You can delete matters you own from the docket. Workspace administrators can delete any matter. Account, privacy, security, and data-subject requests can also be sent to the contact address below.

We use bcrypt password hashing, cryptographically random sessions, SHA-256 token hashes, role-based access, administrator approval, audit logging, and encrypted transport. No security programme eliminates every risk.

Scintilla does not create an attorney-client relationship with SIL. You are responsible for deciding whether your professional, contractual, confidentiality, protective-order, or privilege obligations permit submission of particular material.

SIL and its providers may process information in the United States and other countries. Where required, we use contractual and other safeguards for international transfers.

Scintilla is a professional service for users aged 18 or older. We do not knowingly create accounts for children.

We will update the effective date when this policy changes. Material changes will be highlighted on the site or at sign-in where appropriate.

Privacy, security, support, and data-subject requests all go to contact@socialintelligencelabs.com.
