Privacy Policy

Effective February 25, 2026 · HAIO Labs, Inc.

HAIO Labs, Inc. (“HUMΛN,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights. It applies to builtwithhuman.com, haio.run, the HUMΛN platform, API, SDKs, and mobile and desktop applications (collectively, the “Services”).

1. Information we collect

Information you provide directly:

  • Name, email address, and organization when you register or contact us
  • Passport display name you choose during Passport creation
  • Messages, feedback, or support requests you send us
  • Payment information processed by our payment provider (Stripe); we do not store card numbers

Passport and identity data:

Your HUMΛN Passport uses WebAuthn/passkey technology. Your biometric data (fingerprint, Face ID) never leaves your device and is never transmitted to or stored by HUMΛN. We store only your decentralized identifier (DID), your WebAuthn public key, and your chosen display name.

Usage and technical data:

  • Pages visited, features used, and general usage patterns
  • Browser type, operating system, and IP address
  • Error logs and performance data via Sentry
  • API request metadata (endpoint, response time, error codes) — not request body content

CCPA categories of personal information collected:

  • Identifiers: name, email address, DID, IP address, device identifiers
  • Internet or network activity: pages visited, features used, API calls
  • Geolocation: country/region derived from IP address (not precise location)
  • Inferences: product preferences drawn from usage patterns
  • Professional information: organization or role if provided

2. How we use your information

  • Provide, maintain, and improve our Services
  • Authenticate you when you sign in with your Passport
  • Process transactions and send related notices
  • Respond to inquiries and support requests
  • Send product updates and announcements (you can opt out at any time)
  • Understand how our Services are used to guide development
  • Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents
  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your personal information for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects without human review.

3. Information sharing

We share your information only in these limited circumstances:

  • Service providers: Trusted vendors who help us operate our Services under confidentiality agreements, including: Cloudflare (hosting, CDN), Railway (infrastructure), Sentry (error monitoring), Stripe (payments), SendGrid (email), and Anthropic / OpenAI (AI features where applicable)
  • Legal requirements: When required by applicable law, court order, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of HUMΛN, our users, or others
  • Business transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, we will provide notice and your rights under this policy will continue to apply
  • With your consent: In any other circumstances where you have given explicit consent

4. Data retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide Services. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting privacy@builtwithhuman.com.

Passport DIDs and public keys associated with registered Passports may be retained in our public identity registry for integrity purposes, even after account deletion, consistent with the decentralized nature of the identity system.

Anonymized or aggregated data that cannot reasonably be used to identify you may be retained indefinitely for analytics and product improvement.

5. Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your information, including TLS encryption in transit, encryption at rest, and regular security reviews. Passport credentials use hardware-backed cryptography (Secure Enclave, TPM) where available. For a detailed overview of our security practices, see our Security page.

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. If you discover a security issue, please report it responsibly to security@builtwithhuman.com.

6. Cookies and tracking

We use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:

Essential cookies (always active)

Required for the Services to function. Includes session tokens, authentication state, and security tokens. These cannot be disabled.

Analytics cookies (optional)

Help us understand how visitors use our site in aggregate. Data is anonymized or pseudonymized. We use Cloudflare Analytics and Sentry performance monitoring.

We do not use advertising cookies, cross-site tracking, or third-party behavioral profiling. You can manage cookie preferences using the banner shown on your first visit, or by contacting us.

7. International data transfers

HUMΛN is headquartered in the United States. If you access our Services from the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States.

We rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission and the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) as the legal mechanism for such transfers, where required. We also implement supplementary technical and organizational measures to protect transferred data.

8. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
