Privacy Policy

How Datana collects, uses, and protects your personal information and data.

Last updated: September 28, 2026

Information we collect

When you create an account, we collect your name, email address, and authentication credentials. When you use the platform, we process datasets you upload, analysis results, chat messages, and usage metadata required to operate the service.

If you import from a link or connect a database, we store the link and the connection details you provide (host, database name, username, and password). Passwords and full links are encrypted, and we only read the tables or query results you choose to import including on scheduled refreshes you set up.

If you share an analysis, we store your share links, the email addresses of people you invite, their role, and any comments they or you add.

How we use your information

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Datana platform
  • Run analysis jobs and generate insights on the data you upload or import
  • Run the scheduled refreshes you set up and email you alerts about them
  • Send invitations and comment notifications when you share an analysis
  • Authenticate users and enforce access controls
  • Send transactional emails such as password resets, receipts, and analysis notifications
  • Monitor performance, security, and abuse prevention

Data retention

Your datasets, connections, and analysis outputs are retained for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. You may delete datasets and connections, and revoke share links, from your dashboard at any time. Upon account deletion, we remove associated user data in accordance with our retention policies.

Third-party services

Datana may use third-party providers for AI inference, email delivery, error monitoring, payments (Paystack, Flutterwave, Apple App Store, Google Play), and infrastructure hosting. These providers process data only as needed to deliver the service and are bound by contractual data protection obligations. AI providers receive only the summaries and query results needed for a task, not your full dataset.

Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal data. Contact us at [email protected] to exercise these rights.

To delete your account and associated data, follow the instructions on https://getdatana.com/delete-account or email [email protected] with the subject “Account deletion request”.
