How are you keeping data private as stated in your FAQs? Is the data not shared with an AI company in order to generate all the smart features?

It’s shared with OCR, and gpt o3 but they don’t save any of the information and the ai doesn’t learn from previous uploads.

Okay that checks out. I would suggest removing the claim that your user's data is never shared from your FAQ:

Is my data private? Yes. Your uploads are secure, never shared, and can be deleted anytime.

Your right, I’ll make this change, thanks.
