Privacy Policy

Prelaunch policy — this document is still being completed and is not yet final.

The Shape Soveau and Join the Pilot forms are live (activated 2026-09-27) and use Netlify Forms. The legal document privacy research survey also uses Netlify Forms. Submissions remain private; there is no public board and nothing submitted is published.

Effective date: to be confirmed when the final version is published

This page sets out how the Soveau website handles information submitted through its forms. Sections marked “To be finalized” still need approved details; the statements around them are factual descriptions of how the product and this website are designed to work.

1. Scope

This policy is intended to cover the Soveau website. Soveau is a NarrowQuest product.

It doesn’t yet cover the Soveau application, which isn’t available.

To be finalized The final scope statement, including which organization is responsible for information collected through the website, will be published once confirmed.

2. Information we collect

A Shape Soveau response may include a professional role, a description of a document task and what makes it difficult, the outcome you would want, optional interest in a research interview or early product testing, and an email address if a contact purpose is chosen.

A Join the Pilot registration may include your name, email address, role, organization size, a description of your document-sharing workflow, and an optional note.

A legal document privacy research response may include your role, when and how often you handle redaction, document volume, current and verification methods, process concerns, an optional better-outcome description, follow-up choice, and an email address if provided.

Each submission also records whether you agreed to research or pilot follow-up and whether you asked for product updates. Shape Soveau also records interview and early-testing interest; its marketing choice explicitly covers Early Access and launch availability.

The forms ask visitors not to include client names, confidential information, or documents, and they do not accept file uploads.

This site does not currently use third-party analytics or advertising scripts.

To understand how people reach Shape Soveau, this site may temporarily keep limited campaign tags, the first Soveau landing path, and the referring host in session storage. This information expires with the browser session and is sent to Netlify only if you submit the Shape Soveau form. Full referring URLs and unrelated query parameters are not stored.

To be finalized The full reasons for collecting each item will be published as this policy is finalized.

3. Research and pilot submissions

Shape Soveau and the legal document privacy survey are intended for workflow research, and Join the Pilot is intended for pilot participation.

Responses remain private. Nothing submitted is published, and there is no public board.

Access to submissions is initially limited to authorized NarrowQuest personnel.

Consent to research or pilot follow-up is separate from consent to receive product updates.

On Shape Soveau, interview and early-testing interest require research contact permission; an email can instead be provided solely for Early Access and product updates.

To be finalized A fuller description of how responses will be used will be published as this policy is finalized.

5. Website technical data

The website is hosted on Netlify. Like any hosting service, it may process technical information, such as IP addresses, in order to deliver and secure the site.

To be finalized A description of the technical data the hosting service records will be published once it has been reviewed.

6. Document processing boundary

The marketing website does not accept document uploads.

Soveau is being designed so that routine document processing occurs on the user’s device by default.

Future online services, such as accounts, licensing, and updates, are intended to stay separate from document processing.

To be finalized A precise description of anything the application may send to online services will be published once it has been verified.

7. Data retention

Raw prelaunch submissions from Shape Soveau, Join the Pilot, and the legal document privacy research survey are kept for a maximum of 180 days.

They are deleted earlier where appropriate, for example on a valid request.

If a participant later enters an actual pilot or product relationship, information needed for that relationship may be governed separately by the applicable pilot or product terms.

To be finalized Retention of any other information, and any change to these periods, will be confirmed before this policy is finalized.

8. Service providers

Netlify provides website hosting and form handling and storage of submissions.

This policy makes no statement about where Netlify stores data.

No marketing, email, or analytics service is connected.

To be finalized Any additional service providers will be listed once they have been chosen.

9. Your choices and rights

Nothing on this website requires you to submit anything.

You can ask us to delete a submission by writing to the privacy contact below.

To be finalized A fuller description of your rights, and how to exercise them, will be published as this policy is finalized.
