Privacy Policy

Overview

Zar Labs is a software development, AI automation, and digital infrastructure company serving startups, businesses, and organizations globally. We are committed to transparency, responsible data handling, and maintaining the trust of our clients, partners, and users.

We collect only what we need to run our website, respond to leads, deliver client work, and operate subscriber tools. We do not sell personal data. We use reputable third-party processors under contracts that limit how they may use your information.

This policy applies to visitors, prospective clients, newsletter subscribers, and registered Social Engine or AI Growth Engine users. For service-specific terms, see our Terms of Service. To learn how we collaborate remotely with clients, see How We Work.

Information we collect

Depending on how you interact with Zar Labs, we may collect the following categories of information:

You choose what to share. Required fields on forms are marked. Do not submit sensitive health, financial account, or government ID information unless we explicitly request it for a contracted engagement.

How we use information

• Respond to contact requests, project intake forms, and support messages.
• Deliver software development, consulting, and related services under contract.
• Send newsletter and product updates you opted into (with unsubscribe in every email).
• Operate dashboard login, Social Engine features, AI Growth Engine crawls and content tools, schedules, and email reminders.
• Generate AI-assisted content or images when you actively use those tools.
• Improve site performance, security, and user experience through aggregated analytics.
• Comply with law, enforce our terms, and protect against fraud or abuse.

Legal bases (UK / EU): Consent (newsletter, cookies, AI features you initiate), Contract (services you request), Legitimate interests (security and site improvement, balanced against your rights), and Legal obligation where applicable.

Third-party processors

We do not sell or rent personal data. We share information only with service providers who help us operate the business:

Each processor is selected for security and reliability. Review their privacy policies for details on how they handle data on our behalf.

AI services & generated content

Certain Zar Labs products and services — including Social Engine, AI Growth Engine, Strategy Chat, Image Studio, automation workflows, and AEO-related tools — may use artificial intelligence technologies to generate content, recommendations, automations, insights, images, or other outputs.

AI-generated content should be reviewed by users before publication or business use. We provide these tools to assist your workflow; you remain responsible for how outputs are used.

We do not use client-submitted content to train proprietary AI models unless explicitly agreed upon in writing. Prompts and data sent to third-party AI providers are processed only to deliver the feature you requested.

Cookies & analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functionality, preferences (such as cookie consent), and — if you accept — analytics to understand how visitors use our site.

See our Cookie Policy. You can manage cookies in your browser settings; blocking essential cookies may affect some features.

Data retention

• Inquiries & intake forms — typically up to 24 months, unless a project proceeds or you ask us to delete sooner.
• Newsletter — until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove your email.
• Client project records — for the engagement period plus any legal or contractual retention required.
• Social Engine accounts — while your account is active; deleted or anonymized within 90 days of account closure, except where law requires longer retention.
• AI Growth Engine data — crawl results, health scores, and content you create are kept while your subscription is active; deleted or anonymized within 90 days of account closure unless you export them sooner.
• Analytics — aggregated or anonymized data may be kept longer for trend analysis.

Your rights

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

• Access a copy of personal data we hold about you.
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Request deletion of your data (subject to legal exceptions).
• Object to or restrict certain processing.
• Withdraw consent where processing is consent-based.
• Port your data in a machine-readable format where applicable.
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Email zarlabsteam@gmail.com — we respond within 30 days.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures — including encryption in transit (HTTPS), access controls, and secure cloud infrastructure — to protect personal information.

Access to client systems and project data is restricted to authorized personnel and approved service providers required for service delivery.

No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security. We review our practices regularly as our services and team grow.

International transfers: Zar Labs serves clients globally. Your information may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.

Children: Our services are not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Contact us to request deletion if you believe a child has provided data.
