High risk across multiple dimensions. Only use with public, non-sensitive data.
The ToS explicitly states that kapa may use user communications and inputs to 'monitor, develop and improve our Service and any other products and services.' The Privacy Policy further confirms kapa collects and uses data 'to improve and customize our Services' and 'to conduct research and analytics.' There is no explicit opt-out for training, and the language indicates data is used to develop competing products.
“[ToS] 'kapa may use these communications and inputs to monitor, develop and improve our Service and any other products and services that we may develop.' [Privacy] 'Improve and customize our Services to address the needs and interests of our user base'”
The ToS grants kapa an 'irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), fully paid, royalty-free, and worldwide right and license' to use Your Content for service improvement, data analysis, and other business purposes. This is an extremely broad, perpetual license that survives termination and permits sublicensing.
“[ToS] 'you grant...to us an irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), fully paid, royalty-free, and worldwide right and license to use, copy, store, modify, distribute and display Your Content...to improve our products and services and for our other business purposes'”
The Privacy Policy explicitly states kapa shares Personal Data with 'Marketing Providers,' 'Ad Networks and Advertising Partners,' and 'Affiliates and Service Providers' without requiring strict Data Processing Agreements. The policy permits sharing with 'business partners' and advertising networks for targeted ads, and data may be disclosed in business transactions without explicit consent.
“[Privacy] 'We coordinate and share Personal Data with our marketing providers...We work with third-party ad networks and advertising partners to deliver advertising and personalized content...We share your information with our third-party service providers and any subcontractors'”
The Privacy Policy states retention is 'for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes' but provides vague criteria and no specific timeframes. The ToS states that upon termination, kapa 'will continue to store Your Content pursuant to our Privacy Notice' and 'may, in our discretion, permanently delete Your Content.' This creates indefinite retention with discretionary deletion.
“[Privacy] 'We keep your Personal Data for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it has been collected.' [ToS] 'Upon termination of your Service Account, kapa will continue to store Your Content pursuant to our Privacy Notice. After termination, we may, in our discretion, permanently delete Your Content'”
The ToS explicitly states 'WE CLAIM NO OWNERSHIP RIGHTS OVER YOUR CONTENT' and confirms that 'you (or your licensors) will own any and all information, data, documentation and other content...that is collected, downloaded, or otherwise received...by or through our Service.' The company retains no IP rights to user-generated outputs.
“[ToS] 'WE CLAIM NO OWNERSHIP RIGHTS OVER YOUR CONTENT. However, you understand that...As between us and you, you (or your licensors) will own any and all information, data, documentation and other content'”
The Privacy Policy mentions compliance with EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and states kapa 'has certified' adherence to DPF Principles, but no SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or other standard security certifications are mentioned. The ToS references 'commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures' but provides no third-party validation or published security documentation.
“[Privacy] 'We have certified that we adhere to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles' [ToS] 'We have implemented commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to secure your data and information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access'”
