This European Privacy Notice (the "Notice") is issued in compliance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the General Data Protection Regulation, or "EU GDPR") and the equivalent United Kingdom regime (the "UK GDPR" together with the Data Protection Act 2018). It applies to individuals located in the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom ("EEA/UK Users") whose personal data is processed by IcloneU.
This Notice supplements the IcloneU general Privacy Policy available at https://icloneu.ai/PrivacyPolicy. In case of conflict between this Notice and the general Privacy Policy regarding EEA/UK Users, this Notice shall prevail.
IcloneU does not sell your personal data, and does not use your personal data, connected social-platform data, or Google user data to train generalized or foundation artificial intelligence models.
This Notice describes how IcloneU collects, uses, discloses and protects the personal data of individuals located in the EEA and the UK, and the rights those individuals have under the EU GDPR and the UK GDPR. It applies to your use of the IcloneU platform, website and related services.
Where this Notice refers to the "GDPR," the reference should be read as applying to both the EU GDPR (for individuals in the EEA) and the UK GDPR (for individuals in the United Kingdom), except where a distinction is expressly drawn. This Notice does not replace the general Privacy Policy; rather, it adds the specific disclosures and rights required for EEA/UK Users and prevails over the general Privacy Policy to the extent of any inconsistency for those users.
The controller responsible for the processing of your personal data is:
EU/UK Representative (Article 27). Where required under Article 27 of the EU GDPR and/or the UK GDPR, IcloneU will designate a representative established in the Union and/or the United Kingdom to act as a point of contact for supervisory authorities and data subjects on matters relating to processing.
EU/UK Representative: [EU/UK Representative — to be appointed]
Depending on how you use the Services, we collect the following categories of personal data. We do not intentionally collect special categories of personal data (such as data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data or biometric data used to uniquely identify a person).
| Category | Examples | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Identifiers | Name, email address, account ID, authentication identifiers | Provided by you at registration; generated by us |
| Account and contact data | Profile details, language and account preferences, support correspondence | Provided by you; generated during your use of the Services |
| Billing and payment data | Subscription plan, transaction history, partial card/payment details | Provided by you and processed by our payment processor, Stripe |

| Connected social-platform data | Messages, comments, profile information and content from connected accounts (e.g. Meta, Google) that you choose to link | Received from the connected platform with your authorization |
| Content and knowledge-library data | Text, documents and materials you upload to train and operate your Digital Clone | Provided by you |
Data shared with processors such as Stripe (payment processing) and our AI provider (response generation) is disclosed exclusively to provide the Services you have contracted and under contractual data-protection safeguards. Such disclosures are not a "sale" of personal data.
We process your personal data only where we have a valid legal basis under Article 6 of the GDPR. The table below maps each purpose to its legal basis.
| Purpose | Legal Basis (Art. 6 GDPR) |
|---|---|
| Providing the IcloneU Services, managing your account, and training and operating your Digital Clone | Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Processing subscriptions, billing and payments through Stripe | Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Complying with tax, accounting and other legal obligations, and responding to lawful requests from authorities | Compliance with a legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)) |
| Securing the platform, preventing fraud and abuse, and improving our products and services | Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) — balanced against your rights and freedoms; we process only what is necessary and you may object at any time |
| Sending marketing communications and setting optional (non-essential) cookies | Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)), which you may withdraw at any time |
We do not use your personal data, connected social-platform data, or Google user data to develop, improve or train generalized or foundation artificial intelligence models. Your content is used only to operate the Services you have contracted, including training your own Digital Clone.
As an EEA/UK User, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
To exercise any of the rights described in Section 5, please contact our Data Protection Officer by email at wecare@icloneu.ai with the subject "GDPR Rights Request."
We will respond to your request without undue delay and in any event within one (1) month of receipt. Where a request is complex or you have made a number of requests, we may extend this period by up to two further months, in which case we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it within the first month.
Exercising your rights is free of charge, except where a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in which case we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act. To protect your privacy, we will verify your identity before processing your request and may ask you to provide sufficient information to confirm that you are the person to whom the personal data relates or an authorized representative.
IcloneU is based in Mexico, and your personal data is processed in Mexico and the United States, which are located outside the EEA and the UK. When we transfer personal data out of the EEA or the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards recognized under the GDPR, including the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and, for transfers from the UK, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or the UK Addendum to the SCCs, as well as adequacy decisions where applicable.
For further detail on our cross-border transfers and the safeguards we apply, please see the international transfers section of the general Privacy Policy at https://icloneu.ai/PrivacyPolicy and our Data Protection Policy. You may request a copy of the relevant safeguards by contacting our DPO.
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to provide the Services, comply with our legal, tax and accounting obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. Our retention periods follow the retention rules described in the general Privacy Policy, after which personal data is securely deleted or anonymized.
If you believe our processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In the EEA, you may complain to the supervisory authority of the Member State where you live, work, or where the alleged infringement occurred. In the United Kingdom, you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
We encourage you to contact our Data Protection Officer first so that we can try to resolve your concern directly.
IcloneU does not make decisions producing legal effects concerning you, or similarly significantly affecting you, based solely on automated processing, including profiling. While the Services use artificial intelligence to generate responses on your behalf, these outputs operate under your configuration and control and do not constitute solely automated decisions with legal or similarly significant effects on you. If this were to change, we would inform you, identify the applicable legal basis, and implement suitable safeguards, including your right to obtain human intervention, to express your point of view, and to contest the decision.
We may update this Notice periodically. When we do, we will post the updated version and update the effective date. For material changes, we will notify you by email at least 30 days in advance.
