How We Process Your Content

When you use our services to create mind maps or other visualizations:

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our website and to hold certain information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent.

We use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your device until you delete them).

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from accidental loss, unauthorized access, and other security risks.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
