SowFin Privacy Policy

Version 2.2 | Last Updated: March 31, 2026

  1. Introduction

SowFin, Inc. (“SowFin,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides an AI-powered strategic finance and due diligence platform. This Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding the collection, use, and protection of the information you provide when using our services.

We are committed to data minimization and transparency. By using SowFin, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy. We prioritize your control over your information and ensure that your data is never sold or used for unauthorized advertising.

  1. Cloud Storage Integrations & Google API Disclosure

SowFin provides optional integrations with third-party cloud storage services, including Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive, to allow you to manually select specific documents for AI-powered financial analysis. These integrations are designed to ensure you only share the files necessary for your current task without granting us broad access to your entire cloud account.

SowFin’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

  • File Processing: When you select a document via the Google Picker or OneDrive file picker, SowFin reads the content of that specific file to perform the requested AI analysis. We do not “browse” or “scan” your Drive; we only process the individual files you explicitly choose to open with our application.
  • Google Drive API Specifics: We utilize the ‘drive.file’ scope to maintain the narrowest level of access possible, restricted only to files created or opened by SowFin.
  • OneDrive Integration: Documents retrieved from OneDrive are used strictly for generating financial insights and are governed by the same “No AI Training” and “No Selling” protections applied to all other platform data.
  • Strict Purpose Limitation: Information retrieved from these integrations is used solely to generate financial insights within the SowFin platform. We do not use this data for advertising, nor do we sell it to third parties.
  • No AI Model Training: We do not allow any data obtained through Google APIs to be used for the training or improvement of generalized AI models.

 

  1. Information We Collect

We collect specific information necessary to create your account and generate the high-fidelity due diligence and financial reports you request. This collection is tailored to your role and the specific analyses you perform

  • Account and Profile Details: To manage your access, we collect your name, email address, password, role, and organization name.
  • Financial and Business Metrics: For Founders, we collect comprehensive financial and operational data necessary for accurate scoring, including revenue metrics, burn rates, cap tables, and financial projections . For Investors, we track the company profiles and deal pipelines and portfolio data to enable both organization management and AI-driven due diligence analysis .
  • Analysis Documents: This includes the pitch decks, financial models, and legal documents you upload directly or import via cloud integrations for analysis.

 

  1. How We Use Your Information

Your information is used strictly to execute the core financial services provided by SowFin and to maintain the security of your account. We do not sell your data or use it for unauthorized advertising.

 

  • Analysis Generation: We process your uploaded documents and metrics to calculate DealScore™ ratings and generate investment summaries.
  • Technical Security and Support: We use system logs and anonymized usage data to maintain platform security, investigate technical bugs, and provide requested customer support.
  • Service Communications: Your contact information is used to send mandatory account notifications, security alerts, receipts for payments, and support responses.

 

 

  1. Data Retention and Deletion

SowFin follows a strict data minimization policy, retaining your files only as long as they are actively being used for analysis or managed within your profile. We provide clear paths for you to remove your information from our active databases.

  • Immediate Purge for Free Accounts: For Founder accounts on free or trial plans, all uploaded source documents including those imported from Google Drive or OneDrive are purged from our active servers immediately once the analysis is finalized.
  • Manual Analysis Deletion: All users have the right to delete any generated analysis and its associated source files at any time using the delete icon within the platform.
  • Account Deletion: You may delete your entire account and all associated data by navigating to the Profile menu and selecting “Delete Account” under the Plan tab. This action is immediate and irreversible.
  • Subscription Cancellation: Upon cancelling a paid subscription, data is preserved for a 30-day grace period from the last day of the subscription to allow for data recovery before permanent deletion.
  1. User Control and Revocation

You have the right to manage or disconnect third-party integrations at any time.

  • Revoking Access: You can revoke SowFin’s access to your Google Drive via your Google Account Security settings. While this stops our ability to pull new data, we strongly recommend using the internal “Delete Analysis” button to ensure any files already imported for active reports are purged from our storage.
  • Accessing and Updating Data: You may review and update your profile information or delete specific analyses through your dashboard at any time.
  1. Data Security

We implement industry-standard technical measures, including AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit, to protect your data. All information is hosted on secure AWS infrastructure. You are responsible for maintaining a strong, unique password for your account and reporting any suspicious activity to support@sowfin.com . We will notify you of any verified data breach as required by applicable law.
