Who we are
“Quadron,” “we,” “us,” and “our” mean Quadron Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Quadron is responsible for (the “controller” of) the Personal Data described in this policy, except where we process it for a school or other Program, as explained in “Students and minors.”
The “Service” means quadron.work, Future You on iMessage and Telegram, your Quadron record, the Quadron web app, and the Quadron connectors. “You” means the person using the Service. “Personal Data” means information that identifies, relates to, or could reasonably be linked to a person. Other capitalized words have the meaning given in our Terms of Service.
What we collect
What you give us
- Your mobile number and the country you pick, when you ask Future You to text you, with a record of when and where you gave consent.
- Messages. What you send Future You on iMessage or Telegram, and its replies, including any attachments.
- The calls you keep. When you say Keep, that call is saved to your record, with its one-line summary, the date, and where it came from.
- Account details, such as your name, email address, and sign-in details, when you start your record on the web.
- Your choices, such as what you want help with when you start your record, who you have shown calls to, and your settings.
- Support requests and anything else you send us, such as an email.
Please do not send Future You sensitive information it does not need, such as passwords, government ID numbers, payment card numbers, or health information about other people. If you choose to share information about your own health, beliefs, or similar sensitive topics, we use it only to provide the Service to you.
What connectors share, when you connect them
- Slack: the messages in threads where you ask Future You to keep a call.
- Gmail: only the emails you forward to your Future You address.
- Google Calendar: event titles and times only, so Future You can check in after a meeting.
- Granola: the meeting notes you share, so Future You can read back the calls in them.
- Claude and ChatGPT: the requests you make to keep a call or use your record.
What we collect automatically
When you visit quadron.work or use the web app, our hosting provider records basic technical data, such as your IP address, browser type and version, the pages you visit, and the time of your visit. When you use the Service, our systems record operational logs, such as when a message was received and whether delivery succeeded. We limit what these logs capture to what is needed to run and troubleshoot the Service, not the content of your messages or calls.
What we infer
Future You’s summaries of your calls are generated from what you send. They are part of your Content and are treated the same way.
How we use it
- To run Future You and your record: reply to you, name and read back your calls, and keep the ones you confirm
- To text you, after you have asked us to, and to honor STOP and HELP
- To show your record to the people you choose
- To run the connectors you turn on
- To answer requests and questions you send us
- To keep the Service secure, prevent abuse and fraud, and fix problems
- To understand, in aggregate, how the Service is used (for example, how many calls are kept each week), without reading the content of your messages
- To comply with the law and enforce our Terms
We do not sell your Personal Data. We do not share it for targeted or cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not use your content to train AI models, as explained in “How Quadron uses AI.” We do not use your Personal Data to make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects.
Legal bases (EEA and UK)
The Service is offered only in the United States, so the legal-bases framework that applies to the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland does not apply to it. If we ever offer the Service in those places, we will update this policy first.
Private by default
Future You isn’t a person. What you send stays private while you work. Nothing goes into your record unless you say Keep. No one at Quadron reads it unless you ask for help or separately agree to a review. Reply “delete everything” at any time and Quadron will delete what it holds.
That is the first thing Future You tells you, and this policy holds us to it.
Here is exactly what that means:
- Automated processing. Your messages are processed by computer systems, including our AI providers, to reply to you. That is not a person reading them.
- Unkept messages. Messages you do not keep are used only to reply to you and to keep the Service working, and are kept only as long as needed for that purpose before they are deleted.
- When a person at Quadron may read your content. Only (1) when you ask us for help and the help needs it, (2) when you separately agree to a review, or (3) when a small number of authorized staff must do so to comply with the law, respond to a credible threat to someone’s safety, or investigate a serious security incident or abuse of the Service. In case (3), access is limited to what is needed and is logged.
- Sharing a call. Your record is private until you choose to show a call. The people you show it to see that call, on your terms, and nothing else. They may be able to copy what they see, so share only what you are comfortable sharing.
Texts and your phone number
We use your mobile number only to run Future You for you: to text you, to recognize your messages, and to honor opt-outs. By entering your number on quadron.work, you agree to receive texts from Future You. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help. Message frequency varies. The Terms set out the full text-program terms.
We do not sell, rent, or share your mobile number, or your consent to receive texts, with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. We share it only with the providers that deliver messages for us, as described below, and they may use it only to deliver those messages.
Future You on iMessage reaches you through Apple’s service and service providers that deliver messages for us. On Telegram, your messages also pass through Telegram, under Telegram’s own privacy policy.
If you reply STOP, we keep a record of your number and the opt-out so that we never text you again, and a record of your original consent so we can show it was given. We keep these records for as long as needed to demonstrate consent and comply with applicable law, even after you delete everything.
How Quadron uses AI
Quadron uses AI to help you: to talk through the task in front of you, name the call in one line, and check what is safe to share. To do that, the relevant part of what you send is processed by our AI providers over an encrypted connection.
Our AI providers. Our AI providers currently include Anthropic, the maker of Claude. Other AI providers we may use are bound by contract not to train on your content. We list our providers in “When information is shared.”
What we send, and why. When you message Future You, or use a feature that reflects on, organizes, or protects your calls, Quadron sends the content needed for that feature to an AI provider, and only to produce the result you asked for.
No training on your content. Quadron does not use your messages, your calls, or your record to train or fine-tune AI models, and we commit to keeping it that way. We use AI providers only under terms that prohibit them from training their models on your content and that limit how long they may keep it: they keep it only as long as needed to produce your result or, where a provider retains it briefly for abuse monitoring, no longer than that purpose requires. If we ever want to use your content to improve our models, we will ask for your separate, opt-in permission first, and the change will not apply to content you sent before.
Your protections. Quadron’s protection layer is designed to help keep your private and trade-secret material from being exposed. It reduces risk but cannot guarantee that nothing sensitive is ever disclosed, so please follow the guidance in “What we collect” about sensitive information. Nothing you keep is made public unless you choose to share it.
Connectors
A connector works only for you, on your own data, and only when you ask it to.
What it accesses. Each connector is limited to your own account and the data listed in “What we collect”: reading the working context you point it at, recalling and searching your kept calls, and, only when you direct it, keeping a new call. It does not access anyone else’s account, and your data is returned only to your own signed-in session.
Permissions. When you authorize a connector, it asks for the permissions it needs to act for you on your own record, such as your profile and email. You approve these on the provider’s consent screen and can revoke them at any time in Quadron or in that provider’s settings.
Google data. Quadron’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Third parties. A connector runs through the tool you choose, such as Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), or Slack. When you bring part of your record into one of those tools, that provider’s own terms and privacy policy govern what it does with it, including any use for its model training under your settings there.
Security. Connections use encrypted (HTTPS/TLS) transport and OAuth authorization with per-user consent.
Keeping and deleting
- Calls you keep stay in your record until you delete them or delete everything. You can delete a single call at any time.
- Messages you do not keep are kept only as long as needed to reply to you, then deleted.
- Account details are kept while you have an account, and deleted when you delete everything.
- Operational and security logs are kept only as long as needed for security and operations, then deleted.
- Website usage data is kept by our hosting provider only as long as needed for site operations, then deleted.
- Backups are overwritten on a rolling basis in the ordinary course.
Delete everything
Reply “delete everything” to Future You, or email hello@quadron.work, and Quadron will delete what it holds about you, including your messages, your record, your connections, and your phone number. Deletion from our live systems happens promptly, and backups are cleared as they are naturally overwritten in the ordinary course. We will confirm when it is done.
We keep only the following after you delete everything: the opt-out and consent records described in “Texts and your phone number”; records we must keep by law or for an active legal claim; and information about you in calls you have already shown to others, to the extent they have copied it outside Quadron. Deletion cannot be undone.
Your rights
Wherever you live, you can ask us to:
- tell you what Personal Data we hold about you and give you a copy, in a portable format where practical
- correct inaccurate Personal Data
- delete your Personal Data
- stop or limit certain processing, or object to processing based on our legitimate interests
- withdraw your consent, including to texts and connectors, at any time
How to ask. Reply “delete everything” to Future You to delete, reply STOP to stop texts, or email hello@quadron.work for any request. We will confirm your request is really from you, usually by a code sent to the phone number or email on your account, and respond within 30 days. If we need more time, as the law allows, we will tell you why. You can use an authorized agent; we may ask for proof that they are authorized.
No penalty. We will not treat you differently for using your rights.
Appeals and complaints. If we decline your request, you can appeal by replying to our decision, and we will answer within the time the law requires. If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you can also complain to your local data protection authority. If you are in the U.S., you can contact your state attorney general if we deny your appeal.
U.S. state privacy rights
Residents of California and other states with comprehensive privacy laws (such as Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, and others) have the rights listed in “Your rights,” and may also have the right to know the categories of Personal Data we collect, the sources, the purposes, and the categories of recipients. In the past 12 months:
- Categories collected: identifiers (such as phone number, email, and IP address); account information; the content of messages you send us; your kept calls and the summaries of them; internet activity on our site; and, only if you choose to send it, sensitive information.
- Sources: you, the connectors you authorize, and your Program if you use one.
- Purposes: those in “How we use it.”
- Recipients: the service providers and others listed in “When information is shared,” for business purposes only.
- Sensitive information is used only to provide the Service you asked for, and not to infer characteristics about you.
Do not sell or share
Quadron does not sell Personal Data and does not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, and has not done so in the past 12 months. We do not knowingly sell or share the Personal Data of anyone under 16. Because there is nothing to opt out of, we do not show a “Do Not Sell or Share” link; we still treat a Global Privacy Control signal from your browser as a valid opt-out request.
Students and minors
Minimum age: 14
The Service is not for anyone under 14, and we do not collect Personal Data from them, including through schools or Programs. Consistent with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we do not knowingly collect Personal Data from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected information from anyone under 14, we will delete it promptly after we discover it and close the account. If you believe someone under 14 has given us information, email hello@quadron.work.
Users aged 14 to 17
Users aged 14 to 17 may use Quadron only with a parent’s or guardian’s agreement, or through a Program whose agreement with Quadron covers minors and any required parental consent. For them, the same promises apply: nothing is kept unless they say Keep, nothing is shown unless they choose, and their information is never sold, used for advertising, or used to train AI models. We do not build profiles of minors for any purpose other than providing the Service to them.
Parents and guardians can ask to see, correct, or delete a minor’s information, or to stop their use of the Service, by emailing hello@quadron.work. We will verify that you are the parent or guardian before acting. Minors can also delete their own information at any time by replying “delete everything.”
Schools and FERPA
When a school or university that is subject to the U.S. Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) provides Quadron with student education records, or has students use Quadron as part of its program, Quadron acts as a “school official” with a legitimate educational interest, under the school’s direct control. In that case, we use education records only to provide the Service for the school’s authorized purposes, do not disclose them except as FERPA and the school’s agreement allow, and delete or return them as the school directs. Parents and eligible students should send requests about education records to the school, and we will help the school respond.
We do not use student information for targeted advertising, do not sell it, and do not build profiles of students except to provide the Service.
Security
We protect Personal Data with administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to its sensitivity, including:
- encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and industry-standard safeguards for data at rest
- access to production systems limited to authorized staff who need it, with access logged
- separation of each user’s record so connectors and sessions reach only that user’s data
No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed without authorization. If a security breach affects your Personal Data, we will notify you, and regulators where required, without undue delay and as the law requires. To report a security concern, email hello@quadron.work.
Where data is processed
Quadron is based in the United States, and the Service is offered only in the United States. We and our service providers process your information in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, please do not use the Service; because we do not offer the Service there, cross-border transfer mechanisms such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK Addendum do not apply.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy. When we do, we will post the new version on this page with a new date. For material changes, we will tell you at least 30 days in advance by text, email, or a notice in the Service.
We will not use Personal Data we already hold in a materially different way, such as for AI training or advertising, without first getting your consent.
