Privacy Policy
Draft - not yet reviewed
This is a starting draft written to give the page structure and sensible defaults. Have it reviewed against how your products actually handle data and payments before pklabs.ca goes live, then delete this notice.
Last updated: 19 September 2026
This policy explains what PainKiller Labs collects when you use Ezsay, Language Match or Liquid Relay, why we collect it, and what we do not do with it. It is written to be read, not to be survived.
The short version
- We collect what a Service needs to work, plus basic billing and diagnostic data.
- We do not sell personal information, and we do not use your content to train models.
- Liquid Relay moves files directly between your own machines; those file contents do not pass through our servers.
- You can ask for a copy of your data, or its deletion, at rh@pklabs.ca.
Who is responsible
PainKiller Labs, a business registered in Canada, is the controller of personal information described here. Contact: rh@pklabs.ca.
What we collect
Account information
Email address, display name, authentication identifiers, and the plan you are on. Needed to give you an account and to contact you about it.
Content you put into a Service
Drafts and documents in Ezsay; messages and vocabulary in Language Match; device pairing details in Liquid Relay. Stored so the Service can show it back to you. In Liquid Relay, the contents of transferred files, clipboard items and screenshots travel directly between your paired devices and are not stored by us.
Payment information
Handled by our payment processor. We receive confirmation of payment, the plan, the last four digits and the expiry of a card - never the full card number.
Technical and usage data
IP address, device and browser type, timestamps, crash reports and error logs. Used to keep the Service secure and working, and to understand which features are actually used.
Why we are allowed to use it
Where the GDPR or similar law applies, our bases are: performance of a contract (running the Service you signed up for), legitimate interests (security, abuse prevention, product improvement), consent (optional marketing email, which you can withdraw at any time), and legal obligation (tax and accounting records).
Third parties we share with
We share personal information only with service providers who need it to make a Service run - hosting and database infrastructure, payment processing, transactional email, error monitoring, and, where a product feature depends on it, AI model providers. Each is bound to use the data only to provide their service to us. We also disclose information where the law requires it, and we would tell you unless legally barred from doing so.
AI model providers
Some features send your text to a third-party model provider in order to produce a result. Those requests are made for your session only. We select providers that do not train on data submitted through their API, and we do not submit your content for training ourselves.
International transfers
Our providers may process data outside Canada, including in the United States and the European Union. Where required, transfers rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
How long we keep it
Account and content data: for as long as your account is open, and for up to 30 days after deletion so that an accidental deletion can be reversed. Billing records: as long as tax law requires, typically seven years. Logs and diagnostics: normally under 12 months.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may ask us to give you a copy of your personal information, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to how we use it, or port it elsewhere. Write to rh@pklabs.ca and we will respond within 30 days. If you are in Canada and are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada; in the EEA or UK, to your local supervisory authority.
Security
We use encryption in transit, encryption at rest for sensitive fields, access controls limited to what is needed, and regular dependency updates. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and the relevant regulator as the law requires.
Children
Our products are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has given us data, write to us and we will delete it.
Cookies
We use cookies that are necessary to keep you signed in and to keep the Service secure. Where we use any analytics cookie that is not strictly necessary, we ask for consent first.
Changes
If we change this policy in a way that materially affects you, we will give notice by email or in the Service before it takes effect. The "last updated" date above always reflects the current version.
