This Privacy Policy explains how Nini (“nini,” “we,” “us”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information in connection with our websites, design-partner onboarding, and the Nini platform (collectively, the “Services”).
“Nini” means the applicable Nini contracting entity identified in the applicable order form, master services agreement, or other written agreement governing your organization’s use of the Services (the “Agreement”).
For website-only interactions where no Agreement exists, “Nini” refers to the entity operating the website.

If there is a conflict between this Privacy Policy and a signed data processing addendum or similar privacy terms in an Agreement (a “DPA”), the DPA controls for Customer Data.
This Privacy Policy applies to:
• Website visitors (including “Request Access” submissions)
• Design partners and prospects during onboarding
• Business customers and authorized users using the platform
If you use the Services on behalf of an organization (the “Customer”), Customer administrators may access and manage information in accordance with the Agreement.
Personal Information
Information about an identifiable individual, as defined under applicable privacy laws.
Customer Data
Data, documents, files, records, and content submitted to the Services by or on behalf of Customer, including uploaded artifacts and integration data.
Controller / Processor
In most business-to-business contexts, Customer is the controller of Customer Data and Nini is the processor/service provider processing Customer Data on Customer’s instructions, as further described in the Agreement and any DPA.
We collect information in three ways:
1. Information you provide
2. Information generated through use of the Services
3. Information provided by Customer or connected third parties
• Contact details (name, work email, phone number, role/title, company)
• Account and authentication information (login identifiers; authentication factors)
• Communications (messages, support requests, meeting notes you share)
• Contract and billing contacts (business contact details; invoice metadata)
• Usage data (feature usage, actions taken, timestamps)
• Logs and diagnostic data (IP address, device/browser information, error logs)
• Audit and evidence trails (who reviewed/approved, when, and why)
Depending on what Customer uploads or connects, the Services may process business records that can include Personal Information, such as:
• Names and contact details in invoices, statements, payroll reports, or correspondence
• Transaction line items and identifiers, remittance details, and related metadata
• Employee/vendor/customer identifiers included in source artifacts
Customer is responsible for ensuring it has lawful authority to provide such information to Nini for processing.
We use Personal Information for:
• Providing and operating the Services (authentication, access control, feature delivery)
• Security and integrity (fraud prevention, monitoring, incident detection, audit logging)
• Onboarding and pilots (configuration, evaluation, and support requested by Customer)
• Support and communications (responding to inquiries, service messages)
• Service improvement (performance, reliability, product development)
• Legal and compliance (meeting lawful requests, enforcing agreements, maintaining required records)
The Services may use automated methods (including machine learning) to propose interpretations, classify content, and support workflows.
Nini does not use Customer Data to train public or general-purpose models.
Any use of Customer Data to improve the Services is governed by the Agreement and any DPA and may include configuration tuning, quality assurance, and security activities using safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the data.
We may use de-identified and/or aggregated information (where it cannot reasonably identify an individual) for analytics and service improvement.
If Customer enables features that rely on third-party AI services, or if the Agreement permits use of subprocessors for such processing, those providers act as service providers/subprocessors under contractual restrictions to process data only to provide services to Nini.
Customers may request subprocessors information as described below.
Where applicable under Canadian privacy laws (including PIPEDA), we process Personal Information based on:
• Consent (express or implied, depending on the context)
• Contractual necessity to provide the Services
• Legitimate business purposes such as security, fraud prevention, and service improvement
Some Customer Data may include financial, payroll, banking, or transactional information that can be considered sensitive in context. We treat such information with heightened care, including access controls, audit logging, and safeguards designed for sensitive finance workflows.
You may withdraw consent where it applies, subject to legal and contractual restrictions and reasonable notice.
We use cookies and similar technologies for:
• Strictly necessary site functionality (security, session management)
• Preferences (remembering choices)
• Performance and reliability (diagnostics, uptime, page performance)
You can control cookies via browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect functionality.
We do not sell Personal Information.
We may share Personal Information with:
• Service providers and subprocessors that help operate the Services (hosting, monitoring, security, support tooling)
• Customer and its authorized users under Customer’s account administration and permissions
• Connected third parties when Customer enables integrations
• Legal and safety recipients when required to comply with law, enforce agreements, respond to lawful requests, or protect rights and safety
A current list of subprocessors relevant to the Services can be made available to Customers upon request under the Agreement and/or NDA.
Customer Data may be processed in Canada and, depending on configuration and subprocessors, may be processed in other jurisdictions.
When cross-border processing occurs, we use contractual and technical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.
Customers may request Canada-only data residency commitments through their Agreement and/or DPA.
We maintain an information security program designed to protect Personal Information and Customer Data.
No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. We continuously improve safeguards and encourage Customers to use strong authentication and access governance.
We retain Personal Information and Customer Data for as long as necessary to:
• Provide the Services and meet contractual obligations
• Comply with legal and regulatory requirements
• Maintain auditability and resolve disputes
• Enforce agreements and prevent fraud
Retention and deletion/export mechanics for Customer Data are governed by the Agreement and any DPA.
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of Personal Information, subject to applicable law.
For data processed on behalf of a Customer, requests may need to be directed through Customer’s administrator or we may refer the request to Customer to verify authorization.
To submit a request:
privacy@nini.io
We may require verification of identity and authorization before responding.
If you submit “Request Access” or otherwise provide contact information, we may send onboarding-related and service communications. Where required, you consent to receive such communications.
You may unsubscribe from non-essential communications at any time using the link provided or by contacting privacy@nini.io.
The Services are not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new effective date.
Material changes may also be communicated through the Services.
