Privacy and your data

Effective date: August 23, 2026

Last updated: October 19, 2026

1. Overview

Omphalis is an AI-powered content-understanding platform operated by Voxiven LLC. Omphalis helps users deeply engage with articles, PDFs, podcasts, videos, newsletters, web pages, meeting transcripts, voice notes, and other long-form content.

Our services include:

Content extraction and cleaning
Structural analysis of long-form content
Intelligent annotations and comprehension layers
Search and discovery across a user's library
Contextual connections between saved content and user-marked insights
Feed, newsletter, podcast, and YouTube subscriptions
Linked sources: browsing and importing from Readwise Reader, Zotero, and Google Drive accounts you connect

On-demand audio generation and listening features
Connections to outside assistants through MCP and similar integrations

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, when we share it, how we protect it, and the rights available to you.

Key principle: You own the content and insights you place in Omphalis. We process that information to provide and improve your personal Omphalis experience. We do not sell your data or use your content to build advertising profiles.

Voxiven LLC acts as the data controller for personal data processed in connection with account administration, billing, security, analytics, and the general operation of Omphalis. Where a business or other customer determines the purposes and means of processing content through a separate commercial arrangement, Voxiven LLC may process that content as a data processor on that customer's instructions.

Please include "Privacy & Data Requests" in the subject line where possible.

3. Information We Collect

3.1 Account and Authentication Information

When you create or use an Omphalis account, we may collect:

Email address
Authentication and session information
Login timestamps
IP address and security-related identifiers
Account status and subscription plan
Information you provide in connection with support or account recovery

Authentication is provided through Auth0. We use authentication information to create and secure your account, maintain sessions, prevent unauthorized access, and detect fraud or abuse.

3.2 Content and Library Information

When you save, upload, capture, subscribe to, or otherwise process content through Omphalis, we may collect and store:

Articles, web pages, and other written content
PDFs and other uploaded files
EPUBs, documents, and text files
Podcast episodes, audio files, and transcripts
Videos, video URLs, transcripts, and timestamp information
YouTube channel subscriptions and saved videos
RSS and Atom feed URLs
Newsletter subscriptions and related content
Meeting transcripts and voice-note recordings or transcripts
Images and other files you choose to save
Titles, URLs, authors, publication dates, and other source metadata
Reading status, bookmarks, stars, highlights, and saved snippets
Collections, folders, tags, and other organizational information
Creation, modification, and access dates
Search history and library queries where retained to provide the service

We retain library content until you delete it, subject to the retention and deletion provisions in Section 12.

3.3 Content Extraction and Cleaning

When you use Omphalis to save or process content, we may analyze the relevant source to:

Remove advertising, navigation elements, clutter, and unrelated formatting
Extract readable text from web pages, PDFs, documents, transcripts, audio, or video
Reformat content for reading, searching, listening, or analysis
Preserve relevant source structure and metadata

The source content is processed to provide the requested result and to make the content available in your Omphalis library.

3.4 Structural Analysis

Omphalis analyzes content to identify and present its structure. Depending on the type and length of the source, this may include:

Argument flow and major ideas
Information-density maps
Dense or difficult moments
Natural-pause splitting
Speaker identification or diarization
Typed moments such as INTRO, INSIGHT, DEEP DIVE, STORY, TIP, and RESEARCH
Relationships between sections, claims, examples, and supporting material
Structural information derived from podcast, audio, and video transcripts

For video and audio content, processing may involve transcription, timestamp alignment, speaker diarization, natural-pause analysis, and language-model analysis of the resulting transcript or related text.

These outputs are generated for your library and are associated with the source content from which they were derived.

3.5 Intelligent Annotations

Omphalis may generate optional comprehension annotations, including:

Source: indications that a claim may benefit from checking its supporting source
Define: explanations of terms or concepts
Expand: additional context or related information

Annotations are designed to be selective and are generally generated only where the system determines that they may assist comprehension. Omphalis uses a confidence threshold, currently 0.8, when determining whether to present an annotation. Confidence thresholds do not guarantee that an annotation is accurate.

3.6 User-Marked Annotations and Insights

You may mark paragraphs, sentences, timestamps, highlights, snippets, claims, or other moments as points of interest. You may also add notes, tags, voice notes, or other personal observations.

These user-marked annotations and insights are first-class data in Omphalis. They may be used to:

Preserve your personal reading and listening history
Organize and retrieve your library
Search for ideas and moments you previously marked
Identify connections between your saved content
Tailor the understanding profile described in Section 3.8
Provide features that depend on your own selected insights

You retain ownership of your user-marked annotations, notes, and insights. They are not sold, used to create advertising profiles, or used to train language models.

3.7 Contextual Connections

Omphalis may compare content, metadata, structural outputs, and user-marked insights within your library to identify:

Related ideas across different files
Repeated themes
Potential contradictions
Cross-domain patterns
References to similar claims or concepts
Other connections that may help you understand or revisit your content

These connections are generated for your account and are based on the content and insights available within your library and the permissions associated with your account.

3.8 Understanding Profile

To personalize the service, Omphalis may maintain a small, structured understanding profile derived from how you use your own library. This may include:

Topics you return to
Abstract labels and associated weights
Signals about how you read
Signals about what you appear to be working toward
Preferences inferred from your use of Omphalis features

The understanding profile is designed to contain abstract labels and weights rather than the underlying text of your saved content. You can view the entries in this profile through Settings and delete individual entries. Deletion takes effect immediately in the profile used to personalize your experience, subject to ordinary technical and backup processes.

The understanding profile:

Is used only to tailor your Omphalis experience
Is not sold
Is not used to create an advertising profile
Is not used for targeted advertising
Is not used to train language models

3.9 Generated Outputs and Audio

Omphalis may create outputs based on content in your library, including:

Cleaned and reformatted text
Structural maps
Information-density indicators
Transcripts
Speaker labels
Timestamps and natural-pause divisions
Intelligent annotations
Connection suggestions
Search indexes and embeddings
Voice-note or meeting transcripts
Audio generated through listening or text-to-speech features
Ask conversations, including voice sessions, which are kept as text with their sources; Omphalis does not store the audio of a voice session

These outputs may be stored with the relevant library item so that you can access, search, edit, export, or delete them.

3.10 Search Indexes and Embeddings

To support exact search, semantic search, and contextual connections, Omphalis may create search indexes and vector embeddings. An embedding is a numerical representation derived from content that helps identify semantic similarity.

Embeddings and related indexes may be derived from:

Saved content
Transcripts
Notes
User-marked insights
Structural analysis
Other information in your library

Embeddings are used to provide search and connection features for your account. They are not sold, used for advertising, or used to train third-party language models.

3.11 Browser Extension Information

If you use the Omphalis browser extension, we may collect:

URLs and titles of pages you choose to save
Text snippets you select and choose to save
The collection or destination you select
Extension settings
Your Kindle notebook's book list and the highlights and notes of the books you choose, only when you ask the extension to bring them in or turn on its daily check (see Section 3.17)
Technical information necessary to operate and secure the extension

The extension does not treat every page you view as saved content. Content is processed as part of Omphalis when you choose to save or submit it.

3.12 Mobile Application Information

If you use an Omphalis mobile application, we may collect:

Device type
Operating system and version
Application version
Application lifecycle events
Screen views and navigation patterns
Push-notification tokens, used only to deliver notifications
Technical information needed to provide, secure, and troubleshoot the application

Push-notification tokens are not sold or shared for advertising purposes.

3.13 Technical, Usage, and Diagnostic Information

We may collect:

Browser type and version
Operating system
Device type and screen resolution
Approximate technical identifiers
Access and error logs
Feature usage
Page views and navigation patterns
Performance information
Security events
Crash reports
Information about how you interact with Omphalis

We use this information to provide, maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the service.

3.14 Payment and Transaction Information

Paid subscriptions and one-time purchases are processed by Stripe. We may receive information such as:

Subscription status
Product or plan purchased
Billing country or region
Transaction identifiers
Payment status
Invoice information
Limited payment details provided by Stripe

We do not ordinarily receive or store your full payment-card number. Payment information is handled according to Stripe's terms and privacy policy.

3.15 Communications

If you contact us or receive communications from us, we may collect:

Your name and email address
The contents of your inquiry
Support history

Product requests
Other information you voluntarily provide

We use this information to respond to you, provide support, administer the service, and address security or legal matters.

3.16 Linked Sources (Readwise Reader, Zotero, and Google Drive)

Where your plan includes it, Linked sources lets you connect an account you hold with Readwise Reader, Zotero, or Google Drive, browse it from your Library, preview items, and import only the items you choose. Connecting is always your choice, and you can disconnect at any time.

What each platform shares with Omphalis

Readwise Reader: you paste an access token that Readwise issues to you. Omphalis uses it to read the documents saved in your Reader account, with their categories and tags. Readwise does not offer read-only tokens; Omphalis only reads and never changes anything in your account.
Zotero: Zotero creates a read-only key for Omphalis covering the items, collections, and attached files in your library and your groups. If you turn on Zotero annotations, the key also covers your notes, so Omphalis can bring in the annotations you made in Zotero. Omphalis refuses a key that would allow it to write.
Google Drive: Google grants Omphalis read-only access to your Drive (the "See and download all your Google Drive files" permission). Omphalis uses it only to list the files and folders in My Drive and the shared drives you belong to, search them, show thumbnails, and download a file, or export a Google Doc as a PDF, when you open a preview or start an import. Omphalis cannot create, change, move, or delete anything in your Drive.

Before you are sent to Zotero or Google to approve access, Omphalis shows you what it will read and how it will use it.

Highlights from Readwise and Zotero

If you turn on highlights, Omphalis also reads the highlights and notes you made in Readwise, and the annotations you made in Zotero, for the documents you choose, and keeps them beside the document in your Library. You can also turn on optional daily checks, which are off until you turn them on and show you a notice first. A daily check runs on Omphalis's servers, using the stored token or key, even when your browser is closed. You can turn daily checks off at any time, and you can ask for a check yourself with Check now. Highlight collections are Library content like anything else you keep.

What we store

The token or key the platform issues, encrypted, with the account name or email the platform reports, so you can see which account is connected.
For each item you import: a copy in your Library, with its title, author, and a link to its source, and a record of which source item it came from so it is not imported twice. An imported item is then Library content like anything else you save, and is processed as described in Sections 3.2 to 3.10 and Section 6 to provide your reading features.
Lists of folders and items are held briefly in server memory, for up to 15 minutes, so browsing stays quick. Previews are fetched when you open them and are not stored.

We do not log the titles, contents, or search terms of items you browse. Analytics events about Linked sources record only which platform was used and, for an import, its outcome.

Disconnecting and deletion

When you disconnect an account, Omphalis asks the platform to remove its access where the platform allows it (Zotero and Google), then deletes the stored token or key. If the platform does not confirm, Omphalis tells you where to remove its access yourself. A Readwise token cannot be withdrawn by Omphalis; to end it, create a new token in Readwise. Items you already imported stay in your Library until you delete them. If you delete your Omphalis account, connected accounts are disconnected the same way first.

Google user data

Omphalis's use of information received from Google Workspace APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy and the Google Workspace user data and developer policy, including the Limited Use requirements. In particular, data from your Google Drive is used only to provide the browsing, preview, and import features you use in Omphalis; it is not sold, not used for advertising, and not used to train general-purpose AI or machine-learning models; and people at Omphalis do not read it unless you ask us to (for example, for support), or where it is needed for security or to comply with the law.

3.17 Kindle Highlights

Where it is available to you, Omphalis can bring the highlights and notes you made in Kindle books into your Library, as one collection per book. There are two ways, and both happen only when you choose:

From a file: you add a file from your Kindle, such as My Clippings.txt, or a notebook exported from the Kindle app, and choose which of its books to bring in. Omphalis keeps the file only until those books are brought in, then deletes it; a copy left behind by an interruption is deleted within a day.
From your Kindle notebook, through the browser extension: before the first time, Omphalis shows you what will be read and what leaves your browser, and nothing is read until you confirm. The extension then reads your notebook at read.amazon.com in your own browser, using the Amazon sign-in that browser already has. Omphalis's servers never contact Amazon, and the extension never reads, stores, or sends your Amazon password or cookies. It reads only when you ask (Bring in from Amazon, or Check now), or about once a day if you turn on daily checks. Daily checks run in one browser you choose, only while it is open and signed in to Amazon, and never open a tab or window. You can turn them off at any time on the Kindle card.

What the extension sends to Omphalis

Your notebook's book list, as each book's Amazon identifier (ASIN) and the date you last highlighted in it, so Omphalis can tell which books have something new.
For the books you choose, or follow for daily checks: each book's title, author, and cover image address, and its highlights and notes with their colour, location, and page.
If you turn on daily checks: a random identifier for the browser that runs them and a label such as "Chrome on macOS", so the Kindle card can say where checks run.

Omphalis refuses, whole, any notebook page from the extension that carries anything else.

What we store

Your highlights and notes, in a collection for each book in your Library, with the book's title, author, and cover, and a record of where each highlight came from so it is not brought in twice. Covers are shown from Amazon's image servers, so your browser loads them from Amazon when you open the book.
The books you follow, your daily-check settings, and a record of each bring-in with its counts.

Highlight collections are Library content. Omphalis does not add its own annotations or summaries to them, and may create embeddings of them to find connections with the rest of your Library (Sections 3.7 and 3.10).

Changes you make in Kindle

When the extension reads a book in full again, a highlight you deleted in Kindle is removed from Omphalis too, unless you have made it your own in Omphalis, for example by adding a note to it; then it stays, labelled as removed in Kindle. A note you edited in Kindle is updated in Omphalis too, unless you have made that highlight your own.

We do not log the titles or text of your books, highlights, or notes. Analytics events about Kindle highlights record only how they were brought in, the outcome, and counts.

Removing them

You can stop following a book at any time, which leaves it out of daily checks and keeps its highlights. You can also remove everything brought in from Kindle, from the Kindle card or from Settings; highlights you have marked or written notes on stay, as your own. Removal deletes Omphalis's copy only. Omphalis never changes anything in your Kindle account. If you delete your Omphalis account, your highlights are deleted with the rest of your Library.

3.18 Pages You Publish

Omphalis can publish a public page of highlights you choose from a podcast episode. You pick up to 50 of your kept highlights, preview the page, and publish it. The page is public: anyone with the link can read the selected passages and play them, and search engines may list it. It contains only what you selected for it: the episode title, the selected transcript text, speaker and show attribution, timestamps, and anything you choose to add, such as a note on a highlight, the episode summary, or speaker biographies. It does not contain the rest of the transcript or your other highlights. Omphalis does not copy the audio; the page plays the publisher's own audio file, which also gives access to the full episode.

You can remove a page at any time from the sharing dialog or from Settings, under shared content. Removing it takes the page down. It does not remove a copy someone has already saved, or a copy a search engine has already stored.

6. Artificial Intelligence and Third-Party Processing

6.1 AI Processing

To provide structural analysis, annotations, comprehension layers, transcription, speech synthesis, video processing, contextual connections, and related features, relevant content may be processed by language-model, transcription, speech, optical-character-recognition, or artificial-intelligence providers.

The content sent to a provider may include the portion of an article, document, transcript, audio recording, video transcript, note, or other material necessary to provide the requested feature. We seek to limit transfers to the information reasonably necessary for that purpose.

6.2 AI Providers and No-Training Commitments

Depending on the feature, content may be processed through:

Anthropic API, under a commercial arrangement, for structural analysis, annotations, and related comprehension features
OpenAI API, using a paid tier, for comprehension, embedding, and related features
Cloudflare Workers AI, for retrieval, feed discovery, and structural analysis
Microsoft Azure AI Speech, for text-to-speech synthesis in listening features
Deepgram, for speech-to-text transcription of audio and video, and for recognizing speech and speaking answers aloud in Ask voice sessions
Mistral, for optical character recognition and text extraction from PDFs and scanned documents
Amazon Web Services (Amazon Bedrock), for checking that the statements in a course you ask us to build are supported by their sources
Other providers added in accordance with this Policy and our vendor-review processes

Our contractual arrangements with the providers used in our processing pipeline require that user content not be used to train their general-purpose models. Omphalis also does not use user content or user-marked insights to train language models.

These providers may process content temporarily to return the requested result, subject to their contractual obligations, security measures, and applicable retention terms. Where a provider's service is used for transcription, speech synthesis, optical character recognition, or another specialized function, only the information reasonably required for that function is sent.

6.3 Self-Hosted Speech Processing

Kokoro is self-hosted by Omphalis and used for some text-to-speech narration. Content processed through our self-hosted Kokoro deployment is not transferred to a third-party Kokoro provider.

6.4 AI-Generated Results

AI-generated results may be incomplete, inaccurate, or inappropriate. Omphalis does not guarantee that a transcript, structural analysis, annotation, connection, density indicator, summary, definition, or other generated output is accurate or complete.

You should review generated outputs against the original source, particularly before relying on them for legal, medical, financial, academic, employment, safety, or other important decisions.

8. MCP and Outside Assistant Connections

Omphalis supports connections to outside assistants and clients through MCP and similar integrations. Examples may include the ChatGPT application or another client that connects to your Omphalis library.

When you authorize or use such a connection:

The outside assistant may request information from your Omphalis library
Omphalis may send the requested content, metadata, search results, annotations, connections, or other permitted information to that assistant
The scope of information transferred depends on the request, integration, permissions, and settings
Omphalis may receive requests and responses necessary to operate the connection
Information transferred to the outside assistant is subject to that assistant's privacy policy, terms, retention practices, and use of data

You should review the privacy terms of an outside assistant before connecting it to Omphalis. Omphalis does not control how an outside assistant handles information after it has been transferred to that assistant.

9. Cookies and Local Storage

Omphalis uses cookies, local storage, and similar technologies for the following purposes.

9.1 Essential Authentication

Session cookies and related technologies help keep you signed in and maintain account security. These are used in connection with Auth0 and core Omphalis functionality.

9.2 Preferences

Local storage may preserve settings such as:

Theme selection
Last visited page
Reader preferences
Layout choices
Listening preferences
Other interface settings

9.3 Analytics

PostHog and Datadog may use cookies and local storage to measure product usage, operate feature flags, monitor performance, and provide session replay. Google Analytics may use cookies on the marketing website for website analytics.

You may clear cookies and local storage through your browser or device settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect authentication and core functionality. Where required, optional analytics cookies are controlled through a cookie-consent mechanism.

We do not sell your personal information.

We do not share your library content, user-marked insights, embeddings, understanding profile, or generated comprehension outputs for targeted advertising.

We do not use your content to build an advertising profile. We do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

We may share limited technical or usage information with analytics and infrastructure providers as described in this Policy. These providers process information to provide services to Omphalis and not to sell your library content.

11. Data Storage and Security

We maintain technical and organizational measures intended to protect personal data and user content, including:

Encryption at rest
Encryption in transit using HTTPS/TLS
Per-user data isolation
Randomized user identifiers and UUIDs
Access controls
Monitoring and error detection
Security and abuse-prevention controls
Backups and recovery procedures
Periodic review of vendors and processing arrangements

Application content and metadata are encrypted before being written to storage where supported by the applicable system. Encryption keys are held as managed secrets with restricted access, and key material is not exposed to client applications.

No security system can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and should notify us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.

12. Data Retention and Deletion

12.1 Library and User Content

Library items, collections, feed subscriptions, saved files, transcripts, generated outputs, user-marked annotations, insights, and related metadata are retained until you delete them or request deletion.

12.2 Account Information

Account data is retained while your account remains active. We may delete or deactivate accounts that have been inactive for an extended period, and we will give you advance notice by email before doing so, subject to information that must be retained for legal, security, fraud-prevention, accounting, or dispute-resolution purposes. You may also delete your account at any time from Settings.

12.3 Logs

Operational and security logs are generally retained for 90 days, unless a longer period is necessary for security investigations, legal obligations, dispute resolution, or protection of the service.

12.4 Analytics and Diagnostic Data

Analytics and diagnostic information may be retained according to the applicable provider's configuration, contractual requirements, and legitimate operational needs. We seek to limit retention to what is reasonably necessary.

12.5 Provider Processing

AI, transcription, speech, and text-extraction providers process relevant content to return the requested result. Our contractual arrangements require no training on user content and apply applicable deletion or retention restrictions. Processing and deletion timing may vary by provider and feature.

12.6 Backups

Deleted information may remain temporarily in encrypted backups until the applicable backup is overwritten or securely deleted. We may retain limited information where necessary to comply with law, prevent fraud or abuse, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, or protect security.

13. Data Export

You may export your Omphalis library through the available export functionality. Export may include your saved content, notes, user-marked annotations, insights, metadata, and other available library information in open or commonly usable formats.

Export availability and the exact contents of an export may vary by feature and technical limitations. Contact us at hello@omphalis.ai if you need assistance with an export request.

14. International Data Transfers

Omphalis primarily stores and processes application data through EU-based infrastructure where available. Some service providers, including PostHog Cloud, Datadog, and certain AI, authentication, payment, analytics, or infrastructure providers, may process information in the United States or other countries outside the European Economic Area.

Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA or another jurisdiction that requires a transfer mechanism, we rely on an applicable lawful mechanism, which may include:

An adequacy decision of the European Commission
The EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework where the recipient is certified and the transfer is covered by that framework
The European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses
Appropriate supplementary measures where required
Another lawful transfer mechanism recognized under applicable data-protection law

We assess relevant international transfers and require appropriate contractual and security protections for service providers. You may contact us to request information about the safeguards applicable to a particular transfer.

15. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the following rights:

Access personal data we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
Request deletion of personal data
Request restriction of processing
Object to processing based on legitimate interests
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
Request portability of certain personal data
Object to direct marketing
Opt out of analytics tracking and session recording
Request information about third-party recipients and international transfers
Request information about automated processing
Lodge a complaint with a supervisory or regulatory authority

You may exercise certain rights through the GDPR Rights Center in your account settings. You may also contact us at hello@omphalis.ai.

We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. We will use verification information only for the purpose of handling and securing the request, unless another lawful basis applies.

We aim to respond within 30 days. Where the GDPR applies, we will respond without undue delay and generally within one month. For complex or multiple requests, applicable law may allow an extension of up to two additional months. If an extension is necessary, we will notify you within the initial response period and explain the reason.

16. California and United States Privacy Rights

This section applies to California residents to the extent the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, or other applicable United States privacy law applies.

17. Automated Decision-Making

Omphalis uses artificial intelligence to generate structural analyses, annotations, connections, transcripts, search results, and other comprehension outputs.

These outputs are intended to assist your reading, research, and information-management activities. Omphalis does not use these outputs to make decisions about your eligibility for employment, credit, housing, insurance, education, government benefits, or other decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects.

You may contact us with questions about automated processing or request information about the principal features of the processing where required by applicable law.

18. Children's Privacy

Omphalis is not directed to children under 13 years of age.

In the European Union, Omphalis is not directed to children under 16. The applicable age may be lower where the law of the relevant EU Member State permits a lower age for consent to information-society services, but not below the legally permitted minimum.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children below the applicable age. If you believe that a child has provided personal data to Omphalis, contact us at hello@omphalis.ai. We will take reasonable steps to investigate and delete the information where required.
