How to read this page: Overall risk rates what Cranston AI's own policy terms mean for your prompts, outputs, and data. The benchmark bands below grade those same verified terms relative to peers — a platform in a risky-by-default category can rate HIGH risk and still grade STRONG against its peer set. Both trace to the cited findings.
Partially verified — Privacy Policy — Verified (read in full, 0 findings). Findings below are from fully-read, verified documents only; remaining core documents are pending capture.

Clause B states this Privacy Policy describes how Cranston handles personal information collected through its 'Service' for business customers, while Clause A explicitly states the policy does not apply to personal information (Customer Content) that Cranston processes on behalf of business customers through that very Service.
" This Privacy Policy does not apply to personal information that Cranston processes on behalf of a business customer as Customer Content, such as taxpayer records, tax documents, accounting records, financial account information, or other client information submitted to the Cranston platform. Cranston processes that information as a service provider or processor under its agreement with the business customer. If your information was submitted to Cranston by an accounting firm, employer, or other Cranston customer, please direct privacy requests concerning that information to that customer. We will assist our customer with requests as required by applicable law and our agreement with the customer. This Privacy Policy applies to information Cranston handles for its own business purposes, including information about website visitors, prospective customers, customer representatives, users, job applicants, and other people who interact directly with Cranston."
" This Privacy Policy describes how Cranston, Inc. ("Cranston," "we," "us," or "our") handles personal information that we collect through websites, applications, and other digital properties that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the "Service"), as well as through our sales, marketing, recruiting, support, and other business activities. Cranston provides AI-enabled tax and accounting software for accounting firms and other businesses. The Service is designed for business customers and their representatives, not for personal, family, or household use."
