Watch: Privacy and data use
Start here. These are the highest-risk verified clauses AIRIN found in the platform's own policy text.
Introduces the category of automatically logged information collected by the company, service providers, and platform partners about the contributor, their device, and their interactions over time — establishes the scope of automatic data collection.
Permits creation of aggregated, de-identified, or anonymized information from collected personal data for any lawful purpose including internal analytics and sharing with third parties; prohibits re-identification attempts by the platform itself and contractually requires recipients not to attempt re-identification, establishing both a broad use permission and a protective anti-re-identification restriction.
Permits sharing of personal information with vendors acting on the platform's behalf under written contracts that restrict vendor use of personal information to providing services, establishing a contractual limitation on subprocessor use.

Only citation-backed plan differences are shown here; absent cells mean AIRIN has not verified a tier-specific claim.
Defines the category 'Government-issued identification information' including tax-identification numbers, driver's license, passport number, and identity-document images; clarifies that this information is provided directly to the payout provider and the company receives only verification-status results, not the underlying identification data — protective clarification limiting the company's receipt of sensitive government ID data.
" Government-issued identification information — for example, your Social Security or other tax-identification number, driver’s license or state identification number, passport number, and (where required) an image of the identification docu..."
Describes on-device microphone and speech-recognition use limited to detecting start/stop voice commands for hands-free recording; explicitly states that command audio is processed only on-device in real time, is not recorded, stored, added to clips, or transmitted off-device — protective restriction prohibiting off-device transmission or retention of command audio, distinguishing this from the separate Voice Exchange feature.
" For video capture, the app also uses your device's microphone and on-device speech recognition to detect your spoken "start recording" and "stop recording" commands, so you can record hands-free. That command audio is processed only on you..."
Establishes the platform's retention obligations and practices: retaining personal information as long as needed to provide the Service, operate the business (payouts, fraud reviews, tax), and comply with legal obligations; retaining account information while active and for a reasonable post-closure period; and retaining rejected submissions only for the limited time needed to administer reviews — defining specific retention periods tied to functional and legal purposes.
" We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the Service to you, to operate our business (including paying contributors, calculating earnings, performing fraud and quality reviews, and meeting tax and accounting obligati..."
Identifies business-transaction counterparties as a third-party source from which personal information may be received in connection with mergers, acquisitions, financing, or similar transactions, cross-referencing a later section for details — defines a data-sharing trigger event.
" Business-transaction counterparties — we may receive personal information in connection with an actual or prospective merger, acquisition, financing, or similar transaction described in Section 6."
Describes a quality-assurance process involving two parts: on-device MediaPipe analysis and transmission of individual still frames (approximately one per minute) to the Google Gemini API for task-relevance checking; states that full recordings, motion data, and on-device biometric landmarks are not sent; states that under the arrangement with this provider frames are used solely to return a relevance result — defines the scope of data shared with this AI service subprocessor and imposes a use-limitation on that provider.
" Quality-assurance analysis has two parts. The hand-visibility analysis described above (MediaPipe) runs entirely on your device. Separately, to confirm that a clip shows the assigned task, the app sends a small number of still video frames..."
Identifies specific subprocessors handling real-time audio (LiveKit), automated scoring (Google Gemini API), and cloud storage, and states they process voice data on behalf of the platform under contract, disclosing the subprocessor chain for voice data.
" Service providers. Real-time conversation audio is carried and recorded via LiveKit; automated assessment scoring uses the Google Gemini API; recordings are stored with our cloud hosting provider. These providers process voice data on our ..."
Permits the platform to include approved recording datasets (video, IMU, motion, calibration, and metadata) in licensed datasets shared with AI and robotics customers under written agreements; those agreements impose use restrictions, prohibit re-identification except as permitted, and require confidentiality — the protective contractual safeguards are noted as obligations on recipients.
" A core purpose of the Service is to license approved recording datasets to AI and robotics customers. When we approve a submission, we may include the recording itself (first-person video, IMU and motion data, camera-calibration data, and ..."
Clause A states that full recordings, which would include voice data, are not sent to the Google Gemini API, while Clause B indicates that the Google Gemini API processes voice data.
" Quality-assurance analysis has two parts. The hand-visibility analysis described above (MediaPipe) runs entirely on your device. Separately, to confirm that a clip shows the assigned task, the app sends a small number of still video frames — approximately one per minute while you are recording — to an automated AI service, the Google Gemini API, which returns a relevance result. Only individual still frames are sent for this check; your full recordings, your motion data, and the on-device biometric landmarks are not. Under our arrangement with this provider, the frames are used solely to return the relevance result, are not retained by the provider after the check, and are not used to train the provider's models. We disclose this check to you in the app before you record, and you consent to it as part of recording. We do not otherwise transmit your recordings or the biometric landmarks derived from them to any third party for automated quality review."
" Service providers. Real-time conversation audio is carried and recorded via LiveKit; automated assessment scoring uses the Google Gemini API; recordings are stored with our cloud hosting provider. These providers process voice data on our behalf under contract."
Within one documentClause A describes sending still video frames to a third-party AI service as an operational process, while Clause B states that sharing personal information with third parties only occurs when the user directs or authorizes it.

AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" We may share personal information with other third parties when you direct or authorize us to do so — for example, when you choose to connect your Human Archive account to a third-party service."
Permits sharing personal information with third parties when the user directs or authorizes such sharing, conditioning the permission on user instruction — for example when connecting an account to a third-party service.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Recordings and metadata that we have already approved and incorporated into datasets licensed to AI or robotics customers, which we will continue to handle in accordance with the applicable customer license and our recordkeeping obligations."
Carves out an exception to deletion obligations for recordings and metadata already approved and incorporated into datasets licensed to AI or robotics customers, specifying that such data will continue to be handled under the applicable customer license and recordkeeping obligations rather than being deleted — a retention exception tied to existing commercial licensing.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" The Service is intended only for individuals who are at least 18 years old. The Service is not directed to, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from, anyone under 18. You must confirm that you are at least 18 when you create a contributor account, and you must not allow anyone under 18 to use your account or appear as the primary recording subject in any submission."
Restricts Service use to individuals at least 18 years old, prohibits collection of personal information from those under 18, and imposes obligations on the contributor not to allow minors to use their account or appear as primary recording subjects — protective restriction limiting data collection from minors.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" For video capture, the app also uses your device's microphone and on-device speech recognition to detect your spoken "start recording" and "stop recording" commands, so you can record hands-free. That command audio is processed only on your device, in real time, to recognize those commands; it is not recorded, stored, added to your clips, or transmitted off your device. This paragraph describes video capture only. Voice Exchange (section 4.4) is a separate, optional feature that does record, store, and share your voice."
Describes on-device microphone and speech-recognition use limited to detecting start/stop voice commands for hands-free recording; explicitly states that command audio is processed only on-device in real time, is not recorded, stored, added to clips, or transmitted off-device — protective restriction prohibiting off-device transmission or retention of command audio, distinguishing this from the separate Voice Exchange feature.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Eligibility. Voice Exchange is limited to contributors 18 and older."
Restricts Voice Exchange participation to contributors aged 18 and older, imposing an eligibility limitation that protects against collection of biometric data from minors.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" We use limited analytics within the app to operate and improve the Service. We do not use the Service to display third-party advertising to contributors or to share personal information with advertising networks for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals from web browsers because there is no industry-standard interpretation of those signals."
Restricts the company's use of analytics to operating and improving the Service; prohibits use of the Service to display third-party advertising to contributors or to share personal information with advertising networks for cross-context behavioral advertising; and states the company does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals due to absence of industry-standard interpretation — user-favorable on advertising and data sharing restrictions.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Payment, tax, KYC, and anti-fraud records that we are required to retain by law."
Carves out an exception to deletion by permitting retention of payment, tax, KYC, and anti-fraud records where legally required, limiting the scope of the account-deletion right.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Records reasonably necessary to detect security incidents, investigate fraud or abuse, defend or assert legal claims, or comply with law."
Carves out an additional exception to deletion for records reasonably necessary for security incident detection, fraud or abuse investigation, legal claim defense or assertion, or legal compliance, permitting continued retention of personal information after account deletion for these purposes.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Licensing approved recording datasets and associated metadata to AI and robotics customers, as described in Section 6."
Permits licensing of approved recording datasets and associated metadata to AI and robotics customers, establishing the commercial data-licensing activity as an explicit purpose of personal information use.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Human Archive, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Human Archive,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), operates the Human Archive mobile application and related contributor services (collectively, the “Service”). The Service lets adult contributors record first-person video of everyday tasks and household activities, submit those recordings to us, and earn payouts for submissions that we approve. We then process those recordings and license the resulting datasets to artificial-intelligence and robotics customers to help improve embodied AI systems. The Service also offers an optional voice feature (“Voice Exchange”) in which contributors complete a spoken language assessment and take part in live two-party voice conversations that we record, store, and process as biometric data; this is described in section 4.4."
Defines the company, its corporate form, the Service, the contributor role, and the core business model — specifically that recordings are processed and the resulting datasets are licensed to AI and robotics customers to improve embodied AI systems. This is a foundational definition establishing the commercial and data-use context.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" This Privacy Policy describes the personal information we collect from and about contributors through the Service, how we use and share that information, and the choices and rights available to you. By creating a contributor account or otherwise using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy."

Establishes a procedure for reporting and remedying inadvertent collection of personal information from minors, specifying that the company will take steps to delete that information and terminate associated accounts — user-favorable deletion obligation.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Because the Service records first-person video of everyday tasks in homes and businesses, your recordings may capture other people, their voices, their property, identifying documents, screens, signage, addresses, license plates, and similar information. You are responsible for obtaining any consents or permissions required by law from other adults present, and for following any task-specific instructions we provide about excluding bystanders, minors, sensitive surroundings, and prohibited content. We may reject, redact, or delete any submission that contains content we determine is non-compliant."Permalink to this finding →
Places affirmative obligations on the contributor to obtain legally required consents from other adults captured in recordings and to follow task-specific instructions excluding bystanders and prohibited content; also grants the company discretion to reject, redact, or delete non-compliant submissions — operative obligations on both parties regarding third-party personal data captured in recordings.
AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
" Before each recording session, we present a consent confirmation that you must affirmatively accept. We log that confirmation, along with the task you selected and basic session metadata, as part of the Submission and QA information described below."Permalink to this finding →
Describes the pre-recording consent confirmation procedure — the contributor must affirmatively accept before each session, and the company logs that confirmation along with task and session metadata as part of Submission and QA information.

Clause detail — protections, your obligations, and coverage
Every clause below is a verbatim quote from Human Archive's own published policy, read in full and linked to its exact location. Protections and user obligations are reported separately from risk because they are different kinds of clause — an obligation on you is not a risk to your data. Informational only, not legal advice.
✅ Protections found
0 verified clausesClauses in Human Archive's policies that work in your favour — commitments the platform made to you.
No protective clause has been verified in Human Archive's published policies yet. That means we did not find one in the documents we read — not that the platform offers nothing.

Cross-clause notes
Two verified clauses intersect on the same subject matter: the Privacy Policy, § 12.2 (Account and data deletion) addresses how long content is retained, and the Privacy Policy, § 12.2 (Account and data deletion) addresses use of content in connection with model training or service improvement. Both clauses are in force at the same time — read them together.
Verified retention clauses point in different directions: the Privacy Policy, § 4.4 (Voice & biometric data (Voice Exchange)) describes broad or open-ended retention, while the Privacy Policy, § 12.2 (Account and data deletion) describes deletion or erasure. Which clause controls in a given situation is not resolved by the documents' text alone — this is surfaced as an ambiguity, treated as Caution.
