6. How We Collect Personal Data
We collect personal data directly from you, automatically through the operation of the service, and from third-party sign-in providers if you choose to use them.
7. How We Use Personal Data
We use personal data to create and manage your account, provide the Kinri service, personalise responses, save your history, improve reliability and safety, respond to support requests, send service-related messages, send newsletters or updates (if you consent), and maintain security and compliance.
8. Health-Related and Inferred Data
Some information you provide may reveal or allow us to infer information about your emotional wellbeing or mental health. We use this only to provide reflective support and personalisation, not for clinical diagnosis or medical decision-making.
9. AI, Personalisation, and Profiling
Kinri includes AI-assisted reflective support. To provide useful responses, Kinri may process your current message together with relevant recent context, profile information, and service state information. Kinri also uses internal logic, scoring, and flags to personalise certain parts of the service. This is for reflective support and personalisation, not for legal, insurance, or employment decisions.

Service Communications: account, login, security, support, and important service or policy updates. You may still receive these where necessary even if you opt out of marketing.
Marketing Communications: newsletters, launch updates, and promotional messages. We will only send these where we have a valid basis, usually your consent. You can unsubscribe at any time.
11. Who We Share Personal Data With
We may share personal data with trusted third-party service providers that help us operate Kinri (hosting, authentication, database, analytics, communications, AI, professional/legal support). We may also share data where required by law or to protect rights, safety, or security. We do not sell your personal data or allow marketing/CRM systems to access in-app reflective or wellbeing content.
12. International Transfers
Our service providers and team members may be located outside the UK. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we use appropriate safeguards recognised under data protection law.
13. How Long We Keep Data
We do not keep identifiable personal data for longer than needed. Account and service data is kept while your account is active. Deleted content is removed from live systems within a reasonable period. Some backup copies may remain temporarily. Marketing records are kept until you unsubscribe or become inactive. Anonymised aggregate information may be kept longer.
14. Your Rights
Depending on your location and law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing, withdraw consent, opt out of marketing, or request a copy of your data. To make a privacy request, contact kinri@serenumlabsltd.com. We may need to verify your identity.
15. In-Product Controls
Kinri may provide ways for you to delete content, delete account data, manage communication preferences, or request changes to how certain data is used. Where a control is not self-serve, contact us and we will review your request.
16. Safety and Emergencies
Kinri is not an emergency service and is not monitored in real time by a human crisis team. If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, contact local emergency services immediately. Automated safety prompts may be shown, but Kinri does not provide live crisis monitoring or contact emergency services on your behalf.
17. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Kinri may use cookies and similar technologies to run, secure, and improve the service. Some are strictly necessary; others may require additional notice or consent. Where required, we will provide additional information or a separate Cookie Notice.
18. Security
