Privacy Policy

v1.0Effective April 17, 2026

1. Who we are

Foundry SMB LLC ("we," "us," "Foundry") is a Colorado limited liability company. We publish the Psygil desktop application and operate psygil.com. You can reach our privacy team at privacy@psygil.com.

2. What this covers

This policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and retain personal information processed through the Psygil website, the Psygil desktop application, and our sales and support operations. It does not cover the content of clinical records created inside Psygil. Those records are created, stored, and controlled by you. Psygil is a local-first application; clinical content remains on the clinician's workstation.

3. What we collect

Account and fulfillment data. When you purchase a subscription or request a trial, we collect your name, email address, organization name, license tier, billing identifiers from Stripe, device fingerprint tied to your seat token, and your IP address at the time of purchase.

Support, sales, and feedback data. When you submit a form on this site or email us, we receive whatever you send. We ask you not to include protected health information (PHI) unless you are a Practice or Enterprise customer under a signed Business Associate Agreement. Feedback submissions may be anonymous unless you choose to provide contact details.

Website analytics. We run Cloudflare Web Analytics for aggregate visit statistics. Cloudflare does not set cookies for this product and does not profile you across sites. Our CDN logs retain IP, user agent, referrer, and request path for up to 30 days for security and troubleshooting.

Desktop application data. After activation, Psygil runs offline. The only network traffic to our servers is a daily license refresh (the device fingerprint, license status, and JWT). Clinical content, patient identifiers, test scores, interview notes, and draft reports never reach our servers in the default configuration.

3.1 Zero-Retention Architecture

Psygil is a local-first desktop application. Before any supported model call, the local UNID redaction pipeline removes HIPAA Safe Harbor identifiers from the text. The redaction manifest, including identifier categories and counts removed, is recorded and can be surfaced in the application UI. The model call goes out with zero HIPAA identifiers.

Architecturally, we cannot retain PHI we never receive.

This is why our compliance position is stronger than a zero-retention policy. A policy is a promise. Our architecture is proof.

4. How we use it

  • To provide the product. Account creation, license issuance, seat management, installer delivery, and activation verification.
  • To support customers. Responding to your emails and form submissions.
  • To operate the business. Invoicing, fraud prevention, debugging, and legal compliance.
  • To communicate. Transactional messages about your license, security alerts, policy updates, and product updates when you explicitly opt in.

We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information with advertisers. We do not use your content to train AI models.

5. Legal bases (GDPR and UK GDPR)

For visitors subject to the EU or UK GDPR, our legal bases are:

  • Contract. Processing necessary to provide the Psygil subscription you purchased.
  • Legitimate interest. Security monitoring, aggregate analytics, and fraud prevention, balanced against your rights.
  • Legal obligation. Tax, accounting, and records required by applicable law.
  • Consent. For any optional marketing communications, clearly opted in.

6. Sharing with processors

We rely on a small set of processors to run the service. Each is bound by a data processing agreement and, where applicable, a Business Associate Agreement.

  • Stripe, Inc. Payment processing.
  • Resend, Inc. Transactional email delivery.
  • Cloudflare, Inc. Website hosting, CDN, Workers, D1 database, R2 object storage, and aggregate analytics.

We do not disclose personal information to other third parties except: (a) with your instruction, (b) to our attorneys, accountants, or insurers under a duty of confidence, (c) in a business transfer where the acquirer assumes this policy, or (d) when required by law.

7. International transfers

Our processors are primarily in the United States. For transfers from the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses issued by the European Commission and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum. A copy of the transfer mechanism is available on request.

8. Retention

  • Account and fulfillment records: for the life of the subscription, plus seven years for tax and accounting.
  • Support tickets and sales inquiries: twenty-four months from the last interaction, unless a longer period is legally required.
  • CDN and security logs: up to thirty days.
  • Marketing contacts: until you withdraw consent.

9. Your rights

You have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or port your personal information. You may object to processing based on legitimate interest. EU and UK residents may lodge a complaint with their supervisory authority. California residents may exercise rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, including the right to know, delete, correct, and opt out of any sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA.

To exercise any right, email privacy@psygil.com. We verify the request against the account email on file and respond within thirty days, or forty-five where allowed. We do not charge for the first request in a twelve-month period.

10. Children

Psygil is a professional tool intended for licensed clinicians. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under sixteen. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact privacy@psygil.com and we will delete it.

11. Security

We use industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information under our control. These include encryption in transit, encryption at rest for customer databases, least-privilege access, logging, vendor due diligence, and an incident response plan. See the Security and Responsible Disclosure policy for the researcher-facing contact.

12. Cookies and similar technologies

Psygil does not use advertising cookies. The website sets a minimal set of functional and security cookies (for example, session protection on the license server). Cloudflare Web Analytics operates without cookies. Browsers that send a Global Privacy Control signal are treated as opt-out of any "sale" or "sharing" under the CCPA, even though we do not engage in either.

13. Changes to this policy

We version this policy. The version number changes on material updates. We notify active customers of material changes by email at least thirty days before the new version takes effect.

Terms of Service

v1.0Effective April 17, 2026

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you (or the organization you represent, "Customer") and Foundry SMB LLC ("Foundry," "we," "us"). By purchasing a subscription, activating Psygil, or using psygil.com beyond browsing, you accept these Terms. If you do not accept these Terms, do not use Psygil.

2. Definitions

  • Software. The Psygil desktop application and related updates we provide.
  • Subscription. The monthly license granted under the tier you purchase (Solo, Practice, or Enterprise).
  • Seat. A single authorized user bound to a device fingerprint.
  • PHI. Protected Health Information as defined in 45 CFR 160.103 under HIPAA.
  • Customer Data. Clinical records, intake fields, test scores, notes, drafts, and signed reports that Customer creates, imports, or stores inside the Software on Customer-controlled systems.

3. License grant

Subject to Customer's compliance with these Terms and payment of fees, Foundry grants Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the Software during the Subscription term, on the number of Seats purchased, for Customer's own professional psychological work. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

4. Restrictions

Customer shall not, and shall not permit any third party to:

  • reverse engineer, decompile, or derive source code from the Software, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits;
  • remove, alter, or obscure proprietary notices, license signatures, attestation strings, or audit-log entries;
  • share, resell, rent, sublicense, or transfer Seats or license keys;
  • circumvent the Software's decision gates or cause the Writer agent to produce a report without a rendered diagnostic decision;
  • use Software outputs to train, fine-tune, or benchmark any machine-learning model that competes with Psygil;
  • use the Software to violate any applicable law, regulation, or professional ethics code; or
  • use the Software on behalf of a person who is not a licensed clinician, or to produce evaluations the authoring clinician has not personally reviewed and signed.

5. Clinical responsibility

The clinician diagnoses. Psygil does not. The Software organizes evidence, proposes diagnoses for clinician review, and drafts language. It does not practice medicine, psychology, or any other licensed profession. It does not sign reports. Customer is solely responsible for all clinical judgments, for the accuracy and appropriateness of every rendered diagnosis, and for the ethical and legal sufficiency of any report the clinician signs. Use of the Software does not create a clinician-patient relationship with Foundry.

6. Fees and billing

Subscriptions are billed monthly in advance at the rates published at psygil.com/download or set out in an Enterprise order form. Fees are in United States dollars and are exclusive of applicable taxes. We may change prices on thirty days' written notice, effective at the next renewal. Failure to pay within ten days of invoice date may result in suspension of the Subscription.

7. Term, renewal, cancellation

Each monthly Subscription renews automatically until Customer cancels. Customer may cancel at any time through the Stripe Customer Portal or by emailing billing@psygil.com. Upon cancellation, access continues through the end of the current billing period and the Subscription does not renew. Fees already paid are not refunded. See the Refund Policy tab.

8. Intellectual property

Foundry owns all right, title, and interest in the Software, psygil.com, and any improvements, modifications, and derivatives, including feedback Customer provides. Customer owns Customer Data. Foundry claims no license over Customer Data beyond what is strictly necessary to provide the Software, and in the default local-first configuration Foundry does not receive Customer Data.

9. Confidentiality

Each party will protect the other party's non-public information using at least the care it uses for its own confidential information of similar importance, and will use it only to perform this agreement. These obligations do not apply to information that is public, already known, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law after reasonable notice to the other party.

10. Warranty disclaimer

THE SOFTWARE AND WEBSITE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." FOUNDRY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. FOUNDRY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET EVERY REQUIREMENT, OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION, BE ERROR-FREE, OR PRODUCE ANY PARTICULAR CLINICAL OR LEGAL OUTCOME.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EACH PARTY'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE FEES PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER TO FOUNDRY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY. THESE LIMITS DO NOT APPLY TO A PARTY'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS, A BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY, CUSTOMER'S PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS, OR A PARTY'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

12. Indemnification

Customer will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Foundry from and against third-party claims arising out of: (a) Customer's use of the Software in violation of these Terms or applicable law, (b) Customer Data, (c) Customer's clinical work, including any diagnosis, evaluation, report, or testimony, and (d) Customer's breach of professional ethics. Foundry will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Customer from and against third-party claims that the Software, as provided and used in accordance with these Terms, infringes a United States patent, copyright, or trade secret, subject to the cap in Section 11.

13. Suspension and termination

Foundry may suspend or terminate access on notice if Customer materially breaches these Terms and does not cure within ten days, if required by law, or if Customer's use presents a security risk to the Software or other customers. Customer may terminate by cancelling the Subscription. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including Sections 5, 8, 10, 11, 12, and 14.

14. Governing law; disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict of laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply. The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Denver County, Colorado, for any dispute, subject to the informal-resolution step below. Each party waives any right to a jury trial to the fullest extent permitted by law. Each party waives any right to participate in a class, collective, or representative action against the other. Before filing suit, the parties will attempt to resolve any dispute in good faith for at least thirty days, starting with written notice to legal@psygil.com.

15. Miscellaneous

These Terms, together with any order form and the other policies linked on this page, are the entire agreement between the parties on this subject. Neither party may assign this agreement without the other party's consent, except in a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all assets. Notices under these Terms must be in writing and sent to the email addresses listed in the Overview. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.

Acceptable Use Policy

v1.0Effective April 17, 2026

This policy lists conduct that is prohibited while using Psygil or psygil.com. It supplements, and is incorporated into, the Terms of Service. Violation may result in suspension or termination of the Subscription without refund.

1. Prohibited uses

  • Using the Software to violate any law, regulation, court order, or the ethics code of Customer's profession.
  • Presenting AI-generated output as a clinician-rendered diagnosis, opinion, or signature.
  • Circumventing or attempting to circumvent any decision gate, attestation step, or audit-log entry.
  • Reverse engineering, tampering with the license server, or attempting to generate unauthorized JWTs or installers.
  • Sharing license keys, Seat tokens, or credentials with anyone outside the licensed Seat.
  • Using the Software on behalf of an unlicensed person, or to produce evaluations a clinician has not personally reviewed and signed.
  • Using the Software to harass, defame, or discriminate against a person, or to prepare records the Customer knows to be fraudulent.
  • Uploading malware, or attempting to introduce malicious code into the Software, the website, or our infrastructure.
  • Using the Software's outputs to train or benchmark any product that competes with Psygil.
  • Using automated scraping, bots, or denial-of-service tools against psygil.com, the license server, or any Foundry infrastructure.

2. Reporting violations

Report suspected violations to legal@psygil.com. Security vulnerabilities should go through the Security tab.

3. Consequences

Foundry may take any of the following steps, alone or together: warn Customer, suspend the Subscription, terminate Seats, refuse future service, notify affected parties, or cooperate with law enforcement. Fees already paid are not refunded where Customer has materially breached this policy.

Refund Policy

v1.0Effective April 17, 2026

1. Monthly subscriptions are non-refundable

Psygil is sold as a monthly subscription. All fees are earned when charged. Cancellation stops the next renewal; it does not refund the current period. Customer retains access through the end of the current billing period.

2. Enterprise setup fees

The one-time Enterprise setup fee is non-refundable once work has begun. Monthly seat fees invoiced under an Enterprise agreement are non-refundable after the billing period begins. Early termination provisions, if any, are set out in the order form.

3. Narrow exceptions

Foundry may, at its discretion, issue a refund or credit in the following situations:

  • A material defect prevented Customer from using the Software for a full billing period and was not resolved within a reasonable time after Customer reported it through support.
  • A duplicate charge, a billing error by Foundry, or a mistaken charge on a closed account.
  • A refund required by applicable consumer-protection law that Customer may not waive.

4. How to request

Email billing@psygil.com from the account email on file, with the invoice identifier and a description of the issue. We acknowledge receipt within two business days and resolve within ten business days. Approved refunds are issued to the original payment method.

5. Chargebacks

Initiating a chargeback with a payment network without first contacting billing@psygil.com may result in immediate suspension of the Subscription and termination of access, in addition to any dispute-response fees.

Support Policy and SLA

v1.0Effective April 17, 2026

1. Hours and channels

Support hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 to 18:00 Mountain Time, excluding United States federal holidays. Primary channels are support@psygil.com and the support form. Enterprise customers also have access to a named technical contact.

2. Severity definitions

  • Critical. Activation failure, signature failure, or any defect that prevents a report from being written or filed.
  • General. A bug, unexpected behavior, a question, or a feature request that does not block a report.
  • Best effort. Requests from prospective customers who are evaluating Psygil without an active Subscription.

3. Response targets

Response means a human has read the ticket and replied within the window below. Resolution time depends on severity and reproducibility and is not part of the SLA.

TierCriticalGeneral
Solo1 business day2 business days
Practice4 business hours1 business day
Enterprise2 business hours1 business day
EvaluatingBest effortBest effort

4. Out of scope

Support does not include: custom software development, integration with third-party clinical systems beyond our documented interfaces, infrastructure Customer operates, training on Customer's internal processes, legal advice, or clinical guidance. We do not render, review, or sign clinical opinions.

5. Customer responsibilities

For efficient support, Customer should provide: the Psygil version number, operating system, a clear description of what happened and what was expected, the steps to reproduce, and any non-PHI log excerpts we request. Customers must not include PHI in support communications unless a Business Associate Agreement is in force.

Security and Responsible Disclosure

v1.0Effective April 17, 2026

1. Scope

This policy covers: psygil.com, Cloudflare Pages Functions under psygil.com, the license API (api.psygil.com), and the Psygil desktop application installers we publish. Out of scope: third-party services we depend on (Stripe, Resend, Cloudflare), social engineering of Foundry staff, and denial-of-service tests.

2. How to report

Send findings to security@psygil.com. Describe the issue, steps to reproduce, affected components, and the impact you believe it has. A PGP key is available on request. We acknowledge every report within five business days.

3. Safe harbor

Foundry will not pursue legal action, issue a takedown, or refer to law enforcement any researcher who in good faith complies with this policy. "Good faith" means: you stay within scope, you stop as soon as you have enough information to confirm the issue, you do not access or modify data that is not yours, you do not exfiltrate data beyond what is needed to demonstrate the issue, you do not disrupt service or users, and you give us a reasonable time to fix before public disclosure.

4. What to avoid

  • Testing against production customer accounts without written permission.
  • Automated scanners that generate high volumes of traffic.
  • Accessing, copying, or destroying data that is not yours.
  • Public disclosure before a fix is shipped, unless we fail to respond within thirty days or explicitly agree.

5. Disclosure

Once a fix is available, we will credit the researcher by name or handle, if they wish, in release notes or a security advisory. A formal bug-bounty program with monetary rewards is not offered at this time.

HIPAA Notice

v1.0Effective April 17, 2026

1. Local-first posture

Psygil is designed so that protected health information (PHI), as defined in 45 CFR 160.103, remains on the clinician's workstation. Intake fields, test scores, interview content, drafts, and signed reports are stored locally. In the default configuration, Foundry's servers do not create, receive, maintain, or transmit PHI.

2. When Foundry may become a Business Associate

PHI can reach us through narrow channels: support tickets that include identifying details, crash reports if Customer enables them, or future features that Customer elects to use that route content through our infrastructure. For Practice and Enterprise tiers, Foundry will enter into a Business Associate Agreement ("BAA") on request to cover those incidental flows.

3. Tier availability

Solo
No BAA available. Solo customers must not include PHI in support tickets or any other communication with Foundry.
Practice
BAA available on request. Required before any transmission of PHI to Foundry.
Enterprise
BAA available on request and is part of standard Enterprise contracting.

4. Subcontractors

If a BAA is in force, Foundry flows down HIPAA obligations to its subcontractors that may come into contact with PHI, including Cloudflare, Stripe, and Resend, each of which offers a BAA. Foundry maintains administrative, physical, and technical safeguards consistent with 45 CFR 164.308, 164.310, and 164.312.

5. Breach notification

If Foundry discovers a breach of unsecured PHI, Foundry will notify the affected Covered Entity without unreasonable delay and in no case later than sixty days after discovery, consistent with 45 CFR 164.410.

6. Customer responsibilities

Customer, as the Covered Entity, is responsible for: lawful collection of PHI, patient authorizations, minimum-necessary disclosures, workstation security, user access controls on the clinician's device, and reporting breaches that occur on Customer-controlled systems. Psygil's decision gates and audit log help, but do not discharge, these obligations.

7. Requesting a BAA

Email legal@psygil.com from the account email on file. Include the legal name of the Covered Entity, the authorized signer, and the tier. Our standard BAA is based on the HHS sample BAA and can be sent for signature through our e-signature provider.
