Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 10, 2026

This policy explains what data Lemma collects, why, and what control you have over it. The short version: we collect what we need to run the service, your documents stay yours, and we don't sell data or run ad trackers.

1. Data we collect

Account data — your email address and name, used to create and secure your account.

Documents — the LaTeX files, bibliographies, and assets you create or upload. These are stored so you can edit, compile, and share them.

Usage metrics — basic information about how the service is used (for example, compile counts and feature usage) to operate, debug, and improve Lemma.

Payment data — subscriptions are processed by Stripe. Card numbers never touch our servers; we only receive your subscription status and billing metadata from Stripe.

2. How we use your data

We use your data to provide the service: authenticating you, storing and compiling your documents, running AI features you request, processing payments, sending essential service emails, and fixing bugs. We do not sell your data and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

3. AI processing

When you use an AI feature, the relevant document content is sent to OpenAI's API to generate the response. Under OpenAI's API terms, content sent to the API is not used to train their models. We only send content when you invoke an AI feature — your documents are not continuously analyzed in the background.

4. Storage and encryption

Your documents and account data are stored with Supabase on AWS infrastructure in the US East region. Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest.

5. Cookies

Lemma uses cookies only to keep you signed in (authentication session). We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels.

6. Data retention

We keep your account data and documents for as long as your account exists. Operational logs are kept for a limited period needed for security and debugging, then deleted. Stripe retains billing records as required for financial and tax compliance.

7. Account deletion

You can delete your account yourself from your account settings. Doing so erases your documents and account data from our systems. Residual copies in backups are removed as those backups expire.

8. Your rights

You can access your data (your documents are exportable at any time, and your account details are visible in settings), correct it, or erase it by deleting your account. If you are in a jurisdiction with data protection laws such as the GDPR, these correspond to your rights of access, rectification, and erasure. To exercise any right you cannot handle self-service, email us and we will respond promptly.

9. Subprocessors

We rely on a small set of providers to run Lemma:

  • Vercel — application hosting
  • Supabase — authentication, database, and document storage
  • Stripe — payment processing
  • OpenAI — AI features (API only; not used for model training)

10. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy in a material way, we will notify you by email or in the app before the change takes effect.
