Harvey's privacy policy explicitly carves out platform inputs, outputs and uploaded documents, pushing those terms into a separate customer agreement that public readers cannot see, while the policy itself documents sharing, transfers and a named data protection officer in detail.
What Harvey's privacy policy and terms of service say about your data
Inputs and outputs sit outside the policy
The policy states it does not apply to any input or output generated on the platform or to documents uploaded to it, so how prompts and uploaded legal documents are used is governed only by a customer agreement that is not published.
No retention period is named
Retention is described as lasting as long as necessary for the purposes in the policy, with deletion deferred to the terms of a customer agreement, and no number of days, months or years appears anywhere.
Advertising sharing may count as a sale
Harvey states it does not sell personal data for payment, then acknowledges that sharing email addresses, device information and website interactions with advertising partners may be considered a sale or sharing under the CCPA, with opt-out offered through a Your Privacy Choices page and the Global Privacy Control signal.
Transfers and privacy contact are concrete
International transfers name the Standard Contractual Clauses issued on 4 June 2021 under Article 46(2) GDPR plus EU-U.S., UK and Swiss Data Privacy Framework certification, and the policy names an external data protection officer with a postal address and dedicated mailbox.
What the policy is silent or vague on
- Not stated: keeping user inputs out of model training
- Not stated: a way to opt out of training
- Not stated: whether training use differs by plan
- Not stated: a deletion timeline after closure or request
