Kind Horse LLC โ kindhorse.com
1. Who we are
Kind Horse LLC is a software company based in Missouri, USA. We offer our service primarily to users in the United States.
Application data is stored using cloud infrastructure that may include servers in the United States and the European Union (for example, our database host in Frankfurt, Germany).
Questions or privacy requests: support@kindhorse.com.
2. What data we collect
Account information: name, email address, phone number, password (hashed)
Horse and barn data you enter: health records, care logs, schedules, expenses, facility details
Uploaded documents: vet records, Coggins certificates, invoices, photos, and other files you choose to upload
AI processing: when you use smart document or invoice import, we send the file to our AI provider and store extracted fields, processing logs (feature used, model, success, token counts, latency), and your review choices
Usage data: pages visited, features used, session duration, and interaction patterns
Device and technical data: IP address, browser type, operating system, and approximate location derived from IP
Payment information: processed by Stripe โ we do not store card numbers
IP address and timestamp at time of consent
Advertising and analytics data from partners when you use the service (see Cookies and tracking)
3. How we use your data
To provide and operate the service you signed up for
To run AI-assisted import features you request
To send operational emails you opt into (reminders, task assignments, and similar)
To display advertising and measure ad performance
To analyze usage, improve the product, and develop aggregated or de-identified insights
To share information with commercial partners as described below
To comply with law and protect the security of our users and systems
4. AI processing of uploads
When you use smart document import or vaccination invoice import, we send the file you select to Anthropic (our AI provider) to classify the document and extract structured fields.
This processing happens only when you start an import โ ordinary document uploads without smart import are stored but not sent for AI extraction.
Under Anthropic's commercial API terms, content submitted through our integration is not used to train their public models. Anthropic may retain API traffic for a limited period for safety and abuse monitoring.
We store extraction results you save, related documents in our storage, and technical logs in our AiUsageLog table for operations and billing.
AI output can be wrong. Always review extracted information before relying on it.
5. How we share and monetize your information
We share personal and usage data with third-party partners. This helps fund free and low-cost access. We may receive payment or other compensation when we share data.
Categories we may share include: contact details; horse, barn, and health-related records you enter; usage and behavioral data; information extracted from documents; and aggregated or de-identified statistics that do not identify you.
Recipients may include: analytics and advertising partners; market research firms; technology vendors who help us operate the service; and other commercial partners whose products or services may be relevant to horse owners and barn operators.
We may also share information when required by law or to protect rights and safety.
6. Your U.S. state privacy rights
