This Privacy Policy explains how Accruely (“we,” “us”) collects, uses, and safeguards personal information when you use the Excel Agent Chat Add-in (the “App”). The App is an Excel add-in that provides a chat interface with an agent capable of reading from and performing actions in Excel workbooks with your permission.

Scope

This policy applies to the Excel Agent Chat Add-in service and related components (collectively, the “Service”). It does not cover unrelated products or marketing websites unless explicitly stated here.

Information We Collect

How We Use Information

Agent Actions in Excel

The agent acts only on your explicit requests and within Excel’s permission model. Typical actions include reading ranges, creating or editing tables and charts, inserting formulas, and formatting cells. The App does not access files or data outside the workbook(s) you select.

Processing & Sharing

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Where feasible, we de-identify or aggregate data.

Security

We implement administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate to the risk, including encryption in transit, access controls, and monitoring. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

Your Choices & Rights

International Transfers

We may process information on servers located outside your region. When we transfer personal information internationally, we use appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses as required by law.

Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the age required by local law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the App or by email. The “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent changes.
