Trust and deployment
Privacy, security, and self-hosting.
ReasonTrail documents implemented privacy boundaries without claiming certifications or guarantees that have not been independently documented.
Legal notice
ReasonTrail provides hosted and self-hosted project-memory workflows. Legal operator and customer-contract details remain the source of truth for formal notices; this page does not invent a contact address that is not monitored.
For account and access questions, use the signed-in application support path or the onboarding contact flow.
Controller and scope
For a self-hosted installation, the person or organization running the deployment controls the project data stored in that deployment.
For a public onboarding or contact form on this site, the operator of this website controls the contact details submitted through that form.
Data collected
The early-access form may collect name, email, role, active project count, current AI tools, hosting preference, and optional message content.
A self-hosted ReasonTrail deployment may store projects, conversations, tasks, decisions, resources, review items, usage records, local account details, and configuration settings.
Private sources and shared knowledge
A contributor's raw conversation remains private to that contributor. Project or organization membership does not grant access to its transcript, detail, search, review payload, or private graph edges.
Authorized project members can share approved project knowledge separately. Source references preserve provenance without widening access to the private transcript.
AI provider boundary
AI features are optional. If enabled, selected project context may be sent to the configured AI provider or local model runtime to answer a request.
The self-hosted database remains local to the deployment, but provider requests are governed by the provider configured by the operator.
EU data rights
EU users may have rights to access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, objection, and complaint to a supervisory authority, depending on the final operator and processing context.
Formal data-rights requests should use the contact point in the applicable customer or legal notice; retention depends on the deployment and record type.
Deployment model
Self-hosting keeps the operating boundary close.
