Vvault is built on a simple principle: your data belongs to you. This policy explains exactly what information we collect, what we do not collect, and how your data is handled.
Plain English summary: Vvault software runs entirely on your machine. Your policy documents, questionnaire content, and generated answers never leave your network. We do not see, access, or store any of it. On this website (getvvault.com), we collect only what is necessary to respond to your enquiries and process your purchase.
Vvault is an independent software product built and operated by Girish Bhide, an independent software developer based in India.
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, "we", "us", and "our" refers to Girish Bhide operating as Vvault.
