This Privacy Policy describes how Amiko ("Amiko", "we", "us") collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use our website located at heyamiko.com and related services, including the waitlist and communications (collectively, the "Services").

Who We Are

Amiko is a trading name of HCF STUDIOS PTE. LTD., a company incorporated in Singapore, having its registered address at 20A TANJONG PAGAR ROAD SINGAPORE 088443.
Contact: contact@heyamiko.com

Information We Collect

We collect the following categories of information that you provide directly to us:

  • Contact details: name and email address (required for the waitlist), and optional social handles (e.g., X/Twitter, Telegram).
  • Product interest and feedback: responses about usage frequency, preferences, ideal features, participation interests, and other free-text answers you submit.
  • Consent and attribution: your explicit consent checkbox and optional "how did you hear about us" information.

Automatically collected information: we may receive basic technical details such as IP address for lightweight rate-limiting and security. We do not persist IP addresses in the database. We do not use third-party ad trackers.

Optional Data Uploads

Important notice: Our current waitlist form asks whether you would consider uploading conversation history or related data to speed up twin creation. At this time, the public waitlist does not accept files. If we later invite you to provide optional data, we will present a dedicated notice describing the purpose, scope, retention, access controls, and your choices at that time.

How We Use Your Information

  • To process your waitlist request and communicate about access or product updates.
  • To improve the Services, including analyzing aggregate responses and feedback.
  • To protect the Services, prevent abuse, and enforce our Terms.
  • To comply with legal obligations.

Sharing and Transfers

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with service providers who help us operate the Services, subject to appropriate contractual safeguards. These include:

  • Email delivery provider (currently Resend) to send transactional emails (e.g., waitlist confirmations) to your email address.
  • Cloud/database hosting providers to store and secure your submissions.

If we transfer data outside your jurisdiction, we rely on appropriate transfer mechanisms where required by law. We will update this policy with specific details as our vendor list evolves.

Retention

We retain your waitlist information for as long as necessary to manage invitations, maintain your account eligibility, and operate the Services. If you request deletion or we no longer need the data, we will delete or de-identify it unless retention is required by law.

Your Choices and Rights

  • Communications: you can opt out of non-essential communications by following email instructions or by contacting us.
  • Access, correction, deletion: you can request a copy of your data, ask us to correct it, or delete it, subject to applicable law.
  • Objection and restriction: you may object to or request restriction of certain processing.

To exercise rights, contact us at contact@heyamiko.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.

Regional Disclosures

EEA/UK: The legal bases for processing typically include consent (e.g., joining the waitlist), legitimate interests (e.g., product improvement and security), and compliance with legal obligations. You may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

California: You may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including to know, access, delete, and correct personal information, and opt out of certain sharing. We do not sell personal information as defined by CCPA. You may designate an authorized agent to submit requests on your behalf.

Children

Children's privacy protection: The Services are not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required by your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us to request deletion.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted or stored with us.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated date at the top of this page. If changes are material, we will provide additional notice as appropriate.
