Patent Data Privacy & Security

We understand that patent prosecution data — including office actions, patent claims, prior art references, and claim amendment strategies — is highly sensitive and often protected by attorney-client privilege. Here's how patentreply.ai protects your confidential patent information.

Patent Data Security

Your patent prosecution data is protected with:

Encryption in transit — All patent documents transmitted between your browser and our servers use TLS encryption
Encryption at rest — Stored patent data is encrypted using industry-standard AES-256 encryption
Access controls — Only you (and anyone you explicitly share with) can access your patent analyses
Regular security audits — Our infrastructure undergoes regular security reviews and penetration testing

Data Retention

Your patent analysis data:

Remains accessible to you indefinitely — patent analyses don't expire
Can be deleted at any time from your dashboard by removing individual analyses
Is automatically backed up to prevent data loss
Is never shared with third parties without your explicit consent

AI Model Usage

When your patent documents are processed by AI models:

Patent document content is sent to AI providers only for the purpose of generating your office action analysis
AI providers do not retain or train on your patent data
Each patent analysis request is processed independently and not linked to other users' data

You have full control over your patent prosecution data:

Delete individual analyses — Click the delete icon on any patent analysis card in your dashboard
Delete chat history — Use the Clear/Clear All buttons in Chat with Documents
Delete your account — Contact support to request complete account deletion, including all patent analyses, chat history, and personal information
