Privacy Policy
Effective Date: May 1, 2026
Last Updated: May 14, 2026
BizFlowa ("we," "our," or "us") is a product of Bizflowa Private Limited. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal and business data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the BizFlowa platform.
1. Data Architecture & Separation Principle
BizFlowa operates on a strict data-minimization model that splits data processing into two distinct technical pathways:
1.1 Centralized Transactional Metadata (Stored on Our Databases)
To populate your real-time web dashboards, compute financial reports (P&L, GSTR-1 summaries), and process AI queries, we collect and retain structured numerical data, line-item values, tax percentages, HSN/SAC codes, and business registration details (GSTIN, company names) inside our secure, encrypted MongoDB databases.
1.2 Decentralized Document Storage (Stored on Your Google Drive)
All raw binary file artifacts, including uploaded receipt images, supplier PDF invoices, and purchase vouchers, are processed transiently to extract data values. Once successfully parsed, these files are routed directly to your connected private Google Drive vault. The Company does not permanently store, mirror, or back up your physical document files on its core servers.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your data exclusively to:
- Provide GST-compliant invoicing and accounting services
- Generate tax reports (GSTR-1, HSN Summary, P&L, etc.)
- Power the AI Command Center for natural-language queries
- Scan and extract data from uploaded receipts
- Sync documents to your Google Drive vault
- Improve platform performance and user experience
We never sell, rent, or trade your personal or business data to third parties.
3. Data Storage & Security
3.1 Infrastructure
- All data is stored in encrypted MongoDB databases

3.3 AI Processing

4. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We share data only with:
- Google APIs: For authentication (OAuth) and Drive file storage
