This privacy policy explains how personal data is processed in the Question-Intelligence-Workbench (QIW) at entreater.com.
Data controller
Torsten Schindler (sole proprietorship)
Voltastrasse 102, 4056 Basel, Switzerland

Scope and legal bases
The Swiss Data Protection Act (revDSG) applies. For users in the EU/EEA, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies in addition. The legal bases are performance of the contract (providing the service), your consent, and our legitimate interest in a secure, functioning service (Art. 6(1)(a), (b), (f) GDPR).
What data we process
- Account data: email address, display name and role; when signing in via Google, Microsoft or GitHub, the profile details they provide.
- Content you enter: questions, placeholder values, selected sources, and the answers, evidence and rankings generated from them.
- Usage and log data: technical logs (e.g. timestamps, errors) produced during operation.
- Local settings: interface preferences stored in your browser (e.g. collapsed/expanded sidebar, language choice).
Purposes of processing
We process this data to manage your account, run your batch jobs, generate and display source-bound results, operate the service securely, and meet legal obligations.
Processors and disclosure
We use carefully selected providers that process data on our behalf:
- Supabase – authentication, database and storage of your content.
- Hostinger – hosting of the application.
- LLM providers OpenAI, Anthropic and Google (Gemini) – the questions and content you enter are sent to the selected model to generate answers. When web grounding is enabled, search queries are sent to the respective provider.
- Google – only when signing in "with Google", for authentication.
Transfers abroad
Some providers (including the LLM providers, Supabase, Hostinger and Google) may transfer data to countries outside Switzerland/the EU — in particular the USA. Such transfers are safeguarded by appropriate measures (e.g. standard contractual clauses).
Retention
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the stated purposes or to meet legal retention obligations. Account and content data are removed on request or when the account is deleted.
Cookies and local storage
We use only strictly necessary cookies for sign-in (session) and local browser storage for interface settings. No cookies are used for advertising or tracking.
Data security
Access to user data is isolated via row-level security. API keys are stored encrypted server-side only. Data is transmitted over an encrypted connection (TLS).
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. To exercise them, email help@entreater.com. You may also lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority (in Switzerland: the FDPIC; in the EU: your local data protection authority).
Note on AI results
QIW generates answers and rankings using language models. Results may contain errors and do not replace professional, legal or medical advice. Do not enter special categories of personal data into questions or values unless necessary.
Changes
We update this privacy policy as needed. The version published on this page applies.
