1. Who We Are

Docscope AI Inc. ("Docscope AI", "we", "us", or "our") operates Little Ratel ("Little Ratel" or the "Platform"), a brand and service of Docscope AI Inc. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, store, and protect personal information when you visit our website, create an account, place an order, upload content, or otherwise use Little Ratel.

We are committed to handling personal information in accordance with applicable privacy laws, including Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, where applicable, British Columbia's Personal Information Protection Act (BC PIPA).

  • Legal entity: Docscope AI Inc.
  • Brand: Little Ratel
  • Privacy contact: info@littleratel.com

2. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information we collect through the Little Ratel website, user accounts, checkout and order processing, uploaded materials used to create personalized books, customer support communications, and related operational, security, and administrative processes.

This Policy does not apply to third-party websites, payment providers, social platforms, or other external services that may have their own privacy policies.

3. The Information We Collect

The personal information we collect depends on how you use Little Ratel.

A. Information you provide directly

We may collect information such as your name, email address, phone number, billing and shipping address, account login details, order details, customer service messages, and any information you enter into forms, surveys, or support requests.

If you use Little Ratel to create a personalized children's book, we may also collect content you submit for that purpose.

Because personalized book content may involve children, family members, photos, and other sensitive context, we treat that content with heightened care.

  • Child's name, nickname, age range, or relationship terms
  • Story preferences or custom text
  • Dedications or messages
  • Uploaded photos or images
  • Other content you choose to include in a book

B. Payment and transaction information

When you make a purchase, payment information may be processed by a third-party payment processor. We may receive limited transaction details such as payment status, card type, last four digits, billing name, and fraud or risk signals, but we do not store full payment card numbers on our own servers unless explicitly stated at checkout.

C. Technical and usage information

When you visit or use the Platform, we may automatically collect certain technical information.

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type
  • Operating system
  • Referring pages
  • Pages viewed
  • Time spent on pages
  • Approximate geolocation based on IP
  • Log, diagnostic, and performance data
  • Cookie and similar technology data

D. Information from service providers or integrations

We may receive information from vendors that support hosting, payments, analytics, communications, fraud prevention, customer support, file storage, content generation, or other business operations.

4. Why We Collect and Use Personal Information

We collect, use, and disclose personal information only for purposes that are reasonable and appropriate in the circumstances.

We do not require you to consent to collection, use, or disclosure beyond what is necessary to provide the product or service, except where you separately choose optional features or communications.

  • Provide the Little Ratel website and services
  • Create, edit, preview, print, fulfill, and deliver personalized books
  • Process payments and orders
  • Authenticate users and manage accounts
  • Communicate about orders, shipping, support, or account issues

5. Consent

By providing personal information to us, using Little Ratel, creating an account, placing an order, uploading content, or otherwise interacting with the Platform, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy, subject to applicable law.

Where appropriate, we may use express consent, implied consent, or just-in-time notices, depending on the sensitivity of the information and the context.

You may withdraw your consent, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. If you withdraw consent, some services or features may no longer be available to you.

6. Children's Information and User-Submitted Content

Little Ratel is a product intended to be purchased and used by parents, guardians, family members, or other adults creating personalized materials for children. We do not expect children to independently create accounts or place orders.

If you submit a child's name, photo, story details, or other personal content, you represent that you are authorized to provide that information and to instruct us to use it to create the requested product.

Because children's information can be especially sensitive, we ask users to upload only the personal information reasonably necessary for the intended book and to avoid including unnecessary sensitive details.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate authorization, contact us and we will review and, where appropriate, delete the information.

7. How We Share Personal Information

We do not sell personal information.

A. Service providers

We may share information with trusted vendors and processors that help us operate the Platform and business.

Where a third party processes personal information on our behalf, we require appropriate contractual or other safeguards.

When we transfer personal information to a third party for processing, we remain responsible for that information and use contractual and organizational measures designed to provide a level of protection appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.

9. Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy.

When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we will delete, anonymize, or securely destroy it, subject to legal retention requirements and technically necessary backups.

For personalized book files and uploads, we may retain project data for a limited period to support customer access, reorders, issue resolution, or account functionality, unless you request deletion and we are not legally required to retain the information.

10. Security Safeguards

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information under our control.

These safeguards may include access controls, authentication measures, encrypted transmission, role-based permissions, vendor controls, logging, and secure storage practices.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Breach Notification

If we experience a breach of security safeguards involving personal information under our control, we will assess the incident and take steps required by applicable law.

Where required, we will notify affected individuals and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
