This Privacy Policy explains how ArtsEnvoy.ai, a project of Lisa Russell Films, LLC, collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal data when you access our platform, participate in programs such as the Africa AI Creator’s Academy, or interact with our services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum information necessary for educational engagement, platform functionality, and ethical research. This may include:

• Full name, email address, and location (for cohort and progress tracking)

• Voluntary demographic info (e.g. age, language, region)

• User-submitted content such as prompts, AI-generated outputs, or assignments

• Feedback, survey responses, and communications

• Technical data such as IP address, device type, and usage logs (for security and platform optimization)

We do not collect biometric data, financial data, or any sensitive personal identifiers without explicit consent.

2. How We Use Your Data

Your data is used to:

• Facilitate personalized learning and mentorship experiences

• Improve AI tool performance and curriculum development

• Evaluate impact and report anonymized trends to program partners

• Conduct ethical, non-commercial research (with prior notice)

• Maintain platform security and compliance

We do not use your data to train commercial AI models unless you give explicit consent through a separate opt-in agreement.

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with advertisers, commercial brokers, or unauthorized third parties.

We may share limited, relevant data under the following conditions:

• With local educational and implementation partners in countries where our programs operate (e.g., Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Bangladesh), for the purposes of curriculum delivery, mentorship, program evaluation, or ethical research. This sharing is governed by prior consent, and all local partners are contractually bound to uphold our standards of data protection, sovereignty, and student privacy.

• With hosting, analytics, or cloud service providers, who process data strictly on our behalf under confidentiality and data processing agreements.

• With research institutions or policy organizations, only when data is anonymized, aggregated, and used in a manner that cannot identify individual users or communities.

ArtsEnvoy.ai is committed to data sovereignty, meaning that data collected in a particular country is co-managed with relevant local institutions, and where possible, stored regionally to reduce cross-border data risk.

4. Data Storage and Security

All data is securely stored on encrypted servers. Where feasible, regional hosting options are considered to minimize cross-border data transfers. We implement industry-standard measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete your data at any time

• Withdraw consent for data collection or research participation

• Request full transparency on how your data is used
