Social Media Login Data

We may provide you with the option to register with us using your existing social media account details, like your Facebook, X, or other social media account. If you choose to register in this way, we will collect certain profile information about you from the social media provider, as described in the section called “HOW DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?” below.

All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete, and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information.

Information automatically collected

In Short: Some information — such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address and/or browser and device characteristics — is collected automatically when you visit our Services.

We automatically collect certain information when you visit, use, or navigate the Services.

This information is primarily needed to maintain the security and operation of our Services, and for internal analytics and reporting purposes.

The information we collect includes:

  • Log and Usage Data. Service-related, diagnostic, usage, and performance information our servers automatically collect when you access or use our Services and which we record in log files. This may include IP address, device information, browser type, and settings and information about your activity in the Services (such as date/time stamps, pages viewed, and actions you take such as which features you use), device event information (such as system activity, error reports (“crash dumps”), and hardware settings).

Information processed from your files (Local-First Processing)

In Short: Diem is designed to process your files locally on your device wherever possible. We do not upload your files by default.

Diem is a desktop application designed to help users organize, preview, and search their own files across connected storage devices. The files you connect to Diem (including videos, images, documents, and other media) remain under your control.

Local Processing

  • By default, Diem processes file contents locally on your device.
  • File previews, indexing, and metadata extraction are performed on-device wherever technically possible.
  • We do not automatically upload the full contents of your files to our servers.

Metadata and Derived Data

To provide core functionality, Diem may process limited technical information derived from your files, such as:

  • file names
  • file paths
  • file types
  • timestamps
  • file sizes
  • non-reversible identifiers and/or embeddings used to enable search and organization

This derived data is used solely to provide and improve the Services and does not replace your original files.

User Control

You remain responsible for:

  • which drives or folders you connect
  • which files are indexed
  • whether you enable optional AI-powered features that may require cloud processing (as described below)

2. HOW DO WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION?

In Short: We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our Services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. We may also process your information for other purposes with your consent.

We process your personal information for a variety of reasons, depending on how you interact with our Services, including:

  • To facilitate account creation and authentication and otherwise manage user accounts.
  • To request feedback.
  • To protect our Services (including fraud monitoring and prevention).
  • To identify usage trends and improve the Services.
  • To save or protect an individual’s vital interest (for example, to prevent harm).

3. WHAT LEGAL BASES DO WE RELY ON TO PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

In Short: We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason to do so under applicable law (for example, consent, contract, legal obligations, vital interests, and legitimate interests).

If you are located in the EU or UK.

We may rely on the following legal bases:

  • Consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
  • Legitimate Interests. For example, to analyze and improve the Services, diagnose problems, prevent fraud, and improve user experience.
  • Legal Obligations. To comply with applicable laws and regulations.
  • Vital Interests. To protect safety.

If you are located in Canada.

We may process your information with express or implied consent, and in some cases as permitted by law without consent (for example, for fraud prevention or investigations).

4. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

In Short: We may share information in specific situations described in this section and/or with specific categories of third parties.

Vendors, Consultants, and Other Third-Party Service Providers.

We may share your data with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents (“third parties”) who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. We have contracts in place designed to help safeguard your personal information.

The categories of third parties we may share personal information with are as follows:

  • Data Analytics Services
  • Performance Monitoring Tools
  • User Account Registration & Authentication Services
  • Customer Support Tools
  • Payment Processors

We may also share your personal information in the following situations:

  • Affiliates. With our affiliates, who must honor this Privacy Notice.
  • Business Partners. To offer certain products, services, or promotions (if applicable).

5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

In Short: We use limited cookies and similar technologies primarily for essential website functionality and analytics.

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to gather information when you interact with our website. These technologies help us maintain security, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save preferences, and understand website usage.

We do not use cookies within the desktop application itself.

If we introduce advertising or behavioral tracking in the future, we will update this Privacy Notice and provide any required choices and controls.

Specific information about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies may be provided in a separate Cookie Notice, where applicable.

6. DO WE OFFER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE-BASED PRODUCTS?

In Short: Yes. Diem offers optional AI-powered features. These features are designed with data minimization and user control in mind.

Use of AI Technologies

Diem offers optional features powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies (“AI Products”) to assist with functions such as intelligent search, content analysis, and organization.

We provide these AI Products using carefully selected third-party service providers (“AI Service Providers”), which may include OpenAI.

How AI Processing Works

  • AI features are optional and are only used when enabled by the user.
  • When AI features are used, Diem processes only the minimum data necessary to deliver the requested functionality.
  • Where possible, data is pseudonymized or abstracted (for example, using embeddings rather than raw files).
  • We do not use your data to build user profiles or for advertising purposes.

Data Sharing With AI Providers

When AI processing requires third-party services:

  • Relevant inputs and outputs may be transmitted securely to the AI Service Provider.
  • Such data is processed solely to deliver the requested feature.
  • We do not permit AI Service Providers to use your data to train or improve their models.
  • We require AI Service Providers to process data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and contractual safeguards.

No Model Training on User Data

We do not use your files, file contents, or AI inputs or outputs to train Diem’s own models or any third-party AI models.

International Transfers

Where AI processing involves data transfer outside your country of residence, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent lawful mechanisms.

7. HOW DO WE HANDLE YOUR SOCIAL LOGINS?

In Short: If you choose to register or log in using a social media account, we may have access to certain information about you.

Our Services offer you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or X logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. The profile information may vary but will often include your name, email address, and profile picture, and other information you choose to make public.

We will use the information we receive only for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice or that are otherwise made clear to you. We do not control and are not responsible for other uses of your personal information by your third-party social media provider. We recommend you review their privacy notice.

8. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice unless otherwise required by law.

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the Services and fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Notice.

  • Account information is retained for the duration of your account.
  • Derived technical data used for indexing or AI features is retained only as long as required to provide functionality.
  • Logs and diagnostic data are retained for limited periods to maintain security and system integrity.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will delete or anonymize it, or, if not possible (for example, stored in backups), securely store and isolate it until deletion is possible.

9. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through organizational and technical security measures.

We implement reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of personal information we process. However, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed 100% secure.

10. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.

We do not knowingly collect, solicit data from, or market to children under 18. If we learn that personal information from users under 18 has been collected, we will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to delete such data. Contact us at hello@downloaddiem.com if you believe we may have collected information from a minor.

12. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
