Data & Privacy
What data AIM collects, how it is used, and how long it is retained — including our NIST-aligned audit log retention schedule.
Guest Mode — Data Handling & Retention
How AIM handles the information you enter in Guest Mode, and what happens to it over time.
What is collected
When you submit a Guest Mode assessment, AIM collects the answers from your intake form (project type, organization type, goals, systems, compliance requirements, etc.) and uses them to generate an AI-produced Executive Summary. To enforce usage limits and prevent abuse, AIM also temporarily records your IP address, a browser fingerprint, and a persistent device token stored in your browser's local storage.
How long it is retained
Rate limit records
24 hours
IP address, browser fingerprint, and device token used only to enforce the 3-per-day usage limit. Deleted on a rolling basis.
Guest session data
30 days
Your form responses and generated report are stored for 30 days so they can be carried over if you sign up within that window. Automatically purged after expiration.
What we do not do with your data
- We do not sell or share your guest session data with any third party.
- We do not use guest data to train AI models.
- We do not contact you based on guest data — no email, no marketing.
- We do not link guest data to any account unless you explicitly sign up and claim the session.
Security
Guest session data is stored in the same encrypted, access-controlled Supabase infrastructure that protects all AIM data. Row-level security policies restrict access to service-role API routes only — no client can query your session directly. Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest.
Carry over your assessment when you sign up
If you create an account within 30 days of running a guest assessment, AIM can automatically link your guest session to your new account — so you don't have to fill out the form again. Your intake data will be available to pre-populate your first full assessment.
Account & Organization Data — Retention Policy
How AIM handles your assessment data, organization records, and billing history when your account is active, canceled, or closed.
While your account is active
All assessment data, architecture recommendations, reports, and organization records are retained for the lifetime of your subscription. Nothing is automatically deleted while your account is in good standing. You control your data — you can archive or remove assessments yourself at any time from within the platform.
Retention periods by data type
Assessments & reports
90 days after cancellation
Your assessment content, architecture outputs, and generated reports are retained for 90 days after your subscription ends. You can resubscribe and pick up exactly where you left off.
Billing & financial records
7 years
Invoice history, payment records, and subscription metadata are retained for 7 years to comply with IRS record-keeping requirements. This data is not linked to your assessment content.
User accounts & profiles
90 days after cancellation
User login credentials and profile data are removed 90 days after the organization's subscription ends, unless you have access to other active organizations.
Audit & activity logs
3 years
Platform audit logs (logins, exports, attestations) are retained for 3 years for security and compliance defensibility.
What happens when you cancel
Access is locked immediately
Your organization is placed in a read-only locked state. No new assessments can be created, but existing data is preserved.
90-day retention window begins
A 90-day clock starts from the cancellation date. You can resubscribe any time during this window and regain full access to all your data.
Permanent purge at day 90
Assessment content and personal information are permanently deleted. The organization record is anonymized and billing metadata is retained per legal requirements.
Requesting early deletion
Organization admins may submit an explicit account deletion request at any time from their account settings. This triggers the same 90-day window and gives you the opportunity to cancel the request before data is permanently removed. Once purge processing begins it cannot be reversed. For immediate deletion requests, contact [email protected].
What we do not do with your data
- We do not sell or share your assessment data or organization records with any third party.
- We do not use your assessment content to train AI models.
- We do not retain personal information beyond the schedules above.
- We do not share billing metadata with any party other than Stripe for payment processing.
Changed your mind? Resubscribe within 90 days.
If you resubscribe before the 90-day window closes, your account is restored to full active status and all your assessments, reports, and organization data are immediately accessible again — no re-entry required.
Plans & Key Concepts
Understand the building blocks of AIM and how each plan scales to match your organization.
Assessments
An assessment is a structured modernization project inside AIM. You describe your current environment, constraints, and goals—then AIM scores technologies, generates architecture diagrams, and produces procurement-ready exports. Each plan includes a set number of assessments your organization can create.
Snapshot Credits
A snapshot credit is consumed when AIM creates a new auditable decision snapshot—a frozen, reproducible record of your inputs, selected technologies, and computed outputs. Regenerating the same outputs without changing inputs costs nothing. Credits reset annually with your subscription.
Project Pulse
Project Pulse tracks the health of your modernization after the assessment is complete. It covers milestones, epics, team capacity, and delivery status—giving leadership a real-time view of whether projects are on track. Available on Organization plans (Small and above).
Marketplace purchasing available upon request — AWS Marketplace, Microsoft Commercial Marketplace, Google Cloud Marketplace, and Oracle Cloud Marketplace. Vendor-neutral by design.
Compare Plans
All paid plans include the full AIM scoring engine, architecture diagrams, and procurement-ready exports.
