DOCUMENT 01 / PRIVACY
Privacy Policy — Andrea Linehan's AI Tools
Effective date: 13 November 2026
Who this policy covers
This policy applies to the AI tools published by Andrea Linehan that link to this page and run within ChatGPT ("the tools"). Andrea Linehan is based in Ireland. Contact: Andrea's contact form .
This policy describes Andrea's role as the tools' publisher. OpenAI provides ChatGPT and handles information processed through its platform under its applicable policies and agreements.
Your conversations and uploads
The tools use instructions within ChatGPT. They have no publisher-configured external integrations, actions or separate servers that receive your prompts or files.
Andrea does not separately receive or store your private conversations or uploads merely because you use these tools. If you choose to send Andrea a transcript, screenshot, file or feedback directly, she will receive what you share.
This does not mean that information submitted to ChatGPT is never stored or used to improve models. OpenAI's handling of prompts, uploads, outputs and account information depends on its applicable policies, your account type, settings and any organisational agreement. See OpenAI's privacy policy and your ChatGPT data controls. Organisational accounts may also be subject to administrator controls.
External services and website visits
The tools do not independently send your content to external services. This statement concerns the tools' own configuration; features you separately enable or use within ChatGPT are subject to their own disclosures.
Visiting andrealinehan.com or submitting its contact form is separate from using a tool in ChatGPT. Website cookies, analytics and contact-form processing require their own applicable disclosures; this page is not a complete website cookie notice.
If you contact Andrea
Andrea is responsible for personal information she receives directly in support or privacy enquiries, such as your name, contact details, message and any material you voluntarily provide.
Andrea uses the information you provide to respond to your enquiry, provide support and resolve issues you raise. For routine support correspondence, the lawful basis is her legitimate interest in supporting users and managing enquiries. Where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, such as responding to an applicable data-protection rights request, the lawful basis is that legal obligation.
Enquiries submitted through the website are stored in Squarespace and delivered to Andrea's Gmail inbox, provided by Google. These providers may process personal information outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Their published transfer arrangements include the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and, where applicable, Standard Contractual Clauses. Details of these safeguards and how to obtain further information are available in Squarespace's privacy policy and Google's data transfer information .
Routine support enquiries are deleted from both Squarespace and Gmail within 12 months after they are resolved. Where information is needed to meet a legal obligation or address an ongoing dispute, only the information necessary for that purpose is retained for as long as required.
Providing contact information is voluntary, but sufficient information may be needed to answer your enquiry. Please avoid including unnecessary sensitive information or confidential third-party material.
Your choices and rights
Use ChatGPT's settings and OpenAI's privacy request channels for information held within ChatGPT. Andrea cannot delete or manage information in your OpenAI account.
For personal information Andrea holds directly, contact Andrea's contact form . Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to processing, and to data portability. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw that consent. Rights are subject to applicable conditions and exceptions.
You may also complain to the Irish Data Protection Commission or your relevant supervisory authority.
Sharing information carefully
Only submit information you are authorised to use. Avoid passwords, payment details and unnecessary personal, sensitive or confidential data. Redact or anonymise material where appropriate.
Changes
This policy will be updated if the tools' data practices change, including before introducing external integrations. The effective date identifies the current version.
