This Privacy Notice for Armbruster Holdings LLC (doing business as Curateur) ("we," "us," or "our") describes how and why we might access, collect, store, use, and/or share ("process") your personal information when you use our services ("Services"), including when you visit our website, use Curateur, or engage with us in other related ways.
Curateur is a web-based software application that helps families organize and complete the administrative tasks that follow the death of a loved one. It provides personalized task lists, plain-language guidance, drafted correspondence, and optional encrypted storage for estate-related documents. Curateur does not provide legal, tax, or financial advice.
Questions or concerns? If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Services. If you still have any questions or concerns, please contact us at hello@curateur.ai.
Information about a deceased person is not personal information under every privacy law, but estate records can also contain information about living people. Only provide information you are authorized to use.
All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete, and accurate, and you must notify us of changes.
We use vendors and service providers that process information on our behalf for specific business purposes:
| Provider | Purpose and information involved |
|---|---|
| Anthropic | AI processing. Depending on the feature you request, this can include prompts, estate context, chat content, and the contents of a document you choose to analyze. |
| Stripe | Checkout and payment processing. This includes your email address, transaction details, and payment information provided directly to Stripe. |
| Replit | Application hosting, database infrastructure, security, and technical operations. Information stored or transmitted through Curateur is processed on this infrastructure. |
| Resend | Sign-in and transactional email delivery. This includes your email address, message content, provider message identifier, and delivery status. |
These operational disclosures are not sales of personal information. We do not disclose personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising. If those practices change, we will update this notice and provide any legally required choices before beginning them.
Share links. If you deliberately create a task-list share link, anyone with that link can view the shared task information until you disable or replace it. Share links do not expose vault documents.
We may also share information in connection with a merger, sale of company assets, financing, acquisition, or other business transfer, or when necessary to comply with law or protect rights and safety.
Curateur uses a secure session cookie to keep authenticated users signed in. Hosting and security technologies may also process ordinary request information to prevent abuse, diagnose failures, and operate the Services. At this time, we do not use online tracking technologies for advertising or targeted marketing purposes. We do not respond to browser Do-Not-Track signals because no uniform standard has been finalized.
Our AI service provider is Anthropic. Depending on the feature you request, your prompts, estate context, chat content, generated output, and personal information may be transmitted to and processed by Anthropic for text generation or document analysis. Core task guidance, chat, explanations, and letter drafting require AI processing. Document analysis is optional.
We do not use your content to train AI models, sell it, or use it for advertising. Anthropic processes content under the terms and data controls applicable to the API service we use and may retain limited information for security, abuse monitoring, or legal compliance. Review Anthropic's privacy policy for additional information. AI output may be inaccurate; please review our AI disclaimer.
During the 12-month read-only period you can view saved task content, download or delete documents, export your content, and disable share links. We send advance notices before scheduled document deletion. Our automated retention process will not delete vault documents unless the 60-day and 14-day notices were successfully delivered with their full notice periods.
After that period, we delete vault documents and facts extracted from those documents. Task lists, progress, notes, chat content, generated guidance, account records, usage records, document-access logs, lifecycle-email records, and payment records are not part of that automatic document-deletion process.
Other information is retained while your account is open and afterward only as reasonably needed to provide exports or account support, maintain security and audit records, prevent fraud, enforce our agreements, meet tax and accounting duties, resolve disputes, or comply with law. Authentication records and security tokens are also limited by expiration controls, although records may remain as needed for security and troubleshooting. Payment records may be kept for legally required accounting and dispute periods.
You may request account deletion as described below. We will delete or de-identify information covered by a valid request unless retaining it is permitted or required by law. Some deleted information may remain in protected routine backups until those backups are overwritten or deleted, and service providers may retain information under their own legally permitted retention schedules.
Documents uploaded to your Curateur vault are encrypted at rest using industry-standard AES encryption. Decryption occurs only when you access them through your authenticated account or specifically request a feature that requires document processing. No electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Curateur is a convenience tool, not a system of record. Keep your own originals and copies of important documents.
Subject to applicable exceptions, eligible residents may have the right to:
We do not sell personal information, share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, use it for targeted advertising, or use personal information to make decisions based solely on profiling that produce legal or similarly significant effects. Therefore, Curateur does not currently provide a “Do Not Sell or Share” link. We process potentially sensitive estate and document information only to provide features you request, protect the Services, and meet legal obligations; we do not use it to infer characteristics for advertising.
Email hello@curateur.ai with the subject “Privacy Request” and describe the right you want to exercise. We will respond within the period required by applicable law and will notify you if a permitted extension is needed. To protect account and estate information, we may verify control of the account email and request additional information reasonably necessary to confirm identity, residency, or authority. We will use verification information only for the request and related legal records.
An authorized agent may submit a request for you where applicable. We may require proof of signed permission and may ask you to verify your identity directly unless the agent holds legally valid authority to act for you. If we deny a request and applicable law provides an appeal right, reply to our decision or email us with the subject “Privacy Appeal.” We will review and respond within the period required by applicable law and explain any further options required by that law.
We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right. Some information is necessary to provide Curateur; deleting it may require closing your account or make a requested feature unavailable. We may retain information when an exception allows or requires us to do so, and we will explain that decision.
During the preceding 12 months, we may have disclosed the categories described in Section 1 to the service-provider categories described in Section 3 for the stated operational purposes. We have not sold personal information or shared it for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising. We do not have actual knowledge that we have sold or shared for those purposes the personal information of anyone under 16.
The Services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you believe a minor has provided personal information to us, contact us so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.
We may update this notice as our practices or legal obligations change. The “Last updated” date identifies the current version. If a change materially affects how we use personal information, we will provide notice by email or through a prominent notice in the Services when required by law.
If you have questions or comments about this notice, contact us by email or mail:
Email hello@curateur.ai with the subject “Privacy Request” to request access, correction, deletion, or a portable copy, or to exercise another applicable privacy right. Include enough detail for us to understand the request, but do not email passwords, full financial account numbers, government identification numbers, or copies of sensitive vault documents unless we specifically request a secure verification method.
