Privacy Policy

Yodon ("Yodon", "we", "us") operates the website yodon.com and the Yodon service, which researches, writes, illustrates and publishes AI-generated articles to WordPress websites. Yodon is the data controller for personal data described in this policy.

Where you use Yodon to process content or data about other people on your own website, you remain the controller of that data and Yodon acts as your processor.

• Account data: name, email address, password (stored only as a secure hash) or sign-in identifiers from Google or Apple.
• Website connection data: WordPress site addresses, usernames, Application Passwords or Yodon Connector plugin tokens, and lists of your existing posts, products and categories used for internal linking.
• Content data: themes, topics, ideas, editorial rules, presets, promoted URLs, and the articles, images and sources Yodon produces for you.
• Billing data: plan, credit balance and payment history. Card details are handled directly by Stripe; we never see or store full card numbers.
• Integration data: if you connect Google Search Console, encrypted access credentials and indexing status for your published articles.
• Monetizing Program data: per-website enrollment choices and the date of consent.
• Technical data: IP address, browser type, device information, log and error data, and cookies necessary to keep you signed in.

• To provide the service: create accounts, generate articles and images, run automations, and publish to your connected websites.
• To process payments, grant credits and send billing notices.
• To send the email notifications you choose in Settings, plus essential service and security messages.
• To keep Yodon secure, prevent abuse, troubleshoot and improve the product.
• To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

We do not sell your personal data and do not use your private content to train our own AI models.

We process personal data on the basis of performance of a contract (providing the service you signed up for), legitimate interests (security, fraud prevention, product improvement), consent (optional notifications and Monetizing Program enrollment, which you can withdraw at any time) and legal obligation (tax, accounting and lawful requests).

To write articles, Yodon sends your topics, preferences and relevant context to third-party AI model and web research providers. These providers process the data only to return results to us. Do not include sensitive personal data in prompts, ideas or editorial rules.

• Infrastructure and hosting providers that store our database and files.
• AI and research providers that generate text, images and research results.
• Stripe for payments and subscription management.
• Email delivery providers for notifications.
• Google, only if you connect Search Console.
• Your WordPress website, to which we deliver the content you request.
• Authorities, where required by law, or a successor in a merger or acquisition subject to this policy.

Our providers may process data outside your country, including in the United States. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.

We keep account and content data while your account is active. When you delete your account we delete or anonymize personal data within 30 days, except records we must retain for legal, tax or accounting purposes (typically up to 7 years for billing records). Content already published to your WordPress site remains under your control.

We use encryption in transit, access controls and row-level database security. WordPress Application Passwords and integration credentials are stored server-side and never returned to the browser. No system is perfectly secure; please use a strong password and revoke credentials you no longer use.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, export or restrict processing of your personal data, to object to processing, and to withdraw consent. California residents have the right to know, delete and correct personal information and to non-discrimination; we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

You can update most data in Settings. For other requests, contact us at the address below. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

We use strictly necessary cookies and local storage to keep you signed in and remember preferences. We do not use advertising cookies on yodon.com.

Yodon is not intended for anyone under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

We may update this policy. Material changes will be announced by email or in the dashboard before they take effect.
