Privacy Policy.
How we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use ClaimFlow.
ClaimFlow ("we," "us," or "our") operates the ClaimFlow web application and related services (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you use our Service. By using ClaimFlow, you consent to the practices described in this policy.
We are committed to protecting the privacy of insurance professionals, roofing contractors, restoration companies, and public adjusters who use our platform. This policy is designed to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and other applicable privacy laws.
1. Information We Collect

When you create a ClaimFlow account, we collect:
- Name and email address
- Company or organization name
- Professional role (e.g., insurance adjuster, roofing contractor)
- Organization membership information (if joining a team workspace)
1.2 Claim Documents and Uploaded Content
When you use our Service, you upload insurance claim documents (typically Xactimate PDF estimates). These documents may contain:

You are responsible for ensuring you have the legal right to upload and process any documents submitted to ClaimFlow. Do not upload documents containing Protected Health Information (PHI) unless you have a lawful basis and appropriate safeguards in place.
1.3 Payment Information
All payment processing is handled by Stripe, a PCI DSS Level 1 certified payment processor. We do not store, process, or have access to your credit card numbers. Stripe collects billing name, email, payment method details, and billing address on our behalf. See Stripe's Privacy Policy for details.

2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- Service Delivery: Processing your uploaded documents, extracting claim data, generating reports, and providing the core ClaimFlow functionality
- Account Management: Managing your account, subscription, team workspace, and user preferences
- Billing: Processing subscription payments, tracking usage against plan limits, and managing billing communications
- Security: Detecting and preventing unauthorized access, fraud, and abuse of our platform

- Communications: Sending you service-related notifications, billing receipts, and important updates about your account or the Service
We do not use your personal information or uploaded documents for marketing purposes, advertising targeting, or profiling.
3. SMS and Text Messaging
3.1 Consent to Receive Messages
By submitting our demo request form and checking the SMS consent box, you provide your express written consent to receive SMS text messages and phone calls from ClaimFlow at the phone number you provided. This consent covers messages sent using an automatic telephone dialing system or prerecorded voice technology.
Consent is not a condition of purchase. You are not required to consent to receive text messages in order to use or purchase any ClaimFlow product or service.
3.2 Types of Messages
If you consent, you may receive the following types of messages:
- Responses to your demo or information request
- Appointment confirmations and reminders for scheduled calls or demos
- Follow-up communications related to your inquiry
- Account setup and onboarding information
- Service-related notifications
3.3 Message Frequency and Rates
Message frequency varies based on your interactions with us. You may receive up to 10 messages per month. Message and data rates may apply depending on your wireless carrier and plan. ClaimFlow is not responsible for any charges from your carrier.
3.4 Opting Out
You may opt out of receiving text messages at any time by:
- Replying STOP to any text message you receive from us
- Emailing [email protected] with your phone number and a request to opt out
After opting out, you will receive a single confirmation message. You will not receive any further text messages from us unless you re-consent. Opting out of text messages does not affect your ability to use ClaimFlow or any other service.
3.5 Help
For help with text messaging, reply HELP to any message or contact us at [email protected].
3.6 Carrier Disclaimer
Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. ClaimFlow does not guarantee SMS delivery and is not responsible for messages that are delayed, lost, or undelivered due to carrier network issues or other factors outside our control.
3.7 Phone Number Privacy
We will not sell, rent, or share your phone number or SMS consent information with third parties for their marketing purposes. Your phone number is used solely for the purposes described in this section and to contact you regarding your ClaimFlow inquiry.
4. Automated Document Processing
ClaimFlow uses automated technology to extract and analyze data from your uploaded insurance claim documents. We want to be fully transparent about how this works.
4.1 How Automated Processing Works
When you upload a document, it is sent to our processing provider's API for analysis. The software analyzes document text, identifies key fields (policy numbers, dates, amounts, descriptions), extracts line items, and generates structured data. This processing is automated and includes optical character recognition, data extraction, categorization, and summarization.
4.2 Third-Party Processing Providers
ClaimFlow may use one or more third-party processing providers (currently Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT, and Google Gemini) to process uploaded documents. All providers are used under API terms that confirm customer data is not used for their model training. ClaimFlow has not opted in to any provider's training programs. Documents are processed in real-time and providers retain API logs only for short-term safety and abuse monitoring purposes (typically 30 days or less), after which they are automatically deleted.
4.3 ClaimFlow Model Improvement
ClaimFlow may use de-identified data derived from uploaded claim documents to train, validate, and improve our own extraction models ("Model Training"). This is done to improve extraction accuracy, reduce errors, and enhance the Service for all users. Model Training is subject to the following safeguards:
- De-identification required: Before any data is used for Model Training, all direct identifiers are permanently removed, including names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, policy numbers, and claim numbers
- Financial generalization: Exact financial amounts may be aggregated or generalized to prevent individual re-identification
- No personal information retained: De-identified training data cannot reasonably be used to identify any individual, including any homeowner or policyholder whose information may appear in uploaded documents
- No re-identification: ClaimFlow maintains documented technical and organizational safeguards to prevent re-identification and prohibits any attempt to re-identify de-identified data
- No third-party sharing: De-identified training data is used solely by ClaimFlow to improve the Service. It is not sold, licensed, or shared with any third party
4.4 Your Control Over Model Training
You can control whether your account's data contributes to Model Training through the "Help improve ClaimFlow" toggle in your Account Settings.
- Opt out at any time: You may disable Model Training at any time. No reason is required.
- Forward-looking effect: When you opt out, ClaimFlow will stop processing new data from your account for Model Training. De-identified data that was already processed into training datasets prior to your opt-out is not retroactively removed, as it is no longer personal information.
- No service impact: Opting out of Model Training does not affect your access to any ClaimFlow features, your subscription, or the quality of your service.
- Confirmation: When you change your Model Training preference, the change is reflected immediately in your Account Settings.
4.5 Third-Party Data in Uploaded Documents
Uploaded claim documents may contain personal information belonging to third parties (homeowners, policyholders, adjusters). ClaimFlow does not use any personally identifiable information of these third parties for Model Training purposes. All direct identifiers and reasonably re-identifiable information are removed through our de-identification process before any Model Training use. Only structural and financial patterns (line item categories, calculation formats, document layouts) are retained in de-identified form.
4.6 Accuracy Disclaimer
Automatically generated outputs may contain errors and should be reviewed by qualified personnel before being relied upon for any claim decisions. ClaimFlow does not guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of system-generated outputs. For more details, see our Terms of Service.
5. Data Retention
