Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

Patly.ai ("Patly", "we", "us") provides software that helps universities identify and protect patentable research. This policy describes what we collect on this website and how we use it.

Information you send us

When you email us or request a shortlist report, we receive what you choose to share, typically your name, email address, institution, and the contents of your message. We use it to respond, to prepare the report you asked for, and to follow up about our services.

Information collected automatically

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this site. It collects standard usage data such as pages viewed, browser type, device, approximate location, and referring pages, using cookies. You can limit or block cookies in your browser settings, and Google offers an opt‑out browser add‑on for Analytics.

Shortlist reports and public data

The reports we prepare are built from publicly available sources: published papers, preprints, journals, and grant records. We share a university's report with the institution that requested it, not with anyone else.

How we use information

We use the information above to respond to inquiries, prepare requested reports, operate and improve the site, and understand interest in our services. We do not sell personal information.

Sharing

We share information with service providers that help us run this site, such as hosting and analytics providers, and only for that purpose. We may also disclose information where the law requires it.

Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described here, then delete it.

Your choices

You can ask us to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you by writing to info@patly.ai.

Changes

If this policy changes, we will post the updated version here with a new date.
