Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 7, 2026
1. What we collect
- Account information: name, email address, and password (stored hashed) when you register.
- Research content: reviews, imported articles/citations, screening decisions, and uploaded PDFs you add to the platform.
- Newsletter signups: the email address you submit through our newsletter form, along with the source and timestamp of signup.
- Complaint/support submissions: the title, description, and optional screenshot you attach when reporting an issue, linked to your account.
- Usage data: basic technical data such as IP address and browser user agent, used for security and abuse prevention.
2. How we use your data
We use the data described above to:
- Provide and operate the systematic-review platform, including team collaboration features.
- Respond to support requests and complaints, including reviewing attached screenshots.
- Send newsletter updates to subscribers who opt in, and let you unsubscribe at any time.
- Maintain the security and integrity of the service.
3. Data sharing
We do not sell your personal data. Research content within a review is only visible to that review's owner and invited team members. We may share data with service providers (such as hosting and email delivery) strictly to operate StataNex, or when required by law.
4. Data retention
Account and research data is retained for as long as your account is active. Newsletter subscriptions are retained until you unsubscribe. Complaint records are retained to maintain a support history and may be anonymized after resolution.
5. Your rights (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction or deletion of your data.
- Withdraw consent for newsletter emails at any time (unsubscribe link or by request).
- Request a copy of your data in a portable format.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@statanex.com.
6. Security
We use industry-standard measures — including encrypted password storage and token-based authentication — to protect your data. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information to the best of our ability.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.
