Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide our Services, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, and resolve disputes.
Account Information: Retained while your account is active. When you or Slidyo delete your account, your account data is deleted immediately, including your presentations, CVs, uploaded files, and Team Workspaces that you solely own. If you share a Team Workspace with other members, ownership is transferred to another authorized member. We retain only a minimal record of the deletion, including your name, email address, and deletion date, in our security audit logs.
Uploaded Documents: Retained until you delete them or your account is deleted. Temporary files generated during processing are automatically deleted within a few hours, and temporary previews are deleted within 30 minutes.
Team Workspace Data: Retained while the workspace remains active. When the workspace owner deletes it, associated content is deleted immediately, subject to applicable legal obligations.
Engagement Analytics:
- Detailed mouse movements and click interaction data are deleted after 90 days.
- View summaries are retained until the associated shared Link, presentation, CV, or account is deleted. These summaries may include viewing duration, reading progress, approximate location, device type, and any name, email address, or message voluntarily provided by the viewer.
Notification Emails: Records of notification emails sent by Slidyo are deleted after 90 days.
Contact Form Messages: Retained as necessary to respond to inquiries and provide customer support. You may request deletion of your messages at any time, subject to applicable legal obligations.
Payment and Billing Records: Slidyo uses Paddle as its authorized reseller and Merchant of Record for paid subscriptions. Paddle handles payment processing, applicable transaction taxes, invoicing, refunds, and payment-related disputes in accordance with its own terms, Privacy Policy, and legal obligations.
Slidyo does not store complete payment card numbers or card security codes. We may receive and retain limited billing and transaction information from Paddle, including customer identifiers, billing contact details, subscription plans, transaction references, payment status, renewal dates, cancellation status, and refund information.
We retain this information as necessary to activate and manage subscriptions, provide customer support, maintain business records, comply with applicable tax and accounting requirements, and resolve disputes. Paddle independently determines the retention periods for payment information it controls as Merchant of Record.
For further information, please review Paddle's Privacy Policy.
Sign-in Sessions: Session information, including the IP address and browser type used to sign in, is retained with your account and deleted when your account is deleted, except where retention is legally required.
Security and Technical Logs: Security audit logs record administrative actions, associated accounts and IP addresses, and account deletion events. These logs are retained while the service operates where necessary to investigate security incidents and prevent abuse, subject to applicable data protection laws and periodic retention reviews.
AI usage records, including the AI model used, token counts, and associated costs, are retained for usage monitoring and cost accounting. These records do not contain the content of user documents or prompts.
Backups: Slidyo does not maintain separate long-term backup copies of personal data. Deleted information is not retained in a separate long-term backup system.
When retaining personal information is no longer necessary or legally justified, we delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it in accordance with applicable law.
For privacy-related inquiries or data deletion requests, contact support@slidyo.com.
Account and Data Deletion
You may request deletion of your account and eligible personal information through account controls or by contacting us.
Deletion does not automatically remove information we must keep for legal, accounting, fraud-prevention, or dispute-resolution purposes.
If you belong to a Team Workspace, documents controlled by the organization may remain with the workspace.
Information already shared with recipients may remain in copies outside Slidyo’s control. Backup copies may persist until the applicable backup cycle expires.
International Data Transfers
Slidyo operates from Türkiye and may use service providers in other countries. Personal data may therefore be processed outside Türkiye or outside the country where you live.
Where international transfers occur, we use the transfer mechanisms and safeguards required by applicable law. Under GDPR, these may include adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses, or other lawful mechanisms. Under KVKK, transfers follow the applicable requirements of Law No. 6698, including the rules in force at the time of transfer.
You may contact us for more information about transfer arrangements.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to the risks of our Services. These may include:

- Security logging and monitoring.
- Secure infrastructure configuration.
- Backup and recovery procedures.

No online platform can guarantee absolute security.
You are responsible for protecting your credentials, maintaining appropriate workspace permissions, and managing sharing settings.
Where required by law, we will notify affected individuals and relevant authorities of qualifying personal data breaches.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Slidyo uses cookies and similar technologies to support essential website functionality, including authentication, session management, security, and user preferences.
When customers use Paddle's checkout services, Paddle may use cookies and similar technologies for secure payment processing, fraud prevention, and transaction management in accordance with its Privacy Policy.
Slidyo also collects Link engagement information to provide document analytics, including views, viewing duration, and interactions. Some analytics may be collected through server-side technologies without the use of tracking cookies.
Where cookies or similar technologies require consent under applicable data protection laws, Slidyo will request the necessary consent before using them.
Users can manage cookies through their browser settings and any available consent controls. Disabling essential cookies may affect certain platform features.

Children’s Privacy and Minors
Slidyo is intended for professional and business use. Users must meet the minimum age and legal-capacity requirements in our Terms of Use.
Link viewers may include people of any age. Our analytics are not intended to collect information from children. Senders should not share content with children where that would be inappropriate or unlawful.
If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child unlawfully, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
Third-Party Services
Slidyo may integrate with external providers for authentication, payment processing, AI, hosting, and other functions. Those providers may operate under their own terms and privacy policies.
Where a third party independently determines the purposes and means of processing, its own privacy notice governs that processing.
Marketing Communications
We may send service announcements, product notifications, security alerts, and other communications needed to operate your account.
Where legally permitted, we may also send promotional information about Slidyo. You can opt out of marketing using the unsubscribe link or by contacting us. Opting out of marketing does not stop essential service or billing messages.
Changes to This Privacy Policy

The revised policy will be published here with a new effective date. Where changes materially affect how we process personal data, we will give additional notice or request consent where required.
