Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
AGNT ("we," "us," or "our") is operated by ICM Motion GmbH, a company registered in Germany. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the AGNT platform, including our web application, Telegram bot, WhatsApp integration, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By using the Service, you consent to the data practices described in this policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of the Service immediately.
1. What We Collect
We collect the following categories of personal data:
Account Information
Name and email address (encrypted at rest using Fernet symmetric encryption). Phone number (hashed using HMAC-SHA256; we cannot reverse your phone number from the stored hash).
Chat Messages
Messages you send to your AGNT agent via Telegram or WhatsApp are stored in encrypted Redis sessions to maintain conversation context. Sessions are ephemeral and expire automatically. We do not retain chat transcripts indefinitely.
Photos You Submit
Food photos submitted for calorie scanning are processed in real time to extract nutritional information. Images are not stored long-term; they are deleted after processing. Product photos submitted for dupe search (price comparison) are processed for identification and similarly deleted after processing.
Location Data
Location is collected only when you explicitly share it for venue recommendations or transport booking. We do not track your location in the background.
Booking & Transaction History
We store records of venue bookings you make through the Service, including venue name, date, party size, and booking status. This enables reminders, history, and ratings.
Payment Information
Payments are processed entirely by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number, CVC, or full payment details on our servers. We retain only a Stripe customer ID and transaction references for billing purposes.
Usage & Device Data
We collect standard technical data such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, and pages visited. This data is used for security, analytics, and service improvement.
2. How We Use Your Data
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide and operate the Service, including AI-powered venue discovery, booking management, calorie scanning, product comparison, transport booking, and social features.
- Process your requests and deliver responses through your chosen messaging channel (Telegram or WhatsApp).
- Process payments and manage subscriptions via Stripe.
- Send transactional communications such as booking confirmations, reminders, and account notifications.
- Generate nutritional breakdowns from food photos and maintain your food diary with daily summaries.
- Identify products from photos and find price alternatives across e-commerce platforms.
- Improve and personalize the Service, including training and refining recommendation quality (using aggregated, de-identified data only).
- Monitor for abuse, fraud, and technical issues using error tracking and logging.
- Comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests from authorities.
3. Third-Party Services & Data Sharing
We share data with the following third-party service providers strictly to operate the Service. We do not sell your personal data.

Each third-party provider processes data under their own privacy policy. We encourage you to review their respective policies.
4. Data Storage & Security
We take the security of your data seriously and employ industry-standard technical and organizational measures:
- Encryption at rest: Personal identifiers (name, email) are encrypted using Fernet symmetric encryption before storage.
- Phone number hashing: Phone numbers are stored as HMAC-SHA256 hashes. We cannot recover your phone number from the stored value.
- Chat encryption: Chat sessions are stored in encrypted Redis instances with automatic expiration.
- Photo processing: Food and product photos are processed in memory and not retained after analysis is complete.
- Payment isolation: All payment data is handled by Stripe in PCI-DSS compliant infrastructure. Card details never touch our servers.
- Access controls: Internal access to personal data is restricted to authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis.
- Infrastructure: Our backend services run on encrypted cloud infrastructure with TLS 1.2+ for all data in transit.
While we implement robust safeguards, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security but commit to promptly notifying affected users and relevant authorities in the event of a data breach, in accordance with applicable law.
5. Data Retention
- Account data: Retained for as long as your account is active. Upon account deletion, personal data is purged within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
- Chat sessions: Automatically expire from Redis. Typical session lifetime is 24 hours of inactivity.
- Photos: Deleted immediately after processing. Not stored in any database or file system.
- Booking history: Retained for the lifetime of your account to provide history, ratings, and recommendations.
- Transaction records: Retained for a minimum of 7 years as required by German tax and commercial law.
