Niraiya's Privacy Policy: Your Data, Protected

Q: Can other password recovery services see my Excel file data?

Yes, most traditional services require you to upload your complete Excel file to their servers. This means your sensitive data—financial records, client information, personal data—is stored on their systems, potentially accessible to employees or vulnerable to breaches. Our browser-first approach ensures your actual file content never leaves your device.

Q: What happens if I cancel the recovery process midway?

If you stop the process before the hash is sent to our servers, nothing has been transmitted. If the hash has already been sent for AI processing, it will be automatically discarded from our systems. You maintain full control throughout.

Q: How do you ensure the AI doesn't learn from my specific data?

Our AI systems work exclusively with password hashes and pattern recognition algorithms. The machine learning models improve by analyzing successful password recovery patterns, not by memorizing specific file contents or user data. Each recovery session is isolated and doesn't influence future processing of other files.

Q: What if I'm dealing with highly sensitive Excel files (medical, legal, financial)?

Our privacy-first architecture was specifically designed for these scenarios. Since processing happens locally in your browser first, you can verify that only the password hash (not your sensitive content) is being transmitted. This approach is compliant with HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulations requiring data minimization. Many law firms and healthcare organizations use Niraiya for this reason.

Your privacy is our foundation. We believe in keeping your data safe while we help you recover passwords securely.

Privacy First, Always

At Niraiya, we built our service on a simple promise: your files stay yours. We know that uploading a locked spreadsheet requires trust, which is why we designed a system where your actual file never leaves your computer.

We don't just talk about privacy; we engineered it into our core. This policy explains exactly how we protect your information, in plain English, so you can feel safe using our tools.

What We Collect (And What We Don't)

We keep it minimal. To unlock your file, we only need a few technical details:

The "Hash": This is a scrambled code that represents your password. It tells us nothing about your rows, columns, or charts.
File Info: Basic stuff like "Excel 2019" or file size.
Performance Stats: Anonymous data on how fast our AI is working, so we can make it faster.

The Bottom Line: We never see your financial records, client lists, or personal secrets. We only see the lock, not what's inside the room.

How We Handle Your File

We use a "browser-first" approach. Here is the step-by-step journey of how your data is protected:

1. It Starts Locally

Your browser does the heavy lifting first. It extracts the "hash" (the digital fingerprint) right on your device.

2. Secure Travel

We send that hash—and only the hash—to our servers using bank-grade encryption (SSL).

3. AI Gets to Work

Our AI analyzes the pattern to find the key. It happens in a secure, isolated environment.

4. Gone in 24 Hours

Once we are done, we wipe the slate clean. No backups, no logs, no trace of your file.

Bank-Level Security

We take security seriously. We use the same encryption standards as major banks to keep your data safe:

End-to-End Encryption: Your data is locked tight from your browser to our server.
Zero-Knowledge: We can't see your file content, even if we wanted to.
Auto-Wipe: We delete everything automatically. We don't hoard data.

Peace of Mind: Even if someone hacked our servers, they would find nothing but scrambled math—useless without your original file.

Your Rights and Controls

You maintain complete control over your data throughout the process. Since processing happens locally first, you can stop at any time without any data being transmitted.

What You Control:

File access and processing initiation

Your Rights:

Right to know what data we process
Right to stop processing at any time
Right to data deletion confirmation
Right to contact us about privacy concerns

International Data Transfers

Our servers are located in secure data centers within the USA and European Union, compliant with GDPR requirements. For users outside the EU, we ensure all data transfers meet local privacy regulations through standard contractual clauses and adequate protection measures.

Since most processing happens in your browser, international transfers are minimal and only involve the password hash data necessary for AI analysis.

Cookies and Tracking

We use minimal cookies for essential functionality:

Session Cookies: Temporary cookies to maintain your browser session during file processing.
Analytics: Anonymous usage statistics to improve our service (no personal data).
Security: Cookies to prevent abuse and ensure secure connections.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may limit some functionality.

Legal Basis and Compliance

Our data processing is based on:

Contract Performance: Processing necessary to provide the Excel password recovery service you requested.
Legitimate Interest: Improving our AI algorithms through anonymous performance data.
Legal Compliance: Adherence to GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations.

We conduct regular privacy impact assessments and maintain detailed records of our processing activities.

Privacy FAQ

Usually, yes. Most sites ask you to upload the whole file. That means your secrets are sitting on their servers. We don't do that. We only look at the "lock," not the file itself.

If you stop before the hash is sent, nothing leaves your computer. If it's already processing, we just discard the data immediately. You are in the driver's seat.

Our AI learns patterns, not secrets. It gets better at guessing passwords, but it doesn't memorize your specific file content or personal info.

We are built for exactly that. Since we never see the file content, we are a safe choice for sensitive data. Many professionals use us because we help them stay compliant with privacy rules.
