At Epicurus One, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website at epicurus.one and our AI-powered SEO content platform. The Service is operated by Leonova Technologies Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 17038635, which is the data controller for the personal data described here. Please read this policy carefully. By using Epicurus One, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Leonova Technologies Ltd is the data controller. It decides how and why your personal data is processed, and it is the party you exercise your rights against. Every reference in this policy to "we," "us," or "our" means Leonova Technologies Ltd.
The Epicurus One platform itself is owned by COGNIVO FZ-LLC, a Dubai Free Zone company established in the United Arab Emirates under trade licence 0000004077695, at IDS Building, Office 02, Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed St, Opp. Burjuman Center, Al Karama, Dubai. Cognivo FZ-LLC builds the platform and licenses it to Leonova Technologies Ltd to operate, and it also holds some of the vendor accounts used to run it, such as the AI and search-data providers listed in Section 3. Cognivo FZ-LLC owns the software and acts only as a processor on Leonova's instructions; it does not decide how your personal data is used and does not process it for its own purposes.
You can reach us about anything in this policy at hello@epicurus.one. If you are in the United Kingdom or the European Union and you are not satisfied with how we have handled a request, you have the right to complain to your national data protection authority.
We are privately funded and operate free from government influence. We do not sell, share, or hand over user data to governments, third parties, or private organisations.
Your information is protected by strong security controls and used only to deliver and improve our services.
We believe privacy is not a feature. It is a fundamental right.
When you create an account, we collect:
If you started using Epicurus One by installing it as an application inside your website builder, e-commerce platform, or content management system, we receive some of your information from that platform rather than from you directly, because the platform has already verified who you are. When you activate the application, we may receive:
In this case your account may be created automatically so that the application works the moment you open it, and your email address may initially be an internal placeholder rather than a real address until you provide one. Our lawful basis for this processing is the performance of our contract with you. The platform's own privacy policy governs what it does with your data; this policy governs what we do with it.
To provide our SEO services, we collect information about the websites you add to our platform:
As part of our service, we generate and store:
For subscriptions purchased directly at epicurus.one, all payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe. We never receive, store, or have access to your full credit card number, debit card number, or bank account details. Stripe collects and processes your payment information directly in accordance with their Privacy Policy. We only store your subscription status, plan tier, and Stripe customer/subscription identifiers.
If you obtained Epicurus One through a website platform, marketplace, or authorised reseller, that party collects payment under its own privacy policy and we receive no payment details from it at all — only the identifier of your plan and whether it is active.
We automatically collect certain information when you interact with our platform:
If you choose to connect your Google Search Console account via OAuth2, we access analytics data such as search queries, click-through rates, impressions, and average positions for your connected properties. This data is used solely to provide SEO performance insights and improve content strategy within your dashboard.
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
We work with trusted third-party services to operate our platform. Each service receives only the minimum data necessary to perform its function:
When you connect a website and enable publishing, we send the generated articles, images, and their metadata to the platform that hosts your site, on your instruction. Depending on which platform you connect, that is WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Webflow, Framer, Squarespace, a webhook or automation endpoint you configure (including Zapier, n8n, Make, or Lovable), or the website builder or e-commerce platform on which you installed Epicurus One. Each receives only the content being published and the credentials needed to publish it.
We use a minimal set of cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation and security of our platform:
Both cookies above are strictly necessary and set only after you sign in. When you use Epicurus One inside your website platform's editor, the same two cookies are set with SameSite=None; Secure; Partitioned, because a browser will not send a same-site cookie to an application running inside another site's page. The Partitioned attribute means the cookies are isolated to that context and cannot be used to follow you anywhere else.
We do not use any advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics cookies. We do not track you across other websites, and we do not serve targeted advertisements.
We take the security of your data seriously and implement industry-standard measures to protect it:
While we implement robust security practices, no method of electronic storage or transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we continuously work to protect your personal information.
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. Specifically:
When you delete your account, we will remove your personal data from our active systems. Some information may be retained in backups for a limited period consistent with our backup retention schedule.
Our lawful bases for processing are: performance of our contract with you (delivering the Service, creating and running your account, publishing on your instruction, billing); legitimate interests (securing the platform, preventing fraud and abuse, and improving the product); legal obligation (retaining accounting and billing records); and consent where you choose to connect an optional integration such as Google Search Console, which you can withdraw at any time by disconnecting it.
As a UK-established controller we process personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, and with the EU GDPR where it applies to you. Those laws give you the rights set out below. We do not make any decision about you that is based solely on automated processing and has a legal or similarly significant effect on you.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
To exercise any of these rights, you can use the self-service options in your account settings or contact us at hello@epicurus.one. We respond within one month, as required by the UK and EU GDPR.
If you obtained Epicurus One through a website platform, marketplace, or authorised reseller, some self-service controls (including account deletion and password changes) are managed by that platform instead of by us. You can still exercise every right above by contacting us directly at hello@epicurus.one, and we will act on your request regardless of how you signed up.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties — ever.
We share data only with the categories of service provider described in Section 3, and only to the extent necessary for them to perform their function for us. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and may not use it for their own purposes. We keep the list in Section 3 current; if we add a provider that receives personal data, we update this policy.
In addition, where you obtained Epicurus One through a website platform, marketplace, or authorised reseller, we exchange the limited information needed to keep your subscription working with that party — for example, confirming your installation is active, which plan applies, and whether it has been cancelled. We do not send them your generated content, your keyword research, or your Search Console data.
We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or enforceable governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Epicurus One, our users, or the public.
Epicurus One is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child under 18, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at hello@epicurus.one.
Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. We are established in the United Kingdom, our software licensor and processor Cognivo FZ-LLC is established in the United Arab Emirates, and the third-party providers listed in Section 3 operate principally in the United States and the European Union. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction. Where we transfer personal data out of the UK or the European Economic Area, we rely on an adequacy decision where one exists, and otherwise on the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses together with appropriate technical safeguards. You can request details of the safeguard used for a specific transfer at hello@epicurus.one.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information.
Your continued use of Epicurus One after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please contact us:
We will respond to your inquiry as soon as reasonably possible.
