Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 14, 2026
Eeagli Chart Studio is operated by Eeagli GmbH as the data controller for the Eeagli Chart Studio service. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, the legal basis for each processing activity, and how we protect your rights under the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nFADP) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Eeagli Chart Studio is operated by:
Eeagli GmbH
Bachtelstrasse 19

Switzerland
UID: CHE-349.208.425

Information we collect
We collect information necessary to provide and operate the platform, including:
- Account information: name, email address, and organisation details provided during registration or OAuth sign-in (via Google, Microsoft, or LinkedIn)
- Project data: data uploaded or created within Eeagli Chart Studio
- Booking and enquiry data: name, work email, organisation details, and meeting preferences submitted through booking forms
- Payment data: billing name and address, location, tax information, transaction details and subscription status processed by Stripe and, for Managed Payments purchases, Link; Eeagli does not store card numbers directly
- Usage information: operational metrics and product-usage activity such as logins, project opens, project creation, publishing, and export activity in signed-in accounts
- Technical information: device type, browser, IP address (anonymised for analytics), and session identifiers for security and service delivery
Public chart preview
The public chart preview starts with sample data. Edits in Preview mode are kept in your browser's memory for that visit; they are not saved as a customer project, uploaded, or used to start a render. They reset when you leave the preview. Please do not enter confidential or personal data in the preview.
Normal website delivery and security logs may still record technical request information. Optional public-site analytics run only after you choose to allow them in Cookie settings.
If you choose an additional Google font while editing the preview, your browser requests that font from Google Fonts. Google receives the technical connection information needed to deliver it; your chart data is not part of the font request.
Eeagli Charts add-in for PowerPoint
The Eeagli Charts add-in puts your Eeagli charts on PowerPoint slides. It runs inside PowerPoint and works with Eeagli's own servers.
- Sign-in: you sign in through Eeagli's own sign-in window. The add-in then keeps a sign-in key in PowerPoint's storage on your device so you stay signed in. Signing out in the add-in ends the key.
- What the add-in reads from Eeagli: the charts you can open in your workspace (their names, folders, previews and the data needed to draw them), your credit balance, and videos of your charts.
- What the add-in puts in your presentation: pictures and videos of your charts, each with hidden labels that identify it (its Eeagli chart ID, title, how it appears and when it was added or updated), so the add-in can recognise and update it later. These labels stay in the presentation file and can be read by anyone who opens the file with suitable tools.
- Presentation content sent to Eeagli: only when you change a video chart that is already on a slide. A copy of that slide is sent to Eeagli's servers, the video is replaced, and the slide is sent back; the copy is used only to rebuild the slide and is not kept. Otherwise the add-in reads your presentation only on your device (for example the slide size) and does not send it to Eeagli.
- Videos: a video you make in the add-in is made by Eeagli's video service and saved to your workspace's media library, as with Export, using your workspace's credits. Eeagli keeps a smaller copy of each video on its servers for adding to slides.
- On your device: the add-in remembers your chart list, chart previews and your last Start choice in PowerPoint's local storage so it opens quickly. Signing out removes the sign-in key and the remembered chart list.
- Microsoft: like every Office add-in, it loads Microsoft's Office JavaScript library from Microsoft's servers. Microsoft's privacy statement covers PowerPoint and that library.
We process this information to provide the add-in (contract performance). The add-in's pane has no advertising or analytics trackers.
How we use information and legal basis
We use collected information for the following purposes. For each purpose, we state the legal basis under the GDPR and nFADP:
- Provide and maintain the service (contract performance) — authentication, account management, chart creation, exports, publishing, and collaboration features
- Process payments and manage subscriptions (contract performance) — billing, invoicing, indirect-tax handling and subscription lifecycle via Stripe and, for Managed Payments purchases, Link as merchant of record
- Schedule meetings (contract performance / pre-contractual measures) — processing booking requests via Calendly
- Public website analytics (consent) — Ahrefs Web Analytics, Google Analytics 4 with anonymised IP and PostHog on public pages are loaded only after you give explicit consent via our cookie banner
- Authenticated product telemetry (legitimate interest / contract performance as applicable) — first-party usage events in signed-in accounts help us understand product adoption, support customers, investigate failures, and improve reliability
- Security and abuse prevention (legitimate interest) — monitoring for unauthorised access, rate limiting, and fraud detection
- Platform improvement (legitimate interest) — aggregated and anonymised usage data to improve features and performance
- Communication (consent / legitimate interest) — responding to your enquiries and, where you have opted in, sending product updates
Eeagli does not sell customer data.
User responsibility for uploaded data
Users are responsible for ensuring that any data uploaded to the platform complies with applicable privacy and data protection laws.
Third-party services
To operate the platform, Eeagli relies on the following service providers and independent controllers, as applicable. Each provider processes data under its own contractual and legal role.
- Microsoft Azure (Switzerland / EU) — cloud infrastructure, hosting, and compute
- Stripe (USA, with EU data processing) — payment processing, billing, invoicing, fraud prevention and Managed Payments infrastructure
- Sold through Link, LLC (Link) (USA) — merchant of record for Managed Payments purchases, including payment collection, applicable indirect-tax handling, receipts, transaction support and subscription management
- Google Analytics (GA4) (USA, with EU data processing) — public website analytics with anonymised IP, loaded only with your consent
- PostHog (EU Cloud, Frankfurt) — authenticated product analytics and optional public website analytics; session replay, surveys, feature flags, experiments, and advanced diagnostics may be enabled selectively
- Ahrefs Web Analytics — privacy-friendly website analytics that does not rely on cookies or persistent identifiers by default and is loaded only with your consent
- Calendly (USA, with EU data processing) — meeting scheduling for booking and partner enquiries
- Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn (OAuth providers) — authentication only; we receive your name and email to create or verify your account
Data location and transfers
Customer data is primarily processed and stored in Microsoft Azure infrastructure located in Switzerland and the European Economic Area.
Some third-party services (Stripe, Link, Google Analytics, Ahrefs, Calendly) may process data outside Switzerland or the EEA. PostHog is configured in the EU cloud region for product analytics and related diagnostics. Where data is transferred outside Switzerland or the EEA, we rely on:
- The Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework where applicable
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission
- Adequacy decisions recognised by the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC)
Cookies and tracking technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies on the public website. Optional public-site analytics cookies are only set after you give explicit consent via our cookie banner. In the signed-in product, we may use first-party identifiers and local storage for authenticated product telemetry described in this policy. You can change your website cookie preferences at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the page footer.
Essential cookies (always active)
- Session / authentication cookies — required for login, security, and core platform functionality. Set by Eeagli. Duration: session or up to 30 days.
Analytics cookies and tracking technologies
- _ga — Google Analytics 4. Distinguishes unique public-site visitors. Duration: 2 years. Set only with your consent.
- _ga_<ID> — Google Analytics 4. Maintains public-site session state. Duration: 2 years. Set only with your consent.
- PostHog public-site cookies / local storage keys — used on public pages only with your consent.
- Authenticated product telemetry identifiers — first-party session identifiers and local storage used to understand signed-in account activity, product adoption, and export reliability.
- Ahrefs Web Analytics — website analytics script that, according to Ahrefs, does not rely on cookies or persistent identifiers by default. We nevertheless load it only with your consent.
We also store a session identifier (eeagli_analytics_session_id) in your browser's sessionStorage
(not a cookie) for internal event grouping. This is cleared when you close the browser tab.
Third-party cookies
The embedded Calendly calendar loads when you open a booking page and may use cookies or similar technologies for scheduling. You can instead use the direct Calendly link or contact us without using the embed. See Calendly's Privacy Policy for details.
Stripe and Link may set cookies or use similar technologies during checkout and subscription management. See Stripe's Privacy Policy and Link's Privacy Policy for details.
Data security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational safeguards to protect information. These include encrypted transport (HTTPS), restricted access controls, and operational security practices designed to protect customer data.
Parts of the platform infrastructure are hosted on Microsoft Azure cloud infrastructure in Switzerland and the EEA.
Access to internal systems is limited to authorised personnel under least-privilege access policies.
Data retention
Account information and project data are retained while your account remains active.
When an account is closed, personal data is deleted or anonymised within 90 days, except where retention is required for legal, tax, or regulatory obligations (for example, Swiss tax records must be retained for 10 years).
Analytics data is collected in anonymised or aggregated form and does not constitute personal data after processing.
Your rights
Under the Swiss nFADP and the EU GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Rectification — request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
- Erasure — request deletion of your personal data ("right to be forgotten")
- Restriction — request that we limit processing of your data
- Data portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
- Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interest
- Withdraw consent — withdraw consent at any time for consent-based processing (e.g. analytics cookies) without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@eeagli.com. We will respond within 30 days.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or, if you are in the EU, with your local supervisory authority.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updated versions will be posted on this page with the revised effective date. If changes are material, we will notify active account holders by email.
