Privacy & Security

Your life, connected. Your data, locked to you.

What NOVA can see, what it keeps, and how every piece of it is protected. Nothing is sold, and nothing is used to train AI.

Connecting an account

What connecting does, and doesn’t.

When you connect Gmail or a calendar, that service gives NOVA a limited key so it can read for you. NOVA never sees your password, and you can take the key back at any time, in NOVA or in your Google account.

Connecting never lets NOVA send, pay or delete on its own. Those wait for your OK, or are never allowed.

  • Encrypted, twiceEverything travels over HTTPS and is stored encrypted. The keys to your accounts are encrypted again (AES-256) and never reach your browser or phone.
  • Walled offEvery request is checked against your account on the server. No one else’s account can read yours.
  • Only what’s needed goes to the AIEach question sends the few relevant pieces, never your history, under terms that don’t allow training on it.
  • Safe sign-inYou sign in with Google or Apple, so NOVA holds no password. Connecting a bank needs a code from your authenticator app, and you can sign out of every device at once.
  • Tested and scannedEvery change is tested and scanned for leaked keys before it goes live. The code is reviewed for security, and alerts are checked every day.
  • Yours to take backDisconnect any account, or delete your NOVA account and everything in it, at any time.

Your data, your memory

Your history lives in your own durable store, separate from any AI model. Models can change. Your memory stays yours.

Every account, separate

Connect two Google accounts or three. Personal, business and work identities stay labeled and walled off.

Private by default

Sensitive memories stay closed until you open them. Keys stay on the server. Sign out everywhere in one tap.

Questions

Good to know

Is NOVA a chatbot?

No. Conversation is how you use it, but NOVA keeps a lasting memory, connects to your accounts, tracks goals and tasks, and runs agents that prepare and carry out work. It brings things to you before you ask.

Which services does it connect to?

Google (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Tasks), Microsoft (Outlook, Hotmail and Microsoft 365), Yahoo, iCloud and AOL mail, CRMs like HubSpot, payments like Stripe, wearables like WHOOP and Oura, LinkedIn, GitHub and more through a searchable connection library. You can connect several accounts from the same provider, and request new ones.

Can NOVA spend money or trade for me?

No. Finance in NOVA is information only: what is coming, what is safe to spend, what is changing. Moving money and signing anything are permanently off-limits to agents.

Who can see my memories?

Only you, unless you choose to share. Every person who signs in gets their own private memory, and no user can reach another's. Detailed memories stay hidden on the main screen until you open them. With NOVA Together you can share chosen items, like free/busy time or a trip, with people you invite, and pause or stop at any time. Work data is never shareable.

Where is the full privacy policy?

NOVA's privacy policy covers what NOVA collects, how it is used and protected, sharing through NOVA Together, the phone apps and your rights. Read the privacy policy or the terms of service. Questions about your data go to privacy@yournovabrain.com.

How do I contact NOVA?

Write to whichever fits and it reaches a real person. Questions and sign-ups: hello@yournovabrain.com. Help with the app: support@yournovabrain.com. Payments and plans: billing@yournovabrain.com. Your data and privacy: privacy@yournovabrain.com.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. NOVA for iPhone is coming to the App Store (testers have it now through TestFlight), with reminders on your lock screen, live notifications from NOVA Together and “Share to NOVA” from any app. There is an Android app with voice and “Hey NOVA”, and the web app works on any phone.

Can I sign in with Apple?

Yes, in the iPhone app, including with “Hide My Email”. If your Apple ID uses the same email as your Google sign-in, you land in the same NOVA. If you delete your account, NOVA also disconnects itself from your Apple ID.
