Effective Date: 2/26/2026

Last Updated: 3/3/2026

1. INTRODUCTION

Perspective™ is a global media monitoring and geopolitical intelligence platform designed to provide real-time access to publicly available information, including international news sources, government press releases, and public social media commentary.

This Privacy Policy describes how Perspective collects, uses, processes, stores, and protects information when users access or use the Perspective mobile application, web platform, APIs, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”).

Perspective is developed and operated by Pangea Group International (“PGI”).

This policy applies to all users, including government agencies, enterprise clients, contractors, and authorized end users.

2. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Perspective is designed primarily to collect and process publicly available information (PAI). We do not collect personal information from end users for account creation or onboarding and do not require end users to provide personal details to use the Platform. Access is provided via administrator-issued credentials (username and password).

A. Account & Administrative Information

We do not request or collect end-user personal information such as name, email address, phone number, role/title, or organizational affiliation as part of standard Platform access.

We may process only the minimum authentication information necessary to provide login access, such as:

  • Username
  • Password (stored in a secure, hashed form)
  • Authentication/session metadata necessary to maintain secure access (e.g., login status, session tokens)

B. Usage & Device Information

To operate the Platform securely and reliably, we may automatically collect limited technical information, such as:

  • IP address
  • Device identifiers (where available)
  • Operating system
  • Browser type
  • Log data (date/time access)
  • Platform interaction metrics (high-level)

C. Publicly Available Content Data

Perspective aggregates:

  • News articles from international media outlets
  • Government press releases

Perspective does not access private social media accounts, private communications, or restricted databases.

D. AI-Generated Insights

The Platform may generate:

  • Analytical summaries
  • Narrative trend analysis
  • Keyword clustering
  • Sentiment scoring
  • Influence mapping

These outputs are derived from publicly available content.

3. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING (Where Applicable)

For users located in jurisdictions requiring legal basis disclosures (e.g., European Union under GDPR), processing may be based on:

  • Contractual necessity (providing Platform access)
  • Legitimate interest in intelligence analysis and Platform security
  • Compliance with legal obligations
  • Consent (where applicable)

Government and enterprise deployments may operate under additional legal authorities or contractual frameworks.

4. HOW WE USE INFORMATION

  • Authenticate and manage user sessions
  • Deliver real-time media monitoring services
  • Generate AI-assisted analysis and summaries
  • Improve system performance and functionality
  • Maintain cybersecurity protections
  • Detect misuse or unauthorized access
  • Comply with legal and regulatory obligations

We do not sell personal information.

5. DATA SHARING & DISCLOSURE

Perspective may share information only in the following circumstances:

A. Service Providers

With secure third-party providers supporting:

  • Cloud hosting
  • Infrastructure
  • Security monitoring
  • Analytics tools (where used)

All vendors are contractually bound to confidentiality and data protection obligations.

6. DATA RETENTION

We retain:

  • Public content archives: In accordance with contractual or analytic needs

Retention periods may vary depending on regulatory, contractual, or security requirements.

Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards for cross-border data transfers, including:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses
  • Contractual enterprise safeguards
  • Government security frameworks

8. DATA SECURITY

  • Encryption at rest and in transit
  • Role-based access controls
  • Multi-factor authentication (MFA) (where enabled)
  • Audit logging
  • Continuous monitoring
  • Secure cloud infrastructure
  • Zero-trust architecture principles

For government clients, additional compliance frameworks (e.g., FedRAMP, NIST, CJIS where applicable) may apply.

9. USER RIGHTS (Where Applicable)

Depending on jurisdiction, users may have rights to:

  • Access personal data
  • Correct inaccuracies
  • Request deletion

  • Social media content may reflect personal opinions.
  • Influence metrics may change over time.

  • Notify affected clients in accordance with contractual and legal requirements
  • Cooperate with regulatory authorities where required

Important Note:

Even if you “don’t take user information,” most platforms still process some technical data (like IP address, device information, and security logs) to maintain secure access and protect against fraud or misuse. Perspective processes such limited technical data only as needed to operate the Platform securely.
