SagaPay (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates an AI-Optimized B2B PayFi Trade Finance platform that tokenizes invoices as Real-World Assets (RWAs) and provides instant liquidity using stablecoins. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you use our website at sagapay.one and our related services (collectively, the “Platform”).

2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
2.1 Invoice Processing & AI Extraction
Uploaded invoice documents are processed by our AI engine powered by OpenAI GPT-4o (text and vision models). The AI extracts structured financial parameters including amounts, dates, buyer/seller information, and payment terms. This extraction is automated and occurs within our Temporal.io workflow orchestration system.
2.2 Risk Scoring & Underwriting
We use AI-driven risk scoring algorithms to assess the creditworthiness of invoices. Risk scores are computed using extracted invoice data, historical payment patterns, and buyer verification results. All risk assessments above threshold require mandatory human approval (human-in-the-loop review).
2.3 Account Management & Authentication
We use Clerk for identity management, multi-factor authentication, organization setup, and role-based access control. Session tokens and JWT claims are used to enforce row-level security (RLS) in our database.
2.4 Blockchain Settlement & Tokenization
Verified invoices are tokenized as ERC-3643 compliant NFTs on the Neon EVM (Solana). We use your wallet address and transaction data to process on-chain settlements and USDC stablecoin disbursements.
2.5 Compliance & Legal Obligations
We process your data to comply with applicable anti-money laundering regulations, tax reporting requirements, financial services regulations, and valid legal process requests.
2.6 Service Improvement & Analytics
We analyze aggregated and anonymized usage data to improve our platform, optimize AI model performance, enhance security, and develop new features.
3. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with the following categories of service providers necessary to operate the Platform:
| Provider | Purpose | Data Shared |
|---|---|---|
| Stripe | Payment processing & subscription billing | Billing details, payment method tokens, transaction amounts |
| Didit | KYC/AML identity verification | Government ID documents, selfie/liveness data, business registration |
| OpenAI | AI invoice extraction & risk analysis | Invoice document content (text and images) for processing |
| Clerk | Authentication & identity management | Email, name, profile data, organization membership |
| Supabase | Database & file storage | All platform data (encrypted at rest, RLS-enforced) |
| Neon EVM | Blockchain settlement | Wallet addresses, tokenized invoice metadata, transaction data |
We may also share information with law enforcement or regulatory authorities when required by applicable law, subpoena, court order, or other valid legal process.
4. Blockchain Data
⚠ Important Notice About Blockchain Transparency
Transactions recorded on the Neon EVM (Solana) blockchain are public and immutable. Once invoice data is tokenized as an on-chain RWA NFT, the associated transaction hashes, wallet addresses, token metadata, and settlement records cannot be modified or deleted. This is an inherent property of blockchain technology.
We minimize on-chain data by storing only essential transaction identifiers and tokenized representations on the blockchain. Sensitive business data (invoice contents, personal information, financial details) is stored off-chain in our encrypted database, with only cryptographic references recorded on-chain.
Your blockchain wallet address may be publicly associated with your tokenized invoice transactions. We recommend using dedicated business wallets separate from personal cryptocurrency holdings.
5. Data Security
We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your information:
- Encryption at Rest: All data stored in Supabase Postgres is encrypted using AES-256 encryption at rest
- Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is protected by TLS 1.3
- Row-Level Security (RLS): Multi-tenant data isolation enforced at the database level using Clerk JWT claims
- Secure File Storage: Invoice PDFs are stored in Supabase Storage with per-tenant access policies
- Access Controls: Role-based access control (RBAC) enforced through Clerk Organizations with least-privilege principles
- Audit Logging: Immutable audit trails record all data access, modifications, and compliance-related actions
- Incident Response: We maintain documented incident response procedures and will notify affected users within 72 hours of a confirmed data breach
While we employ rigorous safeguards, no system is completely impenetrable. We cannot guarantee absolute security and encourage you to use strong passwords and enable multi-factor authentication.
