Privacy Policy
Last updated 29 October 2026
Corin is a reminders and life-admin service you use by text on WhatsApp. This policy explains what information we collect, why, who we share it with, and the choices you have. It applies to heycorin.com and to the Corin WhatsApp number.
Who we are
Corin is a trading name of RECIO LTD ("we", "us"), the controller of your personal information. You can reach us at hello@heycorin.com.
What we collect
- Your phone number, your country and your time zone, so we can verify you, message you and send reminders at the right local time.
- Your name, if you tell us it.
- Your messages to Corin and Corin's replies, including the text of voice notes. We turn voice notes into text and do not keep the audio.
- Your reminders, to-dos and lists, and the details you ask Corin to remember (for example a shoe size or a birthday).
- Forwarded emails. If you forward an email to your Corin address, we read it to create reminders and save useful details such as a booking reference. We keep what we extract (and the email's subject line may be part of a saved detail), not the full email.
- People you share with. If you connect with someone, we store the name you call them and, once they join, their phone number. They are told what you share with them.
- Your email address, if you join the waitlist. We use it only to send you an invite.
- The invite code you joined with, so we know how people found Corin.
- Usage information, such as how many messages you send each day, used to keep the service fair and to control costs.
- Requests Corin couldn't help with, recorded as a short category and summary so we can improve the service.
How we use it
- To run the service: verify your number, understand what you send, set and send reminders, and send your morning and week-ahead texts.
- To keep the service secure and prevent abuse.
- To improve Corin, using usage counts and the summaries of requests it couldn't help with.
We rely on the need to provide the service you asked for, and on our legitimate interest in keeping it safe and improving it. We do not sell your information and we do not use it for advertising.
Who we share it with
We use these providers to run Corin. They process information on our behalf:
- Meta (WhatsApp). Messages travel through the WhatsApp Business Platform. WhatsApp's own privacy policy applies to your use of WhatsApp.
- Anthropic. The text of your messages, your saved details and your open reminders are sent to Anthropic's Claude model so Corin can understand and reply.
- Cloudflare. Hosting, our database, speech-to-text for voice notes, email routing for forwarded emails, and the "verify you're human" check on sign-up.
Some of these providers process information outside the UK, including in the United States. Where they do, they rely on legal safeguards such as approved contractual terms. We may also disclose information where the law requires it.
How long we keep it
Waitlist email addresses are kept until we send an invite or you ask us to remove yours (email hello@heycorin.com). We keep the rest of your information while you use Corin. Conversations, reminders and saved details stay until you delete them. Sign-up codes expire within minutes, and message de-duplication records are removed after a few days.
Your choices and rights
- Delete everything. Text DELETE MY DATA to Corin and your messages, reminders, saved details, sharing links and account are deleted.
- Stop messages. Text STOP and Corin stops messaging you and cancels your open reminders.
- Forget one thing. Ask Corin to forget any detail it has saved.
- Other rights. Under UK data protection law you can ask to see, correct or delete your information, object to how we use it, and ask for a copy. Email us and we will reply within a month.
- Complaints. You can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Cookies
This website does not use advertising or analytics cookies. The human check on sign-up is provided by Cloudflare and may set what it needs to work.
Children
Corin is not for children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their information.
Changes
If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will update the date above and, where appropriate, tell you on WhatsApp.
