Privacy Policy for the NAFES Intelligent Research Platform
Aug 28, 2026

This policy applies to the NAFES Intelligent Research Platform at nafes.scholarforce.ai. We process personal information and research materials only as needed to provide and operate the platform.

1. Information we process

  • Account information: name, email address, and account credentials supplied during registration or sign-in.
  • Submitted content: questions, instructions, files, and feedback used to complete intelligent research tasks.
  • Technical information: access time, device and browser details, network address, error logs, and necessary security records.
  • Public research information: publicly available material about experts, institutions, outputs, and academic activities, accompanied by source links where available.

2. How information is used

We use information to provide and maintain platform functions, process research requests, protect accounts and systems, diagnose faults, improve the experience, and meet applicable requirements.

3. Intelligent research and service providers

Intelligent research functions may process necessary data through Dify workflows, model providers, and database, hosting, email, or storage services. Do not submit confidential information, personal information you are not authorised to disclose, or other sensitive material. Each provider's processing is governed by its applicable terms.

4. Sharing

We do not provide personal information for the purpose of selling it. Necessary information may be shared with service providers or competent authorities when required to deliver the service, when authorised, to comply with legal obligations, or to protect lawful rights and platform security.

5. Cookies and local storage

The platform may use cookies or browser storage to maintain sessions, remember language and interface preferences, support security, and understand operational performance. Browser settings can restrict these technologies, although some functions may then be unavailable.

6. Retention and security

Information is retained for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose, unless a longer period is required by applicable rules. We use access controls, transmission safeguards, logs, and backups proportionate to the platform's scale and risks. No networked system can guarantee absolute security.

7. Your choices

Subject to applicable rules, you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of account information, withdraw an authorisation, or close an account. For corrections to public research records, please identify the relevant page and provide a reliable source.

8. Minors

The platform is primarily intended for research and professional users. Minors should use it with guidance from a guardian and should not submit sensitive personal information.

9. Updates

This policy may change as platform functions, service providers, or applicable requirements change. Material updates will be published on this page and take effect on the displayed update date.
