The fine print, set in plain English.

This policy describes how Citrate handles information submitted through the public website and through its commercial engagements. It is aligned with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and FERPA where applicable.

Information we collect

We collect information you submit through the forms on this site ... your name, role, organization, email, and the content of your message. We do not use third-party advertising trackers. We use a privacy-respecting analytics provider that does not set persistent cookies for identification.

How we use it

Only for the inquiry you submitted. We do not sell your information. We do not share it outside Citrate's internal review and the counsel and contractors required to support our work, all of whom are subject to confidentiality obligations.

How we store it

Submissions are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM envelope encryption. The database (Neon Postgres) is additionally encrypted at rest at the storage layer and connections require TLS in transit. Identifying fields (name, email, company, role, message) are stored only as ciphertext; we keep a salted HMAC fingerprint of the email solely to detect duplicate submissions.

Your rights

You may request access, correction, or deletion of your information at any time by writing to hello@citrate.ai. Where applicable, we honor CCPA and GDPR data subject requests within the required statutory windows.

Children

This site is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. Our host-compute program for K-12 facilities is architected so that no student data ever touches the network.

These terms govern your use of the Citrate public website. Use of the substrate, products, and any commercial engagement is governed by a separate master services agreement.

Acceptable use

Use this site for lawful, informational purposes. Do not attempt to circumvent security controls or to scrape content at scale without written permission.

Automated agents

Read access for indexing and research agents is welcome. Submitting forms with automated agents is not. The forms on this site are intended for human inquiries. Programmatic submissions, regardless of intent, are rejected at the application layer.

Forward-looking statements

This site contains statements about products, certifications, and capabilities in active development. These are forward-looking and subject to change. Where a capability is not yet shipped or certified, the page in question says so plainly.

No investment offer

Nothing on this site constitutes an offer of, or solicitation to buy, any security or token. Citrate has not conducted, and does not intend to conduct, a public token offering. Our commercial model is denominated in dollars on standard contract vehicles.

The patent estate associated with the Citrate substrate is held by Mozi Satori. Specific filings cover consensus innovations, the AI-native execution surface, verifiable compute primitives, and embedded-node architecture.

Defensive posture

Our patent posture is defensive. We do not assert patents against good-faith users, independent researchers, or interoperability work. We reserve the right to assert against parties who first assert against us.

Licensing and inquiries

Detailed patent inquiries ... including license requests, prior-art questions, and assertion concerns ... are routed through counsel. Write to hello@citrate.ai with subject line PATENT INQUIRY and your message will be routed appropriately.
