For the general DAQS website and SaaS platform privacy policy, please refer to: General Privacy Policy

1. Scope of this policy

DAQS Assist is a desktop add-in that runs inside Autodesk Revit. This policy applies only to data processed by the DAQS Assist add-in during its use in Revit projects.

This policy does not apply to:

• General website usage (daqs.io)

• Marketing communications

• Non-Revit DAQS services unless explicitly stated

2. Data processed by the DAQS Assist

2.1 Revit model data

DAQS Assist processes Revit model data locally within the user’s Revit environment for the purpose of model validation, analysis, and reporting.

This may include:

• Element parameters and parameter values

• Family and type metadata

• Project information and settings

• Validation results and rule evaluation outputs

By default:

• No Revit model geometry is transmitted

• No Revit model files are uploaded

• Processing occurs locally on the user’s machine

2.2 Personal data

DAQS Assist does not intentionally collect personal data.

Depending on the Revit environment and configuration, the application may have access to:

• Revit username

• Revit project metadata that may contain user-defined names

This data is used solely to provide functionality within the application and is not used for profiling, advertising, or marketing purposes.

3. Data transmission and cloud services

3.1 Local-only usage

DAQS Assist processes all Revit model data locally within the user’s Autodesk Revit environment.
The application does not transmit or upload Revit model data, geometry, parameters, or validation results outside the user’s system.

When DAQS Assist is used in local-only mode:

• All processing remains on the user’s system

• No data is transmitted to DAQS servers

• No data is shared with third parties

3.2 Configuration data downloaded from DAQS platform

When DAQS Assist is connected to a DAQS project, the application downloads configuration data from the DAQS platform in order to perform data validation.

This configuration data may include:

• Validation rules

• Rule metadata

• Lookup tables

• Reference datasets required for rule evaluation

This data:

• Is provided by DAQS

• Does not contain customer Revit model data

• Is used solely to configure validation behaviour inside Revit

DAQS Assist does not upload any Revit model data, validation results, or project information to DAQS or to any third party.
All Revit model data remains within the user’s local Revit environment.

4. Data sharing and third parties

DAQS Assist does not share application data with third parties by default.

If cloud services are used:

• Data is processed only on infrastructure controlled by DAQS or its contracted service providers

• Any service providers are required to apply data protection measures consistent with this policy

• DAQS does not provide application data to advertising networks, analytics platforms, or data brokers

5. Data retention and deletion

5.1 Local data

DAQS Assist does not persistently store Revit model data locally beyond the active Revit session unless explicitly saved by the user (e.g. exported reports).

5.2 Cloud data

If data is uploaded to DAQS services:

• Data is retained only for the duration necessary to provide the service

• Data is retained for the term of the customer’s agreement or until deletion is requested

• Upon termination or deletion request, data will be removed within a reasonable timeframe

6. User rights, consent, and data deletion

Users may:

• Request access to data stored by DAQS

• Request correction or deletion of stored data

• Revoke consent for data processing by discontinuing use of DAQS Assist

Requests can be submitted via email to: contact@daqs.io

DAQS will respond to requests in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.

7. Security measures

DAQS applies appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect data processed by DAQS Assist, including:

• Access control

• Secure data transmission where applicable

• Principle of least privilege for internal access

8. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated to reflect changes in functionality or regulatory requirements.
