2025/11/02
Last updated: November 2, 2025
This Privacy Policy explains how the MiniMax-M2 services available at https://minimax-m2.com and related domains (“MiniMax-M2”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collect, use, disclose, and safeguard personal data. We operate the MiniMax M2 reasoning model through hosted chat experiences, developer APIs, and workspace tooling (the “Services”). This notice applies to our marketing site, documentation portal, dashboard, public chat, and customer support channels.
MiniMax-M2 is the data controller for personal data processed through the Services unless we act as a processor on your instructions. This policy complements our Cookie Policy and is intended to comply with the EU/UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, VCDPA, Singapore PDPA, and comparable regulations. Where consent is required, we present it via banners, in-product settings, or contractual agreements.
| Category | What We Collect | Purpose & Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Account Data | Email address (required), hashed authentication credentials, organisation/workspace name, role, invited team members. | Needed to create and secure your workspace. We currently require an email address to enable login, password resets, and security alerts. |
| Front-end Conversation Data | Messages you type in the hosted MiniMax-M2 chat UI, including system prompts, attachments, and model responses. | Stored so you and your teammates can view the conversation history inside the dashboard. You can delete conversations at any time; admins can disable retention across a workspace. |
| API Conversation Data | Prompts and responses sent through REST or SDK calls. | We process API payloads transiently to generate a response and meter usage. We do not retain API request or response bodies after a response is delivered, except for pseudonymised metrics (token counts, latency, error codes). |
| Service Usage Data | IP address, device/browser metadata, session identifiers, feature engagement, request ids, <think> reasoning split indicators, rate-limit events. | Used to secure the service, detect abuse, and improve reliability. Telemetry is aggregated and stored for short periods. |
| Billing Data | Contact name, email, billing address, tax ids, and payment instrument tokens handled by Creem (Merchant of Record). | Creem processes card data; we only store references, invoices, and receipts. |
| Support & Feedback | Emails, chat transcripts, attachments, or survey responses you send to our support team. | Used to troubleshoot issues and improve the platform. |
We process personal data to:
Our legal bases include performance of a contract (for account provisioning and service delivery), legitimate interests (security, product improvement), compliance with legal obligations, and consent (for optional cookies or marketing).
We do not sell personal data. We share information only with:
We use strictly necessary cookies for login, security, and consent records, and optional cookies for functionality or analytics. See our Cookie Policy for details and preference controls.
When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it unless law requires longer storage.
We implement administrative, technical, and organisational safeguards such as:
No service can guarantee absolute security, but we continuously improve our defences.
MiniMax-M2 operates from the United States with infrastructure in the U.S., EU, and Singapore. When data leaves your region, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or other recognised safeguards to maintain adequate protection in line with GDPR/UK GDPR and analogous laws.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
Submit requests to privacy@minimax-m2.com. We may ask for additional information to verify your identity before acting. We respond within the timelines mandated by applicable law.
The Services are intended for individuals 16 years and older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, contact us so we can delete it.
We may update this policy when our Services or legal obligations change. Material updates will be communicated via email, dashboard banners, or other prominent notice. The “Last updated” date reflects the most recent revision.
