Clara privacy policy

Last updated October 16, 2026

Clara is an HR assistant provided by Sterndrive Engineering, Inc. and its affiliated Pickren Enterprises companies (4XPro, Hydro Turf, Marine Mat, Short Block Technologies, Sterndrive Engineering, and Watercraft Superstore) ("we", "us") for our current employees. This policy explains what information Clara uses and how we protect it.

Who can use Clara

Only current, active employees of our companies. Accounts are created by HR from payroll records. There is no public sign-up.

Information we use

Clara does not use your pay rate, Social Security number, bank information, or medical information.

How we use it

You can only see your own information. Clara will never show you another employee's information, and other employees cannot see yours.

Text messages

If you choose to receive sign-in codes by text, we use your mobile number only to send those codes and related account messages. We do not sell, rent, or share your mobile number or text-messaging opt-in information with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to stop text messages or HELP for help.

Service providers

Clara runs on Amazon Web Services, which stores the data in the United States and delivers emails and text messages. Your questions are processed by Anthropic's Claude AI service to write Clara's answers. These providers may use the information only to provide their services to us.

Security

Information is encrypted in transit and at rest. Access requires a one-time code. Only authorized HR staff can view conversation records. Accounts are turned off when employment ends.

How long we keep it

Conversation records are kept for five years and then deleted. Employee records are updated weekly from payroll and removed when no longer needed.
