Can I use HOVIGuard as a freelancer for business purposes?+
Yes — HOVIGuard can be used as professional software for self-employed work. You register your VAT-ID and receive a business invoice. Whether the subscription cost is deductible as a business expense depends on your tax situation — please clarify the specifics with your tax advisor.
Do I get an invoice with a VAT-ID?+
Yes — once you register your VAT-ID in your account, you receive a monthly invoice with itemized VAT. For intra-EU constellations (reverse charge), VAT is reported accordingly. Details on the invoice format can be found in the docs.
Can I separate personal and business use?+
Within a single account, all inputs are treated the same — there is no hard technical separation between "personal vs. business" in the personal plan. If you want a strict split, you can use two accounts (e.g. one personal, one with VAT-ID for business). Multi-user setups with roles are covered in the business area.
Do I need a data processing agreement (DPA)?+
If you process personal data of your customers in HOVIGuard, a DPA under GDPR is typically required. On request, we provide a signed DPA — whether you actually need one depends on your specific processing activity.
Which data does HOVIGuard process in freelancer mode?+
HOVIGuard processes the content you enter as well as account and billing data. Processing takes place on EU servers; when using external AI models, requests are forwarded to the respective providers (enterprise endpoints with training opt-out). Details are documented in the privacy policy and DPA.
