1) Privacy stance

We build for people who hate surveillance capitalism. We aim to collect the minimum data required to run the Service, secure it, and support you. We do not sell your data.

2) What we collect

• Account data: email address and basic account identifiers.
• Customer-provided scope: domains, internet protocol (IP) addresses, hostnames, and monitoring configuration.
• Scan outputs & evidence: service fingerprints, banners, transport layer security (TLS) metadata, and findings produced by our scanners.
• Usage and security logs: limited logs for abuse prevention, debugging, and security monitoring.

3) What we do not do

• No selling of personal data.
• No ad-tech tracking pixels by default.
• No “surprise” sharing with data brokers.

4) How we use data

• Provide and maintain the Service (monitoring, alerts, reporting).
• Improve accuracy (including reducing false positives).
• Secure the platform, prevent abuse, and enforce authorization requirements.
• Support and communications you request.

5) How we share data

We share data only as needed:

• Service providers that help us run infrastructure (under confidentiality obligations).
• Legal compliance when required by valid legal process.
• Business transfers (for example, acquisition) with appropriate safeguards.

6) Law enforcement requests

We respect legitimate legal process, but we also believe overbroad requests deserve resistance. Where legally permitted, we will (a) request clarity and narrow scope, and (b) notify affected customers when appropriate.

7) Data retention

We retain data only as long as needed for the purposes described above. See our Data Retention Policy for details.

8) Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect your data. No system is perfect; you should maintain your own security program and backups.

9) Your choices

• You may request access, correction, or deletion of your account data, subject to legal and operational limitations.
• You may adjust monitoring scope and recipients in your configuration.

10) Governing law

This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States of America (USA).
