Security & trust.
What we run, where it runs, and what we keep. Written plainly, without exposing more than you need.
Hosting & transport
- The service fronts through Cloudflare; search runs on dedicated servers in the EU (Germany and Finland), reachable only through our gateway.
- All traffic is encrypted in transit (TLS). Security headers — HSTS, frame denial, strict referrer policy — are set site-wide.
Access control
- Every data request is authenticated and checked against the customer's plan server-side — subscriptions and API keys are enforced at the gateway, never in the browser.
- API keys are stored hashed, shown once, revocable instantly, and stop working the moment a plan lapses.
- Webhook deliveries are HMAC-signed so your systems can verify every payload.
What we keep — and don't
- We do not store query text in usage counters. Interactive fair use is counted by day and month. Machine usage uses account-wide billing-period, hourly and minute counters shared across all keys; only aggregate hourly billable units are reported to Stripe.
- Saved searches and alerts store exactly what you asked us to save, and are deleted when you delete them — or your account.
- Share links are opaque, expire after 90 days, and never carry query text in the URL.
- Account deletion revokes keys, cancels billing, and removes saved data immediately; limited billing and security records are retained as described in the Privacy Policy.
