  • Log Data: This may include your IP address, browser type and version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, and time spent on those pages.
  • Analytics Data: We use Google Analytics and PostHog to understand user behavior, record session replays (to debug issues), and analyze feature usage. This helps us improve the user experience and fix bugs faster.

2. Legal Basis for Processing (EEA/UK Users)

If you are from the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described above depends on the Personal Data concerned and the specific context in which we collect it:

  • Performance of a Contract: We need your email, account details, and inputs to deliver the AI, API, and Tool services you have subscribed to.
  • Legitimate Interests: We process data for security checks, fraud prevention (e.g., preventing API abuse), and product improvement (analytics).
  • Consent: We rely on your consent for non-essential cookies and marketing newsletters. You may withdraw this consent at any time and stop using our Services.

5. Privacy Information for Specific Services

5.1. AI Services

To provide AI Services, Geekflare utilizes various third-party AI model providers, such as Gemini, OpenAI, DeepSeek, Mistral, and Anthropic (collectively, "Third-Party AI Providers").

  • When you submit a prompt ("Input"), it is securely transmitted to the relevant provider to generate a response ("Output").
  • We exclusively use Trusted Providers who have a contractual policy of not using customer data submitted via their APIs to train their general-purpose models.
  • Geekflare stores your Inputs and Outputs on our servers to display your session history within your account dashboard. We do not use this data to train our own models.

5.2. API Services

  • To ensure security and billing accuracy, we log metadata about your API requests (API key, IP address, timestamp, endpoint). We do not log the full payload (body) of your requests unless necessary for temporary debugging.
  • If you use our Scraping API, Geekflare acts as a data conduit. We verify that the request is technically successful and pass the data back to you. We do not retain the content of the websites you scrape for longer than is necessary to cache the response to improve performance.

5.3. Bring Your Own Key (BYOK)

If you provide your own API keys (e.g., an OpenAI Key) to use within Geekflare, these keys are encrypted at rest in our database. They are only decrypted at the moment of making a request on your behalf and are never shared with third parties or visible to Geekflare staff.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies to help us operate, analyze, and improve our Services.

  • Essential Cookies: Required for login and security.
  • Analytics Cookies: Used by Google Analytics and PostHog to track website performance.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you won't be able to use some or entire Services.

7. Data Security and Retention

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit (TLS/SSL) and at rest. Our infrastructure is hosted on Google Cloud Platform, AWS and Cloudflare, which adheres to high security standards (ISO 27001, SOC 2).

We retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. If you delete your account, your personal data is removed from our active databases, though some data may remain in backups for a limited period for disaster recovery purposes.
