At MercadoBoost, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy. This Privacy Policy describes the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit the MercadoBoost website.

2. The Information We Collect

For Registered Users:

• History & Outputs: To provide a rich user experience, we securely store your request payloads (e.g., product titles) and the generated results (e.g., optimized translations).
• Billing Data: Processed securely by our payment providers (e.g., Stripe). We do not store your credit card information on our servers.

For Anonymous Users (Free Trial):

• We only store basic technical telemetry (IP address, User-Agent, timestamp) to enforce trial limits and prevent abuse.

Automatic Data Collection (Telemetry):

• Technical Usage: Every tool execution is logged with its status, execution time, cost, and technical identifiers to deduct balances and monitor system health.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use information that we collect about you or that you provide to us:

• To manage your account balance, API keys, and process tool executions.
• To display your execution history (registered users only).
• To prevent fraud, abuse, and enforce rate limits.
• To fulfill any other purpose for which you provide it.

4. Data Security & Storage

We have implemented strong security measures to protect your personal information:

• API Keys: User API keys are heavily encrypted using industry-standard vault solutions.
• Access Controls: Our database is protected by strict row-level security, ensuring users can only access their own history and data.
• Hosting: Our backend is powered by secure cloud infrastructure.
