1. Information We Collect
1.1 Account Information
When you create an account, we collect information such as your name, email address, and organizational affiliation. If you authenticate through a third-party identity provider (e.g., Google), we receive basic profile information from that provider.

We automatically collect certain information when you use the Service, including:
- API request metadata (timestamps, model selections, token counts, response latencies)

- Feature usage patterns within the dashboard
1.3 API Input and Output Data
When you send requests through the Service, we process the input prompts and model outputs ("Content") to route them to the appropriate model providers. Please refer to our Terms of Service for details on how Content is handled, including data retention and use policies.
1.4 Payment Information
If you add funds to your balance or subscribe to paid features, payment processing is handled by our third-party payment processor (Stripe). We do not directly store your full credit card number or banking details.
2. How We Use Your Information

3. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information in the following circumstances:
- Model Providers: API requests are routed to third-party model providers (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral) as necessary to fulfill your requests. Each provider's own privacy policy governs their handling of that data.

We retain your account information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. Usage data and logs are retained for a limited period to support analytics and debugging. You may request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us.
5. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete your personal information
- Object to or restrict certain processing of your data
