This data is collected to help you (the project owner) understand the context of feedback. It is stored as part of the feedback item and is subject to the same data handling as all project data.

We use Google Analytics (property ID: G-FHK3Y844ED) on our marketing website (minolith.io) to understand how visitors find and use the site. Google Analytics collects:
- Pages visited and time spent
- Referring website or search terms
- Browser type, operating system, and device category
- Approximate geographic location (country/region level)
Google Analytics data is anonymised and aggregated. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.
2.6 API and Server Logs
We log API requests for security, debugging, and abuse prevention. Logs may include:
- IP address
- Request path and method
- Timestamp
- API key identifier (securely stored; raw keys are not retained)
- Response status code
Server logs are retained for a limited period and are not used for marketing or profiling.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
- Process billing and manage your account
- Communicate with you about your account, service updates, or support requests
- Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents
- Enforce our Terms of Service

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your project data to train AI models or for any purpose other than providing the Service to you.
4. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services that may process your data:
4.1 Stripe
Payment processing, invoicing, and tax calculation. Stripe receives your email address and payment details. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.
4.2 Google Analytics
Website analytics on minolith.io (marketing site only, not the app dashboard). See Google's Privacy Policy.
4.3 Cloudflare
CDN, DNS, and DDoS protection. Cloudflare processes requests to our domain and may log IP addresses and request metadata. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.
4.4 Google reCAPTCHA v3
Bot prevention on login and registration pages. reCAPTCHA collects hardware and software information, including device and application data, and sends it to Google for analysis. See Google's Privacy Policy.
5. Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- Session cookies — to maintain your login session on the dashboard (essential, cannot be disabled)
- CSRF tokens — to protect against cross-site request forgery attacks (essential)
- Google Analytics cookies — to collect anonymous usage data on the marketing site (non-essential)
- reCAPTCHA cookies — to assess bot risk on login and registration pages
The API (api.minolith.io) and MCP server (mcp.minolith.io) do not use cookies. They authenticate via API key headers only.
6. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your data, including:
- Encryption in transit: All connections are encrypted via TLS/SSL
- Secure credential storage: Passwords and API keys are cryptographically hashed before storage and cannot be retrieved in plaintext
- Two-factor authentication: Optional 2FA available for account access
- Rate limiting: Automated abuse prevention on all API endpoints
- Spending caps: Configurable limits to prevent unexpected charges
- Tenant isolation: Strict data separation between accounts; no cross-tenant data access is possible
While we take reasonable steps to protect your information, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Data Retention and Deletion
We retain your data only for as long as necessary to provide the Service:
- Project data: Retained until you delete it. Deletion is immediate and permanent (hard delete). Deleted data stops being metered for billing.
- Account data: Retained while your account is active. Deleted within 30 days of account closure.
- Server logs: Retained for a limited period for security and debugging, then automatically purged.
- Billing records: Retained as required by Australian tax law (typically 5 years).

- Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information
