1. Introduction

Sextaris ("we", "our", "us"), operated at sextaris.com, is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you register, we collect your name and email address. If you subscribe to a paid plan or purchase credits, payment information is collected and processed directly by Stripe -- we do not store your full credit card number on our servers.

We collect information about your use of the Service, including keywords searched, countries selected, check history, and credit usage. This data is used to provide the Service and improve your experience.

Technical Data

We automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, and referring URLs. We may use cookies and similar technologies to maintain your session and preferences.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
• Process transactions and manage your account
• Send transactional emails (account confirmations, billing receipts, service updates)
• Monitor and analyze usage patterns to improve performance
• Detect and prevent fraud or abuse

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:

• Legal requirements — when required by law, court order, or government request

5. Data Retention

We retain your account information for as long as your account is active. Keyword check history is retained for your reference. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal information within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes (e.g., billing records).

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections (TLS/SSL), secure password hashing, and access controls. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Cookies

We use essential cookies to maintain your authenticated session and CSRF protection. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. You may configure your browser to refuse cookies, but this may prevent you from using certain features of the Service.

10. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn we have collected data from a child, we will delete it promptly.
