5. Legal bases (EEA/UK users)

Where GDPR or similar laws apply, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases: performance of a contract (to provide the APIs you request), legitimate interests (e.g., security, service improvement), and compliance with legal obligations. Where required, we will seek your consent (e.g., certain analytics cookies).

6. Retention

We retain logs and other records for as long as needed to operate our services, troubleshoot issues, and satisfy legal, tax, or accounting requirements. Retention periods may vary based on the type of data and our operational needs.

8. International data transfers

We may process and store information in countries outside your own. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards for cross-border data transfers.

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; please use caution and avoid sending sensitive data in URLs or logs.
