3. AI Analysis Processing

When you submit a store URL for analysis, the following processing occurs:

1. The URL is crawled by Firecrawl to extract publicly available page content (text, structure).
2. The extracted content is sent to Anthropic's API (Claude) for AI analysis.
3. The AI-generated result is temporarily cached in Upstash Redis (24 hours) for consistency.

What is not transmitted: No personal data belonging to the analyzed store's customers is sent to any processor. Only publicly accessible webpage content is processed.

AI training: Anthropic does not use data submitted via their API for model training, per their published API usage policy. You can verify this at anthropic.com/privacy.

BASIS Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR — performance of a contract

4. Processors and International Transfers

We use the following processors. All US-based processors are subject to Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as issued by the European Commission, and we maintain or are in the process of establishing Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with each.

Data transfers to the United States are carried out on the basis of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) pursuant to Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR, as applicable. No adequacy decision currently covers the USA in full; the SCCs provide appropriate safeguards for these transfers.

5. Cookies and Local Storage

We use only technically necessary cookies. No advertising or analytics cookies are set by us.

Stripe cookies — Set during the checkout flow for payment security and fraud prevention. These are technically necessary for payment processing. Stripe's cookie policy applies: stripe.com/privacy.

localStorage — We use your browser's localStorage to remember your subscriber email between sessions, so you do not have to re-enter it. This is not a cookie and is stored only on your device. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interest in service usability.

No tracking pixels, analytics scripts, or advertising tools are deployed on this site.
