1. Information We Collect

FastBusiness API may collect account information when users register for an account or use the platform.

This may include names, email addresses, usernames, account creation dates, login or session information, and account settings.

We use this information to create and manage user accounts, provide dashboard access, secure the platform, and communicate with users where necessary.

2. Subscription and Billing Data

FastBusiness API uses Stripe to manage paid subscriptions, billing, invoices, and payment-related services.

We may store subscription-related information such as subscription plan, billing interval, billing status, Stripe customer ID, Stripe subscription ID, invoice references, billing period dates, and cancellation status.

FastBusiness API does not store full payment card details. Payment details are processed and managed securely by Stripe.

3. API Keys and Usage Logs

FastBusiness API stores API key records and usage logs to provide API access, manage subscription limits, monitor token usage, apply rate limits, and protect the platform from misuse.

Usage logs may include the user who made the request, the endpoint used, the time of the request, the action performed, token or usage units consumed, and API key-related activity.

These logs help us calculate usage, support billing limits, troubleshoot issues, improve reliability, and prevent abuse.

4. Business Search and Generation Requests

When users search for, look up, generate, or refresh business profiles, FastBusiness API may process the information submitted in those requests.

This may include business names, website URLs, country or location details, search terms, profile generation requests, refresh requests, related source links, and publicly available business information.

This information is used to provide business search results, generate business profiles, improve response times, and avoid unnecessary duplicate processing.

5. Third-Party Services

FastBusiness API may use third-party services to operate, host, secure, bill, and improve the platform.

These services may include Stripe for payments and subscriptions, OpenAI and Anthropic for AI-assisted business profile generation, Tavily for search and research support, Render, Railway, or other hosting providers for infrastructure, and email service providers for account or support emails.

These third-party providers may process limited data only as necessary to provide their services.

6. Cookies and Session Data

FastBusiness API may use cookies and session data to support user login, dashboard access, authentication, security, and general site functionality.

Cookies and session data may be used to keep users logged in, protect against unauthorised access, remember session activity, support secure dashboard functionality, and improve platform reliability.

Users may be able to disable cookies in their browser settings, but some parts of the platform may not work correctly without them.

7. How We Use Information

We may use collected information to create and manage user accounts, provide API access, manage subscriptions and billing, track API usage, apply rate limits, generate and return business profiles, improve platform performance, prevent abuse, respond to support requests, and maintain legal, billing, or security records.

8. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the platform, manage accounts, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, and maintain accurate billing or security records.

Some information may be retained for longer where required for billing records, fraud prevention, security investigations, legal compliance, platform abuse prevention, backup integrity, or system integrity.

9. Data Deletion Requests

Users may request deletion of their account data by contacting us through our Contact Us page or by emailing us at [Insert privacy/support email].

When a deletion request is received, we will take reasonable steps to delete or anonymise account-related information, subject to any legal, billing, security, or record-keeping requirements.

Deleting account data may affect access to the platform, API keys, subscriptions, usage history, and stored account settings.

10. Data Security

FastBusiness API takes reasonable steps to protect user data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure.

However, no online platform, API, hosting provider, or data transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users are responsible for keeping their login details and API keys secure.

11. AI and Generated Results

Some features of FastBusiness API use artificial intelligence to assist with business profile generation.

AI-generated outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or misleading. Users should verify important business information before relying on it for legal, financial, compliance, investment, hiring, or other important business decisions.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our services, third-party providers, data practices, or legal requirements change.

The latest version will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
