Privacy

Updated 5/7/2023

When using certain services provided by me and accessing my website, along with any other website hosted, managed, or written by me, I always ensure privacy is one of my top priorities. I am a strong advocate for data privacy, transparency, and control and I only collect the information required to make my services work. Unnecessary data collection is harmful and should have no place on the internet.

Prelude - Governing Law and Scope

Database.red is operated under the legal jurisdiction of the United States. Servers and instances are hosted in varying parts of the world which include the US and Germany. Our upstream providers have their own privacy policies which apply separately and as such you are recommended to view them as well.

I. Data Collected


Ia. Self-Hosted Public Instances

Ib. Other Services

When you access or use any service operated by Database.red, my servers automatically collect certain information to complete the query and mitigate abusive activities.

The following information is collected on all Database.red services by Apache/Nginx:

All data except account data (on services that require it) is wiped every 12-24 hours, unless retainment is required to mitigate abuse or comply with legal requests.

Ic. Cloudflare

All Database.red services use Cloudflare, a global content delivery and website proxy service to prevent against attacks such as DDoS or automated requests. By using Database.red and its services, you also agree to Cloudflare's privacy policy.

II. Data Control

Account data as described in Section I can be accessed and deleted at any time. Log into the service provided by me and follow the instructions to request your data and/or delete your account. Any other data is wiped automatically, so manual request of deletion is not necessary.

At any time you may exercise your GDPR or CCPA rights to any of my services that require me to store Personally Identifiable Data (PII).

III. Changes to Policy

By using Database.red and its services, you agree to this privacy policy. I reserve the right to modify this policy at any time. By continuing to use Database.red and its services you signify your acceptance to the revised privacy policy and terms of service regardless if you reviewed them.
