Privacy Policy

What NumProof collects, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and the rights you have over it. We verify numbers — we do not sell your data.

Template — pending legal review. This is an early-startup template provided for transparency. It is not final legal text and may change before formal review is complete.

Hashed identifiers

Identifiers used as internal lookup keys — including API keys — are stored as sha256 hashes, not in plaintext. We use the hash to authenticate and meter requests; we cannot recover the original value from the hash.

Retention

How long we keep it

DataRetention window
Account email & key recordsFor the life of the account, then up to 12 months after closure.
Credit ledger & wallet bindingsUp to 7 years where required for financial recordkeeping.
IP & request logsUp to 90 days for security, then deleted or aggregated.
Aggregate KPI countersRetained indefinitely in non-identifying form.

Retention windows are targets and may be shortened or extended to meet legal obligations.
