Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 19, 2026
1. Overview
PeopleDB operates as a contact information aggregation service. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information in connection with the Service, including both information about our users (API customers) and the professional contact data the Service provides access to.
2. Information We Collect About Users
When you create an account or use the Service, we collect:
- Email address and account credentials
- API usage logs including queries made, timestamps, and response metadata
- Payment information (processed by our payment provider; we do not store card details)
3. Contact Data in the Service
The Service aggregates publicly available professional contact information from third-party data providers and public sources.
If you are an individual whose information appears in our database and you wish to have it removed, please contact us. We will process opt-out requests in accordance with applicable law.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use account information to:
- Provide, operate, and improve the Service
- Enforce our Terms of Service and usage limits
- Send transactional communications (account notices, API alerts)
- Respond to support requests
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal account information. We may share information with:
- Service providers who help us operate the Service (hosting, payments, analytics)
- Law enforcement or regulators when required by law
- Successors in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
6. Data Retention
We retain account data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter for legal and business purposes. API query logs are retained for a limited period for debugging and abuse prevention.
7. Security
We use industry-standard security practices to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest. No system is perfectly secure; please use a strong, unique password and keep your API credentials confidential.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, contact us. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will notify users of material changes via email or a notice in the Service. Continued use after notice constitutes acceptance.
