Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1/28/26

This Privacy Policy describes how [Your Company Name] ("we", "us", or "SleeperSERP") collects, uses, stores, and discloses information when you use the SleeperSERP application (the "App") that allows you to input DataForSEO API credentials to retrieve SEO metrics.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information You Provide

DataForSEO API credentials (login and API password) that you enter into the App so we can access DataForSEO on your behalf.
Account registration information (email address, display name).
Preferences and settings you configure in the App.

1.2 Automatically Collected Data

Usage and diagnostic data (e.g., API usage counts, error logs, timestamps) to operate and improve the App.
Device and browser information required for security and debugging.

2. How We Use Your Data

To authenticate to DataForSEO and request SEO metrics on your behalf.
To provide, maintain, and improve App features and performance.
To communicate with you about account and support matters.
To comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.

3. How We Store and Protect API Credentials

Because the App needs your DataForSEO credentials to retrieve metrics, we take steps to protect them:

Transmission: All communication between the App and our servers and between our servers and third-party APIs (including DataForSEO) is protected by TLS/HTTPS.
Storage: API credentials are stored encrypted at rest using industry-standard encryption. Access to stored credentials is strictly limited to authorized systems and personnel necessary to provide the service.
Use: When making requests to DataForSEO, we send credentials in the HTTP Authorization header (HTTP Basic Auth) as required by DataForSEO and we do not send credentials in URL parameters. (Refer: DataForSEO Authentication docs: https://docs.dataforseo.com/v3/auth)

Note: If you prefer not to have credentials stored on our servers, contact us to discuss alternatives (for example, a session-only or token-based approach) — we will explain options where available.

4. Third-Party Services

We use DataForSEO as a third-party data provider. When you provide DataForSEO credentials and request metrics, we act on your behalf to call DataForSEO APIs. You should review DataForSEO’s own security and privacy documentation. DataForSEO documents the required authentication method (HTTP Basic Auth) and recommends not sending credentials in URL parameters: https://docs.dataforseo.com/v3/auth.

5. Retention

We retain your account data and encrypted API credentials for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the App. You can request deletion of your account and credentials at any time; after receiving the request we will securely delete or anonymize your data in accordance with applicable law and this policy.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (for example, GDPR in the EU or CCPA in California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal data. To exercise these rights, contact us at [contact@sleeperserp.com]. We will respond to requests in accordance with applicable law.

7. Security Practices & Industry Standards

The App follows reasonable technical and organizational measures to secure data. We and our providers use industry-standard protocols (TLS) and industry best practices. For reference, DataForSEO also documents their security approaches (TLS, OAuth for dashboard login, ISO/IEC 27001 certification, rate limits, etc.): https://dataforseo.com/blog/seo-api-reliability-and-uptime

8. Sharing & Disclosure

We will not sell your personal data. We may share data with:

Service providers who perform services on our behalf (e.g., hosting, analytics) under confidentiality agreements.
When required by law, or to respond to lawful requests by public authorities.
To protect our rights, property, or safety or that of our users.

9. Analytics & Cookies

We may use analytics services to understand usage patterns. These services collect aggregated/anonymous usage data. If you require further detail about cookies or tracking, contact us and we can provide the current list of trackers and options for disabling them.

10. Children

Our App is not intended for children under 16 (or a different age if required by local law). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or within the App prior to the change taking effect.
