Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

1. Core Privacy Commitment (Zero Prompt Retention)

We respect your data privacy. IK-Firewall DOES NOT store, inspect, or process the text content of your prompts or AI completion outputs on our servers. Prompt optimization and compression execute locally within your client environment via ik-adapter-base.

2. Telemetry Data Collected

Our servers collect only essential numerical metadata required for billing and analytics: token counts (tokens in, tokens out, tokens saved), model names, instance identifiers, timestamps, and account email for licensing.

3. Cryptographic Security & Signatures

All telemetry batches sent between ik-adapter-base and IK-Firewall are cryptographically signed using HMAC-SHA256 signatures to prevent tampering and ensure data integrity.

4. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your telemetry data to third parties. Payments are processed securely via our Merchant of Record, Polar.sh.

5. Contact & Data Rights

You have the right to request deletion of your account metadata at any time by contacting support@ik-firewall.com.
