Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 13, 2026
1. Service Description
APIbase.pro ("Service") is an API hub for AI agents. The Service provides programmatic access to third-party APIs via MCP (Model Context Protocol) and REST endpoints with x402 micropayments.
2. Data We Collect
- Agent credentials: API keys (stored as SHA-256 hashes, never in plaintext), agent identifiers.
- Request logs: Request IDs, tool IDs, timestamps, response status codes. Used for billing, debugging, and abuse prevention.
- Payment data: USDC wallet addresses, transaction hashes, escrow records. Stored in an append-only ledger for financial compliance.
- Usage metrics: Aggregated, anonymized request counts and latency data for system monitoring.
3. Data We Do NOT Collect
- Personal names, email addresses, or phone numbers (agent-first platform, no human accounts).
- Full request/response payloads from provider API calls.
- IP addresses in application logs (only in Nginx access logs, retained 15 days).
- Cookies, browser fingerprints, or tracking pixels.
4. How We Use Data
- Authenticate and authorize API requests.
- Process x402 micropayments and maintain the financial ledger.
- Enforce rate limits and prevent abuse.
- Monitor system health and performance.
5. Data Sharing
We forward request parameters to third-party API providers (e.g., Foursquare, Amadeus) solely to fulfill tool invocations. We do not sell, rent, or share data with advertisers or data brokers.
6. Data Retention
- Financial ledger: retained indefinitely (append-only, compliance requirement).
- Request logs: 15 days.
- Redis cache: ephemeral, TTL-based (5 seconds to 5 minutes depending on tool).
7. Security
API keys are hashed with SHA-256 before storage. All connections use TLS 1.2+. Containers run as non-root with read-only filesystems and dropped capabilities. PostgreSQL is the sole source of truth for financial data.
8. Third-Party Services
The Service integrates with third-party API providers. Each provider has its own privacy policy. By using a tool powered by a third-party provider, the agent's request parameters are forwarded to that provider.
9. Changes
We may update this policy. Changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above.
