Privacy Policy

How Koolbase collects, uses, and protects your information.

Last Updated: October 17, 2026

Summary: We collect only what we need to provide the Services, we do not sell your data, and you remain in control of your information at all times.

1. Introduction

Koolbase, Inc. (“Koolbase,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our platform, including our web dashboard, the Designer, our Flutter, React Native and JavaScript SDKs, the CLI, our APIs, and associated services (collectively, the “Services”).

This policy applies to two categories of people: (1) Customers — developers and organizations who create a Koolbase account and build applications using our platform; and (2) App Users — end-users of our Customers' mobile and web applications whose data may be stored on Koolbase infrastructure through the Koolbase SDK.

By using the Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not access or use the Services.

2. Information We Collect

a. Information You Provide (Customers)

When you register for a Koolbase account or use the Services, we collect:

email_addressUsed for account creation, authentication, and communications
full_nameUsed for account personalization and support
organization_nameUsed to identify your team and manage multi-user access
billing_infoCollected when upgrading to a paid plan (processed by our payment provider)
api_keysGenerated by us and used to authenticate your SDK and API requests

b. App User Data (via SDK)

When you integrate a Koolbase SDK into your mobile or web application, data belonging to your App Users may be stored on Koolbase infrastructure. This includes authentication records (email, hashed passwords, session tokens), database records you create using the Koolbase database service, and files uploaded using the Koolbase storage service. Koolbase processes this data solely on your behalf as a data processor. You, the Customer, are the data controller responsible for this data.

c. Automatically Collected Data

When you use the Services, we automatically collect:

  • Usage Data: Pages visited, features used, API calls made, and dashboard interactions
  • Device & Technical Data: ip_address, browser_type, operating system, and unique_device_identifiers
  • Log Data: Server logs including request timestamps, response times, and error reports
  • SDK Analytics: Anonymized SDK initialization counts, feature flag evaluation counts, and API response times — used to monitor platform health
  • Campaign Attribution: If you arrive on koolbase.com from a campaign link and allow it, we keep the campaign tags on the link (such as utm_source and utm_campaign), any ad click ID (gclid from Google, fbclid from Meta), a referral code, the page you landed on, and when in your browser's local storage for 30 days, and attach them to your sign-up so we know which campaigns bring people to Koolbase.

d. AI Features

When you use an AI feature, such as the Designer or the dashboard assistant, the prompts you write and the project context needed to answer them (for example collection names, schemas, and flag or config state) are sent to our AI model providers to generate a response. They process it under their API terms. Koolbase does not use your prompts or project data to train AI models. When you connect your own coding agent to Koolbase over MCP, the data your agent reads goes to that agent's provider under your own agreement with them. The providers we use are listed on our Subprocessors page.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To provide, operate, and maintain the Services, including the dashboard, APIs, and SDK infrastructure
  • To authenticate users, manage sessions, and enforce access control across your projects and environments
  • To process payments and manage billing for paid plan subscriptions
  • To send transactional emails including account verification, password resets, and billing notifications
  • To monitor platform health, detect abuse, and prevent fraudulent or unauthorized access
  • To improve and develop the Services using aggregated, anonymized usage data
  • To respond to support requests, questions, and feedback
  • To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service

Important: We do not sell your personal data or your App Users' data to any third party. We do not use Customer Data for advertising purposes.

4. Data Sharing

We may share your information in limited circumstances:

Service Providers

We share data with trusted third-party providers that help us operate the Services, including cloud infrastructure providers, AI model providers, payment processors, and email delivery services. The current list is on our Subprocessors page. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and may only use it to perform services on our behalf.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your information if required by law, subpoena, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Koolbase, our customers, or the public.

Business Transfers

If Koolbase is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email or dashboard notice before your data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

With Your Consent

We may share your information with third parties when you have given us explicit consent to do so.

5. Cookies & Tracking

We use only the cookies the Services need to work, and no analytics, advertising or tracking cookies.

Essential CookiesRequired

In the dashboard (app.koolbase.com), cookies keep you signed in and protect sign-in against forged requests. You can’t opt out of these while using the dashboard, because sign-in depends on them.

Our website (koolbase.com) and documentation (docs.koolbase.com) don't set cookies; the website does use local storage for campaign attribution, with your permission, as described in section 2. If you subscribe to a paid plan, payment takes place on Stripe's pages, where Stripe's own cookie policy applies. You can delete cookies in your browser at any time; deleting the dashboard's cookies signs you out. For the full list, see our Cookie Policy.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to provide the Services and fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable law.

  • Account Data: Retained for the duration of your account. Upon account deletion, we delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
  • Customer Data (App User Data): Deleted within 30 days of account termination. You may export your data at any time via the dashboard before termination.
  • Log Data: Server and access logs are retained for up to 90 days for security and debugging purposes.
  • Billing Records: Retained for up to 7 years as required for tax and financial compliance purposes.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data. We respect and honor these rights:

Access & Portability

Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you in a portable format.

Rectification

Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.

Erasure

Request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal retention requirements.

Restriction

Request that we limit how we process your data in certain circumstances.

Objection

Object to our processing of your data for legitimate interests or direct marketing.

Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on consent, withdraw it at any time without affecting prior processing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We acknowledge requests within 5 business days and complete them within 30 days.

Note for App Users: If you are an end-user of an app built on Koolbase, your data rights should be exercised with the developer of that application, who is the data controller for your data.

8. Security

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure. Our security practices include:

TLS encryption for all data in transit between the SDK, APIs, and our servers
AES-256 encryption for sensitive data at rest, including secrets and API keys
bcrypt hashing for all stored passwords — plaintext passwords are never stored
JWT-based session management with short-lived access tokens
Isolated project environments — data from one project cannot access another
Regular security reviews and dependency audits

Important: No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and API keys.

9. International Transfers

Koolbase operates globally and your information may be processed and stored in countries other than your own. These countries may have different data protection laws than your jurisdiction.

When we transfer personal data across borders, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your data receives the same level of protection it would in your home jurisdiction. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure that any international transfer of your data is subject to appropriate legal mechanisms.

10. Children's Privacy

The Koolbase platform is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at [email protected] and we will delete such information promptly.

If you are a Customer building applications that may be used by children, you are responsible for complying with all applicable laws regarding children's data, including COPPA and applicable local legislation.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email (to the address associated with your account) or by posting a prominent notice in the dashboard at least 30 days before the changes take effect.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
