Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how ScanForge collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you access the website, create an account, run scans, enable monitoring, receive alerts, or purchase a paid plan.

By using the service, you acknowledge that ScanForge processes technical and account-related information as described on this page.

We may collect account information such as your email address, authentication session data, and profile or subscription identifiers needed to operate the service.

We also collect submitted scan targets, scan outputs, issue summaries, monitoring settings, project history, alert settings, and usage metadata reasonably required to deliver reports and recurring monitoring.

If you use a paid plan, billing-related identifiers such as Stripe customer, subscription, and price references may be stored. ScanForge does not store full payment card details.

We use the information we collect to authenticate users, generate reports, operate monitoring, send alert emails, maintain project history, troubleshoot issues, enforce plan limits, and improve product reliability.

We may also use service data to prevent abuse, investigate suspicious activity, enforce these Terms, comply with legal obligations, and protect the service, its operator, and other users.

ScanForge analyzes publicly reachable website responses. Submitted URLs and generated outputs are not treated as confidential by default.

Anonymous scans may remain accessible to anyone who has the scan URL or scan identifier. If you want account-linked project ownership, recurring monitoring, and private dashboard access, you should use an authenticated account.

If you enable monitoring, ScanForge stores monitoring settings, alert preferences, change summaries, and project-level history needed to compare scans over time.

Alert delivery events may be logged for operational, security, and troubleshooting purposes.

ScanForge may rely on third-party providers such as hosting platforms, analytics or logging infrastructure, email delivery services, and Stripe for subscription billing. These providers may process data as needed to deliver their portion of the service.

Your use of billing and email-related features may therefore involve disclosure of limited information to those providers when necessary to operate the product.

ScanForge uses session-related cookies and similar storage mechanisms needed to keep users signed in, preserve account state, and support secure product functionality. Additional operational cookies or local storage may be used where necessary to run the service.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the service, maintain project history, support monitoring and billing workflows, investigate abuse, enforce legal rights, or comply with legal obligations.

We may delete, anonymize, or stop retaining information at our discretion, subject to operational needs, backup cycles, and legal requirements.

ScanForge uses reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect stored data and account sessions. However, no service can guarantee absolute security, uninterrupted availability, or immunity from unauthorized access.

You may be able to update account details, cancel monitoring features, or end a subscription through the product interface when those controls are available.

Where required by applicable law, you may also have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of certain personal data, subject to identity verification, operational limitations, and legal exceptions.

ScanForge is not intended for children, and the service should not be used by anyone who is not legally able to enter into binding terms under applicable law.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The version published on this page will apply from its stated effective date unless a later date is specified.
