This policy explains how Omics Tools LLC handles the personal data we collect from you when you use our website. You grant consent on account registration by checking the box that reads, "I consent to the privacy policy and may revoke my consent at any time."
We collect usernames, email addresses, GPG keys, passphrases, API keys, site activity and preferences, IP addresses, and server error logs.
We don't collect access logs or compile personal data for any commercial reason. Also, we explicitly deny all known browser features, including not limited: camera, microphone, sensors, wake-lock, USB, encrypted media, autoplay, etc.

All data read, written, or deleted under this policy will only be managed by SQL queries, and any data returned will only be provided as raw output (database dumps).

Email and IP addresses, and private messages between users, are encrypted and then decrypted in memory. Certain data is hashed before storage and therefore unrecoverable, including passphrases and API keys. Please don't request ciphertext.
We'll keep your data for your account's lifetime. When that time expires, we'll delete your data by written request.
We'd like to make sure you're fully aware of your data protection rights. Each user is entitled to GDPR protection regardless of their jurisdiction.
Please attach a screenshot of your profile page to prove account ownership for any transaction. It's okay to redact sensitive data like email and passkey.
If you make a request, we have one month to respond. Please contact us if you'd like to exercise any of these rights.
