  • Device data: device type, operating system, hardware model, and system configuration information

  • Error and performance data: when our Services encounter an error, we may collect diagnostic information via Sentry to debug and resolve the issue
  • Cookies and similar technologies: see Section 6

2. How Do We Process Your Information?

3. What Legal Bases Do We Rely On to Process Your Information?

In short: We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason under applicable law.

If you are located in the EU or UK

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on. We may rely on the following:

  • Consent. We process your information if you have given us permission for a specific purpose. You can withdraw consent at any time
  • Performance of a contract. We process your information when necessary to fulfil our subscription or API agreement with you
  • Legitimate interests. We may process your information when reasonably necessary to operate, secure, and improve our Services, for example fraud prevention, error logging, and product analytics, provided your fundamental rights and freedoms are not overridden
  • Legal obligations. We may process your information where necessary to comply with our legal obligations, such as tax law or responding to lawful requests from authorities

If you are located in Singapore

We process your personal data in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA). We will only collect, use, and disclose your personal data for purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances, and we will obtain consent (or rely on a lawful exception) before doing so.

If you are located in Canada

We process your information where you have given us express or implied consent, or where applicable law otherwise permits.

  • Legal obligations. Where required by law, court order, or a valid governmental request

5. What Is Our Stance on Third-Party Websites?

In short: We are not responsible for the safety of information you share with third parties.

The Services may contain links to third-party websites, services, or applications that are not affiliated with us. We do not endorse or guarantee the practices of any third parties and are not responsible for any data they collect. You should review their privacy policies directly.


6. Do We Use Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies?

In short: We may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Services and analyse usage.

We use cookies and similar technologies (such as web beacons and pixels) to:

  • Maintain the security of the Services and your account
  • Keep you signed in
  • Remember preferences
  • Analyse how the Services are used (via Google Analytics)

We are in the process of deploying a cookie consent banner that will allow EU, UK, and other applicable users to accept or reject non-essential cookies before they are set. Until that banner is live, EU/UK visitors should assume non-essential cookies may be set on page load and can opt out via browser controls.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. To opt out of Google Analytics specifically, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.


7. How Do We Handle Google Sign-In?

In short: If you sign in with Google, we receive a limited profile from Google and use it to create or access your account.

If you choose to register or sign in using your Google account, Google will share with us your name, email address, profile picture, and Google account ID. We use this information solely to create and authenticate your MetricsMonster account.

We do not request access to any other Google services (such as Gmail, Drive, Calendar, or Contacts) and we do not store your Google credentials. You can revoke our access at any time from your Google account security settings at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions.


8. How Do We Handle API Usage?

In short: When you use our data API, we log technical details of each request for billing, rate limiting, and security.

If you use the MetricsMonster API, we log:

  • The API key used
  • The endpoint accessed
  • Query parameters submitted
  • Response status code
  • Request timestamp
  • Originating IP address
  • User-agent string

We use this data to:

  • Enforce rate limits and plan quotas
  • Calculate billing for usage-based plans
  • Detect and prevent abuse, scraping, or unauthorised redistribution
  • Debug issues you report to us
  • Improve the API

API logs are retained for as long as you have an active account, plus a reasonable period afterwards for billing reconciliation and security investigations. Aggregated, non-identifiable usage statistics may be retained indefinitely.

API keys are sensitive credentials. You are responsible for keeping your API keys secure and not sharing them. If you believe a key has been compromised, you can rotate it from your account dashboard.


9. Is Your Information Transferred Internationally?

In short: Yes. Our infrastructure is hosted in the United States, and our vendors operate in multiple jurisdictions.

We are based in Singapore, our primary infrastructure runs on Google Cloud Platform in the United States, and our vendors (Stripe, Cloudflare, Sentry, Google, Kit, MailerLite) operate from various jurisdictions including the United States and Europe.

If you access the Services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than your own.

For transfers from the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland to jurisdictions without an adequacy decision, we rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum where applicable) executed with our processors. Copies of these safeguards are available on request.

For transfers from Singapore, we take reasonable steps to ensure that recipients provide a standard of protection comparable to the PDPA.


10. How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

In short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to provide the Services and meet our legal obligations.

We retain personal information for as long as you have an active account. After you close your account, we will delete or anonymise your information unless we are required to retain it for:

  • Tax, accounting, or other legal obligations (typically up to 7 years)
  • Resolving disputes
  • Enforcing our agreements
  • Fraud prevention and security investigations

Backup copies may persist for a limited additional period before being overwritten.


11. How Do We Keep Your Information Safe?

In short: We use technical and organisational measures to protect your information, but no system is 100% secure.

We implement reasonable security measures including:

  • Encryption in transit (TLS) for all communication with the Services
  • Encryption at rest for our databases
  • Salted password hashing
  • Restricted access to production systems
  • Regular dependency and security updates
  • DDoS protection and edge security via Cloudflare
  • Error monitoring via Sentry to detect anomalies

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You access the Services at your own risk and are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential.


12. Do We Collect Information From Minors?

In short: We do not knowingly collect data from children under 18.

The Services are not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a minor, we will deactivate the account and delete the data. If you believe we may have collected such data, please contact us at hello@metricsmonster.com.


13. What Are Your Privacy Rights?

In short: Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal information.

In jurisdictions including the EEA, UK, Switzerland, Singapore, and Canada, you may have the following rights:

  • Right to access your personal data
  • Right to correction of inaccurate data
  • Right to deletion (“right to be forgotten”)
  • Right to restriction of processing

If you are in the EEA or UK and believe we are processing your data unlawfully, you have the right to complain to your local data protection authority. In Singapore, you may complain to the Personal Data Protection Commission at https://www.pdpc.gov.sg.

Withdrawing consent. If we are relying on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time by emailing us. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing before your withdrawal.

Opting out of marketing. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send. We may still send you service-related messages necessary for the operation of your account.


14. Controls for Do-Not-Track Features

Most web browsers include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature. No uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has been finalised. We do not currently respond to DNT browser signals. If a standard is adopted in the future, we will inform you in a revised version of this notice.


15. Do United States Residents Have Specific Privacy Rights?

In short: If you are a resident of certain US states, you may have additional rights under state privacy laws.

Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Montana, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, or Virginia (and other states with privacy laws as they come into effect) may have specific rights, including:

  • The right to know what personal information we hold

  • The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (we do not sell personal information)
  • The right to opt out of targeted advertising
  • The right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights

To exercise these rights, email us at hello@metricsmonster.com. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
