What the server keeps
| Data | Kept | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Accounts, names, emails | None collected | None |
| Your queries | Not logged. Public upstream responses are cached in Netlify Blobs under a SHA-256 hash of the upstream request. | Treated as expired after 30 to 60 minutes and deleted on the next read |
| IP address | Counted by Netlify's edge rate limiter (per IP, 60 requests per minute) and, as a salted hash, in function memory. This server does not store or log the raw IP. | Counters reset every 60 seconds |
| Logs | Tool name, success or failure, and duration. No query text, no IPs. | Netlify function log retention |
Upstream terms
Queries are forwarded to public federal APIs, which have their own terms and privacy policies.
