Privacy Policy

Version 1 · Effective October 15, 2026

Initial version of the Privacy Policy.

AI privacy addendum

Version 2026-09-26. Effective September 26, 2026. This addendum covers the PyroApex Pro assistant when a tenant business uses it.

OpenAI is our subprocessor for generating assistant answers and proposed changes. We send relevant chat context and tenant data, which may include names, business names, email addresses, phone numbers, order data, and product data. We never send dates of birth, identification numbers, or payment data to the assistant provider. Do not include these excluded categories in your messages.

OpenAI does not use our API inputs or outputs to train its models. We do not opt into training. Requests disable response storage; this does not eliminate abuse-monitoring logs. OpenAI normally retains those logs, which may contain prompts and responses, for up to 30 days, with longer retention where required by law or reasonably necessary to protect its services or others from harm. Deleting a PyroApex chat does not immediately delete OpenAI's separate logs. See OpenAI's API data controls.

Our chat retention and deletion

Each member's chats are saved and searchable until that member deletes them by default. Only the member can view their chats; tenant administrators cannot read another member's history. A tenant administrator may instead set automatic deletion after 1 year, 180 days, 90 days, or 30 days. Members may delete one chat or all their chats.

Deleted or expired chats are removed from the database within 30 days, excluding backups. Chats belonging to a member removed from the tenant are deleted after 30 days. Chat content is never sent to application logs or Sentry. Deleting chats does not delete billing usage records, which contain no chat text, or undo confirmed business changes and their audit records. These chat-specific periods take precedence over the general account-data retention periods.

Multi-Tenant Platform

PyroApex Pro operates on a platform where independent fireworks businesses ("Merchants") operate storefronts. Each Merchant is an independent data controller for their customers' information. Customer data is logically isolated between Merchants.

Third-Party Links

Our platform may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
