The data returned by our API (business profiles, reviews, rankings, etc.) is sourced from publicly available information and third-party data providers. We do not store the results of your API queries beyond short-term caching for performance. Your API usage logs (which endpoints you called, when, and credit costs) are retained for billing and analytics.

7. Data Retention
Account information is retained as long as your account is active. API usage logs are retained for 90 days. Credit transaction history is retained for the lifetime of your account for billing purposes. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time through the dashboard settings.
