03What we use it for
- To run the service you signed up for: measuring your brands, producing reports and showing them to you and to the people you share them with. Our legal basis is our contract with you.
- To send you emails about your account and your reports. You can switch report emails off in Settings.
- To keep the service secure, prevent abuse and fix faults. Our legal basis is our legitimate interest in running a safe service.
- To meet legal duties, such as keeping records of transactions.
We do not sell your data, we do not show advertising, and we do not use your reports to promote Seroq unless you agree to it first.
04What is sent to AI engines
To measure a brand, Seroq sends the buyer questions you approved to the AI engines listed below, and sends each answer, together with the brand name, website address and competitor names, to a language model that reads it. Buyer questions are written as an anonymous buyer would ask them.
Your email address, your password and your payment details are never sent to any AI engine. Please do not put personal information about anyone into brand names or questions.

11Websites we read
The site check reads public pages of the website you enter, the same way a search engine does, and identifies itself as SeroqBot. It reads only pages that are publicly reachable, does not sign in anywhere and does not submit forms. If you run a website and do not want it checked, write to us.
12Security
Data is encrypted in transit. Each account can only reach its own brands and reports, which is enforced in the database itself. Access to the systems is limited to the people who need it. No online service can promise perfect security, so if you believe your account has been misused, tell us straight away.
13Children
Seroq is a business tool and is not meant for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
14Changes to this policy
If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will update the date at the top and tell account holders by email before the change takes effect.
