1. Information We Collect

When you use Aeranko, we collect information you provide directly, including your name, email address, company name, website URL, and target keywords. When you use our AI Visibility Audit tool, we collect the domain and keywords you submit for analysis. We also collect usage data such as pages visited, features used, and interaction patterns to improve our service.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to provide and improve our AI search optimization services, including running visibility audits, generating reports, tracking your AI visibility scores, and creating optimized content. We also use your email to send service-related communications, including weekly and monthly reports, visibility alerts, and account updates.

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers necessary to operate our platform, including cloud hosting (Google Cloud Platform), email delivery (Resend), payment processing (Stripe), and AI analysis (OpenAI). These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for the services they provide to us.

4. AI Analysis & Third-Party APIs

When you run an AI Visibility Audit, we send your domain name and keywords to OpenAI's API to analyze your AI search visibility. This data is processed according to OpenAI's data usage policies. We do not send personal information (such as your email) to AI analysis providers — only the domain and keywords you submit for analysis.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS/HTTPS), encrypted storage, and access controls. Our infrastructure is hosted on Google Cloud Platform with SOC 2 compliance. Payment information is handled entirely by Stripe and never touches our servers.

6. Cookies

We use essential cookies to maintain your session and preferences. We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our site. You can disable non-essential cookies in your browser settings without affecting the core functionality of our service.
