    Documents

    DocumentHow to get it
    SOC 2 Type II reportEmail support@desearch.ai. The report is shared under NDA.
    Data Processing Agreement (DPA)Email support@desearch.ai.
    Privacy policyRead it at desearch.ai/privacy. Send data requests to privacy@desearch.ai.

    Zero data retention

    Zero data retention is available. With it enabled, Desearch doesn't store your queries or results and doesn't use them for training. Without it, the privacy policy lists API calls and queries among the usage data Desearch may collect. Contact our team to enable zero data retention for your workload.

    HIPAA

    Desearch's controls are aligned with the HIPAA Security Rule. If your workload involves protected health information (PHI), talk to our team before you send it so you can review your requirements together.

    API keys

    Every request authenticates with your API key over HTTPS:

    bash
    curl --request GET 'https://api.desearch.ai/twitter?query=Bittensor&count=20' \ --header "Authorization: $DESEARCH_API_KEY"

    Keep the key on your server or in a secret manager, and never ship it in a browser bundle. Desearch Console shows request costs and usage by API key and service. See Pricing and billing.

    Report a vulnerability

    Email support@desearch.ai and start the subject line with [Security]. Include the affected system, steps to reproduce, and the impact you observed.

    While testing, use only your own account and data, don't disrupt the service, and give us time to fix the issue before you disclose it publicly.
