Last updated: February 18, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Superstellar LLC, operating as Serge, collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal data when you visit serge.ai or use our platform. It applies to all users worldwide. If anything is unclear, contact us at privacy@serge.ai.
01
Who we are
- Serge is operated by Superstellar LLC (“we”, “us”, “our”). We are the data controller for account information and usage data processed through the Serge platform.
- For all privacy inquiries, contact us at privacy@serge.ai.
02
Information we collect
- Scan data — When you scan a domain, we crawl publicly available resources (homepage, API docs, OpenAPI specs, llms.txt, structured data) and store the resulting check results, scores, and domain name.
- Email addresses — When you request a full report, we collect your work email address. This is PII.
- Technical and usage data — Anonymized page views and feature usage (via PostHog), IP addresses for rate limiting (not stored persistently), browser and device information for analytics, and error data for debugging (via Sentry, with personally identifiable information scrubbed before transmission).
03
How we use your information
- Service delivery — We use scan data to provide agent readiness scores and reports. Legal basis: performance of our contract with you (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b)).
- Communication — We send the full report to the email address you provide. We do not send marketing emails unless you separately opt in. Legal basis: performance of contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
- Security and abuse prevention — We use IP-based rate limiting and audit logging to protect the platform and your data. Legal basis: legitimate interest in platform security (Art. 6(1)(f)).
- Product improvement — We use anonymized, aggregated usage analytics to understand how people use Serge and to improve the product. Legal basis: legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)), balanced against your privacy through strict anonymization.
- Legal compliance — We may process data to comply with applicable laws, respond to lawful requests from public authorities, or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. Legal basis: legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)) or legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)).
