Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

When you create an account or use Sequel, we collect information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, and workspace details. We also collect usage data — queries you run, databases you connect, and how you interact with the product — to improve our service.

We do not store the contents of your database beyond what is necessary to answer a specific query. Query results are held in memory for the duration of your session and are not persisted to our servers.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, and improve Sequel, to process transactions, to send you service-related communications, and to respond to your questions and support requests.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We may share anonymised, aggregate usage statistics publicly or with partners to demonstrate product value.

3. Database credentials

Connection credentials you provide are encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS 1.2 or higher. Credentials are used solely to establish connections on your behalf and are never shared with third parties or used to access your data outside of your explicit requests.

4. Cookies and tracking

We use essential cookies to keep you signed in and to maintain your session. We may also use analytics cookies to understand how users navigate the product. You can disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings, though this may affect some functionality.

5. Data retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or regulatory reasons.

6. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you, to object to or restrict certain processing, or to request a machine-readable copy of your data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at musthaq@sequel.sh.

7. Third-party services

Sequel uses a small number of trusted third-party services to operate — including cloud infrastructure, payment processing, and email delivery. Each provider is bound by their own privacy policy and by data processing agreements with us.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "last updated" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, notify you by email or through an in-product notice.

9. Contact

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, please email us at musthaq@sequel.sh.
