Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Ananse Labs ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share information when you use our website (ananselabs.org), the Ananse Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, or any associated tool integrations.

2. Information We Collect

We only collect information that is strictly necessary to provide and secure our services, particularly in relation to external tool executions:

• Account & Profile Information: If you authenticate using Auth0, we receive standard identity claims such as your unique user identifier (subject), email address, and assigned permissions.
• Tool Execution and Audit Logs: To prevent fraud, ensure service reliability, and support auditing of sensitive transactions (e.g. mobile money disbursements, wallet balance lookups), we record details of tool calls, including timestamps, the initiating user identifier, and tool success or failure status.
• Device & Connection Data: We may capture standard network information, such as IP addresses, to protect our services against abuse, DNS rebinding, and unauthorized connection attempts.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

• To facilitate secure authentication and enforce granular, per-user tool access.
• To process and route API actions to our integrated partners (such as the BulkClix platform).
• To maintain secure, auditable logs of high-consequence operations (e.g., money disbursements).
• To detect, prevent, and address technical or security issues, including fraud prevention and compliance checks.

4. External Purchases & Services

Please note that our applications and GPT integrations do not directly facilitate the purchase of digital goods, services, or subscriptions within the ChatGPT interface. Where user actions involve purchases, payments, or transaction confirmations, users are securely directed out of ChatGPT to our external platform pages to complete the action.

All payment and transactional activity is conducted in full compliance with applicable laws, including consumer protection, anti-money laundering (AML), and international sanctions.

5. Data Security

We secure your data using industry-standard measures. Communication between our servers, authentication systems, and client interfaces is fully encrypted in transit. We implement strict transport security, and secrets or access tokens are never logged or exposed.

6. Your Rights & Contacts

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, or would like to request the deletion or correction of your profile and audit logs, please contact us at support@ananselabs.org.
