Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 31, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to CountryState API. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you as to how we look after your personal data when you visit our website and tell you about your privacy rights.

2. Data We Collect

We only collect the absolute minimum data required to provide our API services to you:

• Identity Data: Your name and email address when you register for an API key.
• Security Data: Securely hashed passwords (we never store plain-text passwords).
• Technical Data: Internet protocol (IP) address for API rate-limiting, browser type and version, and usage data regarding your API requests.

3. How We Use Your Data

We will only use your personal data for the following purposes:

• To register you as a new user and generate your unique API keys.
• To enforce rate limits (via IP address tracing) to prevent abuse of our services.
• To send you important service updates (or promotional material, if you have explicitly opted in via your dashboard).

4. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. We use standard cryptographic hashing for all passwords and transmit all API requests over secure HTTPS.

5. Third-Party Services

We use Cloudflare Turnstile to protect our registration and login endpoints from automated bots. Cloudflare may collect technical data as outlined in their privacy policy to ensure you are a human user.

6. Your Legal Rights

You have the right to request access, correction, or erasure of your personal data. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time by contacting our support team or using the account deletion tools in your dashboard.
