2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • Provide and maintain the Service, including delivering your personalized cybersecurity intelligence feed
  • Process your subscription and manage your account
  • Deliver push notifications based on your configured alert preferences and CVSS severity thresholds
  • Personalize your experience by learning which topics, vendors, and vulnerability types are most relevant to you

  • Respond to support requests and communicate important Service updates
  • Detect and prevent abuse, including unauthorized scraping or redistribution of content
  • Comply with legal obligations, including responding to lawful requests from public authorities

3. How We Use Artificial Intelligence

PocketIntel uses artificial intelligence (Cloudflare Workers AI and OpenAI GPT-4o-mini, accessed via Cloudflare AI Gateway) to:

  • Summarize publicly available cybersecurity articles, advisories, and vulnerability disclosures
  • Extract indicators of compromise (IOCs) from public security sources
  • Tag and categorize content by vendor, product, vulnerability type, and severity
  • Prioritize your feed based on your preferences

Important disclosures about our AI use:

  • All AI-generated summaries are clearly labeled as AI-generated within the app.
  • AI summaries are derivative works based on publicly available sources. PocketIntel always links to the original source so you can verify information.
  • PocketIntel never reproduces full article text. Summaries are concise, original interpretations generated by AI.
  • We do not use your personal data to train AI models. Your reading behavior, preferences, and account information are not used as training data for any machine learning system. AI processing is applied only to publicly available source content, not to user data.

4. Data Storage and Security

4.1 Where Your Data Is Stored

Your data is stored on Cloudflare infrastructure located in the United States, using Cloudflare D1 (database) and Cloudflare Workers (application logic). Push notification tokens are transmitted to Apple Push Notification service (APNs) or Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) as needed to deliver your alerts.

4.2 How We Protect Your Data

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information, including:

  • Encryption in transit (TLS/HTTPS) for all data transmitted between your device and our servers
  • Encryption at rest for stored data on Cloudflare infrastructure
  • Authentication via secure third-party identity providers (Apple Sign-In, Google Sign-In)
  • Access controls limiting employee and system access to personal data on a need-to-know basis
  • Regular security reviews of our infrastructure and application code

No method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
