Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 12, 2026 · Effective: April 12, 2026

Summary: We collect only what we need to run the service. We do not sell your data. Infrastructure data stays yours. We use Stripe for payments, AWS for hosting, OpenAI for AI features (anonymised only), and Cloudflare for security. EU/UK customers can request a DPA.

1. Who We Are

FixMyCloud ("we," "us," or "our") is a company incorporated in the United Arab Emirates with operational presence in India. We operate the FixMyCloud platform at fixmycloud.ai and app.fixmycloud.ai (the "Services").

For GDPR purposes, FixMyCloud acts as data controller for account-related personal data and as data processor for Customer infrastructure data. For questions about this Policy, contact: privacy@fixmycloud.ai

2. Data We Collect

2.1 Account and Contact Data

When you register: name, email address, company name, job title, and password (hashed and salted — never stored in plaintext). Used to create and manage your Account, communicate with you, and enforce our Terms.

2.2 Infrastructure and Scan Data

When you connect infrastructure, the Services perform read-only API calls to access configuration metadata — for example, IAM policy definitions, security group rules, and storage bucket settings. We do not access your application data, database contents, or end-user records. This data is processed solely to generate security findings and compliance reports for you.

2.3 Credentials and Secrets

Connection credentials (API keys, SSH keys, service account JSON) are encrypted at rest using AES-256 before storage and are never logged or transmitted in plaintext. We use envelope encryption per-connection. Credentials are used only to perform Scans and are never shared with third parties.

2.4 Usage and Log Data

We automatically collect: IP addresses, browser type and version, pages visited, timestamps, and error logs. Used for security monitoring, troubleshooting, and service improvement.

2.5 Payment Data

Payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe, Inc. We do not store full card numbers or CVV codes. Stripe provides us with a tokenised reference and limited metadata (last 4 digits, expiry, card type). Stripe's privacy policy governs their handling of your payment data.

2.6 AI Feature Data

When you use AI-powered features, anonymised scan metadata (finding types, severity counts, rule codes) may be sent to OpenAI to generate remediation guidance and rule suggestions. We do not send raw credentials, full infrastructure configurations, personal data, or identifiable resource names to OpenAI. OpenAI is contractually restricted from using this data for general model training.

2.7 Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication and preferences, and analytics cookies with your consent. See our Cookie Policy for full details.

8. International Data Transfers

FixMyCloud is incorporated in the UAE with operations in India. Customer data is hosted on AWS infrastructure which may span multiple regions. When we transfer personal data of EU, EEA, or UK residents to countries without an adequacy decision, we rely on:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission;
  • UK International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs) for UK transfers;
  • Appropriate safeguards under UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on Personal Data Protection.

Enterprise customers requiring a signed Data Processing Agreement with SCCs should contact legal@fixmycloud.ai.
