Billing Information

We use Stripe to process payments. We do not store your full payment card details on our servers. Stripe collects and processes your payment information in accordance with their privacy policy. We do store billing address information and subscription status to manage your account.

Project and Translation Data

You may upload or input source code snippets, translation keys, translation values, namespace configurations, and other localization-related data into our platform. This content is stored securely and used solely to provide our Services to you and your authorized team members.

Usage and Log Data

We automatically collect certain technical information when you use our Services, including your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, referral URLs, and pages visited.

3. AI and Automated Processing

i18.dev uses artificial intelligence to power features such as string extraction from source code and automated translation. When you use these features, your inputs may be sent to our secure internal processing infrastructure and, where applicable, to third-party AI providers under strict confidentiality terms. We do not use your project data to train public AI models without your explicit consent.

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data, including encryption in transit and at rest, row-level security policies, access controls, and regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
