🔒 Privacy & Data Handling

This Skill transmits your queries (symptoms, constitution types, disease names, ingredient keywords) over HTTPS to api.tcmplate.com for cloud processing. Review this table before use.

Item	Detail
Transport	HTTPS encrypted (TLS 1.2+)
Data sent	Only symptom descriptions, constitution types, disease terms, and ingredient names. A field whitelist at the code level automatically filters out accidentally included personal information (names, ID numbers, addresses, phone numbers, etc.) — these are stripped client-side and never reach the server
Data storage	Query content (symptoms, keywords) is processed in-memory and not persisted to disk. No query database exists
Server logs	IP address and timestamp retained in access logs for 14 days (rate limiting + abuse prevention). Query content is never written to logs
Data use	Solely for generating dietary therapy suggestions in the current request. Not used for model training, analytics, profiling, or any secondary purpose
Third-party sharing	None. Query data is never shared, sold, or disclosed to any third party
Data deletion	Since query content is not persisted, there is no stored data to delete. Access log entries (IP + timestamp only) auto-expire after 14 days
Payments	Paid subscriptions are handled independently by PayPal. The API never receives or stores payment card information
Consent	By using this Skill, you confirm you have read this table and consent to your queries being transmitted via HTTPS to api.tcmplate.com for real-time processing. Do not include names, ID numbers, addresses, or phone numbers in your queries
