Privacy Policy

Your data is not a commodity. It is a responsibility I take seriously.

My Commitment to Your Privacy

Me the Tech operates the website methe.tech (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit the Service. By using the Service, you also agree to the Terms of Service. I believe that privacy is a fundamental right, not a negotiable feature. I collect only what I need, I store only what I must, and I never sell your data to anyone. Period.

Information I Collect

I collect information that you voluntarily provide and information that is automatically collected when you use the Service.

Account Information: When you create an account, I collect your email address and a securely hashed password. Your name is optional and only collected if you choose to provide it. If you sign in with Google, I receive your name, email, and profile picture from Google's OAuth service.

Booking Information: When you schedule a consultation, I collect your email and the service you select. Your name and phone number are entirely optional. You can book a meeting without providing anything beyond an email address.

Contact Form Data: When you reach out through the contact form, I collect your name, email, and message content.

GDP Cloud Billing Information: When you start or manage a paid GDP Cloud subscription, I store the selected plan, billing interval, subscription status, provider identifiers, entitlement period, and metered usage. Full payment-card details are entered directly with the payment provider and are not stored on Me the Tech servers.

Usage Analytics: I use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-first analytics tool that does not use cookies, does not track individual users, and does not collect personal information. It only provides aggregated traffic metrics.

Technical Data: The servers automatically log standard technical information including IP addresses (anonymized), browser type, operating system, and referring URLs. This data is used exclusively for security monitoring and service optimization.

Cookies & Local Storage

I use cookies and local storage minimally and only for functional purposes. For a complete breakdown of every cookie and storage mechanism in use, see the Cookie Policy.

Authentication Cookie (auth_token): A secure, HttpOnly cookie that maintains your login session. It expires after 7 days and cannot be accessed by client-side JavaScript.

Language Preference: Stored in localStorage and a cookie to remember your language selection (English or Turkish) across visits.

Service Worker Cache: The Progressive Web App (PWA) caches static assets locally for faster loading and offline capability. No personal data is cached.

I do NOT use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or any third-party tracking cookies. I do not place ads on this site. Cloudflare Web Analytics is entirely cookie-free.

How I Use Your Information

Your information is used strictly for the purposes you provided it for.

To provide, maintain, and improve the Service

To create and manage your account

To process and manage your consultation bookings, including creating Google Calendar events and Google Meet links

To send you booking confirmations, reminders, and service-related communications via email (Brevo/Sendinblue)

To respond to your inquiries submitted through the contact form

To create, administer, reconcile, and support GDP Cloud subscriptions and entitlements

To measure GDP Cloud gateway usage, enforce plan limits, and prevent billing abuse

To detect, prevent, and address security threats and abuse

To comply with legal obligations

Third-Party Services

I integrate with a limited number of trusted third-party services, each chosen for their privacy practices and reliability.

Cloudflare: Provides the CDN, DDoS protection, DNS, and privacy-first analytics. Cloudflare processes requests to deliver the content securely.

Google OAuth: Used for optional Google Sign-In. I receive only your name, email, and profile picture. I do not access your Google contacts, calendar, or any other Google service data through your login.

Google Calendar API: Used exclusively to create consultation events on the business calendar. I use OAuth with a service-level refresh token. Your personal Google account is never accessed.

Brevo (Sendinblue): The email service provider for transactional emails (booking confirmations, password resets, email verification). Brevo processes your email address and name solely to deliver these communications.

Lemon Squeezy: Processes GDP Cloud checkout, recurring subscription payments, invoices, payment-method management, and cancellation through its hosted checkout and customer portal. It receives the billing and transaction information needed to provide those services under its own terms and privacy policy.

Cloudflare Turnstile: A privacy-preserving CAPTCHA alternative used to protect forms from automated abuse. Unlike traditional CAPTCHAs, it does not track users.

Google API Services User Data Policy

Me the Tech's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Specifically regarding Google OAuth data:

Data Accessed: When you sign in with Google, I request access to your primary email address, your name, and your profile picture. I do not request access to your Google contacts, drive, calendar events, or any other private Google data.

Data Usage: The accessed data (email, name, profile picture) is strictly used to create your account, identify you within the system, and allow you to book consultations seamlessly.

Data Sharing: I do not share, sell, or transfer your Google user data to any third parties for advertising, marketing, or any other purpose.

Data Storage & Protection: Your Google account data is stored in a secure database protected by industry-standard encryption (TLS 1.3 in transit, encrypted at rest) and strict access controls via Cloudflare's security infrastructure.

Data Retention & Deletion: Your Google user data is retained only as long as your account remains active. You may request the deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by contacting me, and I will securely purge it within 30 days.

GDP / MCP Gateway Data Flow

GDP / MCP Gateway acts as a temporary relay between ChatGPT or another AI host and your local GDP Desktop session. I did not design the gateway as a source-code hosting service, permanent log archive, or analytics database.

When you use a GDP tool, the data required to complete that call may pass through the gateway. This may include metadata about repositories open in GDP, selected file contents, diff or context output, Patch Doctor reports, patch text, and queue status information.

I do not retain GDP / MCP Gateway tool-call payloads as permanent product data. Tool-call arguments are used only to dispatch the request to the connected GDP Desktop session; immediately after dispatch, they are automatically scrubbed and deleted. Completed tool-call records are automatically deleted after the result is delivered to the AI host.

Expired OAuth codes, access tokens, abandoned calls, and old disconnected sessions are removed through automatic cleanup processes according to their lifecycle. The purpose of the gateway is not to retain data, but to relay requests through a short-lived transfer flow.

GDP Desktop runs on your local machine. Repository-changing actions such as applying patches, rollback, commit, push, reset, and clean are not performed by the gateway. Those actions happen only inside GDP Desktop after your local approval.

GDP is local-first, but the hosted gateway is not zero-knowledge while a request is in flight. If an AI host calls GDP tools, selected repository context may pass through both the AI host and the gateway. Do not connect repositories or request file context that you do not want to pass through that flow.

You must not use GDP / MCP Gateway to develop, transmit, or facilitate unlawful, harmful, abusive, or rights-infringing content or activity. You are responsible for the data you select, the instructions you provide, the patch proposals you generate, and any local actions you take in GDP Desktop. I fulfill the gateway's temporary processing and automatic deletion responsibilities, but you remain responsible for your use of the tools and the results of that use.

GDP Browser Companion

GDP Browser Companion is a Chrome extension that connects your visible conversations on ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude with Git Diff Patcher Desktop running on the same computer. It communicates with GDP Desktop through an authenticated loopback relay at 127.0.0.1 and does not require a separate privacy-policy URL.

Supported sites and single purpose: The extension operates only on chatgpt.com, gemini.google.com, claude.ai, and the authenticated GDP Desktop relay at 127.0.0.1. It does not access unrelated websites or monitor your general browsing activity.

Data processed: To perform user-requested handoffs, the extension may process visible conversation text, composer content, AI responses, supported page and conversation URLs, repository context and local tool results selected through GDP, repository and conversation bindings, and local workflow identifiers.

Authentication information: The extension stores a localhost relay access token used only to authenticate communication with GDP Desktop. It does not collect your AI-account passwords, session cookies, or other provider credentials.

Local storage and retention: Extension preferences, relay settings, repository and conversation bindings, and processed handoff identifiers may be stored locally through Chrome extension storage. They remain on your device until you clear the extension's local data or remove the extension.

AI-provider transfer: When you choose to prepare or send a prompt, conversation content and selected repository context may be submitted to the AI service you selected through its visible website. ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude process that information under their own terms and privacy policies. The extension's loopback relay traffic is not sent to Me the Tech servers. If you separately use the hosted GDP / MCP Gateway, the gateway section above applies to that flow.

Data not collected: The extension does not collect payment information, precise location, advertising identifiers, mouse movement, scroll history, keystroke logs, or browsing activity outside the supported AI websites. It does not load or execute remote JavaScript or WebAssembly.

User control: You control which conversation and repository are connected, what repository context is exposed, whether native web auto-send is enabled, and when locally stored extension data is cleared. Native web auto-send is disabled by default.

Restricted use: Browser Companion data is not sold, used for advertising, used for unrelated profiling, transferred for purposes unrelated to the extension's single purpose, or used to determine creditworthiness or for lending.

Data Security

I implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data.

All data in transit is encrypted via TLS 1.3 (HTTPS enforced via HSTS with a 1-year max-age)

Passwords are cryptographically hashed using bcrypt before storage. I never store plaintext passwords

Authentication tokens are signed with HS256 (HMAC-SHA256) and transmitted only via secure, HttpOnly cookies

The Content Security Policy (CSP) strictly limits which domains can serve scripts, styles, and other resources to the site

Session tokens are stored as SHA-256 hashes in the database, ensuring even database access cannot compromise active sessions

The infrastructure runs on Cloudflare's edge network with built-in DDoS protection and Web Application Firewall (WAF)

Data Retention

I retain your data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

Account data is retained while your account is active. You may request deletion at any time.

Booking records are retained for 2 years for business and legal compliance purposes.

Contact form submissions are retained for 1 year.

GDP Cloud subscription, entitlement, invoice-reference, and usage records are retained while needed to provide the subscription, reconcile payments, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, and meet legal or accounting obligations.

Server logs are automatically rotated and deleted after 30 days.

GDP / MCP Gateway tool-call arguments are automatically scrubbed and deleted immediately after dispatch, and completed tool-call records are automatically deleted after the result is delivered to the AI host.

Authentication sessions expire after 7 days and expired session records are periodically purged.

Your Rights

Regardless of where you are located, I respect and uphold the following rights for all users.

Right to Access: You can request a copy of all personal data I hold about you.

Right to Rectification: You can update or correct your personal information through your profile settings or by contacting me.

Right to Deletion: You can request complete deletion of your account and associated data. I will process this within 30 days.

Right to Data Portability: You can request your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

Right to Object: You can object to processing of your personal data for specific purposes.

Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to individuals under the age of 16. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If I become aware that I have collected data from a child without parental consent, I will take immediate steps to delete that information.

Changes to This Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in practices, technology, or legal requirements. When I make material changes, I will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. I encourage you to review this policy periodically.
