INTENTO API PLATFORM ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY
Use of the Platform Services is subject to this Acceptable Use Policy.
Capitalized terms have the meaning stated in the applicable agreement between Customer and Intento.
Customer agrees not to, and not to allow third parties to use the Platform Services:
· to violate, or encourage the violation of, the legal rights of others (for example, this may include allowing Customer End Users to infringe or misappropriate the intellectual property rights of others in violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act);
· to engage in, promote or encourage illegal activity;
· for any unlawful, invasive, infringing, defamatory or fraudulent purpose (for example, this may include phishing, creating a pyramid scheme or mirroring a website);

DATA PROCESSING
This document describes what Customer Data is received by Intento, how it is transmitted, processed, and stored.
1. Types of Data Transit
There are two places where Customer data cross the perimeter of Intento network (in case of the Hosted Services):
1. Data transit from Customer to Intento (sending the requests and retrieving the data processing results)
2. Data transit from Intento to Third-Party Service Providers (such as Machine Translation services)
In both places, the data is protected using industry-standard encryption.
Note: based on customer request, Intento may provide dedicated endpoints for customer requests, included in the Customer's Virtual Private Network. There also may be separate endpoints for data processing and account management APIs.
2. Types of Data Storage
There are the following types of storage where we may store the user data:
1. Short-term in-memory storage
2. Customer-Intento request logs (persistent). Contain the request metadata and used for billing purposes and calculating user statistics. May be deleted by a user request.
3. Intento-Provider request logs (persistent). Contain the request metadata and detailed request data for debug purposes (opt-in requested by the user, see the API docs https://github.com/intento/intento-api#debug-mode). May be deleted by a user request.
4. Async job storage (temporary storage of the request payload and response to serve results to a Customer; protected by industry-standard encryption)
5. Credentials manager (persistent storage of Customer credentials to third-party services, protected by industry-standard encryption)
Currently, we use a single location to store all the Customer Data (US West 2 region (Oregon) in the Amazon AWS cloud). We may switch the Cloud Computing vendor to maintain availability as necessary, provided that the vendor maintains the same high level of security (i.e. Azure, Google Cloud). We also may deploy separate instances of the service where appropriate, provided that the contract covers the setup and support.
3. Types of Customer Data
Intento identifies five types of Customer Data:
1. Customer contact information associated with Intento account (name, phone, email address etc.)
2. Customer request payload and response (e.g. text to be translated and translation results).
3. Customer credentials to 3rd party services (e.g. service account for Google AutoML Translate connected to Intento)
4. Customer request metadata (usage logs and statistics)
5. Intento API Keys provided to Customer.
All Customer Data stored persistently is encrypted, accessible only to the user account that owns the data and the Intento employees, which is covered with proper NDAs. More details on what user data is stored at which storage below.
3.1 Customer Contact Information
The Customer Contact Information is stored in the relational database (PostgreSQL) and accessible to Customer and to authorized Intento employees (Customer Service, Account Managers). Also, this data is stored in our CRM system (Hubspot) and document management systems (Google G Suite, Atlassian Confluence, Docusign).
3.2 Customer Request Payload and Response
The Customer Request payload is stored temporarily (in memory) for milliseconds between receiving Customer API request and sending a request to the vendor. There are two cases when it may be stored longer:
1. Customer explicitly asked us to store it for the debug purposes by specifying the API parameter. In this case, this is stored in its entirety in both client and provider request logs.
2. Customer uses the asynchronous mode. In this case, the input data is stored in the Async job storage for the specified time (30 days by default, configured by customer request).
The Customer Request Response may include both results of the successful data processing and error messages from a Third-Party Services. It is stored temporarily (in memory) for milliseconds between receiving an answer from an external service and sending the result to the clients. There are two cases when it may be stored longer:
1. Customer explicitly asked us to store it for the debug purposes by specifying the API parameter. In this case, this is stored in its entirety in both client and provider request logs.
2. Customer uses the asynchronous mode. In this case, the input data is stored in the Async job storage for the specified time (30 days by default, configured by customer request).
3.3 Customer credentials to 3rd party services
The Customer credentials to 3rd party services are stored temporarily (in memory) for milliseconds between receiving Customer request and sending a request to the vendor unless Customer has explicitly saved them in Intento Credentials Manager (necessary to use Third-Party Services with complex authentication protocols, such as Google AutoML).
3.4 Customer Request Metadata
The Customer Request Metadata is everything contained in the request except the Customer Request Payload, Response, and Customer Credentials to Intento and Third-Party Services. Additionally, the metadata includes metadata derived from the payload. For Machine Translation, the derived metadata is the size of the text and the detected language. The request metadata is securely stored in Intento logs for requests from Customer to Intento server.
User credentials in the Intento Credentials Manager are stored persistently in the encrypted form. User has full control over them via the Intento Console.
3.5 Intento API Keys provided to Customer
Intento API Keys provided to the Customer are securely stored in the Intento API Gateway and accessible only to the customer and authorized Intento employees (Account Managers).
4. Data Separation
In order to secure customer data, we provide a separation on the system level between:
· the business-critical Customer Data (request payload, response, Intento API keys, and third-party credentials) and
· data, required for Intento business operation and customer support (request metadata).
This is illustrated on the below diagram.
This separation is also maintained in security policies:
· client business-critical data may be stored only by explicit consent of the client for debug purposes and immediately deleted afterward
· authorized personnel may access client API key and perform requests with the client API key only by consent of the client
All the above exclusions are logged, monitored, and audited.
