Privacy Policy
Last updated: 26 October 2026
Overview
PoreWise is an independent reference for skincare ingredient and formula data. We do not require an account, and browsing the site does not ask you for personal information. This policy explains what we do and do not collect, and the choices available to you.
What we collect
- Browsing: We do not set first-party tracking cookies. Standard server logs (IP address, requested URL, user agent, timestamp) are processed by our hosting provider, Cloudflare, to deliver and secure the site.
- Search and API / MCP: Queries you send to the public API or the MCP server may be logged in aggregate to operate and improve the service. We do not link these logs to a personal identity.
- Messages: If you contact us, we keep the content of your message and the address used to reply.
Cookies and local storage
The site itself does not use advertising or analytics cookies. Your browser may cache assets for performance. Any preference you set in the interface is stored only on your own device.
Third-party services
The site is served through Cloudflare, which may process technical request data as described in its own privacy notice. We do not share personal data with advertisers.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the EU GDPR or California CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold, and to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the address below.
