This Privacy Notice describes how Promptfoo, Inc. (“we”, “us,” “our”, “Promptfoo”) collects, uses and discloses personal information about consumers who use our website (https://www.promptfoo.dev/) applications, products and services, tools and features, or otherwise interact with us for their personal, family or household purposes (collectively, the “Services”).
Please note that this Privacy Notice does not apply to:
Please read this Privacy Notice carefully. By using any of the Services, you agree to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Notice. If you do not agree to this Privacy Notice, please do not use or access the Services.
We may modify this Privacy Notice from time to time, in which case we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Notice. If we make material changes to the way in which we use or disclose personal information we collect, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you (such as by emailing you at the last email address you provided us or by posting notice of such changes on the Services) and will take additional steps as required by applicable law. If you do not agree to any updates to this Privacy Notice, please do not continue using or accessing the Services.
When you use or access the Services, we collect certain categories of personal information about you from a variety of sources.
Some features of the Services may require you to directly provide us with certain personal information about yourself. You may elect not to provide this personal information, but doing so may prevent you from using or accessing these features. Personal information that you directly submit through our Services includes:
When you use the Promptfoo Command Line Interface (CLI) and library locally, the source code is executed on your machine, and any call to Language Model (LLM) APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) are sent directly to the LLM provider. We do not have access to these requests or responses unless you provide us with access.
We also automatically collect certain information about your interaction with the Services (“Usage Data”). To do this, we may use cookies, javascript, local storage technologies, web beacons/clear gifs, and other tracking technologies (“Tracking Technologies”). Usage Data includes:
If you opt-in, some features (called SimulatedUser and red team) send prompts to Promptfoo’s servers to generate responses, unless you change the settings. However, the AI model you are testing or evaluating always runs on your own system, not on Promptfoo’s servers.
We use Usage Data to provide our services, protect against fraud or abuse, for analytics, and to better understand user interaction with the Services. For more information on how we use Tracking Technologies and your choices, see the section below, Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies.
We may obtain personal information about you from outside sources, including personal information that we collect directly from third parties and personal information from third parties that you choose to share with us.
Any personal information we receive from outside sources will be treated in accordance with this Privacy Notice and as permitted by applicable law. We are not responsible for the accuracy of the personal information provided to us by third parties and are not responsible for any third party’s policies or practices. For more information, see the section below, Third Party Websites and Links.
In addition to the specific uses described above, we may use your personal information for the below purposes or as otherwise described at the time of collection. We may use your personal information to:
Finally, we may deidentify or anonymize your personal information such that it cannot reasonably be used to infer personal information about you or otherwise be linked to you (“deidentified information”) (or we may collect personal information that has already been deidentified/anonymized), and we may use such deidentified information for any purpose. To the extent we possess or process any deidentified information, we will maintain and use such information in deidentified form and not attempt to re-identify the information, except for the purpose of determining whether our deidentification process satisfies legal requirements.
As described above, we and third parties use Tracking Technologies to collect certain information about your interactions with the Services. Most browsers accept cookies automatically, but you may be able to control the way in which your devices permit the use of Tracking Technologies. If you so choose, you may block or delete our cookies from your browser; however, blocking or deleting cookies may cause some of the Services, including certain features and general functionality, to work incorrectly. If you have questions regarding the specific information about you that we process or retain, as well as your choices regarding our collection and use practices, please contact us using the information listed below. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your browser and how to manage and delete them, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
Your browser settings may allow you to transmit a “Do Not Track” signal when you visit various websites. Like many websites, our website is not designed to respond to such signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties subject to this Privacy Notice, including the following categories of third parties:
We may provide links to third-party websites or platforms. If you follow links to sites or platforms that we do not control and are not affiliated with us, you should review the applicable privacy notice, policies and other terms. We are not responsible for the privacy or security of, or information found on, these sites or platforms. Information you provide on public or semi-public venues, such as third-party social networking platforms, may also be viewable by other users of the Services and/or users of those third-party platforms without limitation as to its use. Our inclusion of such links does not, by itself, imply any endorsement of the content on such platforms or of their owners or operators.
We have implemented security measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. However, despite our efforts to protect your information, no security measures are impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee “perfect security.” Any information you send to us electronically, while using the Services or otherwise interacting with us, may not be secure while in transit or while in storage. We recommend that you do not use unsecure channels to send us sensitive or confidential information.
We are headquartered in the United States and may use service providers that operate in other countries. Your personal information may be transferred to the United States or other locations where privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your state, province, or country.
