PRIVACY

Privacy policy

Effective September 10, 2026. This policy covers the Open Economics website, public API, and MCP server.

01 / SERVICE

Public access, with no account.

Open Economics provides read-only access to economic data published by official Brazilian agencies. We require no registration, API key, or authentication, and we do not ask for names, email addresses, or payment information.

02 / DATA COLLECTED

Limited usage and reliability metrics.

On the website, we generate random browser identifiers to estimate unique visitors, sessions, and repeat use. The server stores only cryptographic hashes of those identifiers. We also record page path, referring domain, UTM parameters, language, device class, loading-time bands, browser errors, sanitized searches, and product actions such as running a recipe or copying configuration.

For API and MCP requests, we record aggregate counts by route, status, MCP tool, and day. Open Economics does not store full response content or IP addresses in its metrics database.

03 / USE

Operate and improve the product.

We use these metrics to measure adoption, find failures, improve performance, prioritize documentation, and protect service availability. We do not use the data for targeted advertising or sell it.

04 / SHARING

Infrastructure and official sources.

The service is hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure through OpenAI Sites. Queries may be forwarded to the public services of agencies named in the response, including BCB, IBGE, Tesouro Nacional, MDIC, ANP, EPE, MTE, and CVM. Those providers process requests under their own terms. We may disclose information when required by law or necessary to protect the service.

05 / CHOICES

Local control and requests.

You can clear the site’s local data in your browser settings or block local storage. For privacy questions or requests, open an issue in the public repository. Because we do not maintain accounts and stored identifiers are hashed, we may be unable to associate a metric with a specific person.

06 / CONTACT

Public, auditable support.

Use the Open Economics issue tracker for questions, privacy requests, or security reports.
