Transparency at AIR Tools
We believe you deserve to know exactly how your data is handled. Here is everything about our AI, data storage, sub-processors, and protective measures. No fine print, no surprises.
How We Use Artificial Intelligence
AI powers the core of AIR Tools, but always under your control
AIR Tools uses Google Gemini via Firebase Genkit to analyze your security posture, generate findings, draft policies, and provide recommendations. Every AI feature uses structured output with strict schemas, so you always get consistent, predictable results. Never hallucinated data presented as fact.
What AI Sees
The AI processes your organization profile (industry, size, tools used), publicly available website information, and your compliance findings and risks. It uses this context to generate personalized, relevant advice for your specific business.
What AI Does Not See
The AI never has access to your raw passwords, payment details, or personal employee data beyond what is needed for team management. AI-generated content (policies, recommendations) is always presented as drafts for your review and never applied automatically.
Where Your Data Lives
Your data stays in the European Union
EU Data Residency
All data is stored in Google Cloud data centers within the European Union (eur3 multi-region). Your data never leaves the EU for processing or storage.
Encryption at Rest & in Transit
All data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit using TLS 1.3. Database backups are encrypted with the same standards.
Tenant Isolation
Each organization’s data is logically isolated using Firestore security rules. No organization can access another’s data. This is enforced at the database level, not just the application level.
Sub-Processors
Every third party that touches your data
Google Cloud Platform
Infrastructure, compute, and database hosting. Data stored in EU (eur3). Processes organization data, compliance findings, and AI analysis.
Firebase (Google)
Authentication, Firestore database, Cloud Functions, and Hosting. Handles user accounts, organization data, and serverless backend logic.
Stripe
Payment processing for premium subscriptions. Processes billing information only. Stripe never sees your compliance data or organization details.
Google Analytics 4
Anonymous usage analytics to improve the product. Only activated with your explicit cookie consent. No personal data is shared and all tracking is anonymized.
Protective Measures
How we protect your data
Authentication & Access Control
Firebase Authentication with secure password hashing. Role-based access control (owner/member) enforced at database and application level.
Database Security Rules
Granular Firestore security rules ensure every read and write is authorized. Rules are version-controlled and tested with automated unit tests.
Continuous Monitoring
Automated dependency scanning, code quality checks, and security reviews on every code change. Regular check-ups verify your security posture stays current.
Incident Response
Documented incident response procedures with defined roles and communication channels. Issues are triaged and addressed according to severity.
Secure Development
All code goes through automated review, type checking, and testing before deployment. Dependencies are audited for known vulnerabilities.
Responsible Disclosure
We maintain a security.txt file at /.well-known/security.txt with contact information for reporting vulnerabilities. We welcome responsible disclosure.
Our Commitment
Transparency is not a feature. It is how we operate. We use AI to help you, store your data in the EU, work with trusted sub-processors only, and apply best practices at every layer. If you have questions about any of this, we are happy to talk.
