Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

Who we are

openregistry is a free, remote MCP server operated by Sophymarine (support@sophymarine.com). It provides programmatic access to official national company registries.

Data we collect

We collect the minimum data necessary to operate the service:

• Server logs: IP address, HTTP method, path, response status code, and response time. Retained for 14 days for debugging and abuse prevention. Query content (e.g. company names you search) is not logged.
• Session identifiers: Short-lived UUIDs generated per MCP session. Not stored after the session ends.

We do not require accounts. We do not use cookies. We do not track users across sessions.

Data we do not collect

• We do not log the content of your queries or tool calls.
• We do not collect names, email addresses, or any personal information.
• We do not use analytics or advertising trackers.

Third-party data sources

Tool calls are proxied to official government registries (e.g. UK Companies House). Your IP address may be visible to those upstream APIs. Their privacy policies apply to data they collect:

• UK Companies House: https://www.gov.uk/help/privacy-notice

Data returned to you

All data returned by openregistry tools comes from public official registries and is available under open government licences. We do not add, modify, or enrich it.

Data storage and retention

Server logs are stored on the hosting server (Microsoft Azure, West Europe region) and automatically deleted after 14 days. No query data is retained.

Third-party sharing

We do not sell, share, or disclose any data to third parties, except as required by law.

Your rights

As we do not store personal data beyond short-lived server logs, there is no profile to access, correct, or delete. If you have a concern, contact us and we will respond within 30 days.

Changes to this policy

We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page when changes are made. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance.
