05Storage and retention

Star Captain's website and database are hosted in Hong Kong, China (Tencent Cloud). Channel QR sign-in sessions and public-data retrieval use servers in the United States. Some providers in Section 4 process data overseas. Using these features means you understand and consent to the related cross-border processing. We apply safeguards required by applicable law.

06How we protect information

  • HTTPS encryption in transit across the site;
  • Encrypted TikTok tokens and inventory passwords; login passwords stored only as irreversible hashes;
  • Channel QR sign-in sessions stored separately on dedicated servers, used only to sync that account. Disconnect or sign out to remove the session;
  • Organization separation and role-based access. Profit and cost are restricted to organization owners by default;
  • Audit trails for key actions, including password views, commission changes, and data deletion;
  • Regular encrypted database backups and server access limited to necessary operations staff.

No system can guarantee absolute security. If a security incident occurs, we will respond promptly and notify affected users and organizations as required by law.
