Privacy Policy<\/h3>

Effective Date:<\/strong> September 30, 2026<\/p>

Service:<\/strong> Evolai Shield & Network Security Services<\/p>

At Evolai, we prioritize network security, transparency, and user privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how Evolai processes, uses, retains, and protects information in connection with its VPN, secure DNS filtering, and private search services.<\/p>

1. VPN Privacy & No-Traffic-Monitoring Policy<\/h3>

Our VPN service is designed to provide encrypted network connectivity without monitoring or commercially exploiting users’ online activity.<\/p>

We do not intentionally:<\/p>

  • Monitor or record the websites users visit through the VPN.<\/p><\/li>

  • Store the content of users’ internet communications or transmitted files.<\/p><\/li>

  • Create browsing profiles based on VPN traffic.<\/p><\/li>

  • Sell, rent, or monetize VPN traffic data.<\/p><\/li>

  • Use VPN traffic data for advertising or behavioral profiling.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

    VPN traffic is routed through encrypted VPN infrastructure, including WireGuard-based connections where applicable.<\/p>

    We do not maintain a permanent browsing history associated with individual subscribers.<\/p>

    Operational system information may exist temporarily as part of normal server operation, security, error handling, or infrastructure management. Such information is not used to monitor users’ browsing activity or for commercial profiling.<\/p>

    2. DNS Filtering & Query Processing<\/h3>

    Our DNS protection service provides domain-level filtering for advertising, tracking, malware, phishing, and other unwanted or potentially harmful domains.<\/p>

    DNS queries are processed through our DNS filtering infrastructure and may be evaluated against security and filtering rules before being forwarded to configured upstream DNS resolvers.<\/p>

    DNS Query Logs<\/p>

    For the purpose of operating, securing, troubleshooting, and improving the reliability of the DNS protection service, limited DNS query information may be temporarily retained.<\/p>

    DNS diagnostic logs are configured for a maximum retention period of 6 hours<\/strong>, after which they are automatically deleted according to the service’s configured retention and cleanup mechanisms.<\/p>

    These logs may be used solely for:<\/p>

    • Technical diagnostics.<\/p><\/li>

    • Troubleshooting incorrect or unexpected filtering.<\/p><\/li>

    • Security investigation.<\/p><\/li>

    • Service reliability and support.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

      DNS query information is not used for:<\/p>

      • Advertising.<\/p><\/li>

      • Behavioral profiling.<\/p><\/li>

      • Selling or monetizing user data.<\/p><\/li>

      • Building permanent browsing histories.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

        We do not retain DNS query logs indefinitely.<\/p>

        IP Address Handling<\/h3>

        Where technically supported by the DNS filtering configuration, client IP information contained in diagnostic records is anonymized or truncated to reduce the ability to associate individual DNS queries with a specific subscriber.<\/p>

        The exact technical treatment may vary depending on the DNS service configuration and infrastructure in use.<\/p>

        3. Private Search Service<\/h3>

        Evolai may provide a privacy-oriented search service through its independently operated SearXNG instance.<\/p>

        The private search service acts as a metasearch interface and retrieves search results from configured external search providers.<\/p>

        Evolai does not use the search service to create advertising profiles or sell users’ search activity.<\/p>

        Search requests may necessarily be transmitted to external search providers selected by the SearXNG configuration in order to retrieve search results. Those providers may process requests according to their own privacy policies and terms.<\/p>

        Users should therefore understand that operating a private search interface does not mean that external search providers receive no request information.<\/p>

        Operational server logs, error logs, security logs, and other technical information may be generated as part of normal infrastructure operation. Their retention and configuration are governed by the applicable server configuration and security requirements.<\/p>

        4. Account & Billing Information<\/h3>

        To provide account management, authentication, service provisioning, customer support, and billing, we process the minimum information reasonably necessary to operate the service.<\/p>

        This may include:<\/p>
