Privacy policy

Last updated: October 26, 2026. This page explains what eMarketInsight (emarketinsight.com) stores when you use the site, why, and for how long. We keep it short because we keep very little.

What we store when you use the free tools

• A daily usage counter. Research tools and studio tools have a free daily allowance. To count it, we store a one-way keyed hash of your IP address together with the date and the tool's name. The hash cannot be turned back into your address. Counters older than a few days are deleted.
• A session cookie named ei_pass. It is set the first time a page asks our API for data, lasts 24 hours and contains only a timestamp and a signature. It does not identify you and it is not used for advertising. Calculators and checkers that run in your browser never set it.
• Cached results. Answers from the marketplace data service are cached for up to an hour so repeat searches are free and fast. The cache holds the search phrase and the result, not who searched.
• Images you upload to studio tools. An image you upload is stored so the image service can process it, under a file name derived from the same hashed counter key. Each visitor has a small number of slots that are overwritten as new images arrive. Only upload images you own or have the right to use.

What runs only on your device

The Etsy fees calculator, profit calculator, title checker, tag checker, keyword combiner, shop name generator, print file checker and print size calculator do their work in your browser. What you type or drop into them is not sent to us.

Contact form

If you write to us, we store your name, email address, topic and message so we can reply. We do not add you to a mailing list.

Accounts and payments

When you create an account we store your email address, your plan, your credit balance and what you ran with your credits. Card payments are handled by Stripe; we never see or store your full card number.

Connecting your Etsy shop

If you connect your Etsy shop, you sign in on Etsy and approve read-only access (the scopes shops_r, listings_r and transactions_r). We cannot change your listings, orders or shop settings. With that access we read and store:

• Your shop: its name, icon, currency, country and public figures such as favorites and reviews.
• Your listings: title, state, price, quantity, tags, photos count, favorites and dates.
• Your orders of the last 24 months: the date, the totals (items, shipping, refunds), the items and quantities, the ship-to country, and a one-way keyed hash of the buyer's Etsy id so repeat customers can be counted. We do not store buyer names, email addresses or postal addresses.

We use this only to show you your own figures in your dashboard and to answer your questions in the AI Analyst; it is never shown to anyone else, sold or used for advertising. Etsy's access tokens are encrypted at rest. The data refreshes every few hours while you use it, and in real time when Etsy notifies us of a new order or a listing change. Disconnecting the shop in your dashboard deletes the tokens at once and every synced row within minutes. You can also revoke access from your Etsy account settings at any time.

Service providers

• Hosting: the site and its API run on the Webmati platform.
• Network and security: traffic passes through Cloudflare, which may process your IP address to deliver and protect the site.
• Marketplace data and image processing: searches and studio requests are sent to our data and image processing provider to produce the result. Search phrases and uploaded images are shared with it for that purpose only.

What we do not do

We do not sell personal data, we do not run third-party advertising trackers, and we do not build profiles of visitors.

Your choices

You can block or delete the ei_pass cookie at any time; the research and studio tools will then ask your browser to allow it again before they run. To ask what we hold about you or to have a contact message deleted, write to us through the contact page.
