Privacy Policy
Effective date: April 28, 2026 · Last updated: April 28, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how PYRX Technologies ("PYRX," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards your information when you use the Synapse customer communications platform, including the dashboard at synapse-app.pyrx.tech, the marketing site at crm.pyrx.tech, the API at synapse-api.pyrx.tech, and all related SDKs and services (collectively, the "Service"). Please read this policy carefully. By using the Service, you consent to the practices described herein.
1. About Us
PYRX Technologies operates Synapse, an event-driven customer communications platform that provides email automation, template management, audience segmentation, and analytics for businesses. Our platform serves both direct users (you) and enables you to communicate with your own end users through the Service.
2. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to all information collected through:
- The Synapse marketing site at crm.pyrx.tech
- The Synapse dashboard at synapse-app.pyrx.tech
- The Synapse API at synapse-api.pyrx.tech
- The Synapse event ingestion endpoint at synapse-events.pyrx.tech
- All Synapse SDKs and developer tools
- Email communications from Synapse
3. Our Role: Data Controller and Data Processor
As Data Controller
We act as a data controller for information we collect directly from you — your account information, usage data, billing information, and support communications. We determine the purposes and means of processing this data.
As Data Processor
We act as a data processor for the personal data of your end users that you submit to Synapse through the API, SDK, or dashboard (e.g., your contacts' email addresses, event data, segmentation attributes). You are the data controller for this data, and we process it solely on your instructions to provide the Service.
4. Information We Collect
4.1 Information We Collect as Controller
Account Information
When you create an account, we receive your name, email address, and organization name through our authentication service. We also store your workspace memberships, roles, and preferences.
Billing Information
We do not collect or store credit card numbers or payment method details. All payment processing is handled by Lemon Squeezy, our Merchant of Record. We receive subscription status, plan details, customer ID, and billing period information from Lemon Squeezy via webhooks.
Usage Data
We collect information about how you interact with the Service, including pages visited in the dashboard, features used, API calls made (method, endpoint, response code), and timestamps. This data helps us improve the product, diagnose technical issues, and enforce rate limits.
Support Communications
When you contact us for support, we collect the content of your communications and any attachments you provide.
API Key Metadata
We store metadata about your API keys (name, scope, creation date, last used). The key value itself is bcrypt-hashed and cannot be retrieved after creation.
4.2 Information We Process as Processor
Contacts
Contact records you create or import, including email addresses, names, and any custom properties you define.
Events
Event data you send to the event ingestion endpoint, including event name, properties, and associated contact identifiers.
Email Interactions
Email delivery status, open events, click events, bounce notifications, and unsubscribe requests for emails sent through the Service.
Segments
Segment definitions and audience membership data derived from contact properties and event data.
5. Automatic Data Collection
Server Logs
Our servers automatically log request metadata including IP address, user agent, referrer, request path, and response code for security monitoring and debugging.
Device Information
We collect browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and language preference to optimize the dashboard experience.
IP and Geolocation
We use IP-based geolocation (via Cloudflare CF-IPCountry header) to determine your country for geo-pricing purposes. We do not perform precise geolocation tracking.
Cookies and Local Storage
We use essential cookies and local storage for authentication and preferences. See our Cookie Policy for details.
6. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate, and maintain the Service, including email delivery, flow execution, and analytics
- Manage your account, workspace memberships, and access permissions
- Process billing transactions through Lemon Squeezy and enforce plan limits
- Monitor for security threats, detect fraud, and prevent abuse
- Analyze usage patterns to improve the Service and develop new features
- Send transactional communications (account verification, service notifications, billing alerts)
- Comply with legal obligations, respond to legal process, and protect our rights
7. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We Do Not Sell Your Data
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or Customer Data to third parties for their marketing purposes.
Sub-Processors
We share data with our sub-processors solely as necessary to provide the Service. See Section 8 for the complete list.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose information when required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We will notify you of any such transfer and any changes to this Privacy Policy.
Aggregated Data
We may share aggregated, anonymized, and de-identified data that cannot reasonably identify you for industry analysis, benchmarking, and product improvement.
8. Sub-Processors
We use the following sub-processors to operate the Service:
| Provider | Purpose | Location |
|---|---|---|
| PYRX Auth | Authentication and identity management | United States |
| Lemon Squeezy | Billing, payment processing, and tax | United States |
| Resend | Email delivery | United States |

9. International Data Transfers
Our infrastructure is hosted on Google Cloud Platform in the United States. Your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States and other countries where our sub-processors operate.
For transfers of personal data from the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom to countries that do not have an adequate level of data protection, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission or equivalent transfer mechanisms.
10. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data:
- Encryption in transit — all data transmitted between you and the Service is encrypted using TLS 1.2+
- Encryption at rest — all data stored in our databases and storage systems is encrypted at rest
- Tenant isolation — PostgreSQL Row-Level Security (RLS) policies enforce strict data isolation between workspaces at the database level
- API key security — API keys are bcrypt-hashed before storage; the plaintext key is shown once at creation and cannot be retrieved
- JWT authentication — dashboard sessions use RS256-signed JWTs verified via JWKS endpoint with 6-hour key cache
- Role-based access control — 6 distinct roles (owner, admin, developer, marketing, operations, viewer) with granular permission enforcement
- Audit logging — security-sensitive actions are recorded with tenant, user, and timestamp context
For more information, see our Security page.
