Privacy Policy
Inferfly (operated by Inferfly)
This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use our managed LLM inference platform, website (inferfly.ai), APIs, dashboards, and related services.
Last updated: 5 April 2026
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Inferfly ("Inferfly", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use our managed LLM inference platform, website (inferfly.ai), APIs, dashboards, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
2. Who We Are
Inferfly is a sole proprietorship registered in India. We provide managed GPU inference endpoints for open-source large language models, offering OpenAI-compatible APIs, monitoring, and deployment management to businesses, developers, and researchers.
3. Information We Collect
3.1 Account Information
When you create an Inferfly account, we collect:
- Full name
- Email address
- Company or organisation name (if applicable)
- Country of residence or incorporation
- Password (stored only in hashed form)
3.2 Billing and Payment Information
Payments are processed by our Merchant of Record, Dodo Payments, which handles all payment instrument data (credit/debit cards, UPI, bank transfers), invoicing, tax collection (including Indian GST), and cross-border settlement on our behalf. Inferfly does not directly collect, store, or process your payment card numbers, bank account details, or UPI IDs. We receive from Dodo Payments only the information necessary to associate payments with your account: transaction identifiers, payment status, invoice amounts, billing address, and tax identifiers (e.g., GSTIN) where applicable.
For details on how Dodo Payments handles your payment data, please refer to Dodo Payments' own privacy policy.
3.3 API and Deployment Data
When you use the Service, we collect and process:
- API request metadata: Timestamps, request and response token counts, model identifiers, deployment IDs, HTTP status codes, latency measurements, and rate-limiting counters.
- API keys: We store cryptographic hashes (SHA-256) of your API keys. We do not store your API keys in plaintext after initial generation.
- Deployment configuration: Model selection, GPU type, tensor parallelism settings, quantisation preferences, maximum context length, and scaling parameters you configure.
- Infrastructure telemetry: GPU utilisation, VRAM usage, request throughput, time-to-first-token, inter-token latency, queue depth, and other performance metrics collected via Prometheus and vLLM's metrics endpoints.
3.4 Inference Payloads
We do not log, store, inspect, or train on the content of your inference requests or responses. Prompts and completions pass through our routing infrastructure (Cloudflare Workers) and are forwarded to your dedicated vLLM endpoint. Once the request is served, no copy of the payload is retained by Inferfly.
The sole exception is if you explicitly opt in to a feature that requires payload logging (e.g., a future request logging or evaluation feature), in which case we will obtain your separate, informed consent and clearly disclose the scope and retention period.
3.5 Open WebUI Data (if applicable)
If you purchase a managed Open WebUI instance as an add-on, the chat history, user preferences, and uploaded files within that instance are stored on infrastructure provisioned for your account. Inferfly does not access or process the contents of your Open WebUI instance except as necessary to provide the service (e.g., backups, infrastructure maintenance) or as directed by you.
3.6 Website and Analytics Data
When you visit inferfly.ai, we collect data through cookies and similar technologies, including via Google Analytics (see Section 9 for full details). Subject to your cookie consent preferences, we may collect:

9. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website (inferfly.ai) uses cookies and similar technologies (such as pixel tags and local storage) to operate the site, understand usage patterns, and improve your experience. This section explains what cookies we use, why, and how you can control them.
9.1 Types of Cookies We Use
Essential cookies. These are strictly necessary for the website to function. They handle session management, authentication state, and security features such as CSRF protection. You cannot opt out of essential cookies without impairing core site functionality.
Analytics cookies. We use Google Analytics (provided by Google LLC) to collect anonymised, aggregate data about how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to gather information such as pages visited, time on site, bounce rate, traffic sources, approximate geographic location (country/region level, derived from IP address), browser type, device category, and screen resolution. We have configured Google Analytics with the following privacy-oriented settings:
- IP anonymisation is enabled, meaning your full IP address is not stored by Google.
- We do not enable Google Signals, User-ID tracking, or any feature that links analytics data to individual Google accounts.
- We do not enable advertising features, remarketing, or demographic/interest reporting within Google Analytics.
- Analytics data is retained for the minimum period supported by Google Analytics configuration settings.
We integrate Google Analytics using Google Consent Mode, which signals your choice to Google before analytics storage is used: analytics storage remains denied until you opt in through our cookie banner, and advertising-related consent types are set to denied to align with our configuration (we do not use GA for ads or remarketing).
Google may process this data on servers located outside your country of residence, including in the United States. For more information on how Google handles data collected through Analytics, refer to Google's Privacy Policy and the Google Analytics data practices documentation.
We do not use advertising cookies, remarketing pixels, or tracking technologies for the purpose of serving ads. Inferfly does not display advertisements on any of its properties and does not participate in advertising networks.
9.2 Cookie Consent
When you first visit inferfly.ai, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies (including analytics cookies). Your preference is stored and respected for subsequent visits.
- If you decline analytics cookies, Google Analytics will not be loaded and no analytics data will be collected from your session.
- You may change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site, or by using the cookie preferences link in the website footer.
9.3 Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
If your browser transmits a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal or similar opt-out preference signal, we will treat it as an opt-out of non-essential cookies, including analytics cookies, to the extent required by applicable law.
We also respect the "Do Not Track" (DNT) browser signal where technically feasible.
9.4 Managing Cookies via Your Browser
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies may prevent parts of the website from functioning correctly. For instructions on managing cookies, consult your browser's help documentation.

11.1 India-Specific Rights (Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023)
For individuals whose personal data is processed under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act):
- You have the right to access information about the personal data being processed and a summary of processing activities.
- You have the right to correction, completion, and erasure of your personal data.
- You have the right to grievance redressal. Our Grievance Officer (see Section 14) will acknowledge your grievance and resolve it within the timeframes prescribed under the DPDP Act.

We will obtain your consent before processing personal data where required under the DPDP Act, and such consent may be withdrawn at any time.
11.2 United States Privacy Rights
The United States does not have a single federal comprehensive privacy law. Instead, privacy is governed by a growing patchwork of state-level legislation. As of 2026, approximately twenty U.S. states have enacted comprehensive consumer privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), the Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA), and laws in states such as Oregon, Texas, Delaware, Maryland, Indiana, Kentucky, Rhode Island, and others.
Applicability. Many of these laws apply only to businesses that meet specific thresholds (e.g., the CCPA generally applies to for-profit businesses with annual gross revenue exceeding approximately $26.6 million, or that buy, sell, or share the personal information of 100,000 or more state residents, or that derive 50% or more of revenue from selling personal information). While Inferfly may not currently meet all such thresholds, we extend the following rights to all U.S.-based users as a matter of good practice and transparency.
Your rights under U.S. state privacy laws. Depending on the state in which you reside, you may have some or all of the following rights:
- Right to know/access: Request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources from which it was collected, the business purposes for collection, and the categories of third parties with whom it has been shared.
- Right to delete: Request that we delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to certain exceptions (e.g., completing a transaction, detecting security incidents, complying with legal obligations).
- Right to correct: Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Right to opt out of sale or sharing: You have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information as those terms are defined under applicable state law. Inferfly does not sell your personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising.
- Right to limit use of sensitive personal information: Where applicable, request that we limit our use of sensitive personal information to what is necessary to provide the Service.
- Right to data portability: Request your personal information in a portable, readily usable format.
- Right to non-discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your privacy rights.
Universal Opt-Out Mechanisms. Multiple U.S. states now require businesses to honour Universal Opt-Out Mechanisms such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser or device transmits a GPC or similar opt-out preference signal, we will treat it as a valid opt-out request for the sale or sharing of personal information to the extent required by applicable law.
Authorised agents. In certain states, you may designate an authorised agent to submit privacy requests on your behalf. We may require verification of both the agent's authority and your identity before processing such requests.
Submitting requests. To exercise any of the rights described above, please contact us at privacy@inferfly.ai. We will verify your identity and respond within the timeframe required by applicable law (typically 45 days under CCPA/CPRA, with the possibility of a 45-day extension where necessary).
Categories of personal information collected. For the purposes of the CCPA/CPRA, the categories of personal information we may collect include: identifiers (name, email, IP address), commercial information (transaction and billing records), internet or electronic network activity (API request metadata, website usage data), geolocation data (derived from IP address, at a general level), and professional or employment-related information (company name, role, where provided). We do not collect or process biometric information, and we do not process inference payload content (see Section 3.4).
Disclosure of data practices. In the preceding 12 months:
- We have collected the categories of personal information described in Section 3 of this Privacy Policy.
- We have disclosed personal information to the categories of service providers described in Section 6.1 for the business purposes described in Section 4.
- We have not sold personal information.
- We have not shared personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising.
12. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed at individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by posting the updated policy on our website with a revised "Last updated" date, and where appropriate, by email or in-dashboard notification.
Your continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
