Zero-Retention Mode

Zero-retention mode ensures your search queries and results are never stored or logged.

How It Works

When enabled, UnSearch:

1. Never logs your search queries
2. Never stores search results or scraped content
3. Never tracks individual query patterns
4. Only tracks aggregate usage counts for billing

Enabling Zero-Retention

Contact support to enable zero-retention mode on your account, or self-host UnSearch for complete control.

Self-Hosting for Maximum Privacy

For the highest level of privacy, self-host UnSearch:

docker run -d -p 8000:8000 unsearch/unsearch

When self-hosted, no data ever leaves your infrastructure.

Compliance

Zero-retention mode helps with:

• GDPR compliance (no personal data stored)
• HIPAA considerations (no PHI in search logs)
• SOC 2 requirements (data minimization)
