AI Service — Special Notices

We offer three AI tools on this site. Each tool processes data as described below.

① Style chatbot (/api/chat)

Your messages are sent to the Anthropic Claude API to generate a response. The transmitted data is not used by Anthropic for model training, and is auto-deleted after up to 30 days (abuse-prevention retention).

② AI Redesign (/api/redesign)

Uploaded room photos are sent to the Anthropic Claude API to produce analysis. Photos are not stored on our server — they are discarded immediately after processing. Anthropic also does not use them for training.

Please make sure photos do not contain faces or personally identifiable information.

③ Auto estimator

All calculations run in your browser and are not sent to the server. Email is collected only if you explicitly request the result to be emailed.

08

Cookies and Tracking

  • localStorage — stores your language choice (ko/en/vi). Contains no personally identifying info.
  • Google Analytics 4 + Vercel Speed Insights — used for visitor analytics and page-performance (Web Vitals) measurement. We ask for your consent via a banner on your first visit; trackers only load if you accept. IPs are anonymized before transmission and individuals are not identified.

You can change your cookie choice anytime via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer, and also disable cookies and localStorage from your browser settings.

09

Security Measures

  • Transport-layer encryption (HTTPS / TLS 1.2+)
  • Principle of least privilege for access (limited to CRM operators)
  • Regular rotation of API keys and auth tokens (quarterly)
  • Mandatory two-factor authentication for admin accounts
  • Bot / spam protection (honeypot · rate limit · input validation)
