Safety and privacy

Every tool is read-only: it cannot make bookings, send messages, modify transit data, or change public internet state. We keep privacy-safe daily aggregate counts by method, tool, and success or error outcome for up to 90 days. Arguments, response bodies, IP addresses, user agents, client identifiers, and account identifiers are not included in these MCP usage counters.
