Security and trust

Operational data stays scoped to the people who need it.

How PorterBase protects accounts, scopes business data, records operational activity, and limits use of customer information.

Account protection

Passwords are stored as cryptographic hashes, accounts use email verification, and password resets use expiring verification records. Repeated sign-in failures are rate-limited by email and IP address.

Business-scoped access

Inventory and operational queries are resolved against the signed-in user’s active business. Roles separate management access from the technician-focused field experience.

Traceable operations

Inventory transactions and activity records preserve who performed important changes and how parts moved through the business.

No advertising profile

PorterBase does not include advertising SDKs, session replay, cross-site tracking, or behavioral advertising profiles. Customer business data is not used to train machine-learning models.

Browser extension access

The extension reads cart and product information only on supported vendor pages when an authenticated user uses the cart-sync workflow. Its authentication token expires after seven days and should be treated like a password.

What the Chrome extension does

No online service can guarantee absolute security. For the complete description of information handling and service providers, review the Privacy Policy.
