# Lumenore Analytics MCP Server Privacy Policy
## Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how the Lumenore Analytics MCP Server handles user data and privacy. The Lumenore Analytics MCP Server acts as a bridge between AI assistants and Lumenore's analytics backend, providing access to powerful data analysis capabilities while maintaining strict privacy standards.
## What Data We Collect
### Data Processed by the MCP Server
