Security

Last updated: October 12, 2026

This Security page explains how DeepSeek-USA.ai (“DeepSeek USA,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Site”) approaches website security, contact form safety, abuse prevention, analytics, advertising integrity, Cloudflare protection, and responsible reporting of security concerns.

This page should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Terms of Service, and Disclaimer.

This page is not a guarantee that the Site will always be secure, uninterrupted, error-free, or immune from attacks. It describes the security practices, expectations, limitations, and reporting channels that apply to this independent website.

Independent and Unofficial Website

DeepSeek USA is an independent, unofficial informational website created for readers in the United States. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, operated by, or connected to DeepSeek, Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Co., Ltd., or any official DeepSeek product, service, model, app, API, account system, trademark owner, or related entity.

DeepSeek USA does not operate DeepSeek’s official app, DeepSeek Web, DeepSeek API platform, official accounts, billing system, developer console, model services, support channels, documentation portal, or privacy request process.

We cannot access, recover, reset, delete, export, modify, or secure your official DeepSeek account, prompts, uploaded files, conversations, chat history, API keys, API usage, billing records, subscriptions, app telemetry, or support tickets.

Our Security Approach

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to help protect the Site, reduce abuse, keep content available, and limit the information collected through this website. These measures may include HTTPS, Cloudflare security and performance services, hosting controls, access controls, spam-prevention tools, monitoring, backups, software updates, and other operational safeguards.

Security is an ongoing process. No website, server, contact form, analytics tool, advertising system, email system, or third-party service can be guaranteed to be completely secure at all times.

We aim to collect only the information reasonably needed to operate, secure, measure, improve, and support the Site. We also ask users not to send sensitive information through the contact form or email.

HTTPS and Secure Connections

The Site is served over HTTPS, which helps protect information in transit between your browser and the Site. HTTPS helps reduce the risk of certain types of interception or tampering while data is being transmitted.

However, HTTPS does not make a website completely secure, does not protect against every type of attack, and does not guarantee the safety or accuracy of third-party websites, ads, downloads, apps, or external links.

Cloudflare Security and Performance

We use Cloudflare for services such as security, content delivery, caching, performance optimization, traffic management, bot mitigation, and protection against malicious or abusive traffic.

Cloudflare may process technical information such as IP address, request data, browser information, device information, security signals, performance data, and similar information in order to provide its services.

Depending on the Cloudflare features enabled and the traffic conditions affecting the Site, Cloudflare may set or use cookies or similar technologies for security, bot detection, challenge pages, rate limiting, traffic management, load balancing, or related protective functions.

For more information, review Cloudflare’s documentation: Cloudflare Cookies.

Contact Form Security

The Site may provide a contact form or email address so readers can send questions, correction requests, feedback, source links, or security concerns. Contact form messages may be delivered to us by email and may also be processed or temporarily stored by our website software, form plugin, hosting provider, email provider, security tools, spam-prevention tools, or backup systems.

Please do not send passwords, API keys, payment details, government identifiers, medical records, confidential business information, private source code, client data, regulated data, official DeepSeek account information, or other sensitive information through our contact form or email.

If you need to report a security issue, send only the minimum information needed for us to understand the issue. Do not include sensitive data, credentials, private files, or information taken from accounts, systems, or users that you do not own or have permission to test.

Google Analytics and Measurement Security

We use Google Analytics and may use similar analytics or performance measurement tools to understand how visitors interact with the Site, measure content performance, identify technical issues, and improve user experience.

We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, passwords, payment information, government identifiers, account credentials, or other directly identifying personal information to Google Analytics.

You should not place sensitive information in URLs, search queries, form fields, or messages sent through the Site. Sensitive data may be processed by website systems, logs, analytics tools, security tools, hosting systems, email systems, or third-party services depending on how it is submitted.

For more information about analytics and data choices, review our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

Advertising and Ad Security

The Site may display advertising, including advertisements served by Google AdSense or other third-party advertising services. Advertising helps support the Site and keeps the content free to read.

Advertisements do not mean that we endorse the advertiser, product, service, claim, offer, website, download, app, or destination page. You should use caution before clicking ads, downloading software, creating accounts, making purchases, sharing personal information, or relying on claims made by advertisers or third-party websites.

You must not click ads for the purpose of generating revenue, repeatedly click ads, encourage others to click ads, use bots or automated tools to create ad impressions or clicks, generate invalid traffic, interfere with ad delivery, or use deceptive methods involving ads.

If you see an advertisement that appears malicious, misleading, unsafe, or inappropriate, you may report it to us at [email protected]. Please include the page URL, screenshot if available, approximate time, and a brief description of the issue. Do not click suspicious ads to investigate them.

What We Do Not Ask For

DeepSeek USA will not ask you to provide official DeepSeek passwords, API keys, private account tokens, payment card details, government identifiers, medical records, confidential business files, private source code, client data, or regulated data through this Site.

If a page, advertisement, email, message, or third-party website asks for sensitive information while pretending to be DeepSeek USA or official DeepSeek support, treat it with caution and verify the destination carefully.

For official DeepSeek account issues, billing, API access, downloads, app support, privacy requests, or legal notices, use DeepSeek’s official websites, apps, documentation, and support channels.

User Security Responsibilities

You are responsible for protecting your own devices, accounts, credentials, browser, network, and data. When using this Site or any external resource linked from it, you should:

  • Verify that you are visiting the correct website before entering information
  • Avoid sending sensitive information through contact forms or ordinary email
  • Use strong and unique passwords for your own accounts
  • Enable multi-factor authentication where available on third-party services
  • Keep your browser, operating system, and security software updated
  • Review the privacy policy and terms of any external website before using it
  • Verify app publishers, downloads, browser extensions, repositories, and software sources before installing anything
  • Protect API keys, tokens, private files, source code, and confidential business data
  • Confirm official information directly with official sources before making important decisions

External Links and Third-Party Security

The Site may link to external websites, including official DeepSeek pages, app stores, documentation pages, GitHub repositories, Google pages, Cloudflare pages, advertiser websites, support pages, news sources, AI tool websites, and other third-party resources.

We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their security, privacy practices, data handling, downloads, software, claims, ads, support processes, or account systems.

When you leave this Site, the security practices, terms, privacy policy, and cookie policy of the destination website apply.

Security of Official DeepSeek Services

DeepSeek USA does not control the security of official DeepSeek services, official apps, APIs, developer platforms, login systems, billing systems, documentation portals, model services, or support channels.

If you use official DeepSeek services, you should review DeepSeek’s official security information, privacy notices, terms, app-store disclosures, API documentation, and support resources.

Do not send official DeepSeek credentials, API keys, billing details, private prompts, uploaded files, or account information to DeepSeek USA. We cannot secure, recover, delete, export, or manage information held by official DeepSeek services.

Vulnerability Reporting

If you believe you have found a security vulnerability affecting this Site, please report it responsibly by contacting us at [email protected].

When reporting a security concern, please include:

  • The affected page URL or feature
  • A clear description of the issue
  • Steps to reproduce the issue, if safe to share
  • Browser, device, and approximate time of testing, if relevant
  • Screenshots or screen recordings, if they do not expose sensitive information
  • Your contact email if you want us to follow up

Please do not include passwords, API keys, private files, personal information, or data belonging to other users in your report.

Responsible Testing Rules

If you test or report a security issue, you must do so safely, legally, and responsibly. You agree not to:

  • Access, copy, modify, delete, or exfiltrate data that does not belong to you
  • Attempt to access accounts, systems, admin areas, databases, logs, backups, or non-public files without authorization
  • Run destructive tests, denial-of-service tests, high-volume scans, spam attacks, brute-force attacks, malware, or social engineering
  • Use automated tools in a way that degrades, overloads, or disrupts the Site
  • Bypass Cloudflare, hosting controls, authentication, rate limits, or other security measures
  • Publicly disclose a vulnerability before we have had a reasonable opportunity to review and address it
  • Use a security issue to demand payment, threaten disclosure, or pressure the Site

We do not currently operate a bug bounty program and do not promise payment, rewards, credits, public recognition, or a specific response time for vulnerability reports.

Abuse, Spam, and Malicious Activity

We may block, limit, challenge, report, or investigate activity that appears abusive, automated, malicious, fraudulent, disruptive, deceptive, or harmful to the Site, users, advertisers, analytics systems, Cloudflare, hosting providers, or other service providers.

This may include spam, scraping, credential attacks, vulnerability scanning, bot traffic, invalid ad activity, fake traffic, malicious requests, attempts to access restricted areas, or attempts to interfere with site security and performance.

Data Retention and Security Logs

Security-related information may be recorded in server logs, Cloudflare logs, hosting logs, analytics systems, contact form records, email systems, spam-prevention tools, and other operational systems.

These records may include IP address, request data, browser information, device information, time of visit, page URL, referrer, security signals, error data, and similar technical information.

Retention periods may vary depending on provider settings, security needs, technical configuration, backup practices, legal requirements, and operational needs. For more information, review our Privacy Policy.

Children and Sensitive Users

The Site is not directed to children under 13. Children should not submit information through the contact form or email. If you believe a child has sent personal information through this Site, contact us at [email protected].

Users handling sensitive personal, business, client, legal, financial, healthcare, education, employment, government, or regulated data should not rely on this Site as a secure submission or support channel.

No Guarantee of Complete Security

We use reasonable measures to protect the Site, but no website, hosting system, email system, contact form, analytics tool, advertising service, Cloudflare configuration, or third-party integration can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for security issues caused by user devices, user networks, third-party websites, official DeepSeek services, advertisers, external downloads, browser extensions, malware, phishing, social engineering, compromised accounts, or services outside our control.
