TL;DR
How is sensitive Pinecone information handled?
We never log or store any data inputted or generated while using Pinecone UI. Any user inputted information is only stored in your browser's local storage (so you won't need to re-input settings after refreshing).
How is sensitive Pinecone information handled?
The Pinecone API CORS Policy does not allow clients to make requests directly from browsers. Therefore requests must be proxied through a server, in this case our app's Next.js api route. During this process your sensitive information is never logged or stored.
As we're well aware of the sensitive nature of database access, we've been exploring 2 solutions that would remove the need to proxy credentials through our servers:
- • Port Pinecone UI to be a Desktop app
- • Users can host their own proxy and connect it to Pinecone UI
If either of those are interesting to you, please let us know on our feedback form.
