Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Linkifier ("we," "us," "our," or the "Platform") collects, uses, discloses, shares, protects, and retains personal and technical data when you access or use our website (linkifier.me), creator pages, analytics dashboards, discovery tools, APIs, and all related services (collectively, the "Services"). By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

Operator: Internet Of The Bots, owned by Leelan Joy Korber.

Last updated: May 30, 2026

1. Scope and Applicability

This policy applies to all users of the Platform, including creators who register accounts and manage link-in-bio pages, visitors who view or interact with those pages, and any third party whose data is processed in connection with the Services. It covers visitor-facing pages, account dashboards, email capture forms, link click tracking, telemetry and analytics reporting, directory and discovery features, AI-powered categorization and content processing, and all integrations with third-party processors.

If you are a creator operating a page on the Platform, you may also act as an independent controller or joint controller of visitor data collected through your page. You are responsible for your own compliance with applicable data protection laws in relation to any personal data you collect or receive through the Services.

3. How We Use Data

4. Legal Bases for Processing (Where Applicable)

Depending on your jurisdiction, our processing of personal data may rely on one or more of the following legal bases:

5. Email Collection, Creator Access, and Shared Responsibility

If a visitor submits an email address or other contact information through a creator's page, that data may be made available to the creator (page owner/controller) for follow-up communication, newsletter distribution, or audience engagement purposes.

The creator receiving this data acts as an independent data controller with respect to their use of visitor-submitted information. Creators are solely responsible for ensuring their outreach complies with applicable laws, including obtaining any necessary consent, honoring unsubscribe requests, and adhering to anti-spam regulations (such as CAN-SPAM, CASL, and GDPR e-privacy requirements).

We maintain suppression and unsubscribe records at the platform level to reduce abuse risk and ensure that visitors who opt out are not re-contacted through our email infrastructure. We may suspend or terminate creator access to email features in cases of misuse or complaints.

6. Link Click Tracking and Redirect Processing

When a visitor clicks a link on a creator page, the click may be routed through our servers before redirecting to the destination URL. During this process, we collect the data described in Section 2.2 (click event metadata, timestamp, referrer, device information, and IP-derived geographic data). This data is used to populate analytics dashboards, detect click fraud or bot activity, and measure link performance.

Creators can view aggregated and, where applicable, per-link click statistics through their dashboard. We do not expose raw visitor IP addresses or personally identifiable visitor information to creators through standard analytics features.

7. Telemetry, Analytics, and Statistical Reporting

We collect telemetry data to measure platform performance, detect anomalies, identify usage trends, and deliver analytics features to creators and platform operators. Telemetry data may include page load performance metrics, API response times, error rates, uptime statistics, and resource utilization data.

We may aggregate, pseudonymize, or anonymize telemetry and analytics data for internal reporting, benchmarking, trend analysis, and product improvement. Aggregated and anonymized data that cannot reasonably be used to identify an individual is not subject to the restrictions of this Privacy Policy.

Raw client telemetry is ordinarily aggregated into summaries and then deleted after aggregation once it is no longer needed for event-level processing. Aggregated summaries may be retained longer for analytics, benchmarking, public statistics, fraud prevention, capacity planning, legal compliance, and dispute resolution.

8. AI and OpenAI-Based Processing

We use artificial intelligence systems, including services provided by OpenAI (via their API), to power various platform features. Specifically, we may transmit the following data to OpenAI or other AI processors:

We access OpenAI services through their API under contractual terms that prohibit OpenAI from using submitted data to train their models (API data usage policy as distinct from consumer product terms). We select API configurations that minimize data retention on the processor side where such options are available.

We do not transmit raw visitor personal data (such as IP addresses, email addresses, or device fingerprints) to AI processors for classification or categorization purposes. AI inputs are limited to creator-published content and platform taxonomy data.

AI systems are inherently probabilistic. Outputs including categories, scores, descriptions, and risk assessments may contain errors, inaccuracies, or biases. All AI-generated outputs are subject to human review and may be adjusted, overridden, or discarded. AI outputs should not be treated as guaranteed factual determinations or final decisions.

We may change AI processors or introduce additional AI services in the future. Any such changes will be reflected in updates to this policy.

9. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell personal data to data brokers. We do not use visitor personal data for Linkifier-owned cross-site advertising profiles. Some disclosures described above, especially creator-configured pixels or advertising tags, may qualify as "sharing" or "selling" under certain state or national privacy laws (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act); see Section 14 for jurisdiction-specific disclosures.

10. Third-Party Links and Services

Creator pages may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, and services. Clicking on such links will direct you away from the Platform to destinations that operate under their own privacy policies and terms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of any third-party sites or services linked from creator pages.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with through links on the Platform.

11. International Data Transfers

The Platform is operated from and data is primarily processed in the United States and the European Union. Your data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence, including countries that may not provide the same level of data protection as your jurisdiction.

Where required by applicable law (including the GDPR), we implement appropriate transfer safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), adequacy decisions, vendor security certifications, and contractual data protection commitments. By using the Services, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer of your data as described in this section, subject to applicable legal protections.

12. Security Measures

We implement administrative, technical, and organizational security measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, destruction, loss, and misuse. These measures include, but are not limited to:

No system is completely secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security, and you acknowledge the inherent risks of transmitting data over the internet and using cloud-based services. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

13. Data Retention

We retain personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including:

Upon account deletion, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable timeframe, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes as described above.

14. Jurisdiction-Specific Rights and Disclosures

14.1 European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland (GDPR)

If you are located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and equivalent local laws:

14.2 California (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), including:

Categories of personal information we collect are described in Section 2. We collect this information for the business and commercial purposes described in Section 3. Categories of third parties with whom we share personal information are described in Section 9.

14.3 Other Jurisdictions

If you are located in a jurisdiction with applicable data protection laws (including but not limited to Brazil's LGPD, Canada's PIPEDA, Australia's Privacy Act, or other state-level US privacy laws), you may have additional rights. We will honor valid requests in accordance with applicable law. Contact us at [email protected] to exercise any applicable rights.

15. Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any data protection rights described in this policy, you may submit a request to [email protected]. Please include sufficient information for us to verify your identity and specify which rights you wish to exercise.

We may require identity verification before processing your request. Verification may involve confirming account ownership through your registered email address or other reasonable means. We will respond to valid requests within the timeframes required by applicable law (typically 30 days under GDPR, 45 days under CCPA).

If we deny a request in whole or in part, we will provide an explanation of the reasons and inform you of any available appeal or complaint mechanisms.

16. Children

The Services are not intended for or directed at children under the age of 13 (or a higher minimum age where required by local law, such as 16 in certain EEA member states). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under these age thresholds.

If we learn or have reason to believe that we have collected personal data from a child below the applicable age threshold without verified parental consent, we will take steps to delete that data as promptly as possible and may restrict or terminate associated accounts. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at [email protected].

17. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals. There is no uniform industry standard for interpreting DNT signals. The Platform does not currently alter its data collection or use practices in response to DNT signals. If a uniform standard is established, we will revisit this position.

18. Data Controller and Processor Roles

For our own platform operations, Linkifier is operated by Internet Of The Bots, owned by Leelan Joy Korber, 9535 Römerweg, Austria. Legal contact: [email protected].

Linkifier acts as the data controller for personal data collected through the Platform for its own operational purposes (account management, platform analytics, security, AI processing, discovery features).

Where a creator collects visitor data through their page (such as email submissions), the creator acts as an independent data controller for their use of that data, and Linkifier acts as a data processor on behalf of the creator for the purpose of facilitating collection and delivery of that data. Creators operating in the EEA or processing EEA resident data may contact us to enter into a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) as required by the GDPR.

19. Automated Decision-Making

We may use automated systems, including AI-based classification and scoring, to categorize profiles, rank content for discovery, detect spam or abuse, and assign quality scores. These automated processes may affect the visibility, ranking, or classification of your content on the Platform.

Where automated decision-making produces legal or similarly significant effects on you, you have the right to request human review, express your point of view, and contest the decision. Contact us at [email protected] to request review of any automated decision.

20. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Linkifier shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to the collection, use, disclosure, or processing of personal data under this Privacy Policy, including but not limited to damages arising from unauthorized access to or alteration of your data, errors in AI-generated outputs, actions taken by creators with visitor-submitted data, or data processed by third-party services linked from creator pages.

This limitation applies regardless of the theory of liability (contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise) and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

21. Indemnification

Creators agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Linkifier and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to the creator's collection, use, storage, or disclosure of visitor personal data obtained through the Platform, including any failure to comply with applicable data protection laws, anti-spam laws, or this Privacy Policy.

22. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or business operations. Changes are effective when posted to the Platform. Where required by law, we will provide advance notice of material changes (such as by email to registered users or by prominent notice on the Platform).

Your continued use of the Services after the posting of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acknowledgment of and agreement to the updated policy. If you do not agree with any changes, you should discontinue use of the Services and may request deletion of your account and data.
