Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle it.

Data We Collect

Account data

When you register: name, email address, and hashed password.

Link analytics

When someone clicks a shortened link, we collect: timestamp, country (from IP geolocation), device type, browser, operating system, and referring URL. IP addresses are hashed and never stored in plain text.

Data Sharing

We do not sell your data. We share data only with:
