Privacy Policy
Last updated: 20 / Aug / 2024
The privacy of your data—and it is your data, not ours!—is a big deal to us. In this policy, we lay out what data we collect and why, how your data is handled, and your rights with respect to your data. We promise we never sell your data: never have, never will.
1. What We Collect and Why
Our guiding principle is to collect only what we need. Here’s what that means in practice:
Identity and Access
When you sign up for Shrnkly, we ask for identifying information such as your name and email address. This is so you can personalize your account, and we can send you product updates and essential information.
Billing Information
If you sign up for a paid Shrnkly plan, you will be asked to provide payment information. We use third-party payment processors, so your payment information never touches our servers. We store a record of your transactions for account history and billing support.
Product Interactions
We store the URLs you shorten on our platform as part of providing the service. We keep this content as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we’ll delete the content within 60 days.
General Geolocation Data
We log the IP address used when you sign up for security purposes. We also log account access by IP address to prevent fraud and enhance security.
Website Interactions
We collect information about your browsing activity on our site for analytics purposes, such as conversion rate testing and new product design experiments.
Anti-Bot Assessments
We use CAPTCHA to protect our site from automated abuse and to ensure that signups and actions are performed by real users.
2. When We Access or Disclose Your Information
We only access your data under limited circumstances:
- To provide services: We use third-party processors to help operate Shrnkly. They are bound by strict data protection requirements.
- With your permission: If you ask for support or need help, we might need to access your account with your explicit permission.
- For legal reasons: If required by law, we may disclose your information to comply with legal obligations.
3. Your Rights with Respect to Your Information
You have rights regarding your data, including the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information. If you wish to exercise these rights, please contact us at contact@shrnk.ly.
4. How We Secure Your Data
All data is encrypted via SSL/TLS when transmitted from our servers to your browser. We also employ industry-standard measures to protect data at rest.
5. Data Retention
We keep your information only as long as necessary to provide our services and comply with legal obligations. If you delete your account, your data will be purged within 60 days.
6. Location of Site and Data
Shrnkly is operated in Australia, and any information you provide to us will be stored in Australia. By using our site, you consent to this transfer.
7. Changes and Questions
We may update this policy as needed to comply with relevant regulations. If we make significant changes, we will notify you. If you have any questions or concerns about this policy, please contact us at contact@shrnk.ly.
