Privacy Policy

We collect information you provide directly — such as your name, email address, and payment details when you create an account or subscribe to a plan. We also collect information automatically when you use the Service, including IP addresses, browser type, device identifiers, and usage data such as links created and clicks received.

We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, and improve the Service; process transactions and send related information; send technical notices and support messages; respond to comments and questions; and monitor and analyze usage trends to improve your experience.

When someone clicks a Shortify link, we collect aggregate analytics data including click counts, referring URLs, device types, browser information, and approximate geographic location derived from IP addresses. This data is anonymized and used to power the analytics dashboard shown to link owners.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to maintain session state, remember preferences, and gather analytics. You can control cookie behavior through your browser settings, though disabling certain cookies may affect Service functionality.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with third-party vendors and service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as payment processing, data analysis, email delivery, hosting, and customer service. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of Shortify and its users.

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Service and fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time.

We take reasonable measures — including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security reviews — to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no security system is impenetrable.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you. You may also have the right to object to or restrict certain processing, or to request data portability. To exercise these rights, contact us through the support channels in the Service.

Shortify is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided personal information, we will delete it promptly.

Shortened links may point to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. We take steps to ensure adequate protections are in place for such transfers in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the 'Last updated' date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

If you have questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please contact us through the support channels available within the Service. We aim to respond within 2 business days.
