Privacy

How information is used in the services currently available.

Last revised

01Account and submitted information

We process account details, uploaded avatars, reviews and correction submissions to provide these features. Public profiles and approved reviews display their public content. Correction contact emails and review material are used for verification, assessment and follow-up.

02Visits and cookies

Visit records can include IP address, device or browser information, country and city inferred from IP, and visited paths. Failed-request logs include path, IP, status and time. Necessary cookies support sessions and preferences; optional analytics are controlled through the Cookie notice.

03Questions and requests

Email [email protected] for questions about your information or a request to review, correct or remove it. Identify the relevant account or content without sharing your password. We may need to verify your identity and consider applicable record-keeping needs before acting.

04Cookie choices and withdrawal

The Cookie notice lets you choose necessary cookies only or accept optional analytics. Necessary cookies support sign-in, request security and interface preferences. Choosing necessary cookies only does not disable these functions. You can reopen the choice using the Cookie preferences control on this page. The consent preference is configured to last one year. This is the lifetime of that preference, not a retention period for all account or visit records. Clearing browser storage can cause the notice to appear again.

05Third-party services and external links

When Google sign-in is enabled and you choose it, Google provides profile and account information through the sign-in flow. The site also uses service providers for hosting, email delivery and optional analytics. Ahrefs analytics is loaded following analytics consent; Google Analytics may be enabled when configured. Those services can process information under their own terms. Following an external broker or source link takes you to a separate service. Review its privacy information before supplying personal or account data.

06Storage, access and safeguards

Information is stored to support the features you use, security investigations, correction review and the integrity of published records. Staff access is subject to account permissions; a verified email alone does not grant permission to change published data. Retention should be assessed against the purpose of each record, unresolved enquiries, security needs and applicable obligations. A deletion request may require separate consideration of public contributions, review history and backup copies; do not assume that deleting a comment immediately removes every historical copy.

07Your requests and identity verification

You can edit your profile and manage your comments in the account centre. For access, correction, deletion, objection or a consent-related request, contact [email protected] with enough detail to identify the information and the action requested. Availability of particular rights depends on the applicable law and processing circumstances. We may request proportionate evidence of identity before providing private information. Do not include passwords or complete identity documents in an initial email. Where applicable, you may also contact the competent data-protection authority.

08Children, updates and contact

The site concerns financial services and is intended for adults. If you believe a child has supplied personal information, contact us with the relevant account or page details. This notice may be revised when site features or processing practices change. Check the revision date and read any additional notice shown for the feature you use. Privacy enquiries should be sent to [email protected].
