What we collect and why

  • Account data: your name, email address, password (stored hashed) and team memberships, to provide your account; and whether you asked for our tips emails, and when.
  • Business data: the business you monitor (name, website, location, competitors, markets, questions), to produce your reports. To write fixes and pages we read the text of your public web pages, and we check them daily to see whether a fix is published.
  • Report data: the answers AI assistants give to our questions, and the websites they cite.
  • Billing data: handled by Stripe; we store your subscription status and invoice references, never your card details.
  • Free check: the business name, town, website and question you enter, plus a one-way hash of your IP address to limit abuse. We do not store the IP address itself. If you ask for the fix for your answer, we keep your email address to send it and follow up about it, and send occasional tips only if you tick that box; you can ask us to delete it at any time.
  • Technical data: server logs and error reports needed to run and secure the service.
  • Your country: looked up from your IP address in a copy of MaxMind's GeoLite2 database on our own server, to show prices in your currency. Nothing is sent to MaxMind and the result is not stored.

Service providers
