This Privacy Policy explains what data PageChecks collects and how we use it when you access
the site globally.
1. Information We Process
We process the information you submit to run tools, such as URLs, paths, robots rules, structured
data, or other text you provide for analysis.
We also process technical request data used for service protection and operations, including IP-derived
request context and user-agent strings.
If analytics is enabled, we send usage events to a web analytics service (for example: tool usage, tool
errors, and copy actions) along with event parameters such as tool name and hostname.
2. Local Browser Storage
PageChecks currently uses browser localStorage for:
theme to remember light/dark preference.
We do not currently set first-party marketing cookies through PageChecks application code.
3. Shared Audit Data
If you choose to share an SEO audit, we store and publish a domain-level shared record, including:
domain, audit ID, audited URL, score, issue counts, crawled page count, summary text, timestamps,
and share indexability metadata.
Shared audits are publicly accessible at /audit/{domain} and may be indexed by search engines
when marked indexable.
To request removal of a shared audit, contact us at

4. How We Use Data
Run and return tool analyses you request.

Operate and improve performance, reliability, and product quality.
Understand aggregate usage patterns when analytics is enabled.
5. Third-Party Services
We use third-party providers to deliver features, including infrastructure, analytics, and audit
integrations.
When tool features require external lookups, submitted URLs and related request data may be sent to
those providers to complete the requested analysis.
6. Retention
LocalStorage values remain until you clear browser storage or overwrite them.
In-memory rate-limit and short-lived cache entries expire automatically.
Shared audit records remain until replaced or removed.
7. International Access
PageChecks is available globally, and data may be processed in multiple jurisdictions depending on
hosting and service providers.
By using the service, you understand that cross-border processing may occur where permitted by law.
