Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
1. What we collect
When you use tapurl.io, we collect the following data:
- Account data — email address and password hash when you register.
- Link data — the original URLs you shorten and the short codes we generate.
- Click data — IP address, User-Agent, referrer, country (via GeoIP), device type, OS, and timestamp for each redirect. If you pass SubID parameters (sub1–sub8), those are stored too.
- Conversion data — payout and status received via postback from affiliate networks.
2. How we use your data
We use collected data exclusively to provide the service: redirecting clicks, showing analytics, and detecting abuse. We do not sell your data to third parties and do not use it for advertising.
3. Cookies
We use a single HttpOnly cookie (access_token) to keep you logged in. No advertising or tracking cookies are set.
4. Data retention
Account data is retained for as long as your account exists. Click and conversion data is retained for the lifetime of the associated link. Guest links (created without an account) expire after 24 hours; their click data is deleted within 7 days.
5. Third-party services
We use MaxMind GeoLite2 for country detection — IP addresses are looked up locally and never sent to MaxMind. No other third-party analytics or tracking services are used.
6. Your rights
You can delete your account and all associated data at any time by contacting us at the address below. We will process deletion requests within 30 days.
7. Contact
