Privacy

We store the URL or handle you entered, the amount you bid, and your email address. The email is used to send you the checkout link, a receipt, and alerts when someone outbids you or takes a rank you're watching. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

Links go through a redirect so clicks can be counted — that number is published next to every listing and is what bidders are paying for.

We do not store your IP address. We store a one-way hash of your IP and browser, salted and regenerated every day, purely so the same person clicking twice in an hour isn't counted twice. Because the salt rotates daily, that value cannot be used to follow anyone over time or matched back to a person. We also record the referring website and country.

We use Google Analytics to understand how people find and use the site. It sets cookies in your browser and sends Google information about your visit — pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser — which Google processes under its own privacy policy.

This is separate from the click counting described above. Click counts are ours and never leave our database; Google Analytics is a third party and does see visit data.

You can opt out with Google's browser add-on, or by blocking analytics cookies in your browser.

No advertising trackers, no retargeting pixels, no selling or sharing of personal data, no profiling for ads. Your snipe-watch list is kept in your own browser, not on our servers.

Card payments are handled entirely by Stripe. Card details never reach our servers and we never see them. Stripe processes that data under its own privacy policy.

Click records are kept in aggregate indefinitely, since published totals are the product. Raw click rows and rank history are pruned regularly. Email addresses are kept until you ask us to remove them.

You can request a copy of your data or its deletion by emailing hello@rankweb.lol.
