PRIVACY
LinkTransparency does not:
- Collect personal information or create a profile of you
- Require an account, email, or sign-up
- Sell data to anyone
By default, we collect anonymous, aggregate telemetry (redirect counts, which tracking parameters exist, domain categories) to improve the product and publish transparency reports. No URLs or browsing history are stored.
You can disable telemetry entirely in settings.
