Privacy Policy

1. Overview & Data Transparency

At Bidranks, we believe in radical transparency and minimal data collection. We do not sell your personal information, nor do we track your browsing activity across the web. This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect when you submit a website, bid on a rank, or browse our public leaderboard.

2. Information We Collect

• Listing Information: Submitted website URLs, domain names, titles, descriptions, and brand favicons displayed on the public leaderboard.
• Payment & Billing Details: All monetary transactions are processed directly through secure, PCI-DSS compliant payment gateways (Dodo Payments). We never store or transmit your raw credit card or bank details.
• Founder Profile Information: Optional contact email addresses, 𝕏/Twitter handles, or custom messages provided during listing customization.
• Telemetry & Analytics: Aggregate counts of outbound click redirects and anonymous page visitor counts to compute live leaderboard statistics.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use the information we collect solely to:

• Render and maintain your listing's rank on the public leaderboard.
• Deliver automated outbid notification alerts and listing management links.
• Prevent spam, fraudulent transactions, and prohibited content submissions.
• Send weekly leaderboard digests to users who opt-in to our newsletter.

4. Data Security & Retention

We apply industry-standard 256-bit encryption for all data in transit. Listing details remain publicly listed on the leaderboard until modified or removed by the listing owner or our moderation team.
