Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 15, 2025

At RegistryReveal.com, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information in relation to our website and Chrome Extension.

1. Who We Are
RegistryReveal.com is a non-commercial service that helps users check domain name availability. We do not monetize links and operate as a non-trader under EU law.

2. What Data We Collect

• Website Analytics:
  We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized traffic data such as page visits, user interactions, and browser types. This data does not personally identify users.

• Chrome Extension:
  The extension listens for DNS-related errors and redirects you to RegistryReveal.com. When a DNS error occurs, only the URL that caused the error and the error type are sent to our server as part of the redirect query parameters. No other browsing data, browsing history, or personal information is collected or transmitted. The extension does not use cookies or any form of persistent tracking.

• Server Logs:
  Like most websites, we maintain server logs for security and operational purposes, which may include IP addresses, timestamps, and request details.

3. How We Use Your Data
We use collected data to:

• Analyze website performance.

• Provide and improve our domain-checking tools.

• Ensure proper functionality of the Chrome extension.

4. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your data with third parties.
Google Analytics data is shared with Google under their Privacy Policy.

5. Cookies
We use cookies only for analytics purposes on our website. The Chrome extension itself does not use cookies or persistent tracking mechanisms. You can disable cookies via your browser settings.

6. Legal Basis (EU GDPR)
We rely on legitimate interest to process anonymized usage data.
We do not collect any personal information unless explicitly provided by you (e.g., via a contact form).

7. Data Retention
We retain analytics and server logs for a maximum of 12 months, unless required longer for security or legal reasons.

8. Your Rights (EU Residents)
You may request:

• Access to any personal data we may hold (typically none).

• Rectification or erasure of your data.

• Restriction or objection to processing.

Please contact: privacy@registryreveal.com

9. Children
Our services are not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.

10. Open Source and Transparency
Our Chrome extension is fully open source. This allows users and privacy auditors to inspect the code and verify that no additional data collection or tracking occurs.

11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated effective date.
