Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to URL Detector, a web application designed to protect you from phishing scams by analyzing URLs in real-time. At URL Detector, your privacy and security are our top priorities. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data (or lack thereof) while using our service, ensuring that you can browse safely on mobile or desktop.

2. Data Collection and Usage

URL Detector does not collect or store any personal data. It analyzes URLs you submit to detect potential phishing risks but does not transmit any personal information to external servers. We may use third-party services (e.g., Google Safe Browsing) to verify site safety, in which case only the URL is shared for this purpose. Additionally, URLs may be saved temporarily for analysis, reporting, and logging purposes to improve our service, but they are not linked to any personally identifiable information and are securely deleted after processing.

3. No Collection of Personal Data

We do not collect, store, or process any personal data, including but not limited to:

• Your name, address, or other identifying information.
• Passwords or other sensitive credentials.
• Email addresses, unless you voluntarily contact us (see Section 11).

For authentication purposes (e.g., accessing future premium features), we use a one-time password (OTP) system, ensuring that no passwords are ever stored.

4. Email Safety

If you choose to contact us via email (e.g., for support), the safety of your email address is in your hands. We do not store your email address after responding to your query, and we will never use it for marketing or share it with third parties.

5. Free Service with Potential Premium Features

URL Detector is currently a free service. In the future, we may introduce premium features (e.g., advanced reporting, higher analysis quotas) for a fee. If you opt into premium features, any payment information will be handled securely through a third-party payment processor (e.g., Stripe), and we will not store your payment details.

6. User Responsibilities

While URL Detector aims to provide accurate and timely warnings about phishing risks, no system is perfect. Users remain responsible for their own online safety and should exercise caution when clicking links or entering sensitive information. The developers are not liable for any issues, losses, or damages arising from the use of this Service, including reliance on its analysis.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

This Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee that it will detect every phishing attempt or operate without errors. You use the Service at your own discretion and risk.

8. Limitation of Liability

In no event shall URLDetector.com, its developers, or affiliates be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages resulting from the use or inability to use the Service, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

9. Jurisdiction and Indemnity

By using this Service, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless URLDetector.com, its developers, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your use of the Service. Any legal disputes shall be governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia, and settled under its jurisdiction.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy at any time, with or without prior warning or notification, to improve functionality, add new features, or ensure compliance with legal and security requirements. Any changes will be reflected on this page, and the "Last Updated" date will be revised accordingly. Your continued use of the Service after such updates indicates your acceptance of the revised terms. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
