Privacy Policy
Effective date: January 1, 2026
Overview
Plinr ("we", "us", or "our") operates plinr.com — an SEO planning tool for small businesses. We take your privacy seriously. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it.

Data We Collect
We collect only what's necessary to deliver the service:
- Account information — your email address and password (hashed) when you sign up.
- Website URL — the URL you submit for SEO analysis.
- Usage data — pages visited, features used, and interaction events (via analytics).
- Payment data — billing details processed by Stripe. We never store your full card number.
- Technical data — IP address, browser type, device type, and referring URL, collected automatically in server logs.
How We Use Your Data

- To authenticate your account and maintain your session.
