Privacy Policy

ioutbid.lol is built to work without accounts and collects as little data as possible. This policy describes what we do collect and why.

What We Collect

1. The website URL you submit with a bid, and the amounts paid for it. This is the product itself: the domain, its favicon, and its paid total are displayed publicly on the home screen.
2. Payment records. Payments are processed entirely by our payment processor (Stripe). We receive a payment confirmation and a session reference — we never see or store your card number. Any receipt email is handled by the processor.
3. Anonymous visit statistics. To show the visitor counter we count visits using a one-way hash of your IP address and browser signature. The raw IP is not stored, and the hash cannot be reversed into it.
4. Outbound click counts. When you click a placed icon we increment a counter for that domain. The count is stored per domain only — no per-visitor click history exists.

What We Don't Do

• No accounts, no passwords, no profiles.
• No advertising trackers, no analytics cookies, no fingerprinting beyond the anonymous counters above.
• We never sell or share visitor data.

Cookies

The site sets only functional cookies (such as a language preference). No tracking cookies are used.

Third Parties

• Stripe processes payments under its own privacy policy.
• A public favicon service (favicon.im) serves the icons displayed on the phone; your browser requests icons directly from it.
• Our hosting provider processes requests to serve the site.

Data Retention

Bid records (domain, amounts, timestamps) are retained indefinitely — they are the public leaderboard. Anonymous counters are retained as aggregate numbers.

Your Rights

To have a placement or its records removed, or for any privacy request, email [email protected]. We respond within a reasonable time and comply with applicable data-protection law.
