Privacy policy

Effective July 18, 2026 · Applies to linksley.com and the Linksley browser extension.

Linksley is a bookmark manager. Our business is subscriptions, not data: we don't sell your information, we don't show third-party ads, and we collect only what the product needs to work.

What we collect

• Account information — your name, email address, and a hashed password (we never store the password itself).
• Your content — the boards, categories, and links (URL + title) you choose to save, and who you share boards with.
• Billing — paid plans are processed by Stripe; card details go to Stripe, not to us. We keep the subscription status.
• Usage basics — sign-in times (used, for example, to warn you before an inactive free workspace is archived) and standard server logs.
• Analytics — if enabled, we use Google Analytics on the website to understand aggregate traffic. It does not read your boards or links.

The browser extension

• It communicates only with linksley.com — your own account — to sign you in, read your boards, and save the pages you explicitly choose to save (their URL and title).
• It reads no page content, tracks no browsing history, injects no ads, and never touches your search results.
• Your sign-in token and a cache of your boards are stored locally in your browser so the popup and new-tab page load instantly.
• The optional bookmark-bar mirror and one-time bookmark import run in your browser at your request; your existing bookmarks are never modified or deleted.

What we never do

• Sell or rent your data to anyone.
• Use your data for anything unrelated to running Linksley.
• Use your data for advertising, profiling, or creditworthiness decisions.

Sharing and service providers

Your boards are visible only to you and the people you share them with. We use a small set of processors to run the service — hosting, Stripe for payments, and our email provider for transactional emails (welcome, password reset, account notices). Each receives only what it needs.

Retention and deletion

Your data stays as long as your account is active. Inactive free workspaces are warned by email, then archived, and eventually deleted. You can delete links, boards, or your whole account at any time; deletion is permanent after the trash retention window.

Your rights

You can access, correct, export, or delete your data. Signed-in users can reach us any time via linksley.com/support — we answer to your account email.

Changes

If this policy changes materially, we'll note it here and update the effective date above.
