Privacy Policy
Your privacy is our priority. Last updated: March 13, 2026
1. Introduction & Agreement
Welcome to Shortfy.xyz. This Privacy Policy is a legally binding document that outlines our commitment to protecting the digital identity of our users. As a provider of a fast & smart URL shortener, we process millions of data points. This document explains what we do with that information to maintain a transparent link management platform.
By accessing Shortfy services, you hereby acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the data collection protocols described in this policy. We reserve the right to modify this documentation at any time to reflect changes in global privacy laws (such as GDPR, CCPA, and LGPD).
01Comprehensive Data Collection
Shortfy follows the principle of Data Minimization. We only collect the bare minimum information required to provide our free and unlimited tools.
User-Provided Data
This includes email addresses, names, and encrypted passwords provided during registration. We use this data to authenticate your identity and provide access to your private link dashboard and track clicks history.
Metadata Tracking
Every time a branded shortcode is clicked, we log the timestamp, the referring domain, and the device type. This allows users to view analytics while ensuring the privacy of the individual clicker is maintained via anonymization.
02Cookie Policy & AdTech Disclosure
Cookies are essential for the technical functionality of our platform. We use them for session persistence and security verification.
Third-Party Advertising & Google AdSense
Shortfy partners with third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense. Google uses cookies (such as the DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites on the internet.
These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology in their respective advertisements and links that appear on Shortfy.xyz, which are sent directly to your browser. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs.
03Your Rights Under Global Law (GDPR/CCPA)
Whether you are a resident of the European Union or California, we provide a unified standard of data rights:
The Right to Access: You can request a digital copy of all personal data we hold about you at any time.
The Right to Erasure: You can request the permanent deletion of your account and all associated link management data from our servers.
The Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to object to how we process your data for marketing or analytical purposes.
04Data Lifecycle & Retention
We do not store data longer than necessary. Account information is retained as long as the account remains active. Redirection logs for unlimited link management are kept for 90 days for analytical purposes and then automatically purged or aggregated into non-identifiable statistics.
05Child Privacy & COPPA Compliance
Shortfy.xyz does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If a parent or guardian believes that Shortfy.xyz has in its database the personal information of a child under the age of 13, please contact us immediately, and we will use our best efforts to promptly remove such information.
Technical Safeguards
To protect your information, we utilize AES-256 bit encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 for data in transit. Our infrastructure is hosted on secure, audited data centers with 24/7 monitoring to prevent unauthorized access.
