Privacy Policy

Effective and last updated: October 1, 2026

This policy explains how RankFire (“we”) collects, uses, discloses and protects information when you visit rankfire.cc, run a free check, create an account or use a paid plan. We do not sell personal information.

1. Information we collect

• The website you submit for a check, and what we read from its public pages (name, services, location, page count, platform).
• Account details from Google Sign-In: name, email address, profile image and Google account identifier.
• Reports, deep-dives you run, properties you save, and content you approve for publishing.
• Billing and subscription records. Card details are handled by our payment provider, not stored by us.
• Security and usage data: hashed IP address for abuse limits, session records, and product analytics events.

2. How we use it

• Run checks and deep-dives, save your reports, and deliver paid publishing and monitoring.
• Authenticate you, keep sessions secure, and prevent abuse (including limiting free checks per website and per IP).
• Process subscriptions and send essential account, billing and service email.
• Understand how the product is used so we can improve it.

3. Google account data

With Google Sign-In we request only identity scopes (basic profile and email) to create or sign in to your account. We do not use Google user data for advertising and do not sell it. Our use of information received from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

4. Service providers

• Cloudflare: hosting, database and network security.
• DataForSEO (via our OpenSEO service): search volumes, rankings and live Google results for the websites and searches you check. Only the domain and search terms are sent.
• Dodo Payments: checkout, subscriptions and billing.
• PostHog, self-hosted by us: product analytics.
• SendHQ: transactional email.
• Google: optional sign-in.

5. Retention

We keep account, report, billing and publishing records while you use RankFire and as long as needed to resolve disputes and meet legal obligations. Anonymous checks are kept for a limited period for caching and abuse prevention.

6. Security

We use encrypted transport, hashed session tokens, revocable sessions, scoped credentials and webhook verification. No service can guarantee absolute security.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you can ask to access, correct, delete or export your data, or object to processing. Email privacy@rankfire.cc. You may also complain to your local data-protection authority.

8. Children

RankFire is a business service and is not directed to children.

9. Changes and contact

We will post changes here with a new date. Questions: privacy@rankfire.cc.
