Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

1. What we collect

When you use the free audit tool, we analyze the URL you submit. We do not require an account or email address for the free tier. We collect: the URL analyzed, the timestamp of the analysis, and your approximate IP address (for rate limiting only — 3 scans/day/IP on the free tier). We do not store your analysis results permanently — free tier results are cached for 6 hours, then deleted automatically.

2. Cookies and analytics

We use Vercel Analytics for anonymous usage statistics. No personal data is transmitted. We do not use advertising trackers, third-party cookies, or any form of behavioral tracking.

3. Data from analyzed websites

When you submit a URL, we crawl that webpage to compute your GEO score. We do not store the full content of crawled pages. We only store aggregate scoring signals for caching purposes, and these expire within 6 hours.

4. Third-party services

We use the following third-party APIs to compute your score: Anthropic (Claude Sonnet / Haiku) for AI analysis and recommendations, DataForSEO for domain age and authority data, and Perplexity API for citation testing. Each of these services has their own privacy policy. We transmit only the analyzed URL and do not share any personal information with them.

5. Your rights

You can request deletion of any cached data associated with your IP or domain by emailing hello@winek.ai. We will respond within 48 hours. Under GDPR, you also have the right to access, rectify, and object to processing of your data.
