PressPlaced ("us", "we", or "our") operates the PressPlaced website and automated link exchange platform (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit or use our platform.
By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide, improve, and secure our platform for all users.
A. Personal Information You Provide
- Account Credentials: Name, email address, username, and password when you register for an account.
- Profile & Platform Data: Information regarding your websites, domain metrics, content preferences, and communications with other users via our matchmaking system.
- Payment Details: Billing name, address, and payment method details. (Note: Payment transactions are processed directly by our secure payment gateway providers; we do not store raw credit card numbers on our servers.)
B. Technical & Usage Data
- Log Data: IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, and timestamps when you navigate the platform.
- Cookies & Tracking: Session state cookies, preference settings, and local storage mechanisms to keep you signed in and remember your account configuration.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following core purposes:
- Platform Operations: To create your account, operate the automated matching network, manage link submissions, and facilitate communication between publishers.
- Service Personalization: To match your domain inventory and link outreach requests with relevant, niche-aligned platform partners.
- Billing & Account Management: To process transactions, manage subscriptions, and send invoice or transactional notifications.
- Platform Security: To monitor against fraud, unauthorized scraping, abuse, spamming, or violations of our Terms and Conditions.
- Communication: To respond to support queries, issue system status alerts, and send optional platform updates or promotional notifications.
3. Data Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal personal information to third parties. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Platform Interaction: When you publish a website listing or submit a guest post offer on PressPlaced, public domain details and non-sensitive editorial criteria are visible to other verified members to facilitate matching.
- Service Providers: We share necessary data with trusted third-party vendors who perform functions on our behalf (e.g., payment processors, transactional email deliverability services, server hosting providers).
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency).
- Business Transfers: If PressPlaced undergoes a merger, acquisition, re-organization, or sale of assets, user accounts and associated data may be transferred as part of that transaction.
4. Data Retention & Security
- Retention: We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide you with the Service, resolve disputes, and comply with legal obligations.
- Security: We employ industry-standard technical and organizational security measures—including SSL/TLS encryption and restricted administrative access—to protect your personal data. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.
5. Your Data Choices & Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access & Rectification: You can view, update, or edit your account information at any time via your account settings.
- Account Deletion: You may delete your account and request removal of your personal information by reaching out to support or utilizing automated account deletion tools where available.
- Email Preferences: You can unsubscribe from non-essential promotional or updates emails by clicking the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any email. Transactional notifications will still be sent.
6. Third-Party Links & Services
Our platform contains links to external websites, blog posts, and tools owned and operated by third parties. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services.
7. Updates to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to reflect platform updates, legal requirements, or changes in operational practices. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top.
