1. Introduction

At o4click, we provide a zero-friction link shortening service. We do not require registration or personal accounts, and we are committed to protecting the privacy of both our creators and their audiences.

2. Data Processing & Analytics

When a link is shortened or clicked, we collect anonymous technical data to provide analytics to our users. We do not store full IP addresses in a way that can identify you; they are used only for transient geographic lookup and then anonymized. This data includes:

• Device Information: Device type (e.g., Desktop, Mobile) and Operating System (e.g., Windows, iOS).
• Geography: Country-level location derived from the anonymized IP data.
• Referrer Data: The site from which the click originated, if available.

We do not collect or store personal identifiers such as names, email addresses, or precise GPS locations.

3. Cookies & Tracking

o4click itself does not use first-party tracking cookies for its core functionality. However, our third-party partners (such as Adsterra) may use cookies, web beacons, or other browser identifiers to serve relevant advertisements and prevent fraud. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings.

4. Third-Party Advertising

We use third-party advertising companies (such as Adsterra) to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings or by visiting www.aboutads.info.

5. Data Security

Although we do not store personal data, we use industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS) to ensure that the links you create and the data processed on our site remain secure during transmission.

6. URL Safety & Security Scanning

To protect our users and the public from malicious links, every URL submitted to our service is programmatically scanned using Google's Web Risk API before it is shortened. This is an automated process designed to prevent the creation of links to unsafe websites, such as those containing malware or phishing schemes. During this process, the URL you provide is sent to Google for evaluation. You can learn more about this service by visiting the Google Web Risk documentation.
