Privacy Policy

1. Overview

LinkedViewer ("we," "us," or "our") operates the LinkedViewer website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

2. Information We Process

When you visit LinkedViewer, we and our service providers may process technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, approximate location, referring page, pages viewed, and timestamps. We use this information to operate and secure the site, understand aggregate usage, diagnose problems, and measure advertising performance.

We do not require an account and do not ask for your LinkedIn credentials. If you contact us by email, we receive the information you include so we can respond to your request.

3. How Lookups Work

When you submit a LinkedIn URL, our server makes a one‑time fetch of the publicly available profile page and extracts structured metadata. The extracted data is sent directly to your browser and is not saved as a searchable profile database or indexed by LinkedViewer. Standard security and infrastructure logs may temporarily include request metadata, as described above.

4. Analytics, Advertising, and Cookies

LinkedViewer uses Google Analytics to understand site usage and Google AdSense to serve and measure advertising. Google and its partners may use cookies, local storage, IP addresses, and similar technologies to collect usage information, prevent fraud, measure ads, and personalize advertising where permitted. Their processing is governed by their own policies.

Learn more in our Cookie Policy, review how Google uses data from partner sites, or manage personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings. Where required, a consent message provides additional controls before non-essential cookies are used.

5. Service Providers and Disclosure

Hosting, security, analytics, and advertising providers process limited information on our behalf or under their own terms. We may also disclose information when required by law, to prevent abuse or fraud, or to protect the rights and safety of LinkedViewer, our users, or others. We do not sell lists of profile lookups or contact information.

6. Retention and Security

We use industry-standard security measures, including HTTPS encryption and access controls. Operational logs are retained only as long as reasonably necessary for security, reliability, and legal obligations. Analytics and advertising providers apply their own retention periods.

7. Children's Privacy

LinkedViewer is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

8. Your Choices and Rights

You can limit cookies through your browser settings and control personalized Google ads using the link above. Depending on where you live, you may also have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal information. To make a privacy request, contact us through our Contact page.

9. International Processing

Our providers may process information in countries other than your own. Those countries may have different data-protection laws. Providers are responsible for using appropriate safeguards where required.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
