Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-11-06
EMDChecker works without accounts. This policy explains what little data we process and why.
1. What we collect
Your queries and settings: the brand or niche, additional words, query type, zones, domain language, and the number of domains found. We use them to run the check and to improve the tool.
A one-way hash of your IP address (salted SHA-256, not the IP itself) — to enforce free-use limits and fight abuse.
Clicks on the “Register” and AffBulk buttons, together with the domain clicked and the IP hash — to measure how useful the tool is.
2. What we do not collect
No names, e-mail addresses or payment data. No advertising or third-party tracking cookies.
3. Cookies and local storage
NEXT_LOCALE cookie — remembers the interface language you chose (1 year).
localStorage “theme” — remembers light or dark theme. Both are needed only for convenience and never leave your browser except the language cookie sent to our server.
4. Third parties
To check a domain, only the domain name itself is sent to public DNS resolvers (Cloudflare, Google), domain registries (RDAP/WHOIS) and, if configured, a registrar API.
Hosting and storage: Vercel (hosting and server logs) and Upstash Redis (cache of domain statuses and limit counters).
Following the “Register” link takes you to the registrar's site, which has its own privacy policy.
5. Retention
Domain statuses are cached for 10 minutes to 7 days. Limit counters live up to 24 hours. Server logs are kept according to the hosting provider's retention period.
6. Your rights and contact
Because we do not store data that identifies you directly, there is usually nothing to export or delete. If you have a privacy question or request, use the Contact link in the footer.
