Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-06-20
Understand how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information.
Information we collect
We collect information you provide directly, such as your name and email address when you sign up, subscribe, or contact us. We also store scan inputs (for example, a website URL or domain) and the resulting report data generated by our analysis.
How we use your information
We use your information to provide the service, generate and display reports, improve analysis quality, secure accounts, and communicate with you. We do not sell your personal data.
Website scanning and report data
When you run a scan, we fetch publicly available resources needed to evaluate AI-readiness (for example: robots.txt rules, page HTML, and related metadata). We generate parameter-level results, evidence, and an overall score.
Robots.txt and restricted sites
We respect robots.txt directives. If scanning is disallowed for a site, we do not generate a report and we may store the domain as restricted to avoid repeated attempts.
Public ranking and visibility
If a report is successfully generated and has a score, the site may appear on public surfaces (for example, Top Friendly4AI) by default. If you are the site owner and want your site removed from public surfaces, contact us and we will handle the request manually.
Data Security
We apply industry-standard security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, changes, disclosure, or loss.
Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies to provide core functionality, understand usage, and measure advertising effectiveness. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time via the 'Cookie Settings' link in the footer. The cookies we use include: (1) Necessary cookies, required for authentication, session management, and security (cannot be disabled); (2) Analytics cookies, which help us understand how visitors interact with our website using Google Analytics (GA4) — only set after you provide consent; (3) Advertising cookies (Microsoft Advertising / Bing UET tag), used for conversion measurement and remarketing via Microsoft's bat.bing.net service — only set after you provide consent. Advertising cookies default to denied until you explicitly accept via the cookie banner or Cookie Settings. You can withdraw consent or opt out of advertising cookies at any time through Cookie Settings.
Third-Party Services
Our platform integrates third-party services for authentication, billing, and analytics. These services have their own privacy practices, which we recommend reviewing separately.
Your Rights
You can request access, correction, or deletion of your personal data, obtain a copy of your information, or object to its processing. To request removal of a scanned site from public surfaces, contact us.
Children's Privacy
Our services are not intended for users under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may periodically update our privacy policy. Significant updates will be communicated clearly through our website.
