Your data is yours.

Who we are

Link In Comments is based in California. We provide a service that saves, summarises, and organises links. You can reach us at hello@linkincomments.com.

What we collect

• Email address. Collected when you sign up or sign in. Used only to send you a magic link to access your account.
• Links you save. The URLs and any notes you add. This is the core of the service.
• Content fetched from those links. We fetch and process the content at each URL in order to generate a summary and topic tags on your behalf.
• Usage data. We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics tool that does not use cookies and does not collect personally identifiable information. It gives us aggregate data (page views, referrers) with no individual tracking.

How we use your data

• To provide the service: saving links, generating summaries, and letting you search and retrieve them.
• To send you authentication emails (magic links).
• To improve the product based on aggregate, anonymised usage patterns.

What we don't do

• We do not sell your data to anyone, ever.
• We do not share your data with third parties for advertising purposes.
• We do not sell or share your data. We may use aggregated, anonymised insights (e.g. most-saved topics across all users) to improve the product — never linked to you personally.
• Your library is private by default. We do not make your saved links visible to other users unless you choose to share them.

Data storage

Your data is stored using Supabase, which uses infrastructure hosted on AWS in the United States. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We retain your data for as long as you have an account. If you delete your account, your data is deleted within 30 days.

Third-party services

• Supabase — authentication and database hosting.
• Plausible Analytics — privacy-preserving analytics with no cookies or personal data.
• AI summarisation providers — link content is sent to an AI provider to generate summaries. Content is not used to train models under our agreements with these providers.

Your rights (California residents — CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA):

Cookies

We do not use tracking cookies. We use a single session cookie for authentication purposes, which is necessary for the service to function.
