Track-Block is designed with privacy as a core principle.
What We Don't Store
- Your URLs or any URL content
- Your browsing history
- Cookies or tracking identifiers
- Any personal information
What We Do Store (Temporarily)
To prevent abuse, we store your IP address for rate limiting purposes only.
- Why: To prevent automated abuse and ensure fair access for all users
- What: Only your IP address and a request counter
- How long: Maximum 24 hours, then automatically deleted
- Where: Stored in Cloudflare KV (edge storage)
Server-Side Processing
All URL unshortening happens on our servers, not in your browser. This means:
- URL shortening services don't see your IP address
- Your browser doesn't connect to tracking domains
- Tracking parameters are stripped before following redirects
- Note: Unique or personalized URLs (e.g., email-specific links) may still be trackable regardless of IP masking
