Nilibio Privacy Policy: How We Use Your Personal Data

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly when you create a Nilibio account, including your email address, chosen username, and any profile content you add (bio, links, profile picture). We also collect usage data automatically : such as pages visited, links clicked, device type, browser, and IP address : to operate and improve the service.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to create and manage your account, deliver the Nilibio service, provide analytics to profile owners about their visitors, send important service communications (password resets, policy updates), detect and prevent fraud or abuse, and improve and develop new features. We do not use your personal data to serve third-party advertising.

3. Analytics and Visitor Data

When someone visits a Nilibio public profile page, we record aggregated analytics data (page views, link clicks, traffic sources, country-level location) and attribute it to the profile owner's dashboard. Individual visitor data is anonymised and never sold to third parties. Profile owners can see aggregate statistics only : they cannot identify specific visitors.

4. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share data with trusted service providers who help us operate the platform (hosting, email delivery, error tracking) under strict confidentiality agreements. We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of Nilibio and its users.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Nilibio uses cookies and similar technologies in two categories only. Strictly necessary cookies are required to operate the service and are set on the basis of our legitimate interest in delivering it. Analytics are optional and are only activated once you give your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR); until you do, no analytics script is loaded. We do not use advertising or profiling cookies, and we never share this data with ad networks.

Name	Type	Category	Purpose	Retention
nilibio_session	Cookie	Strictly necessary	Keeps you signed in to your dashboard. Encrypted and HTTP-only.	30 days
nilibio_cookie_consent	Cookie	Strictly necessary	Stores your cookie choice and the date you made it, so we do not ask again on every visit.	6 months
Umami analytics	No cookie	Analytics (consent required)	Aggregated audience measurement: pages viewed, referrer, country, device type. Umami is cookieless: it stores no identifier on your device and derives an anonymous visitor hash server-side that cannot be used to identify you or follow you across other websites.	Nothing stored on your device
umami.disabled	Local storage	Strictly necessary	Written only if you refuse analytics, so the measurement stays switched off.	Until you clear your browser storage

You can accept or refuse analytics at any time, and withdrawing your consent is as easy as giving it: use the button below, or the cookie icon at the bottom right of any page. Refusing analytics has no effect on the features available to you. Note that visit statistics shown to profile owners (see section 3) are aggregated server-side from request data and do not rely on cookies. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but removing the session cookie will sign you out of your dashboard.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account remains active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, export, restrict, or delete your personal data, and to object to processing based on our legitimate interest. Where we rely on your consent : as we do for analytics : you may withdraw it at any time without giving a reason and without affecting your use of the service (see section 5). To exercise any of these rights, contact us at linksmicom@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days. Users in the European Economic Area also have the right to lodge a complaint with their national data protection authority.

8. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS), hashed passwords, and access controls to protect your data. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information against unauthorised access, disclosure, or destruction.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email or by displaying a notice in your dashboard. Continued use of Nilibio after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
