This Privacy Policy explains how linkbuildingmarket.place (“we”, “us”, the “Marketplace”) collects, uses, shares, and protects your personal data when you use our website and services.

01Who we are
linkbuildingmarket.place is a link-building marketplace that lets you search vetted publisher websites, review their metrics, and order link placements. For the purposes of applicable data protection law (including the EU/UK GDPR), we act as the data controller for the personal data we process about you in connection with the Marketplace.
02Data we collect
Data you provide
- Account & contact details — name, work email, company, and website when you register, request access, or contact us.
- Order data — the target URLs, anchor text, and campaign details you submit for placements.
- Billing data — amounts, invoices, and payment method metadata. Card and payment credentials are processed by our payment providers; we do not store full card numbers.
- Communications — messages you send to support or your account manager.
Data collected automatically
- Usage data — pages viewed, searches run, features used, and referring links.
- Device & log data — IP address, browser type, device identifiers, and timestamps.
- Cookies & similar technologies — see Cookies settings.
03How we use your data
- To provide the Marketplace — run searches, present publisher metrics, process orders, and deliver placements.
- To take payment and issue invoices.
- To communicate with you about your account, orders, and support requests.
- To secure the service, prevent fraud and abuse, and debug issues.
- To improve our features and, where permitted, to send you relevant product updates.
- To comply with legal obligations.
04Legal bases (EEA/UK)
Where GDPR applies, we rely on: performance of a contract (to deliver the service you request); legitimate interests (to secure, operate, and improve the Marketplace); consent (for non-essential cookies and marketing, which you can withdraw at any time); and legal obligation (for tax and compliance records).
05Sharing & disclosure
We share personal data only as needed to run the Marketplace:
- Our operating platform, to fulfil orders and process your account.
- Payment providers (e.g. card processors, PayPal) to take payment.
- Publishers receive only the placement details required to publish your link — not your billing data.
- Service providers for hosting, analytics, email, and customer support, under contract.
- Authorities where required by law, or to protect our rights and users.
We do not sell your personal data.
06Cookies settings
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, measure usage, and — with your consent — personalise content. Essential cookies are always on; you can control the rest below.
| Category | Purpose | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Sign-in, security, cart and checkout. The site cannot function without these. | |
| Analytics | Aggregated usage statistics that help us improve the Marketplace. | |
| Marketing | Measuring campaigns and showing you relevant product updates. |
07Data retention
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above: account and order data for the life of your account and as required for tax and legal records (typically up to 6–7 years for invoices), and non-essential analytics for a shorter period. When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it.
08Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your data; to object to or restrict certain processing; and to withdraw consent. To exercise any right, contact us using the details below. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
09International transfers
We and our providers may process data in countries other than yours. Where we transfer personal data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
10Security
We use technical and organisational measures — including encryption in transit, access controls, and least-privilege practices — to protect your data. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information and to notify you and regulators of breaches where required.
11Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted here with a new “Last updated” date, and where required we will notify you.
