Last updated: July 5, 2025

At Auditzo, we take your privacy seriously and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit or use our GDPR, CCPA, and CIPA auditing platform. Please read this policy carefully to understand how we handle your personal information.

1. Information We Collect

When you use our platform, we collect various types of information to provide you with our auditing services. We categorize the information as follows:

• Website URLs: You provide us with the URLs of websites you wish to audit. This data is essential for performing audits on the privacy practices of the websites.
• HAR Files and Tracking Data: We analyze HAR (HTTP Archive) files, which contain detailed information about your web traffic and interactions with websites, including third-party scripts and tracking technologies.
• Non-personally identifiable metadata: We collect aggregated metadata for research and improvement purposes. This helps us enhance our auditing systems, detection capabilities, and recommendations.

2. How We Use Your Data

We use the information we collect to deliver our auditing services and improve our platform. The key purposes include:

• Generating Automated Audit Reports: We process the data you provide (URLs, HAR files, tracking data) to generate detailed audit reports that assess the privacy compliance of the submitted websites.
• Identifying Privacy Violations: Our platform identifies privacy violations such as unauthorized data collection or sharing without consent under GDPR, CCPA, and CIPA.
• Improving Detection Models and Recommendations: The information we collect, including aggregated metadata and audit results, helps us improve the accuracy of our detection models and refine our recommendations.

3. Data Storage & Security

We understand the importance of protecting your data. Here’s how we secure it:

• Secure Cloud Storage: Your data is stored securely in the cloud using industry-standard encryption protocols, ensuring protection from unauthorized access.
• Data Retention: We retain your data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy. Once the data is no longer required for auditing or improving our models, we securely delete it.
• No Selling or Renting Data: We do not sell, rent, or share your audit data with third parties for marketing purposes. We respect your privacy and confidentiality.

4. Your Rights

Depending on your location and applicable privacy laws (such as GDPR for users in the European Union or CCPA for users in California), you have the following rights regarding your data:

• Access to Your Data: You have the right to request access to the data we hold about you. You can request a copy of your data or information on how it is being used.
• Deletion of Your Data: You can request that we delete your data. Once we verify your request, we will remove your personal data from our systems, unless required for legal or compliance purposes.
• Correction or Portability: You can request correction of inaccurate data or ask to have your data transferred to another service (data portability).
• Object to Processing or Withdraw Consent: You can withdraw your consent at any time or object to certain types of processing, such as direct marketing.

5. Third-Party Links and Services

Our platform may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not operated by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies before submitting any personal information.

• Third-Party Trackers: Some of the websites you audit may include links or embedded content from third parties, which may use cookies or tracking technologies. We are not responsible for how these third parties handle your data.
