Information We Collect

When you use Studynetharilune's technical SEO platform, we collect various types of information to provide you with personalized services and improve your experience. The information we gather falls into several categories, each serving specific purposes in delivering our comprehensive SEO analysis and recommendations.

We also collect information through cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies. This data helps us understand how you interact with our platform, identify technical issues, and personalize your experience based on your preferences and usage patterns.

How We Use Your Information

Your information serves multiple purposes within our technical SEO platform ecosystem. We use collected data to deliver personalized SEO analysis, generate comprehensive reports, and provide actionable recommendations tailored to your specific website performance and optimization needs.

We analyze website data you submit to identify technical SEO issues, performance bottlenecks, and optimization opportunities. This includes crawling analysis, site speed evaluation, mobile responsiveness testing, structured data validation, and comprehensive technical audits that form the core of our service offering.

Additionally, we use aggregated and anonymized data to improve our algorithms, develop new features, conduct research on SEO trends, and enhance our platform's capabilities. This helps us stay current with search engine algorithm updates and provide cutting-edge technical SEO insights to all our users.

Data Sharing and Third Parties

Studynetharilune maintains strict data sharing policies to protect your privacy while delivering comprehensive technical SEO services. We work with carefully selected third-party service providers who assist in platform operations, data processing, and service delivery under strict confidentiality agreements.

We never sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. Data sharing occurs only when necessary for service delivery, legal compliance, or with your explicit consent. All third-party partners must adhere to comparable privacy standards and data protection measures.

Data Security and Protection

Protecting your data is fundamental to our operations. We implement comprehensive security measures including encryption, access controls, regular security audits, and incident response procedures to safeguard your personal information and website data from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse.

Our security framework includes SSL/TLS encryption for data transmission, AES-256 encryption for data storage, multi-factor authentication for account access, regular penetration testing, and continuous monitoring for security threats. We maintain SOC 2 compliance and follow industry best practices for data protection.

While we implement robust security measures, no system is completely immune to risks. We continuously monitor for vulnerabilities, update our security protocols, and maintain incident response procedures to address any potential security events promptly and transparently.

Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your data only as long as necessary to provide services, comply with legal obligations, and fulfill legitimate business purposes. Our retention policies balance service quality with privacy protection, ensuring data is not kept longer than required.

Account information and subscription data are retained for the duration of your active subscription plus 12 months for billing and support purposes. Website analysis data is retained for 24 months to enable historical comparisons and trend analysis within your account dashboard.

Usage analytics and platform interaction data are retained for 18 months in identifiable form, then converted to anonymized aggregated data for service improvement purposes. Technical logs and security data are retained for 12 months to ensure platform security and troubleshooting capabilities.

Upon account closure or deletion request, we initiate data removal within 30 days, though some information may be retained longer if required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or regulatory compliance.

International Data Transfers

Studynetharilune operates globally and may transfer your data across international boundaries to provide our technical SEO services. We ensure all international transfers comply with applicable data protection laws and maintain appropriate safeguards to protect your privacy rights.

For transfers outside South Africa, we implement Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy decisions, or other approved transfer mechanisms to ensure your data receives equivalent protection regardless of location. Our cloud infrastructure partners maintain certifications and compliance with international privacy frameworks.

We regularly review our data transfer practices and update our safeguards to reflect evolving international privacy regulations and requirements. If you have concerns about international data transfers, please contact us for specific information about how your data is protected.
