This policy explains what information ServerSearch collects and how we use it.

Information we collect

We may collect:

  • Email addresses when you subscribe to the newsletter, submit a deal, or write a provider review
  • Submission content such as deal details, host information, and review text
  • Basic technical data such as browser type and hashed IP address for abuse prevention

We do not sell your personal information.

How we use information

We use collected information to:

  • Verify email addresses before publishing submissions or reviews
  • Send newsletter emails you signed up for
  • Review and moderate user-submitted content
  • Operate, secure, and improve the site

Email verification

Deal submissions and provider reviews require email verification. We send one-time codes or confirmation links to the address you provide.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to the newsletter, we store your email and preferences so we can send relevant updates. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any newsletter email.

Data retention

We keep information only as long as needed to operate the service, comply with legal obligations, and prevent abuse.

Third-party services

We may use third-party providers for email delivery, hosting, and Cloudflare Web Analytics. Those providers process data according to their own policies.

Visitor stats

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to see how many people visit and which pages are useful. It does not use cookies or track you across other sites. It collects the page you visited, the referring site, your browser type, and a rough country, and it does not collect personal information that identifies you. Those stats help us improve the site, and Cloudflare's privacy policy explains how the tool works.

Your choices

You can:

  • Unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time
  • Email contact@serversearch.org to request correction or deletion of information tied to your email address, where applicable

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be posted on this page.
