Privacy
Last updated:
This page describes what this website actually does today, in specific terms. It is short because the site does very little.
There are no accounts
You cannot sign up to EarnBench and there is nothing to log in to. We hold no name, email address or password for any visitor, because there is no mechanism on this site that could collect one.
What we record when you click an outbound link
When you follow one of our referral links (any link through /go/), we write one row to our own database containing:
- which site the link pointed to;
- your country, and a coarse region or state code where our hosting provider supplies one;
- a broad device category — android, ios, desktop, other mobile, or unknown;
- which page on our site you clicked from;
- a campaign label, if you arrived via an advertisement of ours; and
- the date and time.
We record this to know which of our pages are useful and what our advertising costs per visitor. It is aggregate measurement, not a profile.
What we deliberately do not record
- Your IP address. We derive a country from it and discard it. It is never written to our database.
- Any precise location. Country and a coarse region are the only geographic data stored.
- Your full user-agent string or any device fingerprint. We store one of five broad device categories.
- Cookies. This site sets none.
- Any identifier that links your clicks together, on this site or across others. Rows are not tied to a visitor.
- Third-party analytics or advertising pixels. There are none anywhere on this site. No Google Analytics, no Meta pixel, no tag manager.
What happens after you leave
When you follow a link to a reward site, you are on their site under their privacy policy, and they will collect their own data — including, where a referral link is configured, the fact that you arrived from us. We have no control over and no visibility into what they collect. Read their policy before signing up; that is genuine advice, not a formality.
Retention and your rights
Click rows are kept while they remain useful for measurement. Because no row is linked to an identifiable person, we cannot single out “your” data to export or delete on request — the honest consequence of not collecting identifiers in the first place. If you have a question or concern, contact us via the about page and we will answer it directly.
Changes to this page
If we ever add analytics, a cookie, or an advertising pixel, this page will be updated at the same time as the change, and the date at the top will move. It is written to describe what the code does, not what a template says.
