Privacy Policy
Effective Date: November 3, 2026 · Last Updated: November 3, 2026
1. Introduction & Overview
Welcome to GEO Optimizer (“we,” “our,” or “us”), operating via https://geooptimizer.tech. GEO Optimizer provides a technical Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) audit platform designed to evaluate website accessibility, content structure, and Schema.org structured data readiness for AI search synthesis.
We are committed to safeguarding your personal data and transparency regarding information collected when you access our website, use our diagnostics tools, or view advertisements served across our domain.
2. Information We Collect
We collect minimal data necessary to deliver fast, reliable, and secure diagnostic analysis:
- Target Website URLs: When you input a website URL to perform a technical audit, our edge analyzer retrieves public HTTP headers, robots.txt directives, and public HTML markup. We do not inspect private or behind-the-login pages. Audit results are cached ephemerally and stored locally in your browser.
- Technical & Telemetry Data: Standard server logs collected automatically by Cloudflare edge infrastructure, including your IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, referring URL, and timestamps. This information is utilized strictly to prevent Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, abuse, and Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) threats.
- Local Storage State: We store your recent audit history, report comparison snapshots, and cookie consent preferences directly in your browser’s
localStorage. This data never leaves your device unless you clear your browser cache. - Transactional Information: If you purchase a Fix Pack or subscribe to Continuous Monitoring via third-party payment gateways (e.g., Stripe/Paddle), payment credentials (credit card numbers) are processed directly by the compliant payment processor. We never store or receive your complete financial information.
3. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising Disclosures
We may monetize pages through Google AdSense and third-party ad networks to keep our core diagnostic tools free for webmasters and developers worldwide. In compliance with Google AdSense program policies, please note the following required notices:
- Third-Party Vendor Cookies: Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on
geooptimizer.tech. - DoubleClick DART Cookie: Google’s use of the advertising DART cookie enables it and its advertising partners to serve ads to users based on their prior visits to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- Opting Out of Personalized Advertising: Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info or the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) Opt-Out Page.
- Non-Personalized Ads for EEA/UK: For users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom, ads shown comply with Google EU User Consent Policy and relevant data privacy regulations.
4. Web Analytics & Measurement
To improve our user experience and identify technical application issues, we use lightweight analytics:
- Microsoft Clarity: We partner with Microsoft Clarity to capture how you use and interact with our website through behavioral metrics, heatmaps, and session replay to improve and market our products/services. Website usage data is captured using first and third-party cookies and other tracking technologies to determine the popularity of products/services and online activity. Additionally, we use this information for site optimization, fraud/security purposes, and advertising. For more information about how Microsoft collects and uses your data, visit the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
- Pageview Analytics: A privacy-preserving, cookieless metrics tool that aggregates visit counts and referrer sources without tracking individual users or collecting IP fingerprints.
5. Legal Grounds for Processing (GDPR Compliance)
If you are an individual residing in the European Economic Area (EEA) or UK, our legal bases for processing your data include:
- Legitimate Interests: To run our technical diagnostics service, prevent security attacks, and ensure system integrity.
- Consent: For setting non-essential analytics cookies and personalized advertising cookies via our consent manager.
- Contractual Necessity: To deliver purchased Fix Pack reports or continuous monitoring subscriptions requested by you.
6. Your Data Rights (GDPR & CCPA/CPRA)
Depending on your geographic location, you possess explicit legal rights regarding your personal information:
Request copies of personal information we maintain about you and correct inaccuracies.
Request permanent deletion of any personal data associated with your interactions.
Under CCPA/CPRA, we do not sell your personal data to data brokers or third parties.

7. Children’s Privacy (COPPA Notice)
Our diagnostic services are intended strictly for webmasters, developers, business owners, and digital marketing professionals. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from individuals under the age of 16. If we become aware that a minor has provided personal data, we will immediately delete such data from our records.
8. Data Security & Storage
We implement industry-standard encryption protocols (TLS 1.3 via Cloudflare edge), strict Content Security Policies, and automated SSRF protection guards against malicious intranet probe attempts. Public audit records are retained temporarily and can be wiped directly from your local browser session at any time.
9. Policy Revisions & Contact
We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect technological updates, regulatory changes, or modifications to our services. Any updates will be published on this page with an updated “Last Updated” timestamp.
