Last changed: 11th July 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to scrapetags.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling any personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2. Controller

The controller responsible for the processing of your personal data on this Website is scrapetags.com. You can reach us at: .

3. Data We Process

scrapetags.com is a tool for inspecting the metadata of public web pages. We aim to collect as little personal data as possible. The following data may be processed when you use the Service:

  • IP Address: When you submit a request, your IP address is transmitted to our server and may be processed in server logs for the purpose of security, abuse prevention, and error diagnosis (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interests).
  • Submitted URLs: The public URL you enter is processed solely to fetch and display the associated metadata. This data is processed to fulfill your request (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR — performance of a contract / pre-contractual measures).
  • Technical Request Data: Information such as browser type, referring URL, and timestamp may be processed in log entries for security and operational purposes (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interests).

We do not require you to create an account, and we do not knowingly collect personal data such as your name, email address, or physical address. The metadata retrieved by the Service originates from third-party websites and is not personal data that we collect from you.

4. Purpose and Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data for the following purposes and on the following legal bases:

  • Provision of the Service — to fetch and display metadata for the URLs you submit (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
  • Security and Abuse Prevention — to log requests, detect misuse, and protect the integrity of our infrastructure (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interests).
  • Compliance with Legal Obligations — where we are required to retain or disclose data under applicable law (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).

5. Analytics

We use a privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics service that does not use cookies and does not process personal data in a way that identifies you as an individual. The analytics service processes aggregated, non-personal data such as page views and general usage statistics. No personal data is shared with or sold to third parties for advertising purposes.

6. Logging and Error Tracking

We use a third-party logging service to collect application logs, including errors and request metadata. These logs may contain IP addresses and technical request data, which are used to diagnose issues and ensure the stability and security of the Service. Log data is retained only for as long as necessary for these purposes.

7. Recipients of Personal Data

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with the following categories of recipients who act as processors or sub-processors on our behalf:

  • Hosting and Infrastructure Providers — to operate and maintain the Website and its backend services.
  • Logging and Analytics Providers — as described in Sections 4 and 5.
  • Public Authorities — where we are legally required to disclose data.

8. Transfer of Data to Third Countries

Your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). In such cases, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

9. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including any legal or reporting requirements. Server log entries are kept for a limited period and then deleted or anonymized.

10. Cookies

The Website does not use cookies. Our analytics service operates without cookies. You may still manage or disable cookies in your browser settings; this will not affect the functionality of the Website.

  • Right of Access (Art. 15 GDPR): Request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and access to it.
