Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2, 2026
1. Introduction
DN Detector (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website dndetector.com, a premium domain marketplace. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you.
By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.
2. Information We Collect
We may collect the following categories of information:
- Information you provide - name, email address, message content, and domain of interest when you submit a contact form, domain offer, newsletter signup, drops registration, or similar inquiry.
- Technical data - IP address, browser type, device information, referring URL, and pages visited, collected automatically through standard server logs and analytics on domain pages.
- Preferences stored locally - theme choice, watchlist items, cookie consent settings, and dismissed banner state, stored in your browser (see Section 6).
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data, and our site is not directed at children under 16.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use personal data to:
- Respond to inquiries about domains and the platform
- Send newsletter and drops notifications you have requested
- Operate, secure, and improve the website
- Measure domain page interest (aggregated visit statistics)
- Comply with legal obligations and prevent abuse
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their marketing purposes.
4. Legal Basis (EEA / UK Visitors)
Where applicable under the GDPR, we process personal data on the following bases:
- Consent - optional cookies, marketing communications, and form submissions you choose to send
- Legitimate interests - site security, fraud prevention, aggregated analytics, and responding to business inquiries
- Contract - steps taken at your request before a domain transaction
5. Third-Party Service Providers
We use trusted third parties to help operate the site. They process data only as needed to perform their service and are required to protect it appropriately.
| Provider | Purpose | Data involved |
|---|---|---|
| Web3Forms | Secure delivery of contact and drops form submissions to our inbox | Name, email, message fields you submit |
| Hosting & email infrastructure | Website hosting, email routing for contact@dndetector.com | Server logs, email correspondence |
| Google AdSense | Display advertising on article and content pages (only after you accept marketing cookies) | Cookie identifiers, page views, device data (by Google) |
| Google Fonts | Typography delivery (IBM Plex Sans) | IP address, browser data (by Google) |
| Domain marketplaces | External purchase links (Afternic, Sedo, Atom, etc.) | Governed by each marketplace’s own policy when you leave our site |
Optional analytics (for example Google Analytics / GTM) and third-party ad scripts such as Google AdSense may load only if you grant marketing consent in our cookie banner. We do not load those scripts before consent.
7. Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes above. Form inquiries are kept for up to 24 months unless a longer period is required by law or ongoing correspondence. Newsletter emails are kept until you unsubscribe or request deletion. Server logs are typically retained for 90 days. You may request earlier deletion (see Section 9).
8. Security
We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures including HTTPS encryption, access controls on admin areas, CSRF protection, rate limiting, and restricted access to configuration files. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction or deletion of your data
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Withdraw consent where processing is consent-based
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority
To exercise these rights, email contact@dndetector.com. We will respond within 30 days.
10. International Transfers
Our service providers may process data in the United States or other countries. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or provider certifications. By using the site, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred internationally.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect any revision. Material changes will be posted on this page. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
