Rank Tracker Privacy Notice

Last updated: 12 November 2026

This notice explains how DIY AI Rank Tracker and its optional Opportunity Finder add-on handle your information. The provider is Steven Jones, trading as DIY AI. Contact info@diyai.io for support, access or deletion requests.

Your Google Search Console connection

You choose whether to connect a Google account. We request read-only Search Console access, list the properties that account can access, and import performance data for properties you choose to track. This can include search queries, page URLs, dates, countries, devices, clicks, impressions, click-through rates and average positions. The connection does not give Rank Tracker permission to edit your website or Search Console settings.

We use this information to provide your reports, historical comparisons, exports and recommendations. Your WordPress account and membership control access to your workspace. Access and refresh tokens are encrypted on our server and are not returned to the dashboard. Read-only access can continue in the background to keep your reports current until access is disconnected, revoked or no longer authorised.

Optional keyword research

When you request Opportunity Finder research, a research keyword and the selected market and language are sent to DataForSEO. The keyword can come from your Search Console data. The app may also fetch a public page on your selected website to support its recommendations. It stores returned estimates and recommendations in your workspace. It does not send your whole Search Console dataset to an external AI model or automatically write or publish content.

Use and sharing

We do not sell your Google data, use it to target advertising, or use it to train general-purpose AI models. DIY AI Rank Tracker’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. Access is limited to providing the requested features, maintaining security and reliability, responding to support requests, and meeting legal obligations.

Hosting and infrastructure providers process stored information to run the service. DataForSEO processes the research inputs described above when you request that feature. Payment providers process subscription and payment information; connecting Search Console does not send them your search-performance reports. We may disclose information when legally required or to address security incidents. The general DIY AI privacy policy explains website cookies, account and payment processing, international transfers and your privacy rights. The authenticated Rank Tracker workspace excludes the site’s browser analytics and session-replay scripts.

Retention, disconnection and deletion

Imported history is retained to provide your reports until you remove it. Cancelling a subscription does not automatically erase that history. You can remove a tracked property, disconnect a Google connection, or use the data-deletion control in Rank Tracker. Disconnecting deletes the local connection and associated property analytics and attempts to revoke the Google token. If revocation cannot be confirmed, the app tells you to remove access through your Google account.

Deleting Tracker data does not cancel subscriptions, delete your WordPress account, or remove the limited billing, security and research-usage records needed to administer the service, prevent allowance abuse or meet legal obligations. If you cannot access the app, contact info@diyai.io to request deletion.

Deletion from the active service does not immediately erase every backup. Protected recovery copies are replaced through their backup rotation and are not used as an active reporting database. Different backup systems have different retention periods, so we do not promise one fixed deletion deadline for every recovery copy. Contact us about a specific erasure request; we will explain any legally required retention.

Changes and your choices

You can decline or revoke the Google connection. Reports depending on that connection will then stop updating. We will publish material changes to this notice and seek new consent before using Google data for a new purpose that requires it. Read the Rank Tracker terms for subscription and cancellation.
