Privacy Policy

Linkifi (“Linkifi”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a digital PR and link building agency operating from the United Kingdom. We help brands earn editorial coverage and authoritative backlinks from major publications.

This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect when you visit linkifi.io (the “Site”) or engage our services, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you have over it. By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

We collect information in three ways:

Information you provide to us

• Contact and enquiry details — your name, email address, company or website details, and the contents of your message when you use our contact form, book a discovery call, or message us through the chat widget.
• Client information — billing details, campaign briefs, and business information you share with us when you become a client.

Information collected automatically

• Usage data — pages visited, time on page, referring URLs, and general interaction with the Site.
• Device data — IP address, browser type, operating system, and screen size.
• Cookies and similar technologies — see our Cookie Policy for full details.

Information from third parties

• Scheduling and CRM platforms we use to manage bookings and conversations, and advertising platforms that tell us how you found us (for example, whether you arrived via an ad).

We use the information we collect to:

• Respond to your enquiries and provide the services you request.
• Schedule, prepare for, and follow up on discovery calls.
• Deliver, manage, and report on client campaigns.
• Operate, maintain, and improve the Site.
• Measure the performance of our marketing and show you relevant advertising.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

Where UK or EU data protection law (including the UK GDPR and EU GDPR) applies, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Contract — processing needed to respond to your enquiry or deliver services you have engaged us for.
• Legitimate interests — operating and improving the Site, securing our systems, and marketing our services in ways you would reasonably expect.
• Consent — non-essential cookies and similar technologies, which you can withdraw at any time.
• Legal obligation — keeping records we are required to keep, such as for tax and accounting.

We share personal information only with service providers who help us run our business, and only to the extent needed for them to do so:

• Website hosting and infrastructure — providers that host the Site and store its content.
• CRM, chat, and scheduling — platforms that power our contact forms, live chat widget, and call bookings.
• Analytics and advertising — services such as Meta and Google that help us understand Site usage and measure advertising (see our Cookie Policy).
• Professional advisers — accountants, lawyers, and insurers where necessary.

We may also disclose information if required by law, or as part of a business transaction such as a merger or acquisition, in which case this policy will continue to apply to your information.

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to keep it working, understand how it is used, and measure our marketing. For a full explanation of what we set, why, and how to control it, please read our Cookie Policy.

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes described in this policy:

• Enquiries — kept while we correspond with you and for a reasonable period afterwards in case you return.
• Client records — kept for the duration of our engagement and as required afterwards for legal, tax, and accounting purposes.
• Analytics data — retained according to the settings of the analytics platforms we use, typically in aggregated form.

When information is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymise it.

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights over your personal information:

• Access the personal information we hold about you.
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Request deletion of your information.
• Object to or restrict certain processing.
• Receive a portable copy of information you provided to us.
• Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us via our contact page. If you are in the UK or EU, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your data protection authority — in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

Some of the service providers we use are based outside the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Where personal information is transferred internationally, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses to protect it.

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), access controls, and reputable infrastructure providers. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

The Site and our services are intended for businesses and are not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If the changes are significant, we will take reasonable steps to bring them to your attention. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your personal information, please reach out through our contact page and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
