Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how SEO Fury ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our WordPress plugin and related services (collectively, the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information We Collect

SEO Fury is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal information necessary to provide the Service:

• Site URL and WordPress version -- collected during license activation to verify your subscription and provide compatibility support.
• Email address -- provided voluntarily when you register for a PRO license, contact support, or subscribe to updates.
• Usage data -- anonymized, aggregated statistics about which plugin features are active. This helps us prioritize development. No personal data or site content is included.
• Support communications -- any information you provide when contacting us via email or Telegram.

SEO Fury does not collect, store, or transmit your site content, post data, visitor information, or any personal data of your site visitors.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To activate and validate PRO licenses.
• To provide technical support and respond to inquiries.
• To improve the plugin by understanding which features are most used.
• To send important product updates and security notices (you may opt out at any time).

External Services

SEO Fury may interact with the following third-party services on your behalf when their corresponding features are enabled:

• IndexNow API -- when the IndexNow feature is active, your site URLs are submitted to the IndexNow protocol (used by Bing, Yandex, and other participating search engines) to notify them of new or updated content. Only the URL of the changed page and your IndexNow API key are transmitted. No personal data is sent.
• Google Search Console / Google APIs -- if you connect Google Search Console integration, the plugin communicates with Google APIs using OAuth tokens that you authorize. Data retrieved (such as search queries and click data) is displayed only within your WordPress dashboard and is not stored on our servers.
• SEO Fury License Server -- PRO license validation requests are sent to our server at api.seo-fury.com. These requests include your site URL, license key, and WordPress version. No other data is transmitted.

Google User Data

This section describes how SEO Fury accesses, uses, stores, and shares data obtained through Google APIs. It applies only if you choose to connect Google Search Console; the plugin works fully without this integration.

What we request

SEO Fury requests a single, read-only scope: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/webmasters.readonly. This grants read access to the Search Console properties you own. We request no other Google scopes, and we cannot modify, delete, or publish anything in your Google account.

How the connection works

• You start the connection from your own WordPress admin and approve it on Google's consent screen.
• Google redirects to our OAuth relay at https://seo-fury.com/oauth/callback.php, which exchanges the authorization code for access and refresh tokens. The relay exists so that our Google client secret is never distributed inside the plugin.
• The tokens are written to a single-use temporary file on our server, retrieved once by your WordPress site, and deleted immediately upon retrieval. Any file not retrieved expires and is discarded within 5 minutes.
• From that point the tokens are stored in your own WordPress database, on your own hosting, under your control.

Where your Search Console data goes

Your Search Console data is never sent to, processed by, or stored on SEO Fury servers. Once connected, your WordPress site queries the Google API directly and renders the results (clicks, impressions, average position, indexing status) inside your own WordPress admin. We operate only as a token-exchange relay and hold no copy of your Search Console data at any time.

Limited Use commitment

SEO Fury's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Specifically, we:

• use Google user data only to provide and improve the user-facing features described above, which are prominent in the plugin interface;
• do not transfer Google user data to third parties, except as necessary to provide or improve those features, to comply with applicable law, or as part of a merger or acquisition after obtaining your explicit consent;
• do not use Google user data for serving advertisements of any kind;
• do not allow humans to read Google user data, unless we have your explicit consent for specific items, it is necessary for security purposes or to comply with applicable law, or the data has been aggregated and anonymised for internal operations;
• do not use Google user data to develop, improve, or train generalised artificial intelligence or machine learning models.

Retention and deletion

We retain no Google user data. The temporary token file described above is the only Google data that ever touches our infrastructure, and it is deleted as soon as your site collects it, or within 5 minutes at the latest.

You can revoke SEO Fury's access at any time:

• disconnect Search Console inside the plugin, which removes the stored tokens from your WordPress database; and/or
• revoke access directly at Google Account → Third-party apps & services.

Revoking access takes effect immediately and stops all further data retrieval. If you have any question about Google data handling, contact us at the address in the Contact section below.

SEO Fury Chrome Extension

This section applies to the SEO Fury browser extension for Google Chrome (Chrome Web Store ID omkoncaffmikgcdndbnnokjggdmkfkce). The extension is a separate product from the WordPress plugin and does not require an SEO Fury account.

What data the extension collects and why

The extension analyzes the web page open in the active tab only after you click the extension icon, open its side panel, or explicitly enable automatic audits in its settings. To produce the audit it reads the page's HTML: meta tags, headings, links, images, structured data, response headers, robots.txt and sitemap of the same site, and Core Web Vitals timings of your visit. This content is processed locally in your browser for the sole purpose of showing you the SEO report.

The extension stores the following data locally in your browser using Chrome's extension storage: your settings, a history of audited URLs with their scores, a short-lived cache of audit results (cleared automatically), and, if you connect the Search Console feature, a Google OAuth access token. None of this data is transmitted to SEO Fury servers. We do not run analytics or telemetry inside the extension, and we have no access to your browsing activity.

AI fix plan (optional)

The "Build a fix plan with AI" feature works only with an API key that you enter yourself in the extension settings. When you press the button, the extension sends the URL of the current page, its title, meta description, H1, main keywords and the list of detected issues directly from your browser to the provider you selected — Anthropic (Claude) or OpenAI (ChatGPT). That data is processed under the selected provider's own terms and privacy policy. SEO Fury servers receive neither your API key nor any page content. The key is stored locally in your browser and can be removed at any time in the extension settings.

Google Search Console (optional)

If you connect Search Console in the extension settings, you sign in with Google through the standard OAuth consent screen and grant read-only access to the Search Console data of properties you own (scope webmasters.readonly). The extension then requests clicks, impressions, average position and top queries for the audited page directly from Google APIs and displays them in the report. The access token is stored only in your browser; requests go straight from your browser to Google. Search Console data is never sent to, processed by, or stored on SEO Fury servers. Our use of Google user data is limited to this purpose and complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. You can disconnect in the extension settings or revoke access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.

Site access permissions

By default the extension works on click through Chrome's activeTab permission and cannot read other pages. Broader host access is requested only when you enable a feature that needs it: side-panel auto-refresh while browsing a site, automatic audits, the User-Agent switch, redirect tracing, or comparison with another page. When you compare pages or trace redirects, the extension fetches the URLs you specify directly from your browser; nothing is routed through SEO Fury servers. You can withdraw these permissions at any time on the chrome://extensions page.

Sharing, retention and deletion

We do not sell, rent or share extension data with anyone. The only third parties that can receive data are the AI provider you chose (only when you use the AI fix plan) and Google (only when you use the Search Console feature), and in both cases the transfer happens directly from your browser at your request. All extension data lives in your browser: clearing the history in the extension, removing the API key or disconnecting Search Console in the settings deletes the corresponding data, and uninstalling the extension deletes everything it stored.

Data Storage

All SEO settings, meta data, and configuration created by the plugin are stored locally in your WordPress database. We do not maintain copies of your site data on our servers.

License and account information (email, license keys, site URLs) is stored securely on our servers with industry-standard encryption and access controls.

Cookies

The SEO Fury plugin itself does not set any cookies on your site or for your site visitors. Our marketing website (seo-fury.com) may use essential cookies for session management and analytics. No tracking cookies are used.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
• Request correction or deletion of your personal data.
• Opt out of non-essential communications at any time.
• Deactivate the plugin at any time, which stops all external data transmission.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of any material changes by posting a notice on our website or via email. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
