Privacy Policy: what changed
AI summary
AI-written reading aid: changes between these versions. The linked published versions are the authoritative text.
- Adds a referral route: the form collects the referrer's details plus the named person's email and optional name, company and note, used to attribute commission and to contact them about those domains only.
- States that registering a lead adds no one to a marketing list and sends the lead nothing directly, and that the referrer confirms the person agrees to contact.
- Adds the referral commission arrangement as a contract legal basis alongside domain sales.
- Adds retention for referral leads: the ledger row is not deleted when the window lapses, though access, correction and erasure rights still apply.
- Extends anti-automation checks and seller-only access to referral submissions.

In short. This site has no accounts and nothing to log in to. It collects personal data in exactly one place — the forms you fill in to make an offer or, buy a domain, or refer a buyer — and it loads analytics and advertising scripts from Google that set their own cookies. Everything else on the page works without knowing who you are.
Referring a buyer
The referral form collects your name and email address, the domain(s) you are referring, and — about the person you are recommending — their email address and whatever else you choose to add: their name, company, and a short message about how you know them. We use this to attribute a referral commission if that person completes a purchase of one of the domains you named, within the program's window, and so we can reach out to them about those domains — that follow-up is the point of a referral introduction. Registering a lead does not add them to any marketing list, and submitting the form does not itself send them anything; the message it sends is to us, so we can decide whether and how to follow up. We never use a lead's details for anything unrelated to the domain(s) you named. By submitting the form you confirm that they are happy for us to contact them about those domains. See Refer a buyer [/refer/] for the full program terms.
For everything in this section, the legal basis under the GDPR is the performance of, or steps taken at your request before entering into, a contract — for the sale of a domain name, or, for a referral, the referral commission arrangement described at Refer a buyer [/refer/] (Article 6(1)(b)). For the analytics and advertising described in Section 4, the basis is your consent (Article 6(1)(a)), which you may withdraw at any time.
Cloudflare Turnstile checks that an offer, direct purchase, or referral is coming from a person. It reads browser signals and sets a short-lived clearance token. This one is strictly necessary — without it thethose offerforms form isare open to abuse — so it runs regardless of your analytics choice.
Offers and the correspondence around them are kept while the domain is still for sale and for 24 months after the last message between us, so that a returning buyer's history is intact and so a disputed negotiation can be reconstructed. Records of a completed sale — the agreement, the parties, the amount — are kept for seven years, because tax and contract law require it. A referral lead is kept as part of our commercial records — the row is the ledger for whether, and how much, commission is owed on it, so it is not deleted once its window lapses; a sale that syncs late can still be matched against it. We use a lead's contact details to attribute the referral and to reach out to them about the domain(s) named, never for anything unrelated. The access, correction, and erasure rights in Section 6 apply to a lead's details the same as to anything else in this policy, whether you are the referrer or the person referred. Analytics data is retained by Google under the retention window configured in that product. Nothing is kept "just in case".
Every page and every form is served over HTTPS with HSTS. Offer, purchase, and purchasereferral submissions are rateprotected by anti-limitedautomation and challenge-protectedchallenges. Access to stored offers and referral leads is limited to the seller. We do not hold payment credentials, so there is no card data here to lose.
