Privacy policy
UptimeRankings doesn't have user accounts and doesn't sell personal data. This page explains the little data we do collect when you visit, and the choices you have.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the site, for example which rankings are read most and how people arrive here. It records information such as the pages you view, your approximate location (country or city, derived from your IP address), your device and browser type, and the referring website. Google Analytics 4 doesn't log or store full IP addresses. We use this data only in aggregate, to improve the site, and we don't use it for advertising.
Your choice. If you're in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, analytics cookies are off until you accept them. Elsewhere, they're on unless you reject them. Until you accept, Google Analytics only receives cookieless, anonymous signals (Google Consent Mode), which can't identify you across visits. You can change your choice at any time: .
Cookies and local storage
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Distinguish visitors and sessions (only with your consent where required) | Up to 2 years |
ur-analytics-consent | UptimeRankings | Remember your cookie choice (browser local storage, never sent to us) | Until you clear it |
We don't use advertising, retargeting or social media tracking cookies.
Hosting and security
The site is delivered through Cloudflare, which processes requests (including IP addresses) to deliver pages and protect the site from abuse, and may set strictly necessary security cookies. Our servers keep standard technical logs for security and troubleshooting.
Links to vendors
Some links to vendors are affiliate links (see our disclosure policy). When you follow one, the vendor and its affiliate network may set their own cookies under their own privacy policies.
If you email us, we use your address and message only to reply and to handle your request, for example a data correction.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data about you, and to object to its processing. Because we don't run accounts, the only personal data we hold is in analytics (which you can control with the cookie choice above) and in emails you send us. To make a request, email hello@uptimerankings.com.
Changes
We'll update this page if what we collect changes.
