Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 10, 2026
Introduction
Design Extractor (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website at https://www.design-extractor.com. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and your rights regarding that data.
We do not require accounts, passwords, or personal profiles. The only data we collect is anonymous analytics data when you consent to it.
What we collect
We use two analytics services:
PostHog (product analytics)
PostHog only loads after you accept analytics cookies via our consent banner. When enabled, it collects:
- Page views and navigation patterns
- Feature usage events (e.g. URL submissions, button clicks)
- Device type, browser, and operating system
- Approximate location derived from IP address
- Session duration and referral source
PostHog does not collect names, email addresses, or any information that directly identifies you. We use PostHog’s person_profiles: "identified_only" setting, meaning no persistent user profiles are created for anonymous visitors.
Vercel Analytics
Vercel Analytics runs automatically and does not require consent. It is privacy-focused and collects only aggregate, anonymized performance data (page load times, web vitals). It does not use cookies, does not store anything on your device, and does not track individual visitors.
How we use your data
We use the analytics data exclusively to:
- Understand which features are used and how
- Improve the product and fix issues
- Monitor site performance and reliability
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use a small number of cookies and browser storage items. Here is a complete list:
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| ph_* | Analytics (first-party) | PostHog session and event tracking | 1 year |
| cookie-consent | Strictly necessary (localStorage) | Remembers your cookie preference | Persistent |
Analytics cookies are only set after you click “Accept” on the cookie banner. If you decline, no analytics cookies are placed and PostHog does not load. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser’s local storage and cookies for this site.
Legal bases for processing (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), UK, or Switzerland, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Consent— for analytics cookies (PostHog). You can grant or withdraw consent at any time via the cookie banner.
- Legitimate interest — for strictly necessary storage (your consent preference in localStorage), which does not require consent under the ePrivacy Directive.
Data sharing and subprocessors
We do not sell, rent, or share your data with advertisers or data brokers. The following service providers process data on our behalf:
- PostHog, Inc.— product analytics (EU region, eu.i.posthog.com)
- Vercel, Inc.— hosting, edge network, and web analytics (US)
International data transfers
PostHog analytics data is processed within the European Union (EU region). Vercel processes hosting and web analytics data in the United States. Where data is transferred outside the EEA, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and our processors’ data processing agreements to provide appropriate safeguards.
Data retention
Analytics data collected by PostHog is retained according to PostHog’s default retention settings. Vercel Analytics data is retained in aggregate form. We do not maintain any personally identifiable records, as we do not collect account information.
Your rights under GDPR
If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Rectify inaccurate data
- Request erasure of your data
- Restrict or object to processing
- Data portability
- Withdraw consent at any time (this does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal)
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@design-extractor.com. Since we do not maintain user accounts, we may ask you to provide information to help us locate any data associated with your visit.
Your rights under CCPA/CPRA
If you are a California resident, you have the right to:
- Know what personal information we collect and how we use it
- Request deletion of your personal information
- Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information — we do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising
- Non-discrimination for exercising your rights
To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@design-extractor.com.
Children
Design Extractor is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
Changes to this policy
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. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
