Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 April 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Leaning Technologies Limited ("Leaning Technologies", "we", "us", and "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information relating to BrowserPod and related services available through browserpod.io and its subdomains, including console.browserpod.io, rt.browserpod.io, and browserportal.io (together, the "Services"). This Privacy Policy forms part of the BrowserPod Terms of Service.

1. Who We Are and What This Policy Covers

Leaning Technologies Limited is a company registered in England and Wales under company number 08227826. Our registered office is Nexus, Discovery Way, Leeds, England, LS2 3AA.

This policy applies to your use of the Services described above. The Services may contain links to third-party websites or integrations that we do not control. Those third parties handle data under their own privacy policies, so we encourage you to review them before providing information.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide directly

Depending on how you use BrowserPod, you may provide:

  • Account information, such as your email address and GitHub username.
  • Payment and billing information, such as your email address, billing address, card details, and subscription details when you purchase paid Services. Payments are processed by Paddle, our third-party payment processor.
  • Communication information, such as your name, email address, company details, and the content of messages you send through a contact form or by email.
  • Support information, including the details you share when you ask for technical help.

Information we collect automatically

When you visit or use the Services, we may automatically collect:

  • Website and service usage information, including your web request, IP address, browser type and language, referring and exit pages, URLs, platform type, domain names, landing pages, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and the date and time of requests.
  • API key generation logs, including the BrowserPod API key generated, the related user ID, and the origin IP address of the request.
  • Pod and API logging information collected when a BrowserPod Pod instance boots, including the IP address of the Cloudflare Worker serving the Pod portal, the authentication key, the user ID linked to your account, the destination IP address and port, and the destination URL where applicable.
  • Information from third parties, including transaction history, purchase history, or account information shared when you use third-party sign-in or connected services.

Cookies and similar tracking technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies on our marketing website, console, and demo flows to understand how people interact with BrowserPod, measure the effectiveness of our marketing, and associate relevant activity with contact records where you submit your details or sign in.

These technologies may include:

  • Google Analytics tags, which help us measure visits and engagement on our website.
  • HubSpot, which we use for marketing analytics and contact management. HubSpot may set cookies including hubspotutk, __hstc, __hssc, and __hssrc, and may associate your browsing activity, form submissions, console sign-ins, or most recent BrowserPod demo visit with your contact record.
  • LinkedIn marketing tools, including the LinkedIn Insight Tag and LinkedIn Conversions API, which help us measure campaign performance. These tools may use cookies such as li_fat_id and may associate your visit with your LinkedIn profile if LinkedIn cookies are enabled in your browser.

Our demo environment uses technical headers such as Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy that prevent third-party scripts from running directly inside the demo page. In that environment, tracking events may be relayed through a Leaning Technologies server-side intermediary, such as a Cloudflare Worker, rather than running directly in the browser.

Third-party cookie tags such as HubSpot will only run after you have provided consent via the cookie banner on this site.

3. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • provide, operate, personalise, secure, and support the Services;
  • create and manage accounts, authenticate users, generate API keys, and process payments;
  • respond to enquiries, support requests, and other communications;
  • send service, account, security, legal, and administrative notices;
  • understand how users discover and use BrowserPod, improve the design and functionality of the Services, and develop new features;
  • measure the performance of marketing campaigns and manage communications with prospective and existing customers; and
  • detect abuse, protect our rights and users, enforce our agreements, and comply with legal obligations.

We do not use your personal information for automated decision-making or profiling.

4. How We Share Information

We may share information only where reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including with:

  • Affiliates and group companies that help us operate or support BrowserPod;
  • service providers and subprocessors that host infrastructure, process payments, support customer communications, or help us run marketing and analytics tools;
  • Paddle, which processes billing and subscription information for paid plans under its own terms and privacy policy;
  • marketing and analytics platforms, including HubSpot and LinkedIn, where relevant to the tracking and communications described above;
  • professional advisers, regulators, courts, law enforcement, or other authorities where disclosure is required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, property, safety, or the Services; and
  • a buyer, successor, or other transaction counterparty if we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganisation, or sale of all or part of our business.

We do not sell your personal information.

5. Hosting, Data Location, and Processor Roles

BrowserPod is hosted using a combination of European data storage and global infrastructure. Customer data is stored primarily in the European Union, while network and delivery services may be processed through Cloudflare infrastructure at the data centre closest to the relevant end user.

If you access the Services from outside the European Union, your information may be transferred to and processed in the European Union and through this global infrastructure as part of providing the Services.

Where BrowserPod customers use the Services to process their own end-user data, the customer is generally the data controller and Leaning Technologies acts as a data processor, processing that data on the customer's behalf and in accordance with the customer's instructions and applicable data protection law.

Our key subprocessors currently include:

  • Cloudflare, Ltd., which provides content delivery, Workers, Durable Objects, and related infrastructure. Cloudflare D1 data storage for BrowserPod is configured in the European Union.
  • HubSpot, Inc., which provides customer relationship management and marketing analytics tooling. Our HubSpot portal is configured with EU data residency, although some processing may also be subject to HubSpot's own global infrastructure.
  • LinkedIn Corporation, which provides advertising and campaign measurement tooling.
  • Paddle.com Market Limited, which provides billing and subscription management services.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to provide the Services, meet contractual commitments, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with legal obligations.

More specifically:

  • customer data is generally retained for the duration of the customer relationship unless a longer retention period is required by law;
  • if a customer terminates the Services and requests deletion, we will instruct the relevant subprocessor to delete customer data within 30 days after termination unless we are legally required to keep it;
  • non-personal logging information relating to end-users of a customer's website or application that is sent through the BrowserPod API is retained for at least one year and may be kept longer where required by law; and
  • we may continue to use information that has been de-identified, anonymised, or aggregated so that it is no longer personal data.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Under the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, and other applicable data protection laws, you may have rights that include:

  • the right to be informed about how your personal information is used;
  • the right to request access to a copy of the personal information we hold about you;
  • the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
  • the right to request deletion of personal information in certain circumstances;
  • the right to request restriction of processing;
  • the right to object to certain processing;
  • the right to data portability where applicable; and
  • the right to withdraw consent where we rely on consent.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect parts of the Services or limit the tracking described above. You may also review opt-out or privacy controls offered by providers such as HubSpot and LinkedIn.

To exercise your privacy rights, please contact us at [email protected]. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office.

8. Security

We use commercially reasonable physical, technical, and organisational safeguards to protect personal information. No method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Services after an update takes effect will be treated as acceptance of the revised policy.
