Privacy

This page describes how rankemo.com actually works today. It is kept deliberately short because the site collects very little.

What this site does not do

If any of this changes — for example, if a privacy-respecting analytics tool is added later — this page will be updated first.

Stock and price alerts

If you ask to be told when a part comes back in stock or gets cheaper, we store your email address, which part you asked about, the bike generation you were looking at, and the date. That is the whole record. The legal basis is your consent, given by submitting the form, and the only use is sending you that one kind of message. Every alert email carries a one-click unsubscribe link; using it stops the emails immediately. Alerts you have not unsubscribed from are kept until you do, or until the part disappears from the site.

Owner reports and feedback

When you tell us whether a part fitted your bike, we store your answer, the part, the bike generation, your optional comment and the date. When you report a problem or send an idea, we store the message, the type you picked, the page you were on, the date, and your email address only if you chose to give one so we can reply. None of it is published with your name or address attached: only the counts of yes and no answers are shown on the site.

To stop the same person voting many times without asking anyone to create an account, we store a one-way fingerprint computed from your IP address, a secret known only to our server, and the part concerned. The address itself is never written down, the fingerprint cannot be turned back into it, and a different fingerprint is produced for each part, so it cannot be used to follow you around the site.

Emails you send us

For visitors to this site, the personal data Rankemo processes is what you choose to send by email to contact@rankemo.com — typically your name, your email address and the information you include in your message. It is used to reply to you. It is not added to marketing lists, and it is not shared with third parties except the email infrastructure used to send and receive messages.

If you want the correspondence you sent deleted, ask by email at the same address and it will be deleted unless invoicing or legal record-keeping obligations require keeping part of it.

Who processes this data for us

Alerts, reports and feedback are stored in a Neon Postgres database hosted in the European Union. Alert emails are sent through Brevo, a French provider, which processes the recipient address for the sole purpose of delivering the message. Neither is allowed to use your data for anything else, and we do not send them anything beyond what is described above.

Hosting

The site is hosted by Vercel Inc. (United States). As with any web host, standard technical server logs (such as IP addresses of requests) may be processed by the hosting infrastructure to deliver and secure the service. Rankemo does not use these logs to identify visitors.

Your rights

Rankemo is operated from France. Depending on where you live, you may have rights of access, rectification, deletion and portability over personal data concerning you (under the GDPR in the European Union, and equivalent laws elsewhere). For alerts you can act yourself with the unsubscribe link in any alert email. For anything else — including deleting a report or a comment you sent us — write to contact@rankemo.com.
