Frequently asked questions
A link preview shows a title, description, image and site name extracted from a URL's Open Graph or meta tags — the same snippet you see when you share a link in Slack or iMessage.
Each URL is fetched, scraped for metadata, and the result is returned to you. We do not store the URL, the response, or any identifying information about the request.
Not by default. URLs are processed in memory and discarded immediately after the response is sent. Request logging is opt-in — you can enable it in your dashboard if you need it for debugging or analytics.
All compute and any transient data stays within AWS eu-west-1 (Ireland). No data leaves the EU/UK.
Yes. A DPA is available on Pro and Business plans. Contact us to request one.
On the Personal plan, requests over the limit return a 429 response. On Pro and Business, you will be notified and can upgrade at any time without service interruption.
