Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 1, 2026.
Welcome to IShowSpeed Said ("we," "our," or "us"), operating at ishowspeedsaid.com. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have concerning your data.
We take a privacy-first approach. Because our platform operates as a public search index, you are not required to create an account or provide any personal information to use our services.
1. Information We Collect
We intentionally minimize the data we collect. We do not collect, store, or process Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as your name, address, phone number, or IP address during your standard use of the site.
The data we do collect falls into the following anonymized categories:
Search Logs: When you use our search engine, we log the literal text of your search query (e.g., 'Ronaldo' or 'SEWEY'). These logs are used strictly to analyze trending topics and improve the accuracy of our search algorithms. Search queries are never linked to your IP address or any user identifier.
Anonymized Analytics: We use Matomo, a privacy-focused analytics platform, to understand how visitors interact with our site. We collect generalized, non-personal data such as device type (mobile vs. desktop), browser type, referring URLs, and page view counts. This data is strictly aggregated and cannot be used to identify you.
Newsletter Emails: If you voluntarily subscribe to our newsletter, we store your email address in a secure database for the sole purpose of sending you updates. You may unsubscribe at any time by contacting us. We never share, sell, or rent your email to third parties.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the anonymized and aggregated information we collect to: provide, maintain, and improve the performance of our search engine; understand community search trends to index new, highly requested IShowSpeed content; ensure the technical stability and security of our website; and serve relevant advertisements to keep the platform free to use.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies are small data files stored on your browser. We use standard cookies for three specific purposes:
Site Functionality: To remember your preferences, such as your cookie consent choice, so you are not repeatedly prompted.
Analytics (Matomo): To track aggregated user behavior across the site. These cookies are only loaded if you choose 'Accept All' in our cookie consent banner.
Advertising (Google AdSense): To allow our third-party advertising partners to display relevant ads. These cookies are only loaded if you choose 'Accept All' in our cookie consent banner. If you choose 'Essential Only,' only site functionality cookies are used. If you choose 'Reject All,' no non-essential cookies are set.
You can reset or revoke your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the 'Reset Cookies' link located in the footer of our website.
4. Third-Party Services and APIs
Google AdSense: We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google uses cookies (including DART cookies) to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other websites. You may opt out of the use of the DART cookie for personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ad Settings.
YouTube API Services: This application utilizes YouTube API Services to fetch and display video metadata, thumbnails, and embedded video players. By using this website, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. For more information on how Google handles data, please review the Google Privacy Policy.
5. Data Security and Retention
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect our infrastructure. We utilize HTTPS encryption across the entire site, enforce strict security headers (such as Strict-Transport-Security and X-Frame-Options), and utilize secure database environments for our transcripts and search logs. Because we do not collect PII, there is no risk of personal data breaches.
6. Children's Privacy
Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child, please contact us so we can take immediate steps to remove such information.
7. External Links
Our website may contain links to external sites (such as X/Twitter, affiliate software links, or YouTube). We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of these third-party websites. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
8. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or our site operations. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated 'Last updated' date at the top. Your continued use of the website after any modifications indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.
