Welcome to the GORF Privacy Policy

GORF ("we" or "us") respects and protects the privacy of users; and is committed to delivering a privacy-safe environment. When you use GORF Search, you trust us with your searches and we understand and value this trust. We have provided this Privacy Policy to explain how GORF protects your privacy while searching and what information we collect.

Summary of our GORF Search Practices

  1. GORF does not track search history in any user identifiable way.
    The most popular search engines create search profiles of specific users in order to retarget ads based on those search queries as the user navigates the internet. GORF does not track your search history in any user identifiable way.
  2. GORF does not retain server logs.
    GORF does not use tracking tools or maintain logs that compromise your privacy.
  3. GORF prevents your ISP from tracking your search terms.
    Some search engines do not encrypt your queries, which means your Internet Service Provider (ISP) can intercept and access them and connect them to your web and/or cable account. When you use GORF , your search queries are encrypted so that your ISP cannot read them.
  4. GORF does not associate your searches from your online accounts.
    GORF completely disconnects your searches from being tied to your email accounts and social profiles.
  5. GORF helps hide your search history on your device.
    GORF uses proprietary technology to hide you search history from others who may use your device after you search. This may save you from some embarrassing situation.

Information We May Collect

We store aggregated search data and error log data to improve product performance, but never store IP addresses or unique user identifiers in connection with such data in order to ensure that none of the information collected in connection with your search activity is personally identifiable information (as such term is commonly understood in the United States without reference to any applicable state laws).

In some circumstances, we may append an affiliate code to certain sites linked to our GORF product, either directly or through search results delivered to you. In doing so, we may collect a small commission in connection with your activity, but do not pass any of your personally identifiable information to any such third party sites. We do not utilize any third party to assist us with appending such affiliate code and we do not work with any third party site that collects personally identifiable information in connection with our participation in such affiliate programs. As such, no personally identifiable information is shared from GORF and the only information that is collected is product information that is not relatable to any particular end user and we do not retain such information in any case.

GORF does not use cookies to store user settings or any other site data.

To the extent you provide us with feedback, we may store your email address if you provide it (but you are not required to do so).

Information We May Share

To the extent we receive any legally binding request to comply with a court order or applicable law, we will share the information requested of us to the extent we have it, but, as noted above, we would expect this information to be very limited and likely of little use given our limited information collection.

Age Restriction

GORF is not intended for children under the age of 16. You are prohibited from using GORF if you are under the age of 16. While we do not knowingly collect information, including personally identifiable information, from children under the age of 16, in the event that we learn that we have collected personally identifiable information from a child under the age of 16, we will promptly delete it, unless legally required to retain such data. Please contact us immediately if you believe that we have mistakenly or unintentionally collected information from a child under the age of 16.

International Usage and Data Transfers

We make no representation and/or warranty that GORF is appropriate, legal or available for use in any particular jurisdiction. If you choose to access and use GORF, such access and use is of your own initiative and at your own risk, and you are responsible for complying with all local laws, rules and regulations. We may limit access to GORF, in whole or in part, to any person, geographic area or jurisdiction we choose, at any time and at our sole discretion.

This Policy may change from time to time. Please check back frequently for updates.
