Privacy and your data

What Semhack reads from Google, what it stores, how pages are fetched, and where to read the full policy.

Google Search Console

  • Semhack asks for read-only access (webmasters.readonly). It can’t change anything in Search Console or your Google account.
  • It reads the list of properties you can access, so you can pick clients, and imports search performance (queries, pages, clicks, impressions, CTR and position) for the properties you pick.
  • Google sign-in tokens are stored encrypted (AES-256-GCM) and used only to fetch that data.
  • You can revoke access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions (opens in a new tab).

Websites you audit

Audits fetch public pages as SemhackBot through a guarded fetcher that refuses private and internal network addresses. Site audits obey robots.txt. See the crawler page for how to identify or block it.

Inside your workspace

  • Everything you see, from audits and clients to briefs and alerts, belongs to your workspace and is only shown to its members.
  • Brief share links are the only way to show something to people outside the workspace, and you can turn each one off.
  • AI drafts are off unless your workspace turns them on. See AI drafts for what is sent.
  • “Was this helpful?” votes on these help pages are anonymous counts.

The full privacy policy covers retention, service providers and your rights.
