URL scans and the demo
URL analysis goes through the PageDNA backend, which only fetches the address you provide. The demo page is analyzed locally in your browser.
How PageDNA handles your data, in plain terms.
Last updated: October 2026This page is a general description of how the product behaves and is pending legal review. It is not a finalized legal privacy policy.
URL analysis goes through the PageDNA backend, which only fetches the address you provide. The demo page is analyzed locally in your browser.
After a URL analysis, PageDNA sends only the normalized hostname (for example, example.com) from its server to Ahrefs to retrieve Domain Rating. It does not send the URL path, query parameters, cookies, page content, or browser identifiers. Ahrefs processes that request under its own terms and privacy policy.
PageDNA never asks for a login or a user profile. Exports (PNG, SVG, JSON) are only generated when you choose to download them.
PageDNA sets no cookies and uses no analytics, tracking, or third-party trackers. It only uses browser localStorage (not a cookie) to store your language preference, consent choice, and theme settings; this data stays on your device and is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear your browser localStorage to reset all preferences.
