CompetLab is operated by Mykola Shvab, IČO 22371079, Přístavní 1107/32, 170 00 Praha 7, Czech Republic, registered in the Czech Trade Licensing Register ('Company', 'we', 'our', 'us'). We are the controller of the personal information this Privacy Policy describes, and we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website located at competlab.com (the 'Site') and our software-as-a-service platform and related services (collectively, the 'Service').
By accessing or using our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service and hold certain information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent.
How you found us
When you sign up we record how you got here — any campaign tags in the link you clicked, the site that referred you, the page you landed on, which browser you're using, and your country. We use it to tell which of our own efforts actually work.
Your country is worked out from your IP address at that moment; the address itself isn't saved to your account. None of this is sold or shared, and it's deleted with your account.
Analytics
We use PostHog, hosted in the European Union, to understand how this site is used. Not sold, not shared. We measure every visitor, whether or not you accept analytics cookies — but not in the same way.
Without your acceptance, nothing is stored on your device and no identifier persists between visits; your IP address is used to derive your city and country and is then discarded rather than stored. Accepting adds returning-visitor recognition, a link to your account if you sign up, and session recording — with form inputs never captured and any domain you check with our free tools masked out of the recording. If you accept, the domain you check with a free tool is saved with that visit, so we can tell which checks lead people to sign up.
Inside the CompetLab app, analytics runs on every page, including before you sign in, without a separate cookie banner. Before you sign in, usage is measured without a persistent identifier — no analytics identifier is stored on your device. After you sign in, usage is keyed to your account. Some events are reported by our servers rather than by your browser. No session recording runs in the app. Our legal basis is legitimate interest in providing and improving the service.
Legal basis: signup attribution and anonymous cookieless analytics — legitimate interest in understanding how our own service is found and used. On the marketing site, session recording and any cross-visit identification run on consent.
5. Data Security
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your personal information. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
6. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:
- The right to access, update, or delete the personal information we have on you.
- The right to object to or restrict the processing of your personal information.
- The right to data portability.
- The right to withdraw consent at any time where we rely on your consent to process your personal information.
To exercise these rights, please contact us.
7. Third-Party Links
Our Service may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by us. We have no control over the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
8. Children's Privacy
Our Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you are a parent or guardian and become aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
