ProfitSonar Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-10-19

ProfitSonar is a browser extension that helps you track your own LinkedIn marketing and outreach, and a website (profitsonar.com) where you manage your account and plan and see reports on your progress. The extension works from the addresses (URLs) of LinkedIn pages, plus information you type or click yourself. This policy covers both.

ProfitSonar is owned and operated by hook123 LLC ("we", "us"), 1309 Coffeen Avenue, Ste 1200, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA.

What we collect

  • Your account: your email address and password. The password is stored only as a secure hash by our authentication provider. We use your email to sign you in, to send you confirmation and password-reset codes and, once you've confirmed it, to send you a short series of welcome emails about using ProfitSonar, and an occasional email when a new version of ProfitSonar is released. Every one of those emails has an unsubscribe link.

  • The address of your active LinkedIn tab, so the side panel can show information when that page is a LinkedIn profile and, while a session runs, tell which type of LinkedIn page it is (see Sessions below). If you grant access for linkedin.com, the panel sees the address as you move between LinkedIn pages, but only while it's open. Query strings and tracking parameters are removed.

  • Profiles you ping or track:

    • the profile URL
    • a label you give the profile, which you type yourself or fill in from the profile URL with the ↻ button (it may be the person's name)
    • when you pinged it (intentional visits)
    • when you started tracking it
    • the category, the date you connected and the date of your last contact, which you enter yourself
    • your notes
    • the pipeline and stage you assign, with the time of each stage change

  • Your setup answers, if you use the setup wizard on the website: the role and the objective you pick, and, only if you choose to answer, which LinkedIn plan you pay for (free, Premium, Sales Navigator or not sure). We use them to suggest categories and pipelines, and to understand which kinds of people ProfitSonar works for. You can change them by running setup again from Settings, and they're deleted with your account.

  • Tracked events, if you use them: the counters you set up on the website's Settings page (each one's name, colour, icon, whether it's switched on and any weekly goal), and every press of ▲ or ▼ on a counter in the side panel, stored as +1 or −1 with the time our server received it. We use them to show your progress towards your goals in the side panel and on your dashboard. Deleting a counter deletes its presses.

  • Sessions, if you turn them on: whether they're on, how long the timer counts down, and your daily goal with the date each goal was set. For each session, its start and its end (when you stop it or the timer runs out), stamped by our server, and, while it runs, the type of page in the active tab with the time each type began: a profile, Feed, Messaging, a company page and so on, or "outside LinkedIn". Never the page's address, and never which site outside LinkedIn you were on: the extension can't see other sites' addresses. Page types are only noted while the side panel is open. We use them to show you, on the website, how much of your session time went where.

  • Billing, if you buy a paid plan: payments are handled by Stripe. We store your plan, its status and renewal date, and the Stripe customer and subscription ids. Your card details go to Stripe directly; we never see or store them.

  • Messages you send us through the website's contact form: your name, email address and message.

  • Uninstall feedback, if you give it. When you remove the extension, your browser opens a short, optional survey on our website. The extension tells the page only its version number, nothing about you or your account. If you answer, we store the reasons you tick, what you write, that version number and, only if you choose to give it, your email address so we can reply. Your answers aren't linked to your account. We use them to understand why people leave and to improve ProfitSonar.

ProfitSonar never reads names or any other content from LinkedIn's pages. The only name it may hold is a label you set yourself. The ↻ suggestion works it out from the profile URL alone, and only when you click.

Browser history (optional "soft visits" feature)

If you turn on Soft visits in Settings, ProfitSonar asks for the browser's history permission. It then reads your browser's history only for LinkedIn profile pages (linkedin.com/in/...), and only while the side panel or Settings page is open. This is used to show when you last visited a profile.

  • History data is used only to show you that date. It is not stored by ProfitSonar, not synced to any backend, and not shared with anyone.
  • Page titles that the browser returns along with history entries are ignored.
  • Turning the feature off in Settings removes the permission.

The website

  • Sign-in cookies. Signing in on the website sets cookies that keep you signed in. They are strictly necessary and used for nothing else. The website sets no advertising cookies unless you accept them (see the LinkedIn Insight Tag below).
  • Bot check on the sign-up page. The page where you create an account uses Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a person, not a bot, is signing up. It runs only on that page, and without asking first, because it's needed to keep sign-ups secure. It sends Cloudflare your IP address and information about your browser and device, and how the page is used, so Cloudflare can tell people from bots. Our server then sends Cloudflare the check's result and your IP address to confirm it. Cloudflare says it uses this data only to provide the check, never for advertising. We don't send Cloudflare your email or your account data. See Cloudflare's Turnstile privacy addendum.
  • Reports on the website (your dashboard, Sessions and contact pages) are built from the same account data listed above, and only you can see them.
  • Visit statistics. We use Vercel Web Analytics to count page views. It uses no cookies and doesn't identify you or follow you across sites.
  • Google Analytics, only if you accept. The website asks before using Google Analytics. If you accept, it sets Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _ga_...) and sends Google the address of each page you view, your browser and device type, and your approximate location from your IP address, so we can see which pages are useful. When you buy a plan, it also tells Google about the purchase: the plan, monthly or yearly, the amount, currency and tax, any promotion code, and Stripe's reference for the checkout (never your card details). It's never used on the sign-in, sign-up or password-reset pages, and we don't send Google your email or your other account data. If you decline, nothing is sent to Google. Change your mind any time with Cookie settings at the foot of the website; withdrawing removes the cookies. See how Google uses this information.
  • LinkedIn Insight Tag, only if you accept. The same choice covers LinkedIn's Insight Tag, which we use to measure our ads on LinkedIn and to show them to people who visited the website. It runs only on the public pages of the website and on the setup page you see once, right after you sign up (not the sign-in pages or your account pages). On that setup page it tells LinkedIn that a sign-up happened, so we can count sign-ups from our ads. If you accept, it sends LinkedIn the address of each page you view, the referring page, your IP address, your browser and device type, and a timestamp, and it may set cookies (such as li_fat_id). If you're signed in to LinkedIn, LinkedIn can link the visit to your LinkedIn account; it shows us only totals of at least 300 people, never who you are. We don't send LinkedIn your email or your account data. If you decline, nothing is sent to LinkedIn. Withdrawing with Cookie settings removes the tag's cookies on our domain; cookies LinkedIn keeps on linkedin.com are managed in your LinkedIn ad settings. See LinkedIn's Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy.

What ProfitSonar does not do

  • Read or copy any content from LinkedIn pages, such as names, profiles, posts, messages, connection status or metrics.
  • Insert anything into, or change, LinkedIn's pages.
  • Send any request to LinkedIn, or automate any action on LinkedIn.
  • Keep any copy of your browsing history, or watch sites other than LinkedIn.

Where it is stored

  • In your ProfitSonar account. Your settings, the profiles you ping or track, your tracked events and your sessions are stored in ProfitSonar's database, hosted by Supabase, and sent there over HTTPS. Each account's data is only accessible to that account. You can export it at any time from the Settings page.
  • In your browser, only your sign-in session (in the extension's storage, and in the website's cookies if you sign in there), plus, in the extension, a small note of which weekly goals have already been celebrated in that browser, so each celebration plays once (it holds only the counter's id and the week, and earlier weeks are dropped), the id of the last session whose run-out timer you cleared, and whether you've hidden the side panel's "Replay the demo" card, and, on the website, your cookie choice and, if you accepted, the Google Analytics and LinkedIn Insight Tag cookies. Soft-visit history is never stored or sent anywhere.

Sharing

We do not sell, rent or share your data with third parties. These service providers process data on our behalf, only to provide their service:

  • Supabase hosts the database and the sign-in service.
  • Vercel hosts the website.
  • Cloudflare runs the bot check (Turnstile) on the website's sign-up page.
  • Stripe processes payments for paid plans.
  • Google provides Google Analytics on the website, only if you accept its cookies.
  • LinkedIn provides the Insight Tag on the website's public pages and first setup page, only if you accept its cookies. LinkedIn also uses this data under its own privacy policy.
  • Resend delivers account emails (sign-up and reset codes, security notices) and support emails.
  • HighLevel (GoHighLevel) is our customer records system and sends the welcome emails and the release emails. It receives your email address once you confirm it, whether you have a paid plan, and the role and objective you pick in setup.

We do not use your account data or anything the extension sees for advertising, and we do not use it for creditworthiness or lending decisions. The only advertising use is the LinkedIn Insight Tag on the website, and only if you accept it.

Limited Use

ProfitSonar uses user data only to provide its single purpose: helping you track your own LinkedIn marketing and outreach progress. Our use of this data complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Deleting your data

  • Settings → Delete account (in the extension or on the website) permanently deletes your account straight away, with everything in it: your settings, the profiles you ping or track, their notes and history, your tracked events, your sessions and your setup answers. A paid plan is cancelled first.
  • It needs a recent sign-in or a code. To protect you if someone else gets hold of a signed-in browser, deleting your account from a sign-in more than 24 hours old needs a 6-digit code we email you first (or sign out and in again, then delete). Changing your plan or opening the billing portal works the same way.
  • We email you when it's done. Right after the account is deleted, we send one last email to its address, "Your ProfitSonar account was deleted", so you'd know if it wasn't you. Sending it is the last use of the address; it isn't kept for this.
  • If you can't sign in (you've lost both your password and access to your email), contact us. We'll check it's your account before we delete it, for example with a Stripe receipt if you paid, and then delete it for you.
  • What we keep after that. Some records outlive the account, because the law requires them or because we need them for audits and to resolve disputes such as chargebacks:
    • Payments: Stripe keeps its payment records.
    • Messages: emails you sent us and messages from the contact form.
    • Uninstall feedback: it isn't linked to your account, so deleting the account doesn't delete it. If you left your email with it and want it deleted, contact us.
    • Our customer record: HighLevel keeps your email address and a note that you deleted your account. We remove your plan and setup answers from it, and it stops sending you email.
  • Sign-ups never confirmed. If you sign up but never confirm your email address, we delete that account automatically 7 days after sign-up. You can sign up again at any time.
  • Settings → Clear all deletes all of your contacts but keeps the account, your tracked events and your sessions. You can also delete contacts or notes one at a time, and delete a tracked event counter, with all its presses, from the website's Settings page.
  • Uninstalling the extension removes your sign-in session and its note of celebrated goals from the browser and opens the optional survey described above. Your account stays until you delete it.
