Who runs nics.dev

nics.dev is operated by Triton IT, Netherlands (“we”, “us”). This page explains what we log when someone visits a domain's for-sale lander, and what the seller portal at app.nics.dev stores about sellers.

What the landers log

Every visit to a for-sale lander (a domain pointed at our nameservers) is logged for traffic stats and abuse prevention. Landers set no cookies. We log:

• A hashed IP address. The raw IP is combined with a daily salt and hashed before it is stored; we cannot reverse it back to the visitor's IP.
• The user-agent string, used to classify human vs. bot traffic.
• The referer, if the browser sent one.
• Timestamp and the domain visited.

If a visitor submits a make-offer form, we additionally store the name, email, offer amount and message they provide, and email them to the domain's seller so the two of you can talk directly.

What the seller portal stores

If you sign up as a seller, we store your account email, the domains you add, their nameserver-verification status, the offers received on them, and aggregate (bot-filtered) visitor statistics per domain. We do not sell or share this data with third parties, and we run no advertising trackers on landers or on this marketing site.

Cookies and analytics

This marketing site and the seller portal use Tidings, our own first-party product analytics: no advertising network, no data sold or shared with third parties, no tracking across other people's websites. For-sale landers run no analytics script at all — their traffic is counted server-side from the logs described above, which is why landers set no cookies.

• tidings_anon_id — a random id for your browser, so a repeat visit counts as one visitor instead of five. Stored for 13 months, on .nics.dev so that arriving here and signing up at app.nics.dev read as one visit. It holds no personal data and is not a fingerprint.
• nics_did — the same id under the name our previous tracker used. It is migrated into tidings_anon_id on your next visit, is no longer written, and expires by itself.

What we record against that id: the page path, the referring site, any campaign tags in the link you arrived from, and — on these public pages only, never inside the signed-in portal — where clicks land and how far down a page people scroll. A click record carries the visible label of the button or link; it never carries anything you type into a form. We do not store your IP address with these events. Logging in additionally sets the session and CSRF cookies the portal needs to keep you signed in.

Hosting

Infrastructure runs in the European Union. We do not use third-party ad or analytics scripts anywhere, and none at all on for-sale landers.

Your rights

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data at any time by emailing privacy@nics.dev. Deleting a domain from your account stops its lander and removes its stored visit logs.
