1. Why we publish this
Trust requires sunlight. Once a year we publish a public report that answers: how many takedowns we did, how many government requests we received, what categories of abuse we saw, and how we handled them. The figures below are illustrative and will be replaced with real numbers in our next annual cycle.
2. Reporting period
This report covers January 1, 2026 — December 31, 2026. The next report is due in March 2027.
3. Content removals
By reason
- Phishing & impersonation: ~38%
- Sexually explicit / non-consensual: ~17%
- Spam / fake shops: ~16%
- IP infringement: ~14%
- Malware / harmful links: ~9%
- Other (hate speech, doxxing, harassment): ~6%
4. Account suspensions & terminations
- Most actions are page- or product-level removals, not account-wide.
- Permanent terminations are reserved for severe or repeated breaches — CSAM, organised fraud, repeated infringement after takedown.
- Of all suspensions in the period, around 11% were appealed and around 23% of those were restored on second review.
5. Government requests
We publish the number of requests we receive from law-enforcement and government bodies, broken down by country, request type (user data, content removal, preservation order), and the rate at which we comply, partially comply or push back.
- We require a valid legal process (subpoena, warrant, court order) for user-data requests.
- We notify the affected user where the law allows it.
- We don't provide bulk or backdoor access to user data to any government.
6. Paddle & payment-related requests
Because Paddle is our Merchant of Record, requests about billing data — card numbers, billing addresses, tax IDs — are handled by Paddle directly under Paddle's own transparency framework. Alllinks does not store this information.
7. Security incidents
We log security incidents (including ones with no user impact) and publish a high-level summary in this report. If a breach materially affects users, we notify them and the relevant data-protection authorities within 72 hours, as required by GDPR and similar laws.
8. Methodology
- Numbers are extracted from our moderation tooling and de-duplicated.
- A single account flagged by multiple reports counts once.
- Removals reversed on appeal are subtracted from the totals.
