Privacy
Your trust should be visible. Your data should not be surprising.
HumanBacked collects only the information needed to publish endorsements, maintain the ranking, prevent abuse, and operate the service.
Information we collect
When you connect LinkedIn, we may receive your name, profile photo, email address, headline, and public profile link. We also store endorsements, ranking activity, basic page-view and LinkedIn-click counts, and technical identifiers used to prevent duplicate or fraudulent endorsements.
Payments
Payments are processed by Stripe. HumanBacked receives payment status and transaction identifiers, but does not store your full card number.
How we use and share data
We use this information to operate HumanBacked, show public endorsements you choose to attach your identity to, support the ranking, and protect the service. We share data only with providers needed to run these functions, such as LinkedIn, Stripe, and our hosting providers. We do not sell personal information.
Your choices
You can choose not to attach your LinkedIn identity to an endorsement. You may also request access, correction, or deletion of information associated with your account by contacting the site owner through HumanBacked.
Updates
This notice may change as HumanBacked develops. Material changes will be reflected on this page. Last updated September 5, 2026.
