Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 4 July 2025

At PlagiarismRemovalServices.com we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect from you, how we use and safeguard it, and your rights in relation to this information. By using our website and services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

Personal Information

When you use our services or contact us, we may collect personal details such as your name, email address, phone number, and affiliation (university or institution). For example, when you fill out our Submit Work form or request a quote, we ask for contact information to communicate with you about your project.

Document Files and Content

If you use our plagiarism checking or removal services, we will collect the documents or text you submit. These files may include research papers, theses, dissertations, or other academic writings and can contain sensitive intellectual content. We understand the sensitivity of this material and treat it as confidential (see the section below on confidentiality).

Usage Data

Like many websites, we also gather basic technical information when you visit our site. This may include your IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and the time spent on our site. We typically use cookies or similar technologies to collect this data (see the section below on cookies). This information does not directly identify you, but it helps us analyze site traffic and improve user experience.

How We Use Your Information

Providing and Improving Services

We use your document files to perform plagiarism checks (e.g., via Turnitin/Drillbit/Plagiarism CheckerX) and to carry out plagiarism removal (manual rewriting/paraphrasing and editing). Your personal contact information is used to send you service results (such as plagiarism reports and edited documents), communicate about revisions, and deliver customer support. We also use contact details to notify you of service progress or any issues.

Communication

We may send emails or messages to respond to your inquiries, confirm your orders, provide updates on your project, and solicit feedback after service completion. If you subscribe to any newsletter or updates (if offered), we will use your email for that purpose. You can opt out of marketing or non-essential communications at any time (see the section below on your choices).

Legal and Compliance

We may process and retain personal information as required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, or as otherwise permitted by law. For instance, maintaining transaction records for accounting and tax purposes, or using your information to verify that use of our service abides by our Terms & Conditions (e.g., no fraudulent use).

We will not use your personal data for any purpose unrelated to the services you requested without your consent. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

Plagiarism Checking and Third-Party Tools

As part of our service, we utilize reputable plagiarism detection software (such as Turnitin, Drillbit, and PlagiarismCheckerX) to scan your documents for similarity. We want to reassure you of the following:

No Repository Submission

We use these tools in modes that do not store your document in any public or academic repository. This means your paper will not be added to a database that future plagiarism checks could see. We understand how critical this is for academic work (to avoid self-plagiarism), and we configure our tools to safeguard your content.

Data Shared with Tools

Only the necessary content (typically the text of your document) is uploaded to the plagiarism checker tools. These third-party tools operate under strict privacy agreements. We do not provide them with your personal details beyond what is needed for the check. The output we receive is a similarity report, which we then share with you and use to guide plagiarism removal.

Confidentiality with Editors

If our team uses additional tools (e.g., grammar or reference checkers) to assist in editing, the same confidentiality principles apply. We carefully vet any third-party software for privacy compliance.

By using our service, you acknowledge that your content may be processed with such tools. We ensure this process is secure and solely for the purpose of delivering the service you requested.

Confidentiality and Document Security

We recognize that the documents you trust us with are the result of your hard work and may contain unpublished research or personal academic work. Your content’s confidentiality is our top priority.

Access Controls

Only authorized personnel on our team (such as the plagiarism analysts and editors assigned to your work) will access your documents. Every team member is bound by confidentiality agreements and ethical guidelines to protect client data. We never share your document or its contents with any third party except as needed to perform the services (for example, uploading to Turnitin as explained above, or if required by law in exceptional cases).

No Ownership Claim

You retain full ownership and authorship of the content you submit. We do not claim any rights over your work. The edits and suggestions we provide are intended to improve your document, but they remain your ideas and content. We will never publish, distribute, or use your work for any purpose other than providing plagiarism removal/checking to you.

Data Retention and Deletion

We store your documents and personal data on our secure systems only for as long as necessary to fulfill the service and for a reasonable period thereafter. This allows us to accommodate any follow-up questions, additional editing requests, or quality assurance. After that, we delete or anonymize your files from our active systems. Specifically, completed project files are routinely deleted from our servers [after 30 days of project closure] to ensure your research is not retained indefinitely. (Aggregate data like word counts or turnaround times may be kept for internal analytics, but not in any way that identifies or reproduces your content.) If you request immediate deletion of your documents upon project completion, we will honor that request.

Third-Party Confidentiality

In cases where payment processors or communication services are involved (for example, if you make an online payment or we send you a report via email or WhatsApp), those third parties will receive only the information required (payment details or your email address and name or phone number). They are not permitted to use this information for anything except providing the relevant service. We ensure any third-party service providers we work with are reputable and have their own privacy and data security standards in place.

In summary, we treat your documents with the same care as if they were our own: securely, privately, and with respect for your intellectual property.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance user experience and analyze web traffic. Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit our site. Here’s how we use them:

Essential Cookies

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function (e.g., to remember your login session if our site has account features, or to keep track of items in an order form). These cannot be disabled as they are crucial for site performance.

Analytics Cookies

We use analytics tools (like Google Analytics or similar) that set cookies to collect information about how visitors use our site. This information includes pages visited, time on site, and other usage statistics. We use it in aggregate form to understand and improve our website’s performance and content. These analytics cookies do not collect personal information like your name or email – they focus on user behavior in general.

Preference Cookies

If applicable, our site might use cookies to remember your preferences (for example, your chosen language or font size).

Your Choices

When you first visit our site, you may see a cookies notice or banner (if required by law in your region). You can choose to accept or reject non-essential cookies. Additionally, you can control cookies through your browser settings. Most web browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. However, be aware that disabling cookies may affect certain features of our site (for instance, forms might not remember your inputs, etc.).

We currently do not use cookies for targeted advertising on our site (and we do not share cookie data for others’ advertising purposes). If that changes in the future, we will update this policy and seek consent as needed.

How We Protect Your Information

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to guard your personal data and documents against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our security practices include:

Data Encryption

Our website is secured via HTTPS, meaning information you transmit to us (such as file uploads or form submissions) is encrypted in transit. Internally, sensitive files and data are stored in encrypted formats or within access-controlled environments.

Secure Infrastructure

We use reputable hosting providers and cloud services with robust security protocols (firewalls, intrusion detection, regular security patching, etc.). Access to the servers and databases is limited to key personnel and protected by strong authentication.

Employee Training and Policies

Every team member at PlagiarismRemovalServices.com is trained on data privacy and security. We have strict policies in place to prevent any unauthorized use of client data. For example, team members will never ask for your account passwords to university systems or anything unrelated to our service scope. They handle your documents offline in secure local environments when performing edits and run plagiarism checks only through official software.

Payments Security

If you make payments through our site, we use secure, PCI-compliant payment processors. We do not store your full credit card details on our servers. Payment data is transmitted directly and securely to the payment gateway for processing.

In the unlikely event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you and the appropriate authorities as required by law.

Your Rights and Choices

Access and Update

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you. If you have submitted work through our site, you can request a copy of the personal data and documents you provided. We will provide this within a reasonable timeframe. If any information is incorrect or has changed (for instance, you want to update your contact email), please let us know and we will correct it.

Deletion

You may request deletion of your personal data and/or documents from our records. For example, if you’ve finished using our service and want all your files removed, contact us at our email (provided below). Unless we are required to keep certain data for legal reasons (such as payment records for financial regulations), we will comply with your deletion request and confirm once completed. Keep in mind, if you request deletion of data essential to our service (like an ongoing project file), we will no longer be able to continue that service.

Objection or Restriction

You have the right to object to or ask us to restrict processing of your data in certain circumstances. For instance, you can opt out of any direct marketing emails (and we make it easy via an “unsubscribe” link in such emails). If you believe we are processing any information unlawfully, you can request a pause on usage until resolved.

Consent Withdrawal

Where we rely on your consent to process data (such as if we ever request to use a success story or testimonial with your permission), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing done before the withdrawal.

Non-Discrimination

We will never discriminate or retaliate against you for exercising any of these privacy rights. Our service quality and availability will remain the same.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information given below. For your security, we may need to verify your identity (for example, by confirming your email address or other details) before fulfilling certain requests, especially those involving access to or deletion of data.
