UK GDPR, EU GDPR & PECR Compliance Notice (Safe-by-Design)

• Stateless On-Demand Processor: This Actor is an ephemeral, on-demand software utility that executes within the user's isolated Apify container. The Actor developer does not store, aggregate, or resell any scraped datasets or personal data.
• Built-in gdprSafeMode (auto | strict | off): By default (auto), when a UK or EEA domain (.uk, .co.uk, .eu, .de, .fr, etc.) is detected, the Actor automatically filters out named personal emails (firstname.lastname@) and personal LinkedIn profile URLs (/in/), returning only non-personal corporate role endpoints (info@, sales@, contact@, enquiries@), corporate /company/ links, and website technology stack metadata.
• Controller Responsibility: Users disabling gdprSafeMode act as Data Controllers and are solely responsible for establishing a valid lawful basis (such as UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) Legitimate Interests for corporate subscribers) and complying with UK PECR / EU ePrivacy rules.
