About byt.la

Our Mission

byt.la was created to provide a fast, reliable, and privacy-focused URL shortening service that anyone can use.

We believe URL shorteners should be simple, secure, and transparent.

Unlike many URL shorteners that track every click and sell your data, we're committed to protecting your privacy while providing powerful analytics for legitimate use cases.

Our Privacy Commitment

  • We never sell your data to third parties
  • Analytics data is used only to provide insights to link creators
  • We don't track users across different websites
  • All passwords are securely hashed with bcrypt
  • HTTPS encryption protects all data in transit
