About chl.li

Chl.li is a simple, modern and privacy-friendly URL shortener.

Chl.li does not track nor store any personal information. The only data we store when you create a short link are the following:

  • the long URL
  • the short code (chl.li/xxxx)
  • the date created
  • the expiry date (if one has been set)

That's it.


Since we deeply care about privacy, chl.li does not track who, when or where someone clicked on a shortened link.


Thank you for using chl.li!
