Last updated October 22, 2026 · Picklink is a free, early-testing project.
The short version
Picklink keeps what it needs to convert your picks and show them again, and nothing more. It doesn't sell anything, show ads or track you across other sites.
What you give Picklink
- YouTube links you paste, and the video's public title and channel name.
- Text you paste, and screenshots you upload.
- Your location, worked out from your internet connection: country, state and the kind of network (for example, whether it's a VPN or a data center). Picklink uses it to check that it's allowed where you are, and to open the right sportsbook site for your state. It never asks for your device's precise location.
- Problem reports you choose to send, and the result you were looking at if you tick that box.
What Picklink does with it
- It uses trusted service providers to do the work: an AI service reads the video, text or screenshot for picks, and a sports-odds data service supplies current lines for the sportsbook links. They receive only what's needed for that, under their own privacy terms.
- It saves each converted video, text or screenshot and its result, so the same thing opens instantly next time and costs nothing to convert again.
- It counts how much each person uses per day, so everyone gets a fair share. It does this with a one-way code made from your network address that changes every day; your address itself isn't saved by Picklink, and the counts are deleted after two days.
- It keeps daily totals (for example, how many videos were converted) to plan capacity. These are numbers only, with no addresses or content.
- It doesn't place bets, see your sportsbook accounts, or get anything back from the sportsbooks.
Results are made by AI
The picks, summaries and slips Picklink shows are produced by AI and can be incomplete or wrong. See the Terms — always check every bet on the sportsbook before placing it.
How long things are kept
Converted videos, text, screenshots, their results and problem reports are deleted after 30 days. Daily totals (numbers only) are kept for 90 days.
Hosting and security
Picklink runs on a cloud hosting provider behind a security and network service that protects the site and provides the location check. Like most websites, these providers process your network address to deliver the page, under their own privacy terms.
What stays in your browser
Your Recent list, your 21+ confirmation and your state are kept only in your own browser. Clear them any time with "Clear" or your browser's settings.
What Picklink doesn't collect
No names, emails, payment details or sportsbook logins. No advertising or tracking cookies.
Please don't paste private things
Only paste betting picks. While Picklink is in early testing, the AI service it uses may keep and review what it's sent.
Questions or removal
To ask a question or have something you pasted removed sooner, use Report a problem at the bottom of the Picklink page and include the result you were looking at. We'll update this page as Picklink grows.
