ShortURLShort links and previews are public
A short link can be opened by anyone who knows or guesses it. The destination address, page title and description may be displayed on a public preview page and included in search engines. Do not submit password-reset links, access tokens, private documents or other confidential URLs.
When safety checks are enabled, the destination URL may be sent to configured reputation providers. To build a public preview, the server may also visit the destination to read its title and description.
