HOW IT'S BUILT & HOW IT WORKS
Process summaryOur user brought a simple need: "Copy competitors' sites every night as all pages + images and keep them in an archive we can search back through."
We are not building it in this form. Copying and storing a site in full goes against the content's copyright and most sites' terms of use, and the user reviews and names on mirrored pages are personal data under KVKK and GDPR. Instead, Detector can watch the specific values you care about — prices, campaign copy, product lists — and keep only the change history.
all pages + images[10:20:00] SCOPE: Full site copy requested (2,400 pages).
[10:20:01] POLICY: robots.txt and terms of use forbid copying.
[10:20:01] BLOCK: Pages with personal data (reviews) cannot be stored.
[10:20:02] SUGGEST: Watch selected fields with Detector.
A site's content belongs to its owner; copying and storing all of it breaks most sites' terms of use.
Mirrored pages carry user reviews and names; storing them without consent breaks KVKK and GDPR.
Pick the field you care about; Detector keeps the change history of that value only.
THREAD & BUILD LOG
3 RepliesWe are rejecting this. Copying and storing a site in full goes against the content's copyright and most sites' terms of use, and the reviews and names on mirrored pages are personal data. The history you actually need is possible a narrower way: watch the price, the campaign copy or the product list with Detector and every change is recorded with its old and new value.
Understood. What we really need is the campaign copy and the prices; setting it up with Detector.
SIMILAR SOLUTIONS
Alert me when one value on the page changes
The moment a price, a stock level or an exchange rate changes on any shop or market page, it fires a Telegram or Slack alert.
Redact personal data from a PDF for real
Permanently redact sensitive personal data in PDFs hundreds of pages long, with WebAssembly inside your browser, without sending them to any outside server.
Send Detector alerts to a Slack channel too
When an alert lands, trigger "Approve price" or "Skip" straight from a button in Slack.

all pages + imagesHOW DOES IT WORK?
Instead of a full copy, Detector watches specific values and keeps only the change history.

Good to Know
Instead of a full site copy, watch the values you care about with Detector; the change history stays in your dashboard.
