Privacy Policy

What we collect

We do not require you to create an account and we do not ask for personal information in order to read Autonomiq. The information collected automatically is the ordinary technical data your browser sends to any website: IP address, browser type and version, device and screen characteristics, referring page, the pages you view on this site, and the time and duration of your visit.

If you voluntarily contact us through our contact form or by email, we receive whatever you choose to send: typically your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use that solely to respond to you and to act on corrections, and we do not add it to a marketing list.

Cookies and similar technologies

This site uses advertising cookies only. We do not operate an analytics product such as Google Analytics, so no analytics cookies are set by us. Advertising cookies (Google AdSense and its partners) are used to select and measure the advertisements you see.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendor cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.com.

Your browser also lets you block or delete cookies directly. Blocking advertising cookies will not prevent you from reading anything on this site.

Legal basis and your rights

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, our legal basis for processing advertising data is your consent, which you may withdraw at any time, and our legitimate interest in operating and funding the site. You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you, request its correction or erasure, object to or restrict processing, and lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected, to request deletion, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell personal information as that term is ordinarily understood. To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected] and we will respond within the period required by applicable law.

Data retention, security, and children

We do not collect or retain analytics data, because we do not run an analytics product. Correspondence you send us is retained only as long as needed to resolve the matter you raised. This site is served over HTTPS, but no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Autonomiq is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Third-party links and changes to this policy

Our articles link to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites, and we encourage you to read their policies. If we change this policy we will update the date shown on this page; material changes will be described in the text rather than made silently.

Questions about this policy can be sent to [email protected].
