Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to TechDailyAI ("we", "us", or "the site") and to the website at techdailyai.com. It covers visitors from the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, Canada, and elsewhere. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Who we are

TechDailyAI is a tech lifestyle publication operated by Tapabrata Biswas. For any privacy question, or to exercise the rights described below, email tapabrata@techdailyai.com. We are the data controller for the personal information described in this policy.

2. Information we collect

We collect three kinds of information.

Information you give us

• Email address, when you subscribe to our newsletter.
• Your name and message, when you contact us by email or a contact form.

Information we collect automatically

• Device and usage data, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, pages viewed, and the site that referred you.
• Cookies and similar technologies, used for analytics and advertising, as described in the Cookies section below.

Information from third parties

• Our analytics and advertising partners may share aggregated or technical data with us so we can understand traffic and measure ads.

3. How we use your information

• To send the newsletter you asked for, and let you unsubscribe.
• To reply to your messages and provide support.
• To run, secure, and improve the site and its content.
• To measure traffic and understand which articles are useful.
• To display advertising that keeps the site free.
• To meet our legal obligations and enforce our terms.

4. Legal bases for processing (UK and EEA visitors)

If you are in the UK or EEA, we rely on these legal bases under the UK GDPR and EU GDPR:

• Consent, for the newsletter and for non-essential cookies. You can withdraw it at any time.
• Legitimate interests, for keeping the site secure, understanding traffic, and improving what we publish, balanced against your rights.
• Legal obligation, where the law requires us to keep or disclose information.

5. Cookies and tracking

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use a few different kinds:

• Essential cookies, which the site needs to work.
• Analytics cookies, which help us count visits and see how pages perform.
• Advertising cookies, set by our ad partners to measure and, where permitted, personalise ads.

Where the law requires it, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies, and you can change your choice at any time through our cookie settings or your browser controls. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.

6. Advertising and analytics partners

We work with third-party services to run ads and measure traffic. These partners may collect information through cookies and similar technologies and process it under their own privacy policies. Depending on your consent and region, ads may be personalised based on your activity across sites. Our partners may include display advertising and analytics providers; their policies govern how they use the data they collect, and we encourage you to review them.

7. How we share your information

We do not sell your personal information for money. We share information only in these limited ways:

• Service providers, such as our email platform, hosting, analytics, and advertising partners, who process data on our behalf.
• Legal reasons, when we must comply with the law, enforce our terms, or protect rights, safety, and property.
• Business transfers, if the site is ever sold or merged, in which case your information may be part of that transfer.

Some advertising practices may count as "sharing" for targeted advertising under certain US state laws. See your rights below for how to opt out.

8. Your rights and choices

UK and EEA (GDPR)

You have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct or delete it.
• Restrict or object to certain processing.
• Receive your data in a portable format.
• Withdraw consent at any time.
• Complain to a supervisory authority, such as the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) or your local EU authority.

California (CCPA and CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to:

• Know what personal information we collect and how we use it.
• Request access to, or deletion of, your personal information.
• Correct inaccurate personal information.
• Opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for targeted advertising.
• Limit the use of sensitive personal information.
• Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

To opt out of targeted advertising, email tapabrata@techdailyai.com or use the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" control where offered. We also honour Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where required.

Canada (PIPEDA)

• You can request access to, and correction of, your information.
• You can withdraw consent, subject to legal or contractual limits.
• You can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

To exercise any of these rights, email tapabrata@techdailyai.com. We may need to verify your identity first, and we'll respond within the time the law allows.

9. How long we keep your information

We keep newsletter data until you unsubscribe, and contact messages for as long as we need them to handle your request and keep reasonable records. Analytics and advertising data are retained according to our partners' policies. We delete or anonymise information when we no longer have a reason to keep it.

10. International data transfers

We operate online, and your information may be processed in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where we transfer information out of the UK or EEA, we rely on safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision so your data stays protected.

11. Children's privacy

This site is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has given us information, email us and we will delete it.

12. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to keep your data safe.

13. Links to other sites

Our articles link to other websites, including the products we review. Those sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for how they handle your information.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site or the law changes. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above, and significant changes will be made clear on this page.
