Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how The AI Standings ("we", "us") handles information when you visit this website.
Information we collect
Information you give us. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we store your email address and the date you signed up. If you use our contact form, we receive your name, email address and message.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited and time of visit) for security and performance. If analytics is enabled, we use Google Analytics to understand which pages are popular. It uses cookies and collects data such as approximate location, device type and pages viewed.
Tools on this site. The quiz, comparison tool and cost calculator run entirely in your browser. We don't store your answers.
Advertising and cookies
We use third-party advertising companies, including Google AdSense, to serve ads when you visit this site.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies lets it and its partners serve ads to you based on your visits to this and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
- To learn more about how Google uses data, see How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland will be asked for consent before personalised ads or non-essential cookies are used, via a consent message from a Google-certified consent management platform.
We also store a small preference in your browser (localStorage) to remember whether you chose light or dark mode.
How we use information
We use information to send the newsletter you asked for, reply to your messages, keep the site secure, understand what content is useful, and show ads that keep the site free.
We do not sell your personal information.
Your choices and rights
- Unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in every email, or by contacting us.
- Depending on where you live (for example, the EU/UK under the GDPR, or California under the CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data. To make a request, contact us.
Data retention
We keep newsletter subscriptions until you unsubscribe. We keep contact messages for as long as needed to respond, and no longer than 24 months.
Children
This site isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information.
