Information We Collect

How We Use Information

AI and User Data

We do not use your contact messages, inquiry details, or subscription data to train general-purpose AI models. If that ever changes, this policy should be updated before that processing begins.

Cookies and Advertising

We use cookies for basic site functionality and, where enabled, for analytics and advertising. Third-party advertising and analytics providers may set their own cookies. You can control cookies through your browser settings, and where required we will provide a consent mechanism. If advertising is served through Google, you can review and adjust ad personalization through Google's ad settings.

Service Providers

We may use service providers such as hosting providers, email and newsletter providers, analytics providers, advertising networks, and security tools. These providers process information as needed to provide their services to us and to you.

Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell personal information for money. Some advertising or analytics cookies may be considered "sharing" for targeted advertising under certain laws; where required, we provide a way to opt out. If our practices change, this policy and the site controls will be updated before that activity begins.

Retention

We keep contact, inquiry, subscription, and security records for as long as needed to provide the service, respond to requests, maintain business records, prevent abuse, comply with law, and enforce our Terms.

Your Choices and Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information by emailing hello@theaihobbyguy.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights such as the right to know what personal information is collected, to correct or delete it, to data portability, to opt out of certain sale/sharing or targeted advertising, and not to be discriminated against for exercising privacy rights. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

Children

The AI Hobby Guy is a general-audience site and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 provided personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Security

We use reasonable access controls and site security tools to protect information. No website or storage system is perfectly secure, so users should also protect their own devices and email accounts.

International Users

The site is operated from the United States. If you use it from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States and by service providers in other locations.

Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
