Privacy Policy
What we collect, what we don’t, and what we do with it.
The short version
AIToolPickr collects minimal information from visitors. We do not sell, rent, or share personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. We use standard analytics to understand which guides are useful and which need improvement. That’s essentially it.
What we collect
Automatic data (every visitor)
- Standard web server logs (IP address, browser, referring URL, page requested, timestamp)
- Anonymized analytics data (pages visited, time on page, country-level location)
- Cookies set by WordPress and our caching layer for basic site functionality
Information you provide
- Email address (if you contact us via the address on our Contact page — used only to reply to you)
- Comments (if our theme has commenting enabled) — your name, email, and comment text become public alongside the comment
Third-party services
When you click an affiliate link on AIToolPickr, you are redirected to a third party (most commonly Amazon). Those third parties have their own privacy policies that govern any data they collect about your visit. We do not control or have access to that data beyond aggregated commission reports.
This site may also load resources from common content delivery networks (Google Fonts, jsDelivr, etc.). Those services collect standard web-server data subject to their own privacy policies.
Cookies
We use cookies for basic site functionality (page caching, remembering your preferences). We also use Google Analytics 4 (through Google Site Kit), which sets analytics cookies to measure which pages are read, how visitors arrive and their approximate location (country or region), subject to the choice you make in our cookie banner. Where Google AdSense is enabled, Google may also set advertising cookies to show ads; you can manage personalised ads on Google’s Ads Settings page. When you click an Amazon affiliate link, Amazon sets its own cookie to attribute any qualifying purchase to us; that cookie is governed by Amazon’s privacy notice, and we only receive aggregated, non-identifying earnings reports. You can decline non-essential cookies in our banner or disable cookies in your browser settings; the site will continue to work normally.
Your rights
If you are in the European Union (GDPR), the United Kingdom (UK-GDPR), or California (CCPA/CPRA), you have specific rights regarding your personal data, including:
- Right to know what data we have about you
- Right to request deletion of that data
- Right to opt out of any data sales (we do not sell data, but the right exists)
- Right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights
To exercise any of these rights, email us at info@aitoolpickr.com. We respond within 30 days.
