Privacy Policy

Our Commitment to Privacy

Effective date: September 21, 2026

At The AI Feed, you can read the site without creating an account. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, what services receive it, and how you can control it.

Data We Collect

  • Messages and correction requests: If you send a contact message or correction, we collect the email address, message details, category, page context, and security-check token you submit.
  • Analytics: We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand aggregate page readership and site performance. Cloudflare Web Analytics is cookie-free, does not use localStorage, and does not receive custom click or conversion events from our site.
  • Product analytics and session recording: We use PostHog to measure page visits, navigation and reading paths, clicks on articles, categories, models, companies, sources, sharing, and paid links, form submissions, errors the page runs into and how long it takes to load, and to record browsing sessions. These events include the page, the element clicked, device and browser information, approximate location, referring domain, and campaign labels from the URL. Typed text in form fields is masked in recordings. PostHog stores an anonymous identifier and session information in your browser.
  • Advertising choices: We maintain Google AdSense publisher verification and ads.txt records, but Google-served display ads are not currently loaded while visual ad placements are disabled. If display ads are enabled later, Google AdSense may serve Google-managed ads according to the choices described below.
  • Browser storage: PostHog stores an anonymous identifier and session information in cookies and localStorage while analytics is on, and we store your privacy choice in localStorage for up to 180 days. Ad-region or consent storage is used only if Google-served display ads are enabled later.
  • Form security: We use Cloudflare Turnstile to reduce spam and abuse on forms. Turnstile processes browser and request signals such as IP address, user agent, TLS fingerprint, sitekey, and origin for bot detection.
  • Basic technical data: Our hosting and security providers may process normal server request data, such as IP address, browser, device, URL, referring page, and timestamps, to deliver and secure the site.

Cookies And Browser Storage

Cloudflare Web Analytics loads by default because it is cookie-free and does not store or read browser storage to identify individual users. It measures aggregate page traffic and performance rather than custom events such as outbound clicks or form submissions.

PostHog measurement and session recording load by default and use cookies and similar browser storage. By continuing to use the site you agree to that measurement. Use Your privacy choices in the footer to opt out at any time; we keep that choice in this browser for up to 180 days. A Global Privacy Control signal from your browser turns PostHog off without any further action. Articles, rankings, and links work the same either way.

If we enable Google-served display ads later, visitors in the EEA, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland will manage Google-served ad consent through Google’s certified consent message. Outside those regions, we will add an appropriate control before loading optional Google-served display ads where a consent or opt-out control is required.

Cloudflare explains Web Analytics at Cloudflare Web Analytics and Turnstile-specific processing in its Turnstile Privacy Addendum. Google explains advertising data use at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

How We Use Data

We use data to:

  • operate, secure, and debug the site;
  • respond to messages and corrections;
  • measure aggregate readership and improve editorial/product decisions;
  • detect spam, abuse, and automated form submissions;
  • disclose paid relationships and understand aggregate readership around monetized pages.

When We Share Data

We share data with service providers that help run the site, including PostHog, Cloudflare Web Analytics, Cloudflare Pages/Workers, Cloudflare Turnstile, Google AdSense when display ads are enabled, and message-processing infrastructure. These providers process data for hosting, security, analytics, session recording, advertising, form protection, and message handling. PostHog processes analytics and recording data on our behalf; see PostHog’s privacy policy for how it handles that data.

We do not sell personal information. Cloudflare Web Analytics loads by default as a cookie-free analytics service. Google AdSense receives ad-request data only when Google-served display ads are enabled and allowed for the visitor’s region and choice.

The AI Feed may use advertising, affiliate links, sponsorships, or paid product links. Paid relationships will be disclosed near the relevant link or placement. Revenue relationships do not control our editorial rankings, source notes, or corrections.

When you click an outbound paid or affiliate link, the destination site may collect information under its own privacy policy. PostHog records that the click happened, along with the partner, placement, and destination domain, while Cloudflare Web Analytics measures page-level traffic only.

Current status: Google-served display ads are disabled. We may still use AdSense account verification and ads.txt so the site is ready for review or future monetization, but those records do not load display ads by themselves.

If Google AdSense ads are enabled and eligible for your region, Google may process ad-request data and use cookies or similar technologies according to Google’s advertising and privacy policies. For visitors in the EEA, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, we use Google’s certified consent message for Google-served ads. Outside those regions, we will provide an appropriate control before loading optional Google-served display ads where one is required.

Your Choices And Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, objection, withdrawal of consent, or information about how your data is used. You can contact us through the Contact page to make a privacy request.

You can turn analytics and session recording off at any time with Your privacy choices in the footer, and we honor Global Privacy Control signals automatically.

If Google-served display ads are enabled later, visitors in the EEA, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland can use Google’s consent message where available to manage Google-served ad choices. Visitors elsewhere will receive an appropriate control where a consent or opt-out control is required.

Retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above, unless a longer period is required for legal, security, or operational reasons. Analytics retention is controlled in our Cloudflare Web Analytics and PostHog project settings.

Children

The AI Feed is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Security

We use HTTPS, spam protection, limited collection, and service-provider controls to protect data. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so please do not submit sensitive personal information through our forms.

International Processing

The AI Feed and its service providers may process data in the United States and other countries where they operate.

Changes

We will update this page when our privacy practices change. If a change materially affects how we collect, use, or share personal information, we will update the effective date and the notice on this page.
