We collect personal data from you in various ways, such as:

When you visit the website, we automatically collect certain information about your device, browser, and activity, such as your IP address, operating system, browser type, pages viewed, time spent, and other similar data. We use cookies and other similar technologies to facilitate this data collection. You can learn more about how we use cookies in our Cookie Policy.
When you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address and your name (if you provide it) to send you news, guides, and reviews about the tech industry.

When you click on any of the affiliate links on the website, we may receive a commission from the third-party websites that you visit or purchase from. We do not collect any personal data from you when you click on these links, but the third-party websites may have their own privacy policies that you should review before providing any personal data to them.

We do not collect any sensitive personal data from you, such as your race, ethnicity, religion, health, or biometric data. We also do not collect any personal data from children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have collected any personal data from a child under 13, we will delete it as soon as possible.

Use of Data

We use your personal data for various purposes, such as:

To provide and improve the website and the services, such as by displaying content that is relevant and interesting to you, by troubleshooting technical issues, by enhancing the security and performance of the website and the services, and by developing new features and functionalities.
To communicate with you, such as by sending you newsletters, updates, promotions, surveys, or other information that you may be interested in, by responding to your inquiries, requests, or feedback, and by notifying you of any changes to the website, the services, or this privacy policy.
To analyze and measure the website and the services, such as by using Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to understand how you and other users interact with the website and the services, by generating reports and statistics, and by testing and optimizing the website and the services.
To comply with legal obligations, such as by responding to lawful requests from authorities, by enforcing our terms and conditions, by protecting our rights and interests, and by preventing fraud, abuse, or illegal activities.

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason that is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and explain the legal basis that allows us to do so.

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for your personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the personal data, the purposes for which we use the personal data, and the applicable legal requirements.

Protection Measures

We are committed to protecting your personal data and ensuring its security, integrity, and confidentiality. We use various technical and organizational measures to safeguard your personal data, such as:

Encrypting the transmission of your personal data using SSL/TLS technology.
Storing your personal data on secure servers that are protected by firewalls and access controls.
Limiting the access to your personal data to our employees, contractors, and service providers who need to know it for the purposes described in this privacy policy and who are bound by contractual obligations to keep it confidential and use it only in accordance with our instructions.
Training our staff on the best practices of data protection and privacy.

However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal data. In the event of a breach of your personal data, we will notify you and the relevant authorities as required by law.

Third-party Affiliations

We may share your personal data with third parties in certain circumstances, such as:

We may use third-party service providers to help us operate the website and the services, such as hosting, analytics, email, or advertising. These service providers may have access to your personal data only to perform their tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
