Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

Information you give us. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect the email address you provide. If you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the message you send.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the site, Knowlegic and certain service providers may collect standard technical data, such as pages viewed, date and time of your visit, approximate location derived from your IP address, device and browser type, referring site or link, and server-log information. Some analytics technologies are used only after you provide consent, as described in Section 3.

2. How we use information

We use the information described above to:

• operate, maintain, and secure the site;
• understand how the site is used and which articles are read, so we can improve our content;
• send our newsletter to people who have subscribed;
• respond to messages you send us;
• display advertising (see section 3).

3. Cookies, beacons and advertising

We use Google Analytics to measure traffic. Analytics only runs if you accept it in the cookie banner shown on your first visit. It is off by default, and nothing is set until you choose “Accept.” You can change your mind at any time:

We also use Vercel to host the site and measure basic performance. Vercel's analytics doesn't use cookies or store anything that identifies you individually, so it isn't part of the consent choice above.

Advertising (Google AdSense): We intend to display advertising through Google AdSense, but our AdSense account is still pending approval and no ads are currently being shown. This section will be updated with the relevant consent tool and opt-out details before any ads go live.

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no common industry standard for responding to it, so the site does not currently change its behaviour based on that signal.

4. How information is shared

We do not sell your information for money. We share it only with the service providers that help us run the site (section 5), and where required by law or to protect our rights.

If we begin showing advertising, some US state privacy laws may treat ad-related cookies as a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for targeted advertising. We'll add the relevant opt-out details here before that happens; the rights described in section 9 already apply regardless.

5. Services we rely on

We use Google Analytics (only after you consent, see section 3) for measurement, Vercel for site hosting and cookie-less performance analytics, and Resend for delivering our newsletter. We also use Google AdSense for advertising, though it is not yet active. These providers process data on our behalf as part of operating the site, under their own privacy terms.

6. How long we keep information

We keep newsletter email addresses until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them. We keep contact-form messages for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and for a reasonable period afterwards. Analytics data is retained according to our providers' standard retention periods.

7. Your choices

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in every email, change your cookie choice at any time using the button in section 3, and email us at contact@knowlegic.com to ask what data we hold about you or to request its deletion.

8. Rights in the EEA and UK

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data, to object to processing, and to data portability. Our lawful bases are your consent (for the newsletter and for Google Analytics) and our legitimate interest in running and securing the site. You may withdraw consent at any time using the button in section 3 (this stops Google Analytics from loading on any future visit until you accept again), and may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

9. Rights for US residents

Depending on your state, you may have the right to know what personal information we have collected, to request its deletion or correction, and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for targeted advertising. To exercise any of these rights, email us at contact@knowlegic.com. We will not discriminate against you for exercising them.

10. Rights under applicable Indian law

If you are in India, you may have rights under applicable data protection law, including rights relating to access, correction, updating and deletion of your personal data, and withdrawal of consent where processing is based on consent. You may contact us at contact@knowlegic.com to exercise applicable rights.

11. Where your information is processed

Knowlegic is operated from India. Our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. If you visit from outside those countries, your information may therefore be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions whose data-protection laws may differ from those in your country.

12. Children

Knowlegic is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “last updated” date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be noted more prominently.

14. Contact us

Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to contact@knowlegic.com or through our contact form.
