Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

AITEERA LLC, a limited liability company registered in Wyoming, USA ("AITEERA", "we", "us", or "our"), is the data controller responsible for the personal data described in this Privacy Policy. You can reach us at aiteerallc@gmail.com for any question or request about your personal data.

This Privacy Policy applies to this website (aiteera.com and its subpages) and to the WhatsApp and Calendly interactions described below. It does not apply to services or websites operated by third parties that we merely link to.

2. Personal Data We Collect

We keep data collection to what is needed to respond to you and run this website. We collect:

• WhatsApp messages: if you message us via the WhatsApp button on this site, your phone number and message content are sent to us directly through WhatsApp, and handled subject to Section 7 below.
• Calendly bookings: if you book a call via the "Book a Meeting" link, you are taken to Calendly's own website, where you provide your name, email address, and any notes you choose to add. Calendly shares your booking details with us so we can prepare for and conduct the call.
• Basic technical/server data: our hosting infrastructure automatically logs standard request data (such as IP address, browser type, and access times) for security, abuse prevention, and reliability. We do not use this data to build profiles of individual visitors.

3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

This website does not use cookies, and we do not run any analytics, advertising, or tracking scripts on it. We do not embed any third-party widget on this site that sets cookies in your browser.

The WhatsApp and Calendly links on this site take you to those providers' own websites in a new browser tab. Any cookies set there are set by WhatsApp (Meta) or Calendly on their own domains, under their own cookie and privacy policies, not this one, and we do not control them.

4. Legal Bases for Processing

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): when you voluntarily message us on WhatsApp or book a call via Calendly. You may withdraw consent at any time, as described in Section 8.
• Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): to respond to inquiries you initiate, to keep this website secure and reliable, and to follow up on conversations you started with us. We consider these interests balanced against your rights, since the data involved is limited and you initiated contact.
• Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): where we must retain or disclose information to comply with the law.

5. How We Use Your Information

• To respond to your inquiries and prepare for calls you book with us
• To provide quotes and information about our design, development, and AI consulting services
• To keep this website secure and functioning reliably
• To comply with legal obligations where applicable

6. Automated Decision-Making

We do not use your personal data for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you.

7. Third Parties We Share Information With

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with:

• WhatsApp (Meta Platforms, Inc.): if you choose to message us, your number and message are processed on Meta's platform under Meta's own privacy policy.
• Calendly, Inc.: if you book a call, your booking details are collected and processed by Calendly under Calendly's own privacy policy.
• Our website hosting provider: to serve this website and maintain basic security logs.
• Anyone else, only if required by law, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of AITEERA, our clients, or others.

8. International Data Transfers

AITEERA is based in the United States. If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the personal data described above will be processed in the United States and other countries where our third-party providers (Section 7) operate. Where required, we and our providers rely on appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent transfer mechanism, to protect data transferred internationally.

9. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected for, and the period depends on whether it relates to an inquiry or to a client engagement:

• Inquiries that do not lead to a client engagement: WhatsApp and Calendly conversation details are kept for up to 24 months after our last contact, then deleted or anonymized.
• Client engagements: for anyone who becomes a client, we retain the personal data and communications relevant to that engagement for the life of the engagement and for up to 10 years after it ends. This longer period reflects the statute of limitations for written contracts under Wyoming law (our governing law under our Terms of Service), so that records remain available to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim relating to the engagement if one is ever raised.
• Server logs: kept for a limited period for security purposes.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
• Request erasure of your data ("right to be forgotten")
• Restrict or object to certain processing, including for direct marketing
• Request a portable copy of data you provided to us
• Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority (for example, your national authority in the EU/EEA, or the ICO in the United Kingdom)

10a. Limits on These Rights

These rights are not absolute. In particular, we may decline or limit a request to erase, restrict, or object to processing of data connected to a client engagement where we need to keep it to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim, or to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation, consistent with the retention periods described in Section 9. Where we decline a request on this basis, we will tell you why.

11. How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of the rights above, email aiteerallc@gmail.com. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law (for example, one month under the GDPR, extendable in limited circumstances), and may ask you to verify your identity before acting on a request.

12. Children's Privacy

This website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us at aiteerallc@gmail.com and we will delete it.

13. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect the limited personal data we handle, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
