Privacy Policy

Last Updated: November 20, 2024

CPU Bytes is a platform that publishes technical content and offers digital products, AI learning guides, and software tools. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By visiting CPU Bytes or using any of our services, you agree to the terms described below.

Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways. First, you may give it to us directly when you subscribe to the newsletter, purchase an AI Guide, create an account, or contact us. This may include your name, email address, payment details, or any message you send through our forms.

Second, some information is collected automatically as you browse the site. This includes your IP address, browser details, device type, pages you view, and how you interact with the website. We use analytics tools to understand how people use the platform and improve the experience.

If you upload content or send feedback, we store the information you provide so we can respond and maintain support records.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to operate and improve CPU Bytes. This includes delivering blog content, handling purchases, providing access to AI Guides, managing user accounts for the SEO Agent platform, processing payments, sending updates, and offering customer support. We also use the data to monitor performance, fix issues, and secure the website.

Payment information is processed by third-party providers such as Stripe or Gumroad. CPU Bytes does not store full credit card numbers.

If you subscribe to updates, we use your email to send newsletters, product updates, educational content, and announcements.

Cookies and Third-Party Tools

CPU Bytes uses cookies and similar technologies to keep your session active, remember preferences, and analyze how visitors use the site. Tools such as Google Analytics, Plausible, and similar services may collect non-personal usage data. If the site includes embedded content like YouTube videos or social media posts, those platforms may set their own cookies.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers who help operate CPU Bytes—such as hosting providers, email services, analytics partners, and payment processors. These partners receive only the information necessary to perform their tasks.

We may also share information if required by law or to protect our rights, users, or systems.

Data Retention

We keep your information only as long as needed to provide our services and meet legal or accounting requirements. If you request deletion of your data or close your account, we will remove the information unless we are required to retain certain records.

Your Rights and Choices

You can unsubscribe from emails at any time by using the link included in each message. If you want to access, correct, or delete your information, you can contact us and we will help you within a reasonable time. If you have an account, some details can be updated directly in your profile.

Depending on your location, you may have additional rights under privacy laws. We respect these rights and comply with valid requests.

Children's Privacy

CPU Bytes is intended for a general audience and is not designed for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13, and our services are meant for individuals who can legally provide their own consent. If we learn that information from a child under 13 has been submitted to us, we will remove it as soon as possible. If you believe a child has provided personal information on the site, please contact us at contact@cpu-bytes.com and we will take the necessary steps to delete it.

Security

We use reasonable measures to safeguard your information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. While no online system can be completely secure, we take practical steps to protect your data and monitor for suspicious activity.

Changes to This Policy

As CPU Bytes evolves, we may update this Privacy Policy. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of the page. If a change is significant, we will provide a clearer notice on the website or through email.
