Effective Date: June 2026

At AI NY City (accessible from https://www.ainycity.com/), the privacy of our visitors is one of our main priorities. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of personal information that is collected and recorded by AI NY City and how we use it.

This policy is designed to comply with the highest international data protection standards of 2026, including the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and Google’s stringent publisher policies, ensuring a safe, transparent, and user-friendly experience.

If you have additional questions or require more information about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us at ainynow.com@gmail.com.

1. Information We Collect

We believe in data minimization. We only collect information that is absolutely necessary to maintain the functionality of this blog, improve user experience, and comply with standard web analytics and advertising protocols.

  • Voluntary Information: If you contact us directly via email, we may receive your name, email address, the contents of the message, and any other information you choose to provide.
  • Automated Information (Log Files): Like standard web servers, we use log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. The information collected includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users' movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.

2. Cookies and Web Beacons

Like any other website, AI NY City uses "cookies". These cookies are used to store information including visitors' preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users' experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors' browser type and/or other information.

3. Google AdSense & Advertising Partners

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our site. To comply with Google's Publisher Policies, we explicitly disclose the following regarding third-party advertising:

  • Third-party vendors: including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies: enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • Users may opt-out: of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt-out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.

Some of our advertising partners may use cookies and web beacons on our site. Each of our advertising partners has their own Privacy Policy for their policies on user data. We have no access to or control over these cookies that are used by third-party advertisers.

4. Affiliate Links & External AI Tools

As a blog dedicated to reviewing and testing artificial intelligence workflows, we frequently link out to external AI software, tools, and platforms.

  • Affiliate Disclosure: Some of these links may be affiliate links. If you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. This helps fund our independent testing.
  • External Privacy Policies: Please be aware that once you click a link and leave AI NY City to visit a third-party AI tool's website, our Privacy Policy no longer applies. AI platforms often collect vast amounts of data (including prompts and user inputs) to train their models. We strongly advise you to read the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service of any third-party AI tool before submitting your personal data or payment information to them.

5. Your Global Data Protection Rights (GDPR & CPRA)

We respect your privacy rights and aim to take reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your Personal Data. Depending on your location (such as the EEA, UK, or California), you have the following rights under the GDPR and CPRA/CCPA:

  • The Right to Access: You have the right to request copies of your personal data.
  • The Right to Rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • The Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): You have the right to request that we erase your personal data, under certain conditions.
  • The Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
  • The Right to Object to Processing: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
  • The Right to Data Portability: You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.
  • Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information: AI NY City does not directly sell your personal data to data brokers. However, the use of advertising cookies (like Google AdSense) may be considered "sharing" under certain US privacy laws. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings or use the opt-out links provided in Section 3.

If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us.

6. Children's Information

Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity.

AI NY City does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 16. If you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately, and we will do our best efforts to promptly remove such information from our records.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in global legislation, advertising policies, or our blog's operational scope. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
