How Logicmantle collects, uses, and protects your information.
Logicmantle ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you visit our website, logicmantle.com (the "Services"). LogicMantle is an independent technology newsroom; we publish articles and a newsletter.
The only personal information we hold is what you voluntarily send us — by email, or by subscribing to our newsletter. We don't run analytics, we don't use tracking cookies, we don't profile readers, and we don't sell or share your information with anyone for marketing purposes.
Email you send us. If you write to us with a tip, a pitch, or a correction, we hold your email address and whatever you chose to include in your message. We use it solely to respond and to follow up on the story.
Newsletter. If you subscribe to The LogicMantle Brief, we store the email address you submit for the sole purpose of sending you that newsletter. We do not use it for advertising, we do not enrich it with third-party data, and you can unsubscribe from any issue.
No analytics or tracking. Our website does not use Google Analytics, advertising trackers, behavioral profiling cookies, or similar technologies. Your browser may automatically send standard request information (such as IP address and user agent) to our hosting provider as part of normal web traffic, but we do not store, profile, or analyze it for marketing purposes.
Note that the platforms our apps run on (Apple App Store, Google Play, and your device's operating system) may independently collect their own diagnostic, crash, or usage data under their own privacy policies, which we do not control. Please review Apple's and Google's privacy policies for details.
We use the information you send us only to:
We do not use your information for marketing, advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share information only in these limited situations:
Our website does not use tracking, advertising, or analytics cookies. Any cookies that may be set are strictly functional (for example, to keep the site running). You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Our Services are not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EU/UK), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
We keep correspondence only as long as needed to respond and to maintain a reasonable record. Newsletter addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. You may ask us to delete your information at any time by emailing info@logicmantle.com.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information you submit. Because the only personal data we hold is correspondence and newsletter addresses, the scope of any potential exposure is limited. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@logicmantle.com from the email address you used to contact us. We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.
For residents of the EU, UK, and EEA (GDPR/UK GDPR): You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to our processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability. Our legal basis for processing this data is your consent and our legitimate interest in responding to you. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
For California residents (CCPA/CPRA): You have the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to request deletion, the right to correct inaccurate information, and the right to opt out of any sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not use it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
For other jurisdictions: Similar rights may apply under your local laws. Contact us and we'll do our best to honor any reasonable request.
Our hosting and email infrastructure may be located in the United States. If you contact us or subscribe from outside the U.S., your information may be transferred to and processed there. By writing to us or subscribing, you consent to that transfer.
Our Services may link to third-party websites or app stores. This Policy does not apply to those sites or services, and we encourage you to review their privacy practices.
We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date above. If changes are material, we will make a reasonable effort to notify you through the Services.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or our practices, please contact us at info@logicmantle.com.
