Privacy Policy
How A State of AI collects, uses, and protects your information.
Last updated: April 2026
Who we are
A State of AI is a technology publication operated by Adsngin Limited, a company registered in New Zealand. We publish articles, analysis, and commentary on artificial intelligence and its impact on builders, founders, and the wider industry.
What we collect
We collect very little personal information.
What we do collect:
- Server logs and analytics — We use a privacy-respecting analytics service that does not use cookies and does not track you across websites. It collects aggregated, anonymised data such as page views and referrer information.
- Infrastructure — Our site is served through a third-party infrastructure and security provider that may process your IP address and request metadata as part of standard operation.
- Contact enquiries — If you email us directly, we will use your email address to respond to your message. We do not add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent.
What we do not collect:
- We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
- We do not build advertising profiles.
Cookies
Our site may set a small number of technical cookies to support site functionality (for example, security or theme preference). See our Cookie Policy for details.
How we use information
The limited data we collect is used solely to:
- Keep the site running securely and reliably.
- Understand aggregate traffic patterns so we can improve content.
- Respond to direct enquiries.
Data retention
Analytics data is retained according to our analytics provider's standard retention policy. Server logs are retained for a short period for security and debugging purposes. Email correspondence is retained for as long as it is relevant.
Your rights
You have the right to request access to any personal information we hold about you, and to request its deletion. Because we collect so little, there is generally not much to act on — but if you have a request, please contact us.
Third-party links
Our articles may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
