Privacy Policy
Last updated November 4, 2026
Draft for legal review. This policy is a working draft and is not yet in effect. Bracketed items will be completed before launch.
We collect what we need to run a trustworthy review directory, we never sell or share your data for advertising, and you can download or delete your data at any time.
1. Who we are
AI Training Finder (aitrainingfinder.com) is operated by [Legal entity name], [Mailing address] (“we”, “us”). We run an independent directory of AI engineering training. Questions about this policy: contact@aitrainingfinder.com.
2. What we collect and why
- Account details (when you sign up): name, email addresses and whether they are verified, and whether two-step verification is on. Used to sign you in, show your display name (first name and last initial by default) and contact you about your reviews, claims or listings.
- Reviews: your scores, answers and text, the program, and the dates. Published reviews show your display name only, never your email.
- Completion proof: certificate or badge links, uploaded certificates or completion records, and optional profile links. Seen only by our moderators. We fetch credential links to check that your name and the program appear. Uploaded files are deleted once the review is decided and always within 30 days.
- Integrity signals: a one-way, salted hash of your IP address (not the address itself) to enforce rate limits and spot duplicate or coordinated reviews; whether one of your verified emails is on a reviewed school's domain (possible insider).
- School accounts: work email, claim evidence (DNS records or documents, deleted after the claim is decided), team membership and every listing edit you make.
- Review invites from schools: when a school invites its completers, we email each address once and store only a one-way keyed hash of it, so we can match your invite later. We don't keep the address.
- Messages and requests: what you send through the contact, report or privacy request forms.
- Usage: anonymous daily view counts per listing, clicks to schools' official sites (which page, when, and whether the link is an affiliate link, with no personal identifier), and cookieless, aggregated Vercel Web Analytics (pages viewed, referrer, country, device type).
We don't collect payment details, and we don't buy data about you from others.
5. How long we keep it
- Account and review data: while your account exists; deleted or anonymized when you delete it (see below).
- Uploaded completion documents: until the review is decided, and never more than 30 days.
- Claim documents: until the claim is decided.
- Moderation records: kept for as long as needed to defend decisions and produce the transparency report, without the review text once a review is deleted.
- Email logs: recipient, type and delivery status, kept for 12 months.
- Contact, report and privacy requests: up to 24 months.
6. Your rights and choices
Wherever you live, you can:
- Download your data: signed in, go to Account → Your data.
- Delete your account from the same page. Your reviews are removed from the site and scores recalculated.
- Correct your name or email in your account settings, or edit your reviews from My reviews.
- Make a request without an account (for example, if a school invited you, or you contacted us) through the privacy request form. We verify requests by email and reply within 45 days.
California residents have these rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know, delete, correct and opt out of sale or sharing, and the right not to be discriminated against for using them. You may use an authorized agent. We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as an opt-out request.
7. Security
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest with our providers. Completion and claim documents are in private storage that only moderators can open through short-lived links. School accounts require two-step verification. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects you, we will tell you as the law requires.
8. Children
The site is for adults. We don't knowingly collect data from anyone under 16; contact us if you think a child has given us data.
9. Changes and contact
We will post changes here and update the date above; for significant changes we will also email account holders. Contact: contact@aitrainingfinder.com, [Legal entity name], [Mailing address].
