Privacy Policy
Introduction
We at infineria.com take your privacy seriously. This document sets out, in plain English, what information we collect from you when you visit the site, why we collect it, who we share it with, and how to exercise the privacy rights granted to you under applicable law. Reading this policy in full is a good idea — privacy obligations vary by jurisdiction and a few of the choices below are yours to make.
Information We Collect
Our web servers and edge providers automatically receive certain information from your device whenever you request a page on infineria.com: IP address, request headers (including browser type and accepted languages), the resource requested, and the time of the request. Some of this is stored for a short period in access logs; the rest is processed in memory and discarded.
When you fill in a form on infineria.com — newsletter signup, contact form, advertise inquiry, unsubscribe page, or any other interactive surface — we collect the information you choose to enter. That typically includes your email address, your message text, and any optional fields you complete. We do not require you to register an account to read the site.
How We Use Your Information
infineria.com processes the information described above for clearly limited purposes: to deliver the content you request, to fulfill subscriptions or inquiries you initiate, to keep the service secure and operational, to understand aggregate site usage so we can make editorial decisions, and to meet legal or regulatory requirements where they apply. We do not engage in profile-based advertising sales of personal data.
Under the GDPR (and analogous frameworks), our legal bases for processing your personal data are: your consent (for newsletter signups and optional analytics where consent is required); the necessity of processing for performing a contract with you (delivering subscribed content); our legitimate interests in operating and securing the website and understanding aggregate readership; and compliance with our legal obligations. You can withdraw consent at any time using the unsubscribe link in any newsletter or the Contact form.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies are small text files that your browser stores when you visit a website. infineria.com uses both essential cookies (which the site needs to function) and, with your consent in jurisdictions where consent is required, optional cookies for analytics and advertising. You may decline or delete cookies at any time, although doing so may disable some features. We honor browser-level signals such as Global Privacy Control.
Third-Party Service Providers
infineria.com integrates a handful of third-party services so that we can run the site without operating every piece of infrastructure ourselves. These typically include a hosting provider, a content delivery network, an email-delivery service for newsletter distribution, and a privacy-respecting web-analytics provider. We choose vendors with strong data-protection track records and we maintain data-processing agreements with them.
Advertising
We may display advertising on infineria.com sold programmatically through Google AdSense or another reputable advertising network. These networks use cookies to measure ad delivery and (where consent is granted) to personalize the ads shown. You can disable personalized advertising in your Google account at https://www.google.com/settings/ads and refuse non-essential cookies through our cookie banner.
Data Retention
infineria.com's data-retention practices follow the principle of proportionality. We keep newsletter contacts only while the subscription is active (plus a suppression record after unsubscribe); we keep contact-form messages for up to two years; we keep server logs for up to 90 days; and we delete anything beyond those windows unless we have a specific legal reason to keep it longer.
Your Privacy Rights
Under privacy laws including the GDPR (Europe) and the CCPA / CPRA (California), you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to correct it if it is inaccurate, to ask us to delete it, to opt out of any sale or sharing of it (we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising), to restrict its use, and to bring a complaint to a regulator. To exercise any of these rights, contact us through the Contact form below.
Children's Privacy
infineria.com does not target users under the age of 16 and we do not knowingly collect or process personal information from them. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will delete it as quickly as practicable. Parents may notify us via the Contact form to request deletion of any child's data.
International Data Transfers
Some of the third-party processors we rely on are headquartered or operate servers in jurisdictions other than yours, including the United States and the European Union. Where such international transfers occur from jurisdictions that restrict them, we put in place appropriate safeguards — typically Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent legal mechanisms — before any transfer takes place.
Security
We protect your personal information using a combination of administrative, technical, and physical safeguards proportionate to the sensitivity of the data, including encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS), restricted internal access on a need-to-know basis, regular review of vendor access controls, and prompt investigation of any incident that may impact your data. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security — but we work hard to minimize risk.
Changes to This Policy and How to Reach Us
We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy when our practices change or when the law requires it. The current version is always the one published on this page and the "Last updated" date indicates when it took effect. If you have a privacy question or want to exercise a right described above, please reach us through the Contact form — that's the canonical channel for privacy correspondence with infineria.com.
