Privacy Policy

At A&K, we value the privacy and protection of our users’ data. Therefore, we’ve implemented policies and measures designed to protect personal information collected from our users, complying with relevant United States regulations, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and other applicable state and federal laws.

Data Processing:

A&K is responsible for the processing of personal data. In compliance with applicable privacy laws, we inform you that personal data provided as a registered user will be used to:

• Maintain your active user profile, enabling interaction with tools and features available on our platform. Your profile will remain active until you request account deletion.

• If subscribed, your email address will receive news and updates from our platform.

• When participating through comments, your username will be published; your email address will not be publicly disclosed.

All personal data is stored securely in servers located within the United States under strict security measures to prevent unauthorized access and information leaks.

Your personal data will be treated confidentially, applying both technical and organizational security measures. We regularly conduct risk analyses and impact assessments to ensure data protection.

The legal basis for processing your data is your explicit consent, which can be withdrawn at any time via your user profile or by requesting account deletion.

Rights and Data Retention:

You have the rights of access, rectification, opposition, deletion, and restriction regarding your personal data. You may exercise these rights by contacting us at the provided company address or email. We will retain your personal data while your profile is active; upon deletion, your profile will be removed, but data will be stored for 3 years solely to address potential liabilities arising from data processing.

Comments made on our platforms will remain but will be associated with an anonymous user labeled “Deactivated User.”

You may also file a complaint with relevant state or federal authorities if you believe your data is being mishandled.

Single Account Across Platforms:

Your A&K credentials grant access across our multiple platforms without requiring separate registrations.

Subscription for Updates and Commercial Communications:

Subscriptions for receiving new articles or newsletters will require email verification. You may cancel subscriptions at any time using instructions provided in each communication.

We utilize third-party email services (such as MailChimp or similar). We do not share your email address with third parties for unrelated commercial purposes.

Content Personalization Technologies:

Registered users may receive personalized content if consent is granted. Technologies such as cookies and anonymized identifiers based on your email address activity may be used to tailor your experience across our partner network.

Your email address remains confidential and will not be disclosed externally. Consent can be withdrawn at any time through your privacy settings.

Opt-Out and User Account Deactivation:

You may request account deactivation through your profile settings, resulting in:

• Account deactivation and loss of access.

• Comments made will remain under an anonymized identity.

• Personal registration data retained for 3 years for legal compliance only.

• Cancellation of newsletter subscriptions.

We employ various cookies detailed in our Cookie Policy [Link to your Cookie Policy page].

Minors’ Data Processing:

Our services are intended for users aged 13 or older. Accounts identified as belonging to users under 13 will be suspended or require age verification.
