Privacy Policy
Last updated: 16 August 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how personal data is processed when you visit Tech Journal AI.
1. Data controller
The controller responsible for processing personal data on this website is:
Tech Journal AI
Represented by:
Email: Contact@techjournalai.com
2. General information
We process personal data only where necessary to operate this website, respond to enquiries, maintain security or comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell visitors’ personal data.
Nevertheless, some technical information must be processed automatically by the hosting provider when someone accesses the website. This is necessary for the website to function and does not mean that Tech Journal AI sells or publicly shares this information.
3. Website hosting and server log files
This website is hosted by Hostinger.
When you visit the website, the hosting provider may automatically process technical information in server log files, including:
- IP address
- Date and time of access
- Requested page or file
- Referring website
- Browser type and version
- Operating system
- Device information
- HTTP status code
- Amount of data transferred
This processing is necessary to deliver the website, maintain its stability, prevent misuse and investigate technical or security incidents.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the secure and reliable operation of the website.
The data is deleted when it is no longer required for these purposes, unless a longer retention period is necessary to investigate security incidents or comply with legal obligations.
Hostinger may act as a data processor on our behalf. The exact server location and applicable safeguards depend on the hosting configuration used for this website.
4. WordPress
This website uses WordPress as its content-management system.
WordPress may use technically necessary cookies or similar storage technologies for essential functions, security and website administration. These technologies are used only where necessary to provide the website or a function explicitly requested by the visitor.
The applicable legal bases are Section 25(2) TDDDG and, where personal data is processed, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
5. Cookies
This website uses only cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for its basic operation, security or consent management.
Technically necessary cookies may be stored without consent where they are strictly required to provide the website or a service expressly requested by the visitor.
If optional services are introduced in the future—including advertising, analytics, embedded videos or social-media integrations—they will not be activated before the required consent has been obtained.
Visitors can delete stored cookies through their browser settings. Disabling necessary cookies may affect certain website functions.
6. Cookie-consent settings
If a cookie-consent tool is used, it may store the visitor’s choices to document whether consent was granted or refused.
This processing is necessary to comply with legal obligations. The legal bases are Article 6(1)(c) GDPR and Section 25(2) TDDDG.
Consent can be changed or withdrawn at any time through the cookie settings available on the website.
7. Contact by email
If you contact us by email, we process the information you provide, such as your email address, name, message and any other information contained in the enquiry.
The data is processed to respond to your request.
Depending on the nature of the enquiry, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for pre-contractual or contractual communication or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for other enquiries. Our legitimate interest is responding to communications concerning the website.
We delete enquiries when they are no longer required, unless statutory retention obligations apply.
8. Social media and other external links
This website contains standard external links to our profiles and pages on social media platforms, including Facebook, X, YouTube, and TikTok.
Merely visiting TechJournalAI does not establish a connection to these social media providers through these links. Data is generally transferred to the respective provider only when you actively click the relevant link or social media icon and leave our website.
When you open an external social media link, the respective provider may process personal data such as your IP address, browser and device information, the date and time of access, and information about your interaction with the platform. If you are logged into your account with the respective provider, your visit may also be associated with your user account.
We have no control over the scope, purpose, or duration of the data processing carried out by these external providers. Their respective privacy policies apply after you leave our website.

Personal data may be accessible to service providers where this is necessary to operate the website, particularly the hosting provider and providers responsible for technical maintenance or security.
These providers may process information only within the scope of the services they provide and, where required, under a data-processing agreement.
We may also disclose information if required by law, a court order or a lawful request from a competent authority.
We do not sell personal data.
10. International data transfers
If a service provider processes personal data outside the European Economic Area, the transfer will take place only where an appropriate legal mechanism exists. This may include an adequacy decision by the European Commission, approved standard contractual clauses or another mechanism permitted under the GDPR.
11. Data retention
Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
Longer retention may apply where required by law, necessary for security purposes or needed to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have the right to:
- Obtain information about your personal data
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Request restriction of processing
