Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2025-10-05
Overview
Speaker Interop Lab (“we,” “us,” “our”) operates speakerinteroplab.live (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to this policy.
Information We Collect
• Information you provide: emails you send to [email protected] and any details you include (e.g., device lists, screenshots).
• Usage data: pages viewed, referrers, approximate location (country/region), and device/browser info collected via privacy‑respecting analytics. We avoid collecting personally identifiable information for analytics.
• Cookies and similar technologies: used only where necessary for site functionality, preferences, analytics (where configured), and affiliate attribution.
• Newsletter data (if you subscribe): email address and subscription preferences.
How We Use Information
• To respond to inquiries and provide support.
• To improve content, navigation, and performance.
• To measure article effectiveness (e.g., which guides reduce troubleshooting time).
• To operate affiliate programs and track outbound link performance.
• To comply with legal obligations and prevent abuse.
Legal Basis (EEA/UK)
We process personal data under these bases:
• Consent (e.g., newsletter, non‑essential cookies).
• Legitimate interests (e.g., site security, minimal analytics, fraud prevention).
• Contract (when you request information or services).
• Legal obligation (record‑keeping, compliance).
Cookies and Tracking
• Essential cookies: required for core site functions and security.
• Preferences: save settings (e.g., cookie choices).
• Analytics: we may use privacy‑focused analytics that minimize or avoid cookies; if cookies are used, they are configured without cross‑site tracking.
• Affiliate tracking: some merchants use cookies or parameters to attribute referrals. These identify a click from our site but do not give us access to your payment data.
You can manage cookies via your browser settings and, where offered, our cookie banner.
Analytics
We favor analytics that do not build user profiles and do not sell data. Aggregated metrics help us understand content performance and fix navigation issues.
Affiliate Disclosure
We may earn a commission when you purchase through outbound links to retailers or manufacturers. This does not affect the price you pay. We do not accept payment for positive coverage or guaranteed placement. See our Editorial Policy for independence standards.
Email Communications
If you contact us or subscribe to updates, we’ll use your email to reply or send the content you requested. You can unsubscribe at any time. We do not sell or rent email lists.
Data Retention
We retain support emails and related notes only as long as necessary to resolve issues and maintain service quality, then delete or anonymize them. Analytics data is retained in aggregated form.
Security
We use industry‑standard security measures (encryption in transit, access controls). No method is 100% secure; please avoid sending sensitive personal information.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and to object to processing or request portability. To exercise these rights, contact [email protected].
California Privacy (CCPA/CPRA)
We do not sell or share personal information as defined by the CCPA/CPRA. You can request access or deletion of your personal information at [email protected].
Children’s Privacy
The Site is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
International Transfers
If you access the Site from outside the hosting region, your information may be processed in jurisdictions with different data laws. We apply safeguards consistent with applicable requirements.
Third‑Party Links
Our content links to third‑party sites. Their privacy practices apply to your use of those sites. Review their policies before providing information.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in law or site practices. We will revise the effective date and, where appropriate, provide notice on the Site.
