Privacy Policy
1. Who We Are
TechDoAction is an independent technology blog covering Artificial Intelligence, Software and Security Solutions, and Lifestyle Tech Tutorials. Our website is located at techdoaction.com and Ali Hamza Lali operates us. You can reach us at info@techdoaction.com.
We are committed to being fully transparent about how we handle your data. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and what we do with it.
2. What Information We Collect
We collect two types of information.
Information you give us directly: When you fill out our contact form, you provide your name and email address. When you subscribe to our newsletter, you provide your email address. When you leave a comment on an article, you provide your name, email address, and optionally your website URL. We only collect what you choose to give us.
Information collected automatically when you visit: Every website collects certain technical information automatically. When you visit TechDoAction, our systems and third-party tools record your IP address, the type of browser and device you are using, which pages you visit and in what order, how long you spend on each page, and the website that brought you here. This happens on every website you visit and is standard practice across the internet.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for these specific reasons only:
To respond to your messages and contact form submissions. To send newsletters to people who have subscribed and want to receive them. To understand how visitors use our website so we can write better content. To keep our website secure and functioning properly. To display advertisements through Google AdSense as described in Section 5 below.
We do not sell your personal information to anyone. We do not rent it or trade it. We do not use it for any purpose beyond what is listed here.
4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how people use TechDoAction. It tells us things like which articles people read most, what devices they use, and how they find our site. This helps us write content that is actually useful.
Google Analytics collects information anonymously. It does not identify you personally. It reports website trends without connecting data to individual visitors.
If you prefer Google Analytics not to track your visits, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

5. Cookies
Cookies are small text files that websites save on your device. They help websites work properly and help website owners understand how their site is being used.
TechDoAction uses the following types of cookies:
Essential cookies keep the website working. Without them, things like the contact form and newsletter signup would not function.
Analytics cookies come from Google Analytics. They help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it.
Advertising cookies come from Google AdSense. They are used to show you relevant advertisements as explained in Section 5 above.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. In Chrome go to Settings then Privacy and Security then Cookies. In Firefox go to Settings then Privacy and Security. In Safari go to Preferences then Privacy. Turning off certain cookies may affect how some parts of the website work.
6. Third-Party Links and Tools
Our articles often discuss and link to third-party websites, software tools, and online services. Once you leave TechDoAction and visit another website, their own privacy policy applies, not ours. We have no control over what other websites do with your information and we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.
We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any website you visit.
7. How Long We Keep Your Data
We keep contact form submissions for up to 12 months and then delete them. Newsletter subscription data is kept for as long as you remain subscribed. Once you unsubscribe, your email is removed. Comment data stays published as long as the article is live. Google Analytics data is kept according to Google’s default retention settings which is up to 26 months. Server logs are kept for up to 30 days by our hosting provider.
8. Data Security
Our website uses SSL encryption, which is the padlock you see in your browser address bar. This protects data as it travels between your device and our server. We do not store payment information, passwords, or sensitive personal data on our servers. Access to the website backend is protected and limited to authorised team members only.
No method of transmitting or storing data on the internet is completely secure. We take reasonable precautions but we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children
TechDoAction is not designed for or directed at children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has submitted information to us, please email info@techdoaction.com and we will delete it promptly.
10. Your Rights
You have the right to ask us what personal data we hold about you. You have the right to ask us to correct inaccurate information. You have the right to ask us to delete your data. You have the right to withdraw consent for newsletters at any time by clicking unsubscribe in any email we send.
If you are located in the European Union, you have additional rights under GDPR including the right to data portability and the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
If you are located in California, you have rights under CCPA including the right to know what personal information is collected and the right to request deletion. We do not sell personal information.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@techdoaction.com. We will respond within 30 days.
