We collect as little as possible, we never sell your data, and here — in plain language — is exactly what that means.

The Review NYU ("we", "us", or "our") is an independent publication that reviews AI tools and the modern AI world. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit thereviewatnyu.com, how we use it, and the choices you have. We designed the Site to work with the minimum amount of personal data — there are no accounts and no logins.
We keep data collection deliberately minimal:
We do not ask for, or intentionally collect, sensitive personal information, and we do not require you to create an account to read the Site.
We use the limited information above to:
The Site may use a small number of cookies or similar technologies, primarily to support privacy-conscious, aggregated analytics. You can control or block cookies through your browser settings; blocking them will not stop you from reading the Site. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles about you.
Some links on the Site are affiliate links. If you click one and sign up or buy something, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you, and the third party may set its own cookies once you leave our Site. Those third-party cookies are governed by that party's privacy policy, not ours.
We rely on a small number of third-party providers — for example, our web host, content-delivery, and analytics services — to run the Site. These providers may process limited technical data (such as IP addresses) on our behalf and are expected to handle it under their own privacy and security obligations. When you follow a link to an external AI tool or website, that destination's privacy practices apply.
We do not sell your personal data, and we never have. We do not trade or rent your information. We only share data with the service providers described above to operate the Site, or where we are legally required to do so.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal data. Because we serve readers across the EU (including our German, Spanish, and Italian editions), we honor rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and we extend comparable choices under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). These may include the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@thereviewatnyu.com. We will not discriminate against you for making a request.
We keep the information you send us only for as long as needed to respond to you and keep a reasonable record of correspondence, and we keep analytics data in aggregated form. When information is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it.
The Site is intended for a general, adult audience and is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
The Review NYU is read around the world, and our service providers may process data in countries other than yours. Wherever your data is processed, we take reasonable steps to protect it consistent with this policy and applicable law.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top. Material changes will be reflected on this page, and your continued use of the Site means you accept the updated policy.
