Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how OTTOPILOTE LLC ("OTTOPILOTE", "we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and shares personal data when you visit ottopilote.com or otherwise interact with us.
1. Data controller
OTTOPILOTE LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company with its principal office at 1621 Central Avenue, Suite 8382, Cheyenne, WY 82001, United States, is the data controller responsible for your personal data. Contact for privacy matters: contact@ottopilote.com.
2. Information we collect
We collect the following categories of personal data:
- Contact data — your email address when you join our waitlist, send us a message, or sign a Service Agreement. Optionally, your name and company.
- Communication data — the content of emails or messages you send us.
- Technical data — IP address, browser type, device information, referrer URL, pages visited, and approximate location derived from IP. Collected via standard web logs and minimal analytics.
We do not knowingly collect special categories of personal data (such as health, ethnicity, or political opinions), and we do not collect personal data from children under 16.
3. How we use your data
We process personal data for the following purposes:
- To respond to your inquiries and provide the Services you request.
- To send you transactional emails (waitlist confirmation, project communication, etc.).
- To operate, maintain, and secure the website.
- To comply with legal obligations, including tax, anti-fraud, and KYB / KYC requirements.
- To improve our Services through aggregated, non-identifying usage analysis.
4. Legal bases for processing (EEA / UK users)
Where the GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Consent — for marketing communications and non-essential cookies, where required.
- Contract — to provide Services you have requested or to take steps prior to entering a contract.
- Legitimate interests — to operate, secure, and improve the website, provided your rights do not override these interests.
- Legal obligation — to comply with applicable laws.
5. Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell personal data. We share personal data only with:
- Service providers who help us operate the website and communicate with you (hosting, analytics, email delivery, payment processing). These providers act as data processors under written agreements and process data only on our instructions.
- Legal and regulatory authorities when required by law or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
- Successors in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to confidentiality obligations.
6. International data transfers
OTTOPILOTE is based in the United States. If you access the Services from outside the United States, your data will be transferred to and processed in the US. Where personal data of EEA / UK residents is transferred outside those jurisdictions, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.
7. Data retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Waitlist emails are kept until you ask us to delete them or until two years after our last contact with you, whichever comes first.
8. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit (TLS), access controls, and least-privilege access for staff. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
- GDPR (EEA / UK) — access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
- CCPA / CPRA (California) — know, delete, correct, opt out of sale or sharing (we do not sell personal data), and non-discrimination.
- Other jurisdictions — equivalent rights as provided by your local law.
To exercise these rights, email contact@ottopilote.com with the subject line "Data request". We will respond within 30 days, or sooner where required by law.
10. Cookies and tracking
The website uses strictly necessary cookies to function and may use minimal analytics cookies to understand aggregate traffic. We do not use cross-site advertising or tracking cookies. You can disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect some site functionality.
11. Third-party services
Our website is hosted by Vercel Inc. (United States). Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. These providers may log technical access data subject to their own privacy policies.
12. Children
The Services are not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can delete it.
