OpenSiteAI LLC
Privacy Policy
Effective Date: May 19, 2026
OpenSiteAI LLC (“OpenSiteAI,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) cares about privacy. This Privacy Policy (this “Policy”) explains how we collect, use, disclose, transfer, and protect personal information when you visit our websites (including opensiteai.com and consult.opensiteai.com), engage us for services, communicate with us, or otherwise interact with us (collectively, the “Services”).
This Policy applies to information we process as a controller (or, where applicable, as a “business” under U.S. state privacy laws). When we process personal data on behalf of one of our business clients (for example, end-user data flowing through a hosted website, dashboard, or automation we built for that client), that client is the controller (or “business”) and we act as a processor (or “service provider”). In that role, our processing is governed by our agreement with that client, including any Data Processing Addendum. Please contact the client directly for questions about its data practices.
By using the Services or providing us with personal information, you agree to the terms of this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

Who we share it with — Service providers (hosting, payments, email, AI providers, analytics), our advisors, parties to a corporate transaction, and authorities where required by law. We do not sell your personal information for money.

1. Information We Collect
We collect personal information from three sources: (a) information you provide directly; (b) information collected automatically from your device and usage; and (c) information from third parties.
1.1 Information You Provide Directly
- Identifiers and contact information. Your name, business name, postal address, email address, phone number, and similar contact details when you submit a contact form, request a quote, sign an SOW, schedule a call, or interact with our consultation tool (consult.opensiteai.com).
- Account credentials. Where the Services include an account or admin dashboard, your username, password (stored using salted one-way hashing), and security questions or multi-factor authentication settings.
- Project information. Information you share about your business, project scope, brand assets, current website or platforms, integrations, content, budget, and timelines, including any files, images, copy, screenshots, or other materials you upload or send.
- Commercial and transactional information. Records of purchases, subscriptions, orders, invoices, and refunds, along with the products and services you purchase.
- Payment information. When you pay us, we use a third-party payment processor (currently Stripe) to handle payment card information. We do not store full card numbers. We receive limited information from our processor, such as the last four digits, brand, expiry, billing ZIP, and a token allowing us to charge the saved method again.
- Communications. The contents of emails, messages, support tickets, chat sessions (including AI-powered chat), call recordings (with consent where required), survey responses, and any other communications you send to us.
- Marketing preferences. Your preferences regarding marketing emails, newsletters, event invitations, and similar communications.
- Sensitive information (avoid sending). Please do not send us special-category data (such as health information, government ID numbers, or biometric data) unless we have agreed in writing that you may. If you do, you consent to our processing of it as described in this Policy.
1.2 Information Collected Automatically
When you visit our websites or use the Services, we and our service providers may automatically collect:
- Device and connection data. IP address, device identifiers, browser type and version, operating system, language preference, network carrier, screen resolution, and time zone.
- Usage data. Pages and screens viewed, time spent, referring/exit URLs, search terms, clicks, scroll depth, links followed, form interactions, and other telemetry.
- Approximate location. Derived from your IP address; we do not collect precise geolocation from your device without your consent.
- Cookies and similar technologies. See Section 5 for our use of cookies, pixels, web beacons, local storage, and SDKs.
- Logs. Server logs, security logs, error reports, and crash data.
1.3 Information from Third Parties
We may receive information about you from third parties, including:

When you interact with these features, your inputs and the AI’s outputs may be processed by third-party AI providers (for example, OpenAI or Anthropic) under their respective terms. We make commercially reasonable efforts to use AI providers that do not retain or train on inputs without consent, but you should not enter information into AI features that you are not comfortable sharing under these conditions.

4. AI Features and Automated Processing
4.1 Use of AI
We use artificial intelligence and machine learning in connection with the Services, including to: (a) draft and refine outbound communications on our consultation tool (consult.opensiteai.com); (b) power chat assistants and automation features we build for our clients; and (c) improve and operate the Services. AI features rely on third-party AI providers, who are bound by their own terms and privacy practices.
4.2 What We Send to AI Providers
When you interact with an AI feature, we may transmit the relevant inputs (such as the text you type into a chat or form) to an AI provider for processing. We make commercially reasonable efforts to: (a) configure providers to not retain or train on your inputs; (b) avoid sending special-category or sensitive data; and (c) limit transmissions to what is necessary for the feature to function. You should not enter information into AI features that you are not willing to disclose under these terms.
4.3 Automated Decisions
We do not use AI or automated processing to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you without meaningful human review. Where automated decision-making is used (for example, to detect spam, fraud, or abuse), you have the right under GDPR/UK GDPR to request human review and to contest the outcome, subject to applicable exceptions.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
5.1 What We Use
We use cookies and similar technologies (collectively, “cookies”) such as web beacons, pixels, local storage, and SDKs to operate, secure, and improve the Services and (subject to your consent where required) to deliver advertising. Cookies may be set by us (first-party) or by third parties (third-party).
5.2 Categories
- Strictly necessary — Required for the Services to function (e.g., authentication, security, load balancing, cookie consent state). These cannot be disabled.
- Functional — Remember your preferences (e.g., language, region, layout).
- Analytics / performance — Help us understand how the Services are used (e.g., Google Analytics, Plausible, Hotjar, Microsoft Clarity).
- Marketing / advertising — Help us deliver and measure ads (e.g., Google Ads, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag).
5.3 Your Choices
Where required (including in the EU, UK, and certain U.S. states), we present a consent banner the first time you visit allowing you to accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookies. You may change your preferences at any time using the “Cookie Preferences” link in the website footer. You may also control cookies through your browser settings, and you may opt out of certain advertising through industry tools such as the Digital Advertising Alliance (https://optout.aboutads.info), the Network Advertising Initiative (https://optout.networkadvertising.org), or Your Online Choices (https://youronlinechoices.eu). Disabling cookies may affect functionality.
5.4 Global Privacy Control
We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as an opt-out of “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under CCPA/CPRA and similar U.S. state laws, where applicable. Because there is no consistent industry standard for browser “Do Not Track” signals, we do not currently respond to DNT signals.
6. Security
We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Examples include:
- TLS encryption in transit and encryption at rest for production databases and backups.
- Role-based access controls, unique credentials, principle of least privilege, and multi-factor authentication for administrative access.
- Network firewalls, intrusion detection, regular vulnerability scanning, and patch management.
- Audit logging of access and administrative actions, retained for a reasonable period.
- Background checks (where lawful), confidentiality agreements, and security training for personnel.
- Incident response procedures and regular testing of backups and recovery.
- Vendor security reviews for new sub-processors and integrations.
No system is perfectly secure. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and notifying us immediately of any suspected unauthorized access. If we learn of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you and any required authorities as required by applicable law.
7. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes set out in this Policy, including to provide the Services, comply with legal, accounting, and reporting obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When personal information is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it, subject to:
- Backup retention cycles (typically up to 90 days).
- Legal holds and requirements to retain records (e.g., tax, contract, audit obligations).
- Aggregated or de-identified information, which we may keep indefinitely.
Specific retention periods depend on the nature of the data: contact and account information is kept for the duration of the relationship plus up to seven (7) years thereafter for accounting and statute-of-limitations purposes; transactional records are kept as required by applicable tax and accounting law; and marketing-list data is kept until you unsubscribe plus a short suppression period.
8. International Data Transfers
OpenSiteAI is based in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, your personal information will be transferred to and processed in the United States and in other countries where our service providers operate. These countries may have data-protection laws different from those of your country.
Where required by applicable law (including the GDPR and UK GDPR), we rely on appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, and supplementary measures where necessary. You may request a copy of the safeguards in place by contacting consult@opensiteai.com.

9.6 Where We Are a Processor
If your data was provided to us by one of our business clients (for example, you submitted a form on, registered with, or otherwise interacted with a site or app we built and host for that client), the client is the controller and you should direct your privacy rights request to that client. We will assist them in responding as required by our contract with them.
10. Children
The Services are not directed to children under 16 (or under 13 in the United States, as defined by COPPA), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child without verifiable parental consent, we will delete it. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided us with personal information may contact consult@opensiteai.com.
11. Third-Party Websites and Services
The Services may contain links to, or integrations with, third-party websites and services that are not operated by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. Please review their privacy policies before providing them with information.
12. When We Act as Processor / Service Provider
When we process personal data of a client’s end users on the client’s behalf — for example, where we host a client’s website, operate an admin dashboard for them, run a chatbot, or operate an automation that touches end-user data — the client is the controller (or, under CCPA/CPRA, the “business”) and OpenSiteAI is the processor (or “service provider”).
In that role, our processing is governed by our agreement with the client, including, where applicable, a Data Processing Addendum. We will not sell or share such personal information, will not use it for our own purposes outside the direct business relationship with the client, and will not combine it with personal information from other sources except as permitted by law. If you are an end user of one of our clients and have privacy questions or requests, please contact that client directly.

We may update this Policy from time to time. The “Effective Date” at the top reflects the latest update. If we make material changes, we will provide notice through the Services or by email at least thirty (30) days before the changes take effect, except for changes required by law, which may take effect immediately. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
