​1. Information We Collect

​We prioritize user privacy and limit data collection to what is strictly necessary for operational stability and analytics.

​1.1 Automated Data (Cookies & Logs)

When you visit any site within our network, our servers and third-party partners (Google Analytics, SEMrush, Google Ad Manager) may automatically collect non-personal information. This includes:

  • ​Browser type and version.
  • ​Device information.
  • ​Anonymized IP addresses for geographic analysis.
  • ​Referral sources and time spent on pages.

​1.2 User-Submitted Data (Comments)

If you choose to leave a comment on our platforms, we store the data shown in the comments form (Name, Email, and Message). This data is stored securely in our Odoo database.

  • ​IP Addresses: We do NOT log or store IP addresses associated with user comments to ensure privacy.
  • ​Gravatar: An anonymized string created from your email address (hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to verify your profile picture.

​2. Content & AI Optimization Policy

​TechStora employs a hybrid publishing model to deliver complex technical information in a simplified format.

  • ​AI Usage: Approximately 30% of our content process involves Artificial Intelligence (AI) for structural optimization, grammar correction, and data formatting.
  • ​Human Review: All core logic, engineering analysis, and factual verification are conducted by human editors to maintain accuracy and context.
