Authority Engine Privacy Policy
Updated: December 4th, 2025
Authority Engine’s privacy policy should clearly explain what data is collected, how it is used, who it is shared with, what rights users have, and how to contact the company, in line with common website and B2B/SaaS standards. The draft below is a general template and should be reviewed by legal counsel to ensure compliance with specific laws (such as GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and other regional regulations).
1. IntroductionThis Privacy Policy explains how Authority Engine (“Authority Engine,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you visit or interact with our website at https://www.authority-engine.ai/ and any related pages, forms, or services that link to this Policy (collectively, the “Site”). By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy; if you do not agree, you should discontinue use of the Site.
2. Information we collectWe may collect the following categories of information when you visit the Site, request a “Free Authority Snapshot,” download resources, or otherwise interact with us:
- Contact and business details: name, email address, phone number, company name, job title, and similar information you provide via forms or direct communication.
- Usage and device data: IP address, browser type, device identifiers, pages viewed, time spent on pages, referring URLs, and general location information, typically collected via cookies and analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics or similar).
- Marketing and communications data: your preferences for receiving marketing from us and your communication history with Authority Engine.
If you choose to provide additional information in forms or during calls (such as business goals or marketing challenges), that information will also be processed in line with this Policy.
3. How we collect informationWe collect information in several ways:
- Directly from you when you fill out forms (such as “Free Authority Snapshot”), subscribe to content, request information, schedule calls, or contact us by email or other channels.
- Automatically through cookies, pixels, and similar technologies when you browse the Site, which help us understand usage patterns and improve performance.
- From third-party service providers and platforms that support our operations, such as analytics providers, CRM or email tools, and social media platforms, where permitted by their terms and applicable law.
4. How we use informationWe use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To provide and operate the Site, respond to your inquiries, and deliver requested resources (e.g., snapshots, newsletters, or content).
- To understand how visitors use the Site, improve our content and services, and develop new offerings related to AI authority infrastructure, AEO, and executive visibility.
- To send you marketing communications, thought leadership, and event or product updates that may be relevant to you in your professional capacity, consistent with your preferences and applicable law.
- To maintain the security and integrity of the Site, detect and prevent fraud or abuse, and comply with legal obligations and enforcement requests.
Where required by law, we will rely on your consent or on legitimate interests (such as operating and improving a B2B website, promoting our services, and ensuring security) as the legal basis for processing.
5. Cookies and similar technologiesThe Site may use cookies, pixels, and similar tracking technologies to:
- Remember your preferences and improve your experience.
- Analyze Site traffic and usage patterns.
- Support marketing and remarketing activities on third-party platforms, where permitted.
You can usually adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being used; however, some Site features may not function properly if cookies are disabled. Where required, we will present a consent mechanism for non-essential cookies and honor your choices.
6. How we share informationWe do not sell personal information in the traditional sense, but we may share information with:
- Service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as hosting, analytics, email delivery, CRM, and marketing support. These providers are contractually obligated to process data only as instructed and to apply appropriate security measures.
- Professional advisors (such as legal or accounting firms) when necessary to protect our business or comply with legal obligations.
- Authorities or other third parties when required by law, to protect our rights, or in connection with a business transaction (such as a merger, acquisition, or asset sale), where personal data may be transferred as part of the transaction.
Any sharing is limited to what is necessary for the relevant purpose and is done in line with applicable data protection laws.
7. International data transfersBecause Authority Engine serves clients globally, personal information may be processed in countries other than the one in which it was collected, and these locations may have different data protection laws. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses or similar mechanisms) to protect personal information transferred internationally.
8. Data retentionWe retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, including to provide requested services, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and our legal or contractual requirements, after which information will be securely deleted or anonymized.
9. Your rights and choicesDepending on your location and applicable law (for example, under GDPR in the EEA/UK or CCPA/CPRA in California), you may have some or all of the following rights:
- Access: Request confirmation that we process your personal information and obtain a copy.
- Correction: Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Deletion: Request that we delete certain personal information, subject to legal exceptions.
- Restriction or objection: Object to or request restriction of certain processing, including processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing.
- Portability: Receive certain information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
- Consent withdrawal: Where processing is based on consent, withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting prior processing.
If you wish to exercise any of these rights, you can contact us using the details in the “Contact us” section below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request and may not be able to comply with requests in all circumstances, as allowed by law.
You may opt out of marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in those emails or contacting us directly.
10. California and other regional disclosuresIf you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), including rights to know, delete, correct, and opt out of certain data practices. Authority Engine will honor these rights where applicable and will not discriminate against you for exercising them.
Other jurisdictions (such as certain U.S. states, the EEA, UK, and others) may grant additional rights or impose specific disclosures; this Policy is intended to be read together with any region-specific notices we may provide.
11. Data securityWe use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to maintain safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data and our business operations.
12. Children’s privacyThe Site is intended for business and professional users and is not directed to children under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children; if we become aware that such information has been provided, we will take steps to delete it as required by law.
13. Changes to this Privacy PolicyWe may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. When changes are made, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of the Policy and, where required, provide additional notice or seek consent.
