4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Aicap.in uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience and to serve relevant advertising. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your web browser.

We use the following types of cookies:

  • Essential Cookies — Required for the website to function (e.g., page load optimisation, security tokens).

5. Google AdSense & Advertising

Aicap.in participates in the Google AdSense programme. Google, as a third-party advertising vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this website and other websites.

7. Affiliate Links & Monetisation Disclosure

Some links on Aicap.in are affiliate links. This means that if you click on a link and subsequently make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may earn a commission — at no additional cost to you.

Aicap.in participates in affiliate programmes including, but not limited to:

  • Amazon Associates and similar retail affiliate networks
  • Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) affiliate programmes for AI tools and platforms
  • Financial product referral programmes (e.g., investing apps, passive income tools)

All affiliate relationships are disclosed in accordance with the guidelines of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC, USA), the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA, UK), and applicable Indian advertising standards. Our editorial content and recommendations are based on genuine assessment and are not influenced by affiliate arrangements.


8. Hosting Provider & Infrastructure

Aicap.in is hosted on a third-party web hosting provider. Our hosting provider may automatically log server-level data such as IP addresses, access times, and pages requested. This data is used for server security, performance monitoring, and technical diagnostics.

Our hosting provider acts as a data processor on our behalf and is contractually required to process data only in accordance with our instructions and applicable law. Server data is not used by our host for independent marketing purposes.


9. Social Media & Embedded Content

Aicap.in maintains a presence on several social media platforms including Twitter/X, Pinterest, YouTube, Medium, and Tumblr. When you interact with our social media profiles, the respective platform’s own privacy policy governs the data collected.

Articles on this site may contain embedded content from third-party services such as YouTube videos or Twitter/X posts. Embedded content behaves in exactly the same way as if the visitor had visited that third-party website directly. These services may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content — including if you have an account with that service and are logged in.

We have no control over the data collected by third-party embedded content providers. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any platform whose content appears on our pages.


10. Third-Party Links

Our blog posts and pages may contain links to third-party websites, tools, or resources. When you click on a third-party link, you will be directed away from Aicap.in. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of any website you visit. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by Aicap.in.


11. Newsletter & Email Communications

If you subscribe to our newsletter or submit your email address through our contact form, we will use that address to send you updates, content recommendations, and occasional promotional communications related to AI tools and opportunities.

  • We use a third-party email service provider to manage and deliver our newsletter. Your email address is shared with this provider solely for the purpose of sending our communications.
  • Your email address is never sold, rented, or shared with any other third party for marketing purposes.
  • Every newsletter email contains a clear and functional unsubscribe link. You may opt out at any time.
  • Upon unsubscribing, we will remove your address from our active mailing list within a reasonable timeframe, subject to technical processing delays.

12. Children’s Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Aicap.in is not directed at children under the age of 13 years. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at salmanshaikh7862.ss22@gmail.com.

Upon discovery that a child under 13 has submitted personal information, we will take prompt steps to delete such information from our records. This policy is consistent with the requirements of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Google AdSense policies for child-directed content.

  • Analytics data (aggregated, non-personal): Retained per Google Analytics’ standard retention settings.
