Privacy Policy

Last updated: 6 November 2026.

This Privacy Policy explains how personal data may be processed when you visit or contact www.deeptech.technology (the “Website”). It also describes the use of cookies and the privacy choices available to visitors. Processing and third-party services can change; this notice will be reviewed as the Website’s configuration changes.

1. Data controller and contact

Controller: Ricardo Teixeira, an independent publisher operating DeepTech.

Privacy contact: kernelzh81@gmail.com. You may also use our Contact page. This contact can be used for privacy requests, corrections and questions.

2. Personal data and where it comes from

  • Contact enquiries: information you choose to provide in a contact form or email, which may include your name, email address and message.
  • Technical and security records: information that website hosting and security infrastructure may process, such as IP address, browser and device information, timestamps, requested pages and security events.
  • Comments and user accounts: if enabled and used, information submitted through WordPress comment or account features.
  • Cookies and similar technologies: identifiers and preferences that may be stored or read in your browser, depending on the services enabled and the choices you make.

3. Why data is used and the legal bases

  • Answering enquiries and correcting articles: processing necessary to respond to messages and maintain the publication, generally on the basis of legitimate interests or steps requested by the person contacting us, as appropriate.
  • Running and securing the Website: processing necessary to maintain functionality, prevent misuse and investigate security events, generally on the basis of legitimate interests or a legal obligation where applicable.
  • Optional analytics or advertising: where legally required, non-essential cookies and related processing are based on consent, which you can refuse or withdraw.
  • Legal compliance: processing or retention required by applicable law.

4. Cookies, consent and analytics

The Website uses WordPress and has CookieAdmin installed for cookie-consent management. The Website also has analytics-related integrations, including Jetpack, MonsterInsights and Metricool. Which third-party tracking features are actually enabled and which cookies are used depends on the current configuration. The operator is reviewing the live cookie inventory and consent configuration; installation of an integration alone does not establish that its tracking is active.

Essential cookies may be used for site security or basic operation. Analytics, personalisation and advertising cookies should be used only in accordance with applicable law and, where required, your consent. When available, use the site’s cookie preferences interface to manage your choices, or contact us at kernelzh81@gmail.com. The precise list of cookies, providers and lifetimes will be updated following a live scan.

5. Google AdSense and third-party advertising

If Google AdSense or other advertising partners are enabled on this Website, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve advertising based on previous visits to this or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to show ads based on visits to participating sites and other online activity where permitted.

You can manage personalised advertising through Google Ads Settings. Information about choices offered by certain other participating advertising vendors can be found at aboutads.info. Any additional ad networks actually enabled on this Website should be identified through the relevant consent information and this notice.

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, AdSense consent messages must be configured according to Google’s applicable requirements, including use of a Google-certified CMP integrated with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework where required. The existence of this disclosure does not mean that the Google AdSense or CMP configuration is already complete.

6. Service providers, recipients and international transfers

Depending on the configuration, website hosting, security, contact-form, email delivery, analytics and advertising providers may process limited personal data to provide their services. The WordPress installation includes WPForms and WP Mail SMTP for contact and email functionality. Some providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where that occurs, appropriate transfer safeguards should be applied under relevant data-protection law. For details about a specific processing activity or provider, please contact the controller.

7. Retention

Contact information is kept only for the time reasonably necessary to answer the enquiry, handle follow-up correspondence or meet legal obligations. Technical records are retained according to the security and hosting systems’ operational and legal needs. Where an applicable service has its own retention controls, retention also depends on those settings. The specific live retention periods are subject to verification and will be added when confirmed.

8. Your data-protection rights

Subject to applicable law, you may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or portability of your personal data, and you may object to certain processing. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting processing already carried out lawfully. Send requests to kernelzh81@gmail.com; you may be asked for information necessary to verify your identity.

You may also complain to the Portuguese data-protection authority, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD).

9. External websites, links and embedded content

DeepTech articles may link to research papers, institutions, independent websites and other sources. Those websites may operate their own cookies and privacy practices. Embedded content, if used, may involve third-party services and should be considered in the cookie and consent configuration.

10. Changes to this policy

The policy will be updated if the Website’s use of forms, analytics, advertising, cookies, service providers or processing practices changes. Any important additions resulting from the live cookie and analytics audit will be reflected in a revised version with a new update date.
