Privacy Policy
Because true growth begins with trust and transparency
At Alanbouo, we believe in the power of self-hosted AI to protect your privacy like cherished olives in a Mediterranean grove. This privacy policy explains how we handle what little information we collect and why we collect it at all.
🌱 What Information We Collect
Unlike cloud-based AI services that harvest vast amounts of user data without true consent, we only collect information you actively provide:
- Contact Information: Name, email, and company details provided through our contact form for professional communication about AI consulting services.
- Newsletter Subscriptions: Email address only, processed through our self-hosted newsletter system with immediate unsubscribe capability.
- Web Analytics: Self-hosted Matomo instance collects anonymous usage patterns to improve our olive tree-themed website—just page views and referral sources, no personal data.
🌿 How We Use Your Information
✉️ Primary Purpose: Professional Communication
We use the information you provide exclusively to respond to inquiries about AI ethics audits, self-hosted migration services, or technical consulting needs. Each response is a step toward cultivating your organization's data sovereignty.
📧 Newsletter Communications
With explicit permission only, we share timely insights about ethical AI developments, privacy best practices, and Mediterranean wisdom for sustainable technology growth. You can unsubscribe instantly from any message.
📊 Website Improvement
Anonymous website analytics help us understand how visitors interact with our olive grove philosophy and identify areas for growth in our educational content.
🏠 Our Self-Hosted Philosophy
Unlike cloud providers that harvest and sell your data, we operate with complete transparency:
Self-Hosted Infrastructure
Newsletter, analytics, and consulting communications all run on our controlled servers, not external services.
Data Control
Your information never leaves our premise. No cloud backups, no external processing, no data sharing.
Transparency First
You always know what information we collect and exactly how it's used. No hidden policies or terms.
"Like the olive tree that produces fruit for generations, our systems are built for permanence, not profit."
⏳ Data Retention Policy

👤 Your Rights: You're in Control
