Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the Stedral Directory at digitalixhub.com/directory, operated by Digitalix Hub OÜ ("we," "us," "our"), a company registered in Estonia.

When you visit the Stedral Directory, we may collect:

• Usage data — pages visited, time spent, referring source, device type, browser version, and approximate location (country/region) derived from IP address.
• Cookies and similar technologies — we use cookies for analytics and to enable third-party services (see Section 4).
• Information you provide — if you contact us by email, we collect the email address and message content you send.

• To operate, maintain, and improve the directory.
• To respond to messages you send us.
• To analyze how the directory is used so we can improve the editorial coverage.
• To prevent abuse and protect the security of the site.

We use the following third-party services:

• Google Analytics — to understand how visitors use the directory. Google Analytics collects standard internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymized form. See Google's policies at policies.google.com/privacy.
• Google AdSense — we display advertising served by Google. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising at adssettings.google.com.
• Hosting and CDN providers — necessary for delivering the site, including basic logging for security and reliability.

Some directory content is AI-generated, and any AI-powered features on the Site involve interacting with an AI system rather than a human, consistent with Article 50 of the EU AI Act.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use them for analytics and advertising. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may affect site functionality. For EU/UK visitors, you will see a cookie consent banner on first visit allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies.

If you are in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, restrict or object to processing, and receive a copy of your data in a portable format. Contact us at the address below to exercise these rights.

We retain analytics data in aggregated form indefinitely for trend analysis. We retain individual contact emails for as long as needed to handle the inquiry plus a reasonable follow-up period.

The Stedral Directory is intended for business audiences and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

We are based in Estonia, but third-party services we use (such as Google Analytics, Google AdSense, and our hosting provider) may transfer data outside the European Economic Area. We rely on standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards for such transfers.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be highlighted on the directory homepage when they take effect.
