Our approach
Future Companions is an independent editorial website. We aim to collect as little personal information as practical and to explain our practices clearly.
Information you choose to provide
The website does not currently use account registration, newsletter forms, or contact forms. If you email us at [email protected], we receive the information you include in your message, such as your email address, name, and message content. We use that information to read and respond to your communication and to maintain appropriate business records.
Information processed when the site loads
Our hosting and infrastructure providers may process basic technical information—such as IP address, browser or device type, timestamps, requested pages, and security logs—to deliver, secure, and maintain the website. Future Companions does not currently use its own advertising pixels or visitor analytics.
Cookies and tracking
Future Companions does not currently set advertising or analytics cookies. The site includes links to third-party services, including YouTube. If you follow those links, the third party’s privacy practices and cookie choices apply.
How information is used and shared
We use information you provide to communicate with you, respond to questions or story leads, protect the website, and comply with legal obligations. We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers that help operate the website or email, or when required by law.
Retention and choices
We retain email correspondence only as long as reasonably needed for communication, editorial, business, security, or legal purposes. You may ask about, correct, or request deletion of information you have sent us by emailing [email protected]. Some information may be retained when required for legitimate business, security, or legal reasons.
Children’s privacy
This website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the website.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the website’s features or practices change. The effective date at the top will show when it was last updated.
