Privacy Policy.
Transparent by design.

Controller

The controller responsible for the processing of personal data on this website is:

General information about data processing

We process personal data only where this is necessary to provide the website, respond to requests, operate the newsletter registration process, maintain technical security, or comply with legal obligations.

Depending on the processing activity, the legal basis may be consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures under Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, compliance with a legal obligation under Article 6(1)(c) GDPR, or our legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future.

Hosting and technical server data

When you access this website, technical information may be processed automatically by the hosting infrastructure. This can include the IP address, date and time of access, requested URL, referrer, browser type, operating system, device information and technical status codes.

This processing is generally necessary to deliver the website, maintain security, identify technical problems and protect the service against misuse. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in secure and reliable operation of the website under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Technical hosting providers may receive this information as processors or service providers where required for website operation.

Newsletter registration

If you register for the Humanoid Robots Today Briefing, we process the email address you provide and the consent information submitted with the registration form.

The purpose is to provide selected news, market signals, Future Work and Future Learning updates relating to humanoid robotics and Physical AI. The legal basis is your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

You may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal. You can contact us at info@humanoidrobots.today.

Formspree

We use Formspree as a technical form-processing service for newsletter registrations and potentially other website forms. When you submit a form, the information entered into the form is transmitted to Formspree.

According to Formspree, its services are hosted with Amazon Web Services in the United States. Formspree states that it relies on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as a data processor for GDPR-related international data transfers.

Information about Formspree's security and privacy practices is available at Formspree Security .

We transmit only the information required for the relevant form. For the newsletter this normally includes your email address, consent status and technical submission information.

External links and original news sources

Humanoid Robots Today contains links to external websites, including companies, research institutions, media organisations and original news sources. When you follow such a link, you leave our website.

The external provider is responsible for the processing of personal data on its own website. Its own privacy policy and terms apply.

Cookies, analytics and advertising

The current Humanoid Robots Today implementation is designed as a lightweight static website and does not intentionally rely on advertising trackers or behavioural profiling for its editorial functions.

If analytics, marketing technologies, embedded third-party media or consent-requiring cookies are introduced in the future, this Privacy Policy and, where legally required, the consent mechanism will be updated before or together with that processing.

Editorial & AI transparency

How AI is used

AI systems may support summarisation, translation, drafting, topic classification, business-impact analysis, SEO metadata, headline options and image generation. AI-generated output can contain errors or misinterpretations, which is why editorial review remains part of the publishing process.

Human editorial responsibility

The decision to use a news item, the editorial framing and the final publication decision remain human-controlled. Humanoid Robots Today uses a human-in-the-loop approach rather than fully autonomous publishing.

Original sources and attribution

Our news datasets include source information and, where appropriate, direct links to the original publication. Humanoid Robots Today creates its own summaries, business context and editorial interpretation based on those sources. The original publishers remain responsible for their original content.

Illustrative images

AI-generated images may visually represent robots, factories, research centres, workplaces or business scenarios described in an article. Such images are created for editorial illustration and may not reproduce the exact robot, location, people or circumstances of the original event.

Your data protection rights

Subject to the requirements of the GDPR, you may have the right to:

• request access to your personal data;
• request correction of inaccurate data;
• request deletion of personal data;
• request restriction of processing;
• receive data you provided in a portable format where applicable;
• object to processing based on legitimate interests;
• withdraw consent at any time for future processing; and
• lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

To exercise your rights, contact info@humanoidrobots.today.

Retention of personal data

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

Newsletter-related data is retained while the subscription remains active or until consent is withdrawn, subject to any legal documentation obligations that may continue to apply.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures appropriate to the nature of this website and the data processed in order to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or loss.

No internet-based transmission or storage method can guarantee absolute security. We therefore regularly review the website's technical setup and third-party services.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the website, legal requirements, editorial workflows or third-party services change. The current version and update date will always be published on this page.

This Privacy Policy is intended to provide transparent information about the current website setup. It does not constitute individual legal advice.
