1. Introduction

AROLODEXZ is a modern digital Rolodex designed to improve access, visibility, and connection between people and services.

Privacy is not a checkbox.
It is part of the system design.

This Privacy Policy explains:
• what data we collect
• why we collect it
• how it is used
• how it is protected
• and what rights users have

This policy applies to all users, including visitors, registered users, and listed professionals, services, and goods.

2. Data We Collect

We collect only data that is necessary for platform functionality, security, and user-requested features.

Account & Profile Data
• Name or business name
• Email address
• Profile or service information you choose to publish

Usage Data
• Device type and browser
• IP address (anonymized where possible)
• Interaction data (pages viewed, actions taken)

Technical & Security Data
• Logs required for security, fraud prevention, and system stability

We do NOT:
• collect hidden data
• scrape personal content
• track users across unrelated websites
• collect sensitive personal data unless explicitly required and consented

3. How We Use Your Data

Your data exists to serve access — not exploitation.

We use data to:
• display and manage user or business profiles
• enable search, discovery, and direct connection
• improve platform performance and reliability
• ensure security and prevent abuse
• provide essential system communication

We do NOT:
• use personal data for targeted advertising
• create behavioral profiles for sale or manipulation

4. AI & Automation

AROLODEXZ may use automated systems or AI-supported tools only as assistance layers.

These systems:
• help organize information
• improve relevance and clarity
• support platform operations

They do NOT:
• make final decisions for users
• restrict access based on opaque logic
• replace human judgment

AI supports the system.
It does not control outcomes.

Human choice and agency remain central at all times.

5. Data Sharing

We share data only when strictly necessary, and only with trusted infrastructure partners.

This may include:
• hosting and cloud providers
• security and performance monitoring services
• email or communication providers
• legal authorities (only if required by law)

We never sell, rent, or trade data to advertisers or third parties.

6. Cookies & Tracking

AROLODEXZ uses only functional and minimal cookies.

Cookies are used to:
• maintain secure sessions
• ensure platform functionality
• understand anonymous usage patterns

You remain in control.
You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time.

We do NOT use third-party tracking cookies for advertising.

7. User Rights (GDPR / EU)

Under EU GDPR, you have the right to:
• access your personal data
• correct inaccurate data
• delete your data (“right to be forgotten”)
• export your data (data portability)
• restrict or object to processing
• withdraw consent at any time

Requests can be sent to: info@arolodexz.com

8. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored on EU-compliant servers and protected using:

• industry-standard encryption
• access control and authentication systems
• secure infrastructure practices

Security is part of the architecture — not an afterthought.

9. Children’s Privacy

AROLODEXZ is not intended for users under the age of 16.

We do not knowingly collect data from minors.
If such data is identified, it will be removed immediately.

10. Changes to This Policy

As AROLODEXZ evolves, this policy may be updated.

Changes take effect upon publication.
Continued use of the platform indicates acceptance of the updated policy.

We will never retroactively weaken user rights.
