Privacy Policy - Priventix

Priventix ("Priventix", "we", "us", "our") operates antivirusguide-2026.com (the "Site") on behalf of Priventix. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how and why we use it, who we share it with, and the choices and rights you have. It applies to visitors and customers of the Site in the United States. This Policy is a notice about our practices; it is not a contract and does not limit rights provided by law.

1. Personal information we collect

We collect the following categories of personal information:

Information you provide — name, email address, phone number, billing and postal address, order details, and anything you include in support requests.
Payment information — processed by our third-party payment provider. We receive limited details such as the last four digits of your card, card type, and billing name/address; we do not store full card numbers (see "Payment processing").
Technical and usage data — IP address, device and browser type, operating system, referring/exit pages, pages viewed, and timestamps, and approximate location inferred from your IP address.
Cookies and device identifiers — set by us and our partners through cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies (see "Cookies, analytics & advertising").
Marketing and attribution identifiers — campaign, click, tracking, affiliate and sub-affiliate identifiers and UTM parameters, used to attribute referrals and pay our marketing partners correctly.
Information from third parties — from advertising, analytics, and affiliate partners and from fraud-prevention providers.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you. Please do not send sensitive personal information in free-form support messages unless it is necessary to resolve your request.

2. How we use your information

Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and our products and services.
Process and fulfil orders, subscriptions, renewals, and payments.
Provide customer support and respond to your requests.
Attribute conversions and calculate and pay commissions to marketing partners.
Measure, analyse, and improve our marketing and the performance of the Site.
Personalise content and deliver and measure advertising, including across other sites and platforms.
Detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, chargebacks, abuse, and security incidents.
Comply with legal, tax, and regulatory obligations, and enforce our terms.
Send you service and transactional messages, and — where permitted or with your consent — marketing communications you can opt out of at any time.

3. Cookies, analytics & advertising technologies

We and our partners may use cookies, pixels, tags, SDKs, and similar technologies for functions that are strictly necessary, for analytics, and for advertising and measurement. This includes third-party analytics and advertising services such as Google, Meta (Facebook), and Microsoft, and affiliate-network tracking. These technologies may set identifiers used to measure campaigns and to deliver targeted advertising across different sites and services. You can control these through the choices described in "Your privacy choices" and in our Cookie Policy. Where required by applicable law, we process a Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as a request to opt out of sale, sharing, or targeted advertising for the browser and device that sends it.

4. Payment processing

Payments are handled by a third-party, PCI-DSS-compliant payment processor. Your card details are provided directly to that processor; we do not receive or store your full card number. We retain order and billing records needed to fulfil your purchase, provide support, prevent fraud, and meet our legal and accounting obligations.

5. Fraud prevention

We and our service providers use personal, device, technical, and marketing-identifier information to detect and prevent fraud, chargebacks, and abuse of our offers. This may include automated screening of orders and traffic. Where such processing significantly affects you, you may contact us to request human review.

6. Marketing partners & attribution

Independent affiliates and publishers refer traffic to our offers. We use click, tracking, and sub-affiliate identifiers to attribute sales to the correct partner and to calculate commissions. We may share limited conversion data — for example, that a sale occurred and its value — with the referring partner or network for attribution and payment. Marketing partners are responsible for their own privacy practices on the sites and channels they operate.

7. Service providers & processors

We share personal information with vendors that process it on our behalf under contract, including providers of hosting and infrastructure, payment processing, email and notifications, analytics, advertising and measurement, customer support, and fraud prevention. They may use the information only to provide services to us.

8. How we share information; "sale" and "sharing"

We may disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients:

Service providers and processors (as above).
Advertising and analytics partners, and affiliate networks.
Payment processors and fraud-prevention providers.
Legal, regulatory, or law-enforcement authorities where required, and to protect our rights.
A successor entity in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

We do not sell your personal information for money. However, our use of advertising and analytics technologies to deliver and measure ads across other sites may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information (including for cross-context behavioral advertising) under some U.S. state privacy laws. You can opt out — see "Your privacy choices" below.

9. Data retention

We keep personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described in this Policy — including to provide the services, to comply with legal, tax, and accounting obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. Order and billing records are typically retained for the period required by applicable law. When information is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it.

10. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us at support@priventix.ai and we will delete it.

12. Your U.S. state privacy rights

Depending on your state of residence (including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Utah, Texas, Oregon, and other states with comprehensive privacy laws), you may have the right to:

Know about and access the personal information we hold about you.
Correct inaccurate personal information.
Delete personal information.
Obtain a portable copy of your personal information.
Opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information and of targeted advertising.
Not be discriminated against for exercising your rights.

To exercise these rights, email us at support@priventix.ai. We will verify your request using information associated with your account or order, and may ask for additional information to confirm your identity. You may use an authorised agent where the law allows. If we decline your request, you may appeal by replying to our response.

13. California disclosures

In the preceding 12 months we may have collected these categories of personal information (as defined by the CCPA/CPRA): identifiers; customer records and commercial information; internet or other electronic network activity; approximate geolocation; and inferences. We collect it from the sources, and use and disclose it for the business purposes, described in this Policy. We disclose identifiers and internet-activity information to advertising and analytics partners, which may constitute "selling" or "sharing" under California law; you can opt out as described below. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of consumers under 16. California residents may also request information under California's "Shine the Light" law by contacting us.

14. Your privacy choices & opt-out

Opt out of sale/sharing and targeted advertising — email us at support@priventix.ai with the subject "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information".
Global Privacy Control (GPC) — where required by applicable law, we process a GPC signal as an opt-out request for that browser and device.
Cookies — you can control or delete cookies through your browser settings and, where offered, our cookie controls.
Marketing emails — use the unsubscribe link in any marketing email, or contact us.

15. International data transfers

Priventix operates from the Netherlands and works with service providers in the United States and elsewhere. Your personal information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than the one you live in, whose data-protection laws may differ from your own. Where required, we put appropriate safeguards in place for such transfers.

16. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. We will change the "Last updated" date above and, for material changes, provide additional notice where required. Your continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised Policy.

17. Contact us
