Ellis Intelligence

Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

Ellis Intelligence LLC ("Ellis Intelligence," "we," "us," or "our") is a Colorado limited liability company and the data controller for purposes of this policy. This Privacy Policy explains what limited personal information we collect through this website (the "Site") during our pre-launch period, why we collect it, and the choices and rights you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. The Short Version

2. Information We Collect

a. Information you give us (if you contact us)

The Site has no forms and does not ask you to submit anything. If you choose to email us — for example, at [email protected] — we receive the email address you sent from and whatever you include in your message. We use this only to respond to you.

b. Information collected automatically (server logs)

The server that hosts the Site may automatically record basic technical information in standard web-server logs (IP address, browser/user-agent, page requested, date and time). This is ordinary operational logging used to run and secure the Site.

c. What we do NOT collect

We do not knowingly collect payment information, account credentials, government identifiers, precise geolocation, or sensitive data through the pre-launch Site. We do not use third-party analytics, advertising pixels, or social-media trackers.

3. Cookies and Tracking

The Ellis Intelligence website (ellisintel.com)

The Site does not use advertising or analytics cookies and does not load third-party trackers. Because we self-host fonts and front-end assets, your browser does not request resources from third-party servers as a result of visiting the Site.

Your choices

You can block or delete cookies in your browser's settings, and the ellisintel.com Site will work normally with every cookie blocked.

Changes and questions

If we start using a different kind of cookie, we change this page before we do, not after. Questions: [email protected].

A full, identically worded version of this section is also published standalone at ellisintel.com/cookies.

4. How We Use Your Information

We do not use your information for advertising, profiling, automated decision-making with legal effects, or sale/sharing to third parties.

5. How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We may disclose information only to service providers strictly necessary to operate the Site and our internal tooling — at present, Cloudflare (hosting, edge network, and access control) and, for company email, Google Workspace — to comply with law or lawful government requests, and in connection with a business transaction, subject to this policy. Our current vendors are listed on our Subprocessors page.

6. Data Retention

If you email us, we keep that correspondence only as long as needed to respond and for a reasonable period afterward, then delete it. Server logs are retained per our hosting provider's defaults.

7. Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures appropriate to the limited, low-sensitivity data we hold. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, opt out of sale/sharing and targeted advertising (we do none of these), and non-discrimination for exercising your rights. To exercise any right, email [email protected].

California (CCPA/CPRA)

We have collected only standard server-log identifiers and, where you chose to contact us, your email address and message content, used solely as described above. We have not "sold" or "shared" personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA/CPRA.

Colorado (Colorado Privacy Act)

Colorado residents have rights of access, correction, deletion, portability, and to opt out of targeted advertising, sale, and certain profiling (we conduct none of these).

EU/EEA/UK (GDPR/UK GDPR)

To the extent the GDPR applies, our legal basis is our legitimate interests in operating and securing the Site and, where you contact us, responding to your message. You may lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

9. Children's Privacy

The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

12. What Changes at Launch

When we move from a pre-launch marketing page to a generally available product, this policy will be expanded to cover user accounts, payments via Stripe, customer content processing (Flask + SQLite + local models, and the Anthropic API where used), an accurate sub-processor list and a DPA for business customers, and any product analytics. Until that update is published, only the pre-launch practices above apply.
