Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 3, 2026

This Privacy Policy (the "Policy") describes how ByteSlice LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("ByteSlice LLC," "we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, and discloses information when you visit the website at byteslice.co (the "Site"). By using the Site, you acknowledge the practices described in this Policy.

1. Scope: Swirls.ai Is Not Covered by This Policy

This Policy applies only to byteslice.co. ByteSlice LLC is the holding company for Swirls.ai. Swirls.ai is a separate product with its own privacy policy at swirls.ai. If you use Swirls.ai, the Swirls.ai privacy policy governs the collection and use of your data on that platform.

2. Information We Collect

The Site is an informational and blog website. It does not have account registration, payment forms, or data-collection forms. We collect only the following:

• Analytics and Usage Data. When you visit the Site, we automatically collect technical information including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and the date and time of your visit. This data is collected through PostHog, our analytics provider (described in Section 4 below).
• Voluntary Email Contact. The Site's footer includes a mailto link. If you choose to email us, we will receive your email address and the contents of your message. We use this information only to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent.

We do not collect payment information, government identifiers, or sensitive personal data of any kind through this Site.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Understand how visitors use the Site and which content is most useful
• Identify and fix technical problems with the Site
• Respond to emails you send us
• Enforce these Terms of Service and comply with applicable law

We do not use your information for advertising, behavioral profiling, or sale to third parties.

4. Cookies and Analytics (PostHog)

We use PostHog (posthog.com) to collect analytics data about how the Site is used. PostHog sets cookies and uses similar tracking technologies in your browser to recognize repeat visits and measure usage patterns. The information PostHog collects on our behalf includes page views, session duration, click events, and the technical data listed in Section 2.

PostHog acts as a data processor on our behalf. PostHog's own privacy policy is available at posthog.com/privacy. PostHog may process data on servers located in the United States or other jurisdictions.

You can instruct your browser to refuse cookies or to notify you when cookies are being set. Most browsers also support opt-out mechanisms for analytics tracking. If you disable cookies, the Site will still function, though PostHog will not be able to recognize your session across page loads.

5. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:

• Service Providers. We share data with PostHog as described in Section 4. We may also share data with hosting and infrastructure providers who process it on our behalf under appropriate confidentiality obligations.
• Legal Requirements. We may disclose information if required to do so by law, court order, or valid government request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of ByteSlice LLC, its members, or the public.
• Business Transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all of our assets, information held by us may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We will notify you of any such change by updating this Policy.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Data Retention

Analytics data collected through PostHog is retained in accordance with PostHog's data retention settings, which we configure to retain data only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy. Emails you send us are retained for as long as needed to resolve your inquiry and comply with applicable legal obligations. We do not retain personal data longer than necessary.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate personal information
• Request deletion of your personal information
• Object to or restrict certain processing of your personal information
• Opt out of the sale of your personal information (we do not sell personal information)

To exercise any of these rights, email us at the address in Section 11. We will respond within the time period required by applicable law. Note that because the Site collects minimal personal data, we may have little or no data linked to you to retrieve, correct, or delete. For data held by PostHog on our behalf, we will work with PostHog to fulfill your request.

9. Children's Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take prompt steps to delete it. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us using the information in Section 11.

10. Third-Party Links

The Site may contain links to third-party websites, including swirls.ai and external resources referenced in blog posts. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site before providing personal information.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
