Privacy Notice

Effective from [DATE] · Last updated [DATE]

This notice explains what personal data we collect through aitrianglebook.com, why we collect it, who we share it with and what you can ask us to do with it. We collect as little as we can: we don't use advertising, tracking cookies or analytics on this website.

Who we are

The website and the book The AI Triangle 2027 are run by Jalhaja Technology Limited, a company registered in Hong Kong ([REGISTERED ADDRESS]). We decide how your personal data is used, so we are responsible for it.

Privacy contact: Paul K.H. Kim, Director. Email [email protected].

What we collect and why

When	What we collect	Why	How long we keep it
You sign up for the free chapters	Your email address, the language of the page you used, and the date and time you signed up and confirmed	To send you the Introduction and Chapter 1, then one short email a month on how the book's predictions are going. We do this because you asked us to (your consent).	Until you unsubscribe. After that we keep only your address on a do-not-email list, so we never write to you again by mistake.
You buy the book	Your name, email address, country, what you bought and the price paid. Payhip and its payment providers handle your card or PayPal details; we never see them.	To deliver the book, mark your copy (see below), send the free updates you bought (Editions 1.1 and 1.2) and keep tax and accounting records. This is needed to carry out our sale to you, and the law requires the records.	For as long as we send updates for your edition, and purchase records for 7 years, as Hong Kong law requires for business records.
You email us	Your email address and whatever you write	To reply to you	Up to 2 years after our last exchange, unless the matter needs longer
You visit the website	Your IP address, browser type and the page requested, which every web server receives	To deliver the page and protect the site against attacks. We don't use this data to identify you or build a profile.	Kept by our hosting provider for a short period under its own policy

Your name or email on your copy

To discourage illegal copying, every page of the PDF you buy shows the email address you bought it with. Please keep that in mind before you print or share pages.

We don't sell your data

We never sell, rent or trade your personal data, and we don't use it for advertising.

Who we share it with

We use a few service providers to run the website, the shop and the email list. They process your data only on our instructions.

Provider	What they do for us	Where
MailerLite (UAB MailerLite)	Keeps the email list and sends our emails	Lithuania (EU)
Payhip (Payhip Ltd)	Runs the shop, delivers and stamps the book, and handles VAT on sales	United Kingdom
Stripe and PayPal	Take your payment on Payhip's checkout, under their own privacy policies	United States, Ireland and other countries
Cloudflare, Inc.	Hosts the website and email forwarding for [email protected]	United States, with servers worldwide
Google LLC (Google Fonts)	Supplies the website's typefaces; your browser connects to Google to load them	United States

We may also disclose personal data if the law requires it, for example to a court or a tax authority.

Transfers outside your country

We are in Hong Kong, and our providers are in the countries listed above, so your data will be processed outside your own country. We choose providers that protect data to a standard comparable with Hong Kong law and, for readers in the EU and UK, that use the European Commission's standard contractual clauses or an equivalent safeguard. Data is transferred over encrypted connections when you sign up, buy the book or visit the site.

Your rights

Wherever you live, you can ask us to:

tell you what personal data we hold about you and give you a copy;
correct data that is wrong;
delete your data, unless the law requires us to keep it (such as purchase records);
stop sending you emails: use the unsubscribe link at the foot of every email, or write to us;
withdraw your consent at any time. This doesn't affect what we did before you withdrew it.

Email [email protected]. We reply within 30 days. We may ask you to confirm your identity first, usually by replying from the address concerned. We don't charge for this, unless a request is plainly excessive.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, please tell us first. You can also complain to the privacy regulator where you live, such as Hong Kong's Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data, Korea's Personal Information Protection Commission, or your national data protection authority in the EU or UK.

Children

The book and the email list are meant for adults. We don't knowingly collect data from children under 14. If you believe a child has signed up, tell us and we will delete the data.

Security

The website uses encrypted connections (HTTPS). Only the author has access to the email list and the sales records, and the accounts are protected by two-step login. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach ever put your data at risk, we would tell you and the regulator as the law requires.

Changes to this notice

If we change this notice, we will post the new version here with a new date. If a change matters to you, such as a new use of your data, we will email the people affected before it takes effect.
