1. Overview

Open Model Weights is an independent information resource for open-weight AI. This policy explains the categories of personal information that may be processed when you use openmodelweights.com or contact us.

For privacy inquiries, contact info@openmodelweights.com.

2. Information we process

Website access and security

When you access the website, technical information such as your IP address, browser or device details, requested pages and access times may be processed to deliver the service, maintain reliability and protect it from misuse. Cloudflare provides website infrastructure and related security services.

Website analytics

We use Umami Analytics to understand website usage, including page views, visits and referral information. Technical data such as IP addresses and browser details may be processed in connection with analytics. These insights help us evaluate and improve the website. We do not ask you to identify yourself to browse the site.

Email and partnership inquiries

If you email us, we receive the information you provide, such as your email address, your name if included, the message and associated delivery information. We use it to respond, discuss potential collaborations, review feedback and manage the correspondence. Our email service is provided by Hostinger.

Browser preferences

Some website features may store selections or preferences in your browser so they remain available on your device.

3. Why we use this information

We process information to provide and secure the website, understand its use, improve the visitor experience and respond to people who contact us. Where relevant privacy laws require a legal basis, these activities may be based on legitimate interests in operating and improving the service, taking steps requested before a potential agreement, or compliance with legal obligations. Consent is required where applicable law requires it.

4. Service providers and transfers

Cloudflare supports website delivery and security, Umami supports usage analytics, and Hostinger provides email services. These providers may process relevant data to deliver their services, subject to their own applicable privacy terms and contractual safeguards.

Information may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, applicable legal protections for international transfers must be observed.

5. How long information is kept

Technical information is retained only as needed for website delivery, security and service operation under applicable provider settings. Analytics information is retained as needed to understand usage trends. Correspondence is kept for the duration of the inquiry and any reasonable follow-up or applicable legal requirement. Retention periods can vary depending on the data and service involved.

6. Your choices and rights

Depending on the laws applicable to you, you may have rights to request access to, correction or deletion of personal information, restriction of processing, portability, or to object to certain processing. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw that consent. You may also have the right to complain to a relevant data protection authority.

To make a privacy request, email info@openmodelweights.com. We will assess requests in line with applicable law. You can also manage browser storage and privacy preferences through your browser settings.

7. External websites

Our pages may link to third-party sites. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this one.

8. Changes to this policy

We may revise this policy when our services or legal requirements change. The update date above indicates the current version.
