Privacy Policy
How AlgoSample collects, uses, and protects personal information — including data from research participants.
Status of this document
This describes how the website actually works today — what its two forms collect and where that data goes. Sections marked TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT (or / COUNSEL) are legal determinations this document does not make — entity details, lawful basis, retention, jurisdiction- specific rights, and more — and must be resolved before this page is published as AlgoSample's live privacy policy. Effective date: [pending].
Contents
1.Who we are
This policy covers the AlgoSample website at algosample.com — a marketing site for AlgoSample, a market research company. It explains what personal information this website collects, how it's used, and who can access it.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT] Legal entity name, company registration details, and registered business address for AlgoSample.
This policy applies to this website only. It does not cover personal information AlgoSample may collect directly from research participants or panel members through channels outside this site — see "Research participants and panel data" below.
2.Information we collect
This website collects personal information only when you choose to submit one of its two forms. There is no other data collection on this site — no account creation, no newsletter signup, no e-commerce.
- Contact form (algosample.com/contact): your name, email address, and the message you write.
- Career application form (algosample.com/career): your name, email address, phone number, current company, current designation, and a résumé file (PDF, DOC, or DOCX, up to 5MB) that you upload.
We do not run analytics or advertising tracking scripts on this site, and we do not set cookies of our own. See "Cookies and similar technologies" below for the one piece of browser storage the site does use.
3.How we use your information
- Contact form: to respond to your inquiry.
- Career form: to evaluate your application, including the résumé you attach, and to contact you about the role you applied for or other open positions.
We do not use information submitted through these forms for advertising or marketing purposes, and we do not sell it.
4.Legal basis for processing
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT / COUNSEL] Legal basis for processing under applicable data protection law (e.g. GDPR Article 6 — consent, legitimate interest, contract) for the contact form and the career form respectively.
5.Research participants and panel data
AlgoSample is a market research company, but this website does not host or manage a research panel and does not run surveys. It does not collect respondent-level research data. If you took part in a study, your data was handled through that study, not through this site.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT / COUNSEL] If AlgoSample recruits or manages research participants or panels through channels outside this website, a separate, fuller privacy policy covering panel recruitment, survey data, incentive payments, and any special-category data will be needed — this document does not cover that activity.
6.Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Form submissions are processed and stored by Netlify, our forms and hosting provider — see "Service providers and sub-processors" below. Within AlgoSample, submissions are visible to whoever has access to the site's Netlify account; they are not published or shared more broadly.
We may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or in response to a valid legal request.
7.Service providers and sub-processors
This site is hosted on Netlify, and both forms use Netlify Forms to receive and store submissions — including the résumé file uploaded through the career form. Submissions land in the Netlify dashboard for this site's Netlify account; anyone with access to that account can view them.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT] Full list of sub-processors — for example, any email-forwarding or notification integration connected to the Netlify Forms account — and what each one does with submitted data.
8.International data transfers
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT / COUNSEL] Netlify's infrastructure may process and store data outside your country of residence. Confirm the countries/regions involved and the transfer mechanism relied on (e.g. standard contractual clauses) for each.
9.Data retention
As implemented today, form submissions remain in the Netlify Forms dashboard until someone with account access deletes them — there is no automatic deletion.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT] A defined retention period, or deletion trigger, for contact submissions and career applications (including résumés).
10.Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over the personal information you submit to us — for example, to access, correct, or delete it, or to object to or restrict how it's used.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT / COUNSEL] Jurisdiction-specific rights determination (e.g. GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, or other applicable regimes) and the process and timeline for exercising them.
To make a request, contact us using the details in "How to contact us" below.
11.Cookies and similar technologies
This website does not set any cookies of its own, and does not load any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking scripts.
The one piece of browser storage it uses is functional: if you use the theme switcher in the header or footer to choose a color palette, that choice is saved in your browser's localStorage under the key algosample:theme, purely so the site remembers your preference on your next visit. That value stays in your browser — it is never sent to AlgoSample or anyone else. You can clear it at any time through your browser's site-data settings.
12.How we protect your information
This site is served over HTTPS, and form submissions are transmitted over an encrypted connection.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT] Any additional security measures or commitments AlgoSample wants to state — for example, access controls on the Netlify account or résumé-handling practices.
13.Children's privacy
This website is intended for a business audience and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this site.
14.Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the site changes. The effective date below reflects the most recent revision.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT] Confirm the effective date, and whether a specific notice mechanism is required for material changes.
15.How to contact us
Questions about this policy, or requests regarding your personal information, can be sent to hello@algosample.com.
[TO BE COMPLETED BY CLIENT] A dedicated privacy contact or Data Protection Officer, if one is required for your jurisdiction.
