Halusky Inc. ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or use our services, including serving ads on third-party websites ("publishers").
We generate contextual ads using large language models and integrate them into chatbot and LLM (Large Language Model) applications. We are committed to never use personally identifiable information (PII) to select advertisements or generate ad content. Instead, we use contextual data, such as messages in the conversation, character persona or high level session metadata (eg. time of the day, country code etc.).
This Privacy Policy is divided into multiple parts to address different user interactions with our services. Part I covers individuals who interact directly with our services, such as visiting our website or using our dashboard, where we may collect personal data and use cookies. Part II addresses individuals who see our ads on third-party websites, where we immediately discard any PI. Each part outlines the specific scope and practices related to data collection, use, and sharing for these different user groups. Finally, Part III covers general provisions applicable to all users.
