Privacy Policy

How we collect, use, and protect your information, explained in plain language, not legal jargon.

Who We Are

FutureSpark AI is an independent AI tool review site founded by Jessica Kaufman. We test and review AI tools for small business owners, providing honest comparisons and recommendations. Our home on the web is futuresparkai.org.

What Information We Collect

When you sign up for our newsletter, we collect:

  • Your first name so we can address you personally
  • Your email address so we can send you our weekly AI tool reviews

We also use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our site. This collects anonymized data like pages visited and general location. No personal information is tied to this data.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information you share with us to:

  • Send you our weekly AI Tool Breakdown newsletter
  • Notify you about new reviews, comparisons, and occasional deals
  • Understand what content our readers find most useful
The bottom line: We use your information to send you useful content. That's it.

Affiliate Disclosure

Some links on this site are affiliate links. When you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This is how we keep the site running without charging readers.

Here's what matters:

  • We only recommend tools we've personally tested and believe in
  • Affiliate relationships never influence our ratings or recommendations
  • We clearly mark affiliate links with rel="sponsored" per Google's guidelines
  • If a tool isn't good, we'll say so, even if they have an affiliate program
Our commitment: Honesty comes first. Always. If a tool doesn't deserve a recommendation, no commission rate will change that.

Where Your Data Is Stored

Your subscriber information is stored with Resend, our email platform. Resend is a well-established, trusted email service with strong security practices and its own privacy policy.

Who Has Access to Your Data

Only Jessica has access to your information. This is a one-person operation, and that's by design.

We never sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Period.

Data Retention

We keep your information for as long as you remain subscribed to our newsletter. If you unsubscribe, your data is removed from our active mailing list.

If you'd like us to delete your data entirely, just ask. We'll take care of it promptly.

Cookies & Tracking

Our site uses:

  • Google Analytics 4 for anonymized site usage data (pages viewed, traffic sources)
  • Affiliate cookies set by the tools we review when you click affiliate links (these are set by the tool's website, not ours)

We do not use advertising cookies or tracking pixels that follow you around the internet.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct any information that's inaccurate or out of date
  • Delete your data from our systems
  • Unsubscribe from our emails at any time (there's always a link at the bottom)

If we make changes to this privacy policy, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. For significant changes, we'll notify subscribers directly.
