Main purposes of processing

It is used for organizational, administrative, and internal purposes, and we do not publish its specifics publicly. However, we may release aggregated and anonymized versions of this information, such as in the website and customer usage trend report.

We use your personal information to create your profile, which allows you to submit, gather, aggregate, or share (both publicly and privately) information. As you use our services, we will use, collect, store, record, and organize this information in order to enhance and personalize your experience and/or the website’s features. We have a genuine interest in presenting you with content that is pertinent to you, and we display items in your personalized feed section depending on the topics you follow on our website. Additionally, we may send you email updates with new content that corresponds to the topics you follow. You can manage your Archiology email notifications from the account settings page.

We may use your personal information to contact you with website and service updates, as well as promotional content that we believe may be of interest to you. If you choose to opt out of receiving promotional content, you may do so by following the “unsubscribe” instructions included in our promotional correspondence and on your settings page. However, we have a legitimate interest in notifying you of the account or privacy-related updates.
