Privacy Policy
Updated
This policy explains what information WalterWritesAI.com collects when you read it and how that information is used. WalterWritesAI.com is an independent reference guide. It covers this website only. The Walter Writes AI product at walterwrites.ai is run by a separate company with its own privacy policy, linked at the end of this page. To learn who writes this guide and how pages are researched, see about this site and the editorial standards page.
Information we collect
You can read every page on this site without creating an account, and there are no sign-up forms, comment boxes or newsletters. We do not ask for your name, email address, school or payment details, and we do not build visitor profiles.
The site is delivered by Cloudflare, which processes each request (IP address, browser type, requested page and time) to serve the page and to block abusive traffic. Cloudflare may also record anonymous, cookie-free page view counts. We use these aggregate numbers only to understand which guides are read.
Cookies
WalterWritesAI.com sets no advertising, analytics or tracking cookies of its own. Cloudflare can set strictly necessary security cookies, such as the bot management cookie described in its cookie documentation, to tell real visitors from automated attacks. These cookies do not identify you and expire quickly.
Fonts and other third-party resources
Pages load their typeface from Google Fonts, so your browser connects to Google servers when a page opens. Google describes what it receives in its Google Fonts privacy FAQ. Images are served from this site, not from third-party hosts.
Links to other websites
Guides link to official sources such as Walter Writes AI, Turnitin, university policy pages and research papers. Links to walterwrites.ai carry standard campaign parameters that tell that site which guide you came from. Once you leave this site, the destination's own privacy policy applies.
If you write to contact@walterwritesai.com, we use your message only to reply and keep it no longer than needed for that conversation. We do not sell, rent or share email addresses.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, laws such as the GDPR, the UK GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act give you rights to see, correct or delete personal data held about you. Because this site holds no personal data beyond emails you choose to send, most requests can be answered at once. Email us and we will respond within 30 days. UK readers can read how these requests work in the ICO guide to getting copies of your information.
What we never collect
- The text of essays, drafts or documents. This site has no editor and no upload box; any text you rewrite is entered on the vendor's own site.
- Payment or card details. Purchases happen on the vendor's checkout, never here.
- Account passwords, student numbers or school login details.
- Precise location, contacts or device identifiers for advertising.
Why we process this information
Under the GDPR and the UK GDPR, request data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests: delivering pages quickly, keeping the site secure and understanding which guides are useful. Emails are processed so we can answer the person who wrote to us. We never use visitor data for advertising, profiling or automated decisions about individuals.
How long information is kept
Request logs and security events are kept by Cloudflare for the periods set out in its own policy, then deleted or aggregated. Emails are deleted once a conversation is finished and no follow-up is expected. Aggregate page view counts contain no personal data and may be kept as long as they are useful.
Security and international transfers
Every page is served over HTTPS. Cloudflare runs a global network, so a request may be handled in a data center outside your country; Cloudflare describes the safeguards it uses for international transfers in its privacy policy. If you find a security problem, the contact details are in our security.txt file.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Because the site does not track visitors across websites or sell personal information, there is nothing to switch off. Browser signals such as Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are respected by default.
Questions readers often ask
Does this site see what I paste into Walter Writes AI? No. The humanizer, detector and editor run on walterwrites.ai. Nothing you type there passes through this site, and we cannot see your documents, your account or your usage.
Do you share data with Walter AI Inc.? No personal data is shared. When you follow a link to walterwrites.ai, the link itself tells that site which guide you came from, in the same way any referring website does.
Can I browse with an ad blocker or privacy extension? Yes. Every page works without third-party scripts, and blocking Google Fonts only changes the typeface to your system default.
Children
This site is written for a general audience of students, educators and writers. It is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from them.
Changes and contact
When this policy changes, the date at the top of the page changes with it. Questions about privacy go to contact@walterwritesai.com. For the rules that govern use of this site, read the terms of service; for billing questions about the product itself, see the refund guide.
The Walter Writes AI product has its own policy for data you enter into its editor.
