1. Scope

This policy applies to techmuz.com and the TechMuz PC planning, catalog, compatibility and editorial services that link to it. It does not govern Newegg, Dell, Best Buy, manufacturers or other third-party websites. Their privacy policies apply after you visit them.

References to “TechMuz,” “we,” “us” or “our” mean the operator of techmuz.com.

2. Information we collect

CategoryExamples and source
Builder and tool inputBudget, intended use, performance target, preferences and component selections you submit. This is used to calculate the requested result and is not saved to a user profile.
Device and request dataIP address, browser or device information, requested URL, referrer, timestamps, request identifiers and error data that web servers and hosting providers ordinarily record.
Merchant-link eventsOffer identifier, merchant and timestamp when a TechMuz merchant redirect is used. Normal server request data may be associated with the same request.
CommunicationsYour email address and the information you choose to send if you contact TechMuz.

TechMuz does not currently offer user accounts or directly collect names, postal addresses, payment-card details or purchase histories. Please do not include sensitive personal information in a message or tool input.

3. How we use information

We use the information described above to:

  • generate PC recommendations and compatibility results requested by you;
  • operate, secure, troubleshoot and improve the site and its data;
  • route you to the merchant or source link you selected and understand whether links function correctly;
  • prevent abuse, investigate errors and protect the rights and safety of users, TechMuz and others;
  • respond to questions and privacy requests; and
  • comply with law and enforce our Terms of Use.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

The current TechMuz application does not set advertising cookies or include behavioral analytics pixels. Essential infrastructure may use short-lived cookies or comparable signals for security, load balancing or reliable delivery. Your browser may also send ordinary request information when it loads media hosted by a manufacturer or another source.

If TechMuz later adds analytics, advertising or personalization technologies, this policy and any required consent controls will be updated before those technologies are used.

5. When information is shared

We may disclose limited information to:

  • hosting, security and technical service providers that process data for us under appropriate restrictions;
  • a merchant, affiliate network or source site when you choose to follow an external link—the destination can receive your IP address, browser details, referrer and any referral parameters in the link;
  • authorities or other parties when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect rights or investigate abuse; and
  • a successor in connection with a merger, financing, reorganization or transfer of the service, subject to applicable law.

6. Sale, sharing and targeted advertising

TechMuz does not currently sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. The site does not currently use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about visitors.

Affiliate links are commercial relationships, but following one does not mean TechMuz sells your personal information. The merchant or affiliate network may independently collect data under its own policy. If TechMuz's practices change, we will provide the notices and opt-out methods required by applicable law.

7. Retention

Builder and compatibility input is processed to return a result and is not retained in an account profile. Server, security, diagnostic and merchant-link logs are kept only as long as reasonably necessary for operation, fraud prevention, troubleshooting, legal compliance and dispute resolution, then deleted or de-identified under the applicable provider and operational schedules.

Communications are retained while needed to respond and maintain an appropriate record of the request.

8. Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the limited information we process. No website or transmission method is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your privacy choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information; learn about the categories, sources, purposes and recipients involved; receive a portable copy; object to or restrict certain processing; withdraw consent; or appeal a decision. Where applicable, you also have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising a privacy right.

Submit a request to privacy@techmuz.com. Describe the right you wish to exercise and the context in which you interacted with TechMuz. Because TechMuz has no user accounts and holds limited logs, we may be unable to associate a record with you. We may ask for information reasonably necessary to verify and complete the request.

You may also control referrer information, cookies and similar browser features through your browser. TechMuz does not currently sell or share personal information in a way that requires an opt-out link.

10. Children

TechMuz is a general-audience service and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

11. International access

TechMuz is designed primarily for the United States market. If you access it from another country, information may be processed in the United States or other places where our providers operate. Those locations may have privacy laws different from the laws where you live.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the service, providers or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top identifies the current version. If a change materially affects how we use personal information, we will provide additional notice where required.

13. Contact

Privacy questions and requests can be sent to privacy@techmuz.com. For general legal terms, see our Terms of Use.
