Privacy Policy: Data Governance in the Generative Era
Effective Date: February 18, 2026
1. Introduction: Our Commitment to Data Privacy
At AI SEO Leicester, we bridge the gap between human strategy and machine precision. As a leader in AI-Native digital marketing and Entity SEO, we recognize that the integration of artificial intelligence requires a higher standard of transparency. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, process, and protect your data, specifically addressing the unique complexities of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and AI-driven analytics.
We are committed to ensuring that your data is handled with the same integrity we apply to our ranking strategies, maintaining strict compliance with UK GDPR and evolving AI governance standards.
2. Data Collection & AI Interaction
We collect information to provide high-performance SEO and PPC services tailored to Leicester SMEs.
Information You Provide
- Contact Data: Names, email addresses, and phone numbers provided via our Free AI SEO Audit or “Contact Us” forms.
- Account Data: Information necessary for service delivery, billing, and project management.
AI-Specific Data Processing
When you engage with our utility tools, such as the Video Audit Preview, our systems process specific inputs:
- User Prompts: Technical queries submitted to our diagnostic AI tools.
- Uploaded Documents: Website URLs, sitemaps, or technical exports uploaded for SEO audits.
- Search Queries: Keywords and brand entities analyzed to develop your Knowledge Graph strengthening strategy.
3. How We Use Your Data
Your data is used exclusively to fuel your brand’s growth in the generative era.
Standard Service Delivery
We use collected data to perform predictive analytics, manage Smart campaigns, and optimize your presence in AI Overviews.
AI Disclosure: Model Training
AI SEO Leicester does not use client-specific data or proprietary prompts to train public Large Language Models (LLMs). Your competitive advantages, niche keywords, and internal data remain your intellectual property. We maintain a “Human-in-the-loop” (HITL) protocol to ensure all AI-generated insights are verified by our SEO Experts in Leicester.
4. Third-Party AI Processors
To deliver “Machine Precision,” we utilize industry-leading sub-processors. Your data may be processed through:
- Large Language Model Providers: Secure API instances of OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini.
- Cloud Infrastructure: Data storage and computation via Google Cloud (UK/EU regions where possible).
- SEO Diagnostic Tools: Specialized AI platforms for Core Web Vitals analysis and Semantic SEO mapping.
5. Automated Decision-Making
Under GDPR, we disclose that we use AI for automated analysis that may impact your service experience:
- Performance Forecasting: AI models may automatically determine the projected ROI for specific Google PPC bidding strategies.
- Technical Prioritization: Our AI SEO Strategy tools automatically categorize website errors by “Critical Fix” priority to streamline your audit results.
Note: These automated processes do not have legal or similarly significant effects on your personal status, but they are fundamental to our Predictive Analytics.
6. User Rights & Human Intervention
We empower our clients with full control over their digital footprint:
- Right to Access & Deletion: You may request a copy of the data we hold or ask for its permanent erasure from our active service logs.
- Right to Human Intervention: You have the right to contest an AI-generated result (such as a specific SEO recommendation or PPC forecast) and request a manual review by our Leicester SEO Agency specialists.
- Data Portability: Request your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
7. Data Retention & Scrubbing
We do not retain data longer than necessary for the purposes of UX Validation and strategy execution.
- Audit Logs: Data submitted for a “one-off” Free AI SEO Audit is typically scrubbed from our AI processing logs within 90 days of the report generation.
- Active Clients: Data is retained for the duration of the service contract to maintain historical Success Stories data and performance tracking.
- Security: All data is protected by modern encryption standards.
