Protecting children's privacy online is of the highest importance. AIToolKhojo is an educational and technical directory intended for general audiences, professionals, developers, and creators aged 13 and older. The website is not structured or directed toward children under 13 years of age.

AIToolKhojo does not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If a parent, guardian, or legal representative believes that a child under 13 has provided personal information on our website (e.g. through our contact form), please contact us immediately at contact@aitoolkhojo.com, and our team will promptly take all necessary steps to permanently delete such information from our records.

7. Outbound Links to Third-Party AI Services

AIToolKhojo contains links to hundreds of third-party software websites, model developer portals, documentation repositories, and external AI tools (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Midjourney, Hugging Face, etc.).

Please be aware that once you click on an outbound link and leave aitoolkhojo.com, you are subject to the privacy practices and terms of service of that external website. We have no control over and assume no legal responsibility or liability for the content, privacy policies, data security, or practices of any third-party websites or services. We strongly encourage all users to review the privacy policy of every external site they visit.

8. Data Security and Retention

We employ industry-standard technical, administrative, and organizational measures (including SSL/TLS encryption, secure PDO database abstractions, access controls, and firewall defenses) to safeguard collected communication data against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure.

We retain voluntary contact inquiries only for as long as necessary to fulfill the editorial, customer support, or technical purposes for which they were collected, or as required by applicable law.

9. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may periodically update our Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our operational practices, new directory features, or evolving legal and regulatory requirements. When updates occur, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date at the top of the policy.
