Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

a. Automated Telemetry & Log Data: When you access Mundoscope, our edge infrastructure (Cloudflare) automatically records standard technical metadata, including your browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, timestamps, and anonymized network identifiers to ensure security, prevent automated abuse, and measure aggregate site performance.

b. Voluntary Information: If you subscribe to our research dispatch newsletter or contact our editorial team directly via email, we collect the email address and any correspondence details you voluntarily provide. We do not sell, rent, or trade your email address to third-party data brokers.

2. Cookies, Affiliate Tracking & Third-Party Links

Mundoscope participates in B2B software affiliate and partner programs (including PartnerStack, Impact.com, Make, RunPod, and direct software vendor referral programs). When you click on an outbound partner link on our platform (such as links routed through /go/[slug]), the destination merchant or affiliate network may place a tracking cookie or web beacon on your browser solely to attribute the referral and calculate partner commissions.

We may also utilize third-party advertising networks (such as Google AdSense) that use cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve relevant advertisements based on your prior visits to our website or other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

3. How We Use Information

We process collected information strictly to:

• Deliver and optimize our technical benchmark reports and interactive TCO calculators;
• Send periodic research dispatches to users who explicitly opt in;
• Monitor and protect our infrastructure against malicious bots, scraping, and DDoS attacks;
• Comply with applicable legal, tax, and regulatory obligations.

4. Your Privacy Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your jurisdiction (including the European Economic Area under GDPR, the United Kingdom, California under CCPA/CPRA, and the Republic of Korea under PIPA), you have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal data we hold about you, as well as the right to withdraw consent for newsletter communications at any time.

You can disable cookies at any time through your individual browser settings without losing access to our public benchmark reports and cost calculators.
