What the site collects
Nothing on these pages asks you for personal information. The pages are static files. There is no sign-up, no comment form and no tracking pixel.
The checkout calculator
The checkout savings calculator does its arithmetic in your browser using a small script on the page. The numbers you type are not sent to us or to anyone else, and they are not stored.
Cookies and analytics
The site does not set cookies and does not run analytics or advertising scripts. If that changes, this page will be updated first and the change will be recorded in the corrections log.
Hosting logs
Like any website, the hosting provider may keep standard server logs of requests, such as the time, the page requested and technical details your browser sends. The Institute does not use those logs to identify visitors.
If you write to hello@bestaishoppingassistant.com or press@bestaishoppingassistant.com, we use your message and address only to reply and to handle a correction or nomination.
Links to other sites
The Institute links to Saparo (saparo.ai) and to the related Best AI Shopping Agent Awards. Those sites have their own practices. Saparo publishes its own privacy policy.
Relationship
The Institute is operated in association with Saparo, the product ranked first. See the About page.
