Privacy Policy

Appboxs is an independent technology publication providing SaaS journalism, workflow guides, interactive utilities, and a press release distribution wire.

Our core data privacy principles are straightforward:

• We do not sell personal data: We never sell, rent, or trade your personal details or contact information to data brokers or third-party advertisers.
• Data minimization: We collect only the information strictly necessary to authenticate accounts, review submissions, send transactional receipts, and prevent spam.
• Client-side tool privacy: Interactive tools (such as the Airtable Formula Generator and UTM Builder) compute outputs locally in your browser. We do not transmit or store the formulas or campaign inputs you type into our free tools.

We collect information in the following ways depending on how you interact with Appboxs:

• Account & Login Data: When signing in, you provide an email address to receive a passwordless magic sign-in link. We do not store passwords.
• Press Release Submissions: Information provided when submitting an announcement, including company name, website, headline, body copy, executive quotes, media spokesperson contact details (name, email, phone number), and uploaded images/logos.
• Guest Contributor Submissions: Author profile details, including author name, email, biography, social profile links, and article drafts.
• Newsletter Subscriptions: Your email address when you voluntarily subscribe to our daily or weekly digests.
• Automated & Device Data: When browsing our pages, standard web server logs automatically record IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, referring URLs, pages viewed, and access timestamps.

The information we collect is used strictly for the following purposes:

• Platform Operation: Delivering web pages, rendering articles, and providing account dashboard access.
• Editorial Review & Publication: Reviewing submitted press releases and contributor drafts, communicating revision requests, and publishing approved releases to our public wire.
• Transactional Communications: Sending submission confirmations, editorial review status updates, and sign-in authentication links.
• Security & Abuse Prevention: Verifying requests via Cloudflare Turnstile, detecting automated bot attacks, rate-limiting spam submissions, and maintaining server uptime.
• Compliance: Fulfilling our legal obligations and responding to enforceable regulatory requests.

To provide a fast and secure service, Appboxs relies on trusted third-party cloud infrastructure providers. Each provider operates under strict data security and confidentiality agreements:

If you need to update or remove an outdated media spokesperson contact on an active release, contact our press desk at press@mail.appboxs.com.

We implement robust technical and organizational security controls to safeguard your data:

• Encryption: All network traffic between your browser, our servers, and third-party APIs is encrypted in transit using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3 / HTTPS). Database storage is encrypted at rest.
• Access Controls: Access to user submission data and databases is strictly restricted to authorized engineering personnel using role-based access controls and two-factor authentication.
• Retention Period: Account data and submission history are retained as long as your account remains active or as needed to maintain editorial archives. You may request account deletion at any time.

Regardless of your geographical location, Appboxs provides you with the following rights regarding your personal information:

• Right of Access: You can request a copy of the personal information we maintain about you.
• Right of Rectification: You can request correction of inaccurate or incomplete profile data.
• Right of Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You may request that we delete your account and personal identifiers from our systems.
• Opt-Out of Communications: Every promotional or newsletter email includes a direct, one-click unsubscribe link at the bottom.
