Privacy Policy

Bonafide Artificial does not operate any server-side data collection. There are no registration forms, no accounts, no login systems, no comment systems, and no mechanisms through which you could voluntarily or involuntarily submit personal information to this channel. We do not collect names, email addresses submitted to us directly, physical addresses, payment information, or any data that could identify you as a specific individual.

The subscribe form, if present, is operated through a third-party service. Any data you voluntarily submit there is governed by that service's own privacy terms, not by this policy.

This site uses Google Analytics (GA4) and Google Tag Manager to understand aggregate traffic patterns — how many people visit, which pages resonate most, and where they arrive from. This data is anonymized and aggregated. We do not use it to identify individuals.

Google Analytics may set cookies and collect:

• Your approximate geographic region (country / city level)
• Browser type and device category
• Pages visited and time spent
• Referral source (how you arrived)

This data is processed by Google under their own Privacy Policy. Google Consent Mode v2 is implemented on this site, which means analytics storage is set to denied by default. No analytics data is transmitted until consent signals are received. You may opt out of Google Analytics entirely at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device. Bonafide Artificial itself does not set first-party cookies for tracking or identification purposes. The following third-party cookies may be set depending on your consent status and browser behavior:

• Google Analytics cookies — used for aggregate session and traffic measurement
• Google Tag Manager — a container that may trigger additional scripts based on configuration
• Session storage keys — this site uses browser sessionStorage (not cookies) to remember audio playback position within a single session. This data never leaves your device.

You may block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Doing so will not affect your ability to read this channel.

Transmissions on this channel may link to external websites, YouTube videos, Wikipedia entries, academic publications, and other third-party resources. Once you leave this domain, this privacy policy no longer applies. Those destinations operate under their own data practices. We encourage you to review their policies independently.

Embedded content — such as YouTube iframes — may allow those platforms to collect data about you regardless of whether you interact with the embed. We are not responsible for that data collection and have no access to it.

We operate from the position that identity is a private frequency. We do not attempt to fingerprint, profile, or track individual users across sessions. We have no interest in building an audience segment out of a human being. You are not a data point to this channel. You are a receiver.

If you have submitted your email address through our subscribe function and wish to be removed from any associated list, contact us at specialcathcart@gmail.com and your signal will be cleared from the record.

This channel is not directed at individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect any data from minors. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information to this channel, contact us and we will take immediate steps to remove it.

This policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in our practices or the tools we use. The most current version will always be accessible at this URL. We will update the date below when changes are made. Continued use of this channel following any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
