Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how SLOP INC. (“SLOP INC.,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects information about you when you visit TEH GREP at tehgrep.comand any related pages, feeds, and email newsletters we operate (together, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described here.

TEH GREP is a satirical, AI-generated publication. This policy concerns the personal information of readers — it is not about the fictional people, companies, or events that appear in our stories.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide to us

We collect information you choose to give us, such as the email address you submit to subscribe to a newsletter, any preferences you set, and the contents of messages you send to us (for example, support or legal requests).

Information we collect automatically

When you use the Service we automatically collect certain technical and usage information, including your device type, browser, operating system, referring pages, the pages and articles you view, and the dates and times of your visits. We also derive an approximate location (such as country or region) from your IP address to power features like local headlines; we do not collect precise GPS location.

Cookies and similar technologies

We and our service providers use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to keep the Service working, remember your preferences (such as theme), and understand how the Service is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling them may affect how parts of the Service function.

2. How We Use Information

We use the information described above to:

• operate, maintain, and improve the Service;
• send the newsletters and transactional emails you request, and manage your subscription and preferences;
• personalize content, including showing region-relevant headlines;
• measure and analyze usage, traffic, and performance of the Service;
• protect the security and integrity of the Service, prevent abuse, and enforce our terms; and
• comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests.

3. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as follows:

• Service providers. With vendors who perform services on our behalf — such as hosting, email delivery, and analytics — who are permitted to use the information only to provide those services.
• Legal and safety. When we believe disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with the law, enforce our terms, or protect the rights, property, or safety of SLOP INC., our users, or others.
• Business transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to this policy.
• With your direction. When you ask us to share information or otherwise consent to its disclosure.

4. Third-Party Services and Links

The Service relies on third-party providers (for example, email and hosting platforms) and may contain links to websites we do not operate. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties, and we encourage you to read their policies.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the Service and for the purposes described in this policy — for example, we keep your newsletter email until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it — and as required to meet our legal, accounting, or reporting obligations.

6. Your Rights and Choices

Newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any newsletter email or by visiting tehgrep.com/unsubscribe.

Depending on where you live (including the EEA/UK and certain U.S. states such as California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@tehgrep.com. We will not discriminate against you for exercising them.

7. International Transfers

We operate the Service from, and use providers located in, the United States and other countries. If you access the Service from outside those countries, your information may be transferred to and processed in a country with different data-protection laws than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

8. Children’s Privacy

The Service is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

9. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Effective” date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
