Privacy &
Cookie Notice

Clear choices. Limited collection. Security by design.

Overview

Astra Tech, LLC (“Astra,” “we,” “us”) is responsible for the personal information described in this notice. This notice applies to the Astra Labs website, private areas of the site, and secure video presentations.

We use only the technology needed to operate and secure the site unless you choose to allow analytics. Optional analytics is disabled by default and Google Analytics is not loaded until you consent.

02

Information we use

Information you provide

If you contact us or request access, we may receive your name, company, email address, message, and any other information you choose to provide.

Site and device information

Our hosting and security providers necessarily process technical request information such as IP address, browser and device information, timestamps, and requested pages to deliver the site, prevent abuse, and maintain reliability.

Optional analytics

If you accept analytics, Google Analytics may process a random Astra viewer identifier, page paths, interaction events, approximate location, referrer information, and browser or device details. For secure presentations, analytics may include opens, playback starts, progress milestones, completion, fullscreen use, and session-end events.

We configure analytics without advertising signals or ad personalization. Page locations sent by Astra omit query strings so a private share key is not included in analytics.

03

Private video sharing

Private presentations use essential security records even when analytics is rejected. When an invited recipient successfully unlocks a presentation, we create a time-limited secure session and an access record so we can deliver the presentation, confirm intended use, investigate abuse, and protect confidential material.

The access record can include the presentation identifier, opening time, an anonymous session or viewer identifier, coarse country/region/city and timezone supplied by our hosting platform, referring hostname, and browser user-agent. The access key itself is not written to the analytics event stream or the access record.

These records are stored with Firebase and are retained only for as long as reasonably needed for client service, security, audit, and legal purposes.

04

Cookies & local storage

Cookies are small browser records; local storage is similar browser-based storage. The specific names below may vary by presentation or Google Analytics property.

NameCategoryPurposeDuration

05

Your choices

You can accept, reject, or customize optional analytics from the privacy banner. Rejecting analytics does not prevent access to the public site or an authorized private presentation.

You can change your choice at any time. Withdrawing consent stops future analytics events and removes Astra’s analytics identifier and accessible Google Analytics cookies from your browser. It does not affect processing that occurred before withdrawal.

07

Service providers and transfers

We use service providers to run these services, including Google Analytics and Firebase (Google), and Vercel for site hosting and edge delivery. They process information for us under their respective service terms and may process information in the United States or other countries where they operate.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or safety, in connection with a corporate transaction, or when you direct us to do so. We do not use this site’s analytics for targeted advertising and do not sell personal information collected through this site.

08

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to use of your personal information; receive a portable copy; withdraw consent; or complain to your local data-protection authority. Some rights are subject to legal exceptions.

To make a request, email us using the address below. We may need to verify your identity before completing it.
