Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 2, 2026 | Entity: Tage Labs LLC | Website: https://tagelabs.com
Introduction & Who We Are
Welcome to TageLabs (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and safeguard your data when you visit and interact with our website at https://www.tagelabs.com
Information We Collect
A. Comments & Community Interactions
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect:
- The data submitted in the comments form (such as your name, email address, and comment text).
- The visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to aid in spam and abuse detection.
Gravatar Service: An anonymized string created from your email address (a cryptographic hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to verify whether you use their service. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Upon approval of your comment, your profile picture becomes publicly visible alongside your comment.
B. Media Uploads
If you upload images or media files to our website, please ensure they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website have the ability to download and extract embedded location data from publicly accessible images.
C. User Accounts & Registration
For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided within your user profile.
- You may access, update, or delete your personal details at any time (with the exception of your username).
- Website administrators can also view and edit this information to provide account support.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience, remember your preferences, and maintain session security. The table below outlines the primary types of cookies used on our platform:
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Comment Cookies | Saves name, email address, and website for auto-filling future comment forms. | 1 Year |
| Session Verification | Temporary check to confirm browser accepts cookies upon visiting login page. | Session end |

Embedded Content From Third-Party Websites
Articles and pages on this site may feature embedded content (such as videos, images, social feeds, and articles). Embedded content from third-party services functions identically to visiting those external platforms directly.
These third-party platforms may collect data about you, utilize their own tracking cookies, incorporate additional third-party analytics, and monitor your interactions with the embedded content—particularly if you maintain an active account and are logged into that service.
Data Sharing & Security
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. Data sharing is limited to essential operational and security needs:
- Password Reset Requests: If you initiate a password reset, your current IP address will be included in the reset confirmation email for security verification.
- Spam & Abuse Protection: Visitor comments and submitted form data may be screened through automated spam detection services.
Data Retention
- Comments: Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely. This enables us to automatically recognize, verify, and approve follow-up comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue.
- Account Profiles: Registered user data is maintained for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide services, resolve disputes, or comply with legal obligations.
Depending on applicable privacy regulations, you have specific rights concerning your personal information:
Your Rights Over Your Data
- Data Access & Portability: If you hold an account or have submitted comments, you may request an exported file containing all personal data we hold about you.
- Data Erasure: You may request that we erase personal data we have collected about you. This does not extend to information we are legally, administratively, or operationally obligated to retain for security or regulatory compliance.
AI Chat Assistant
Our website includes an AI chat assistant. The messages you type are processed by an AI model to answer your questions. If you choose to share your name, email, phone number or what you need, we use them to have our team follow up with you. Chat conversations are stored for 24 hours and then deleted automatically. Contact details you share in the chat are kept so we can follow up, until you ask us to delete them. The assistant runs on Amazon Web Services. We do not sell your information. Please don’t share payment card numbers, passwords or health information in the chat. The assistant’s answers are generated automatically; our team confirms details such as pricing before any agreement.
Text messages (SMS)
If you call Tage Labs and we miss your call, we may send you a text message from our business number to follow up on your call, and we may reply to text messages you send us. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to stop receiving messages, or HELP for help. You can also contact us at (816) 337-3375.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Information sharing to subcontractors in support services, such as customer service, is permitted. All other use case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
Phone Calls
When we can’t answer, calls to our business numbers may be handled by an automated system that takes your details or sends you a follow-up text. We do not record calls. If that changes, we will announce it at the start of the call.

If you have questions, feedback, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or how your data is handled, please contact the TageLabs administrative team through our website.
