Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

1. Overview

LLMPodium ("we", "us", or "our") provides independent evaluation and comparison of artificial intelligence models. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and applicable privacy laws worldwide.

2. Information We Collect

LLMPodium is designed as a public research and utility resource. We do not require registration or personal account creation to access any of our leaderboards, benchmarks, calculators, or datasets.

  • Usage Telemetry: Anonymized metrics such as browser type, referring URL, visited pages, language preference, and device screen size.
  • Local Preferences: Model comparison selections, active table filters, and theme choices (light/dark mode) stored exclusively in your browser's localStorage.
  • Communication: Inquiries, evaluation requests, or feedback sent voluntarily via our contact email.

3. Analytics and Performance Tools

We use privacy-oriented analytics services to measure traffic, identify broken links, and optimize device compatibility:

  • Rybbit Analytics: Self-hosted, cookieless analytics running on aggregate telemetry without personally identifiable information (PII).
  • Google Analytics (GA4): Aggregated user traffic metrics. IP addresses are masked by default.
  • Microsoft Clarity: Diagnostic behavioral telemetry (scroll depth, navigation flow) to identify interface bugs and dead clicks. No keystrokes or sensitive input data are recorded.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

We utilize browser local storage strictly for functional application state:

  • llmpodium-theme: Remembers light or dark mode preference.
  • llmpodium_compare_models: Maintains your active side-by-side model comparison queue.

5. Your Rights Under GDPR / CCPA

You have the right to access, rectify, or erase any personal communication records held by LLMPodium, as well as the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority.
