Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 12, 2026

1. Who I am

This website, maxkopptech.com (the “Site”), is the personal website of Max Kopp (“I,” “me,” or “the site operator”).

The Site is for general information about my research, education, projects, and related activities. It is not a store and does not sell products.

You can reach me about this policy or your personal information at mkopp@maxkopptech.com.

2. Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how personal information is collected, used, shared, and protected when you visit the Site, submit a form, subscribe to updates, use the chat widget, or schedule a meeting through the widget on the Contact page.

It applies only to this website. It does not apply to thevitasensor.com, koppfoundation.org, or other websites I may link to. Those sites have (or will have) their own notices.

This website does not collect, receive, or process glucose readings or other device-generated health or laboratory measurements. Descriptions of VitaSensor or other research on the Site are informational only.

3. Information I collect

Information you provide

I collect information you choose to send through forms and similar tools on the Site:

  • Homepage contact form (Contact Form 7). Your name and email address (required) and, if you choose to provide it, your message.
  • Contact page form (Contact Form 7). Your name and email address (required); a subject you select from the list (Research, Speaking, Media, Mentorship, Partnership, or Other); and, if you choose to provide it, your message.
  • Sign-up forms on the Contact, Newsletter, and Blog pages (Elementor). Your email address (required) and, if you choose to provide it, your name. These forms are presented as a “Sign Up” / “Subscribe & Follow Along” request.

Please do not include Social Security numbers, payment card details, medical record numbers, or other highly sensitive information in a message. If a message happens to include health-related details, I will use them only to respond to you, as described below.

If you use the meeting scheduler on the Contact page, Calendly collects the information needed to book the meeting (typically your name, email address, and any notes you provide). That information is also processed by Calendly under its own privacy policy.

If you use the Tidio chat widget that loads on the Site, Tidio collects the information you type into the chat and technical data needed to operate the widget, under Tidio’s own privacy policy.

The Site also displays mkopp@maxkopptech.com as the public contact address. The Speaking page also lists speaking@maxkopptech.com, and the Media page lists press@maxkopptech.com. If you email those addresses, I will use the content of your message to respond. Privacy and data-rights requests should be sent to mkopp@maxkopptech.com.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, the hosting provider and ordinary server or security tools may automatically record:

  • Your Internet Protocol (IP) address
  • Browser type and version, device type, and general technical information
  • Date and time of the visit, pages viewed, and the referring URL
  • Standard server and security logs

Form submissions processed in WordPress typically include the submission time, the page from which the form was sent, and similar technical metadata.

Cookies and similar technologies

A simple visit to public pages of the Site does not currently set first-party cookies in the HTTP response. If someone logs in to the WordPress administration area (site operators only), WordPress may set essential cookies needed to keep them signed in and to check that the browser accepts cookies.

Third-party scripts that load on the Site can set their own cookies and collect usage data:

  • Tidio (live chat) is loaded on pages of the Site from code.tidio.co.
  • Calendly (meeting scheduler) is loaded on the Contact page from assets.calendly.com and calendly.com.
  • Google Fonts style sheets (Roboto, Roboto Slab, Outfit, and on some pages Poppins) are loaded from fonts.googleapis.com. This is a third-party network request. It discloses your IP address and browser information to Google. It is not, by itself, evidence that Google sets an advertising cookie on this Site.

I do not currently run a configured analytics property, tag manager, advertising pixel, or reCAPTCHA on the public pages of the Site. If I later enable analytics or other non-essential cookies, I will update this policy and, where required, request additional consent.

4. How I use information

I use the information described above to:

  • Respond to inquiries and provide the information you request
  • Send updates if you sign up for them (you may unsubscribe at any time)
  • Schedule and conduct meetings you request
  • Operate the chat widget if you choose to use it
  • Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site, including diagnosing technical problems and preventing spam, fraud, and abuse
  • Comply with law and enforce the Terms of Use

I do not use Site form, chat, or scheduling data to provide medical advice, to diagnose or treat any condition, or to make clinical or eligibility decisions about you.

5. Legal bases and consent

United States. I collect and use personal information as described in this policy and, for optional updates and similar communications, based on your request or consent when you submit the form.

European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and similar jurisdictions (GDPR-style note). If you visit the Site from these regions, I process personal information only when I have a legal basis, which may include:

  • Consent, for optional update sign-ups and for any non-essential cookies or third-party widgets that require it (for example, when you choose to use the Calendly scheduler or the Tidio chat)
  • Legitimate interests, such as answering a message you sent, securing the Site, and keeping basic server logs, where those interests are not overridden by your rights
  • Legal obligation, if I must retain or disclose information to comply with law

You may withdraw consent at any time by emailing mkopp@maxkopptech.com or using an unsubscribe link in an update email, if one is provided. Withdrawal does not affect processing already carried out.

6. How long I keep information

  • Form submissions are processed on the WordPress site (Contact Form 7 and Elementor forms) and are typically emailed to me so I can reply. I keep them as long as needed to respond, to maintain a reasonable record of the inquiry, and to meet legal or security requirements, and then I delete or de-identify them.
  • Sign-up / update addresses are kept until you unsubscribe or ask me to delete them, or until I stop sending that type of update.
  • Calendly retains scheduling data according to Calendly’s retention practices.
  • Tidio retains chat data according to Tidio’s retention practices.
  • Server and security logs are kept for a limited period needed for security, debugging, and operations.

You may ask me to delete your information as described in “Your rights” below.

7. How I share information (I do not sell it)

I do not sell your personal information, and I do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

I may disclose information to service providers who help operate the Site, only as needed for their services:

  • Bluehost / Newfold Digital — website hosting and related infrastructure. They process IP addresses and other technical data as the hosting provider. (The Site’s HTTP responses include a Bluehost shared-hosting header.)
  • Email delivery — form notifications and ordinary email replies.
  • Tidio — the chat widget loaded on the Site. See Tidio’s Privacy Policy.
  • Calendly — if you use the meeting widget on the Contact page. See Calendly’s Privacy Notice.
  • Google — when your browser loads Google Fonts from Google’s servers. See Google’s Privacy Policy.
  • WordPress, Elementor, Contact Form 7, and related plugins used to publish content, manage forms, and operate the Site. These run on the hosting server and are not used to sell your data.

If you follow outbound links (for example, my LinkedIn profile, or the VitaSensor or Kopp Foundation sites), those services receive information according to their own policies.

I may also disclose information if required by law, to protect the rights, safety, or property of the site operator or others, or in connection with a transfer of the Site, subject to appropriate safeguards.

8. Cookies

As noted above, public pages of the Site do not currently set first-party cookies in the HTTP response. Essential cookies may be used for administration login. Tidio (site-wide) and Calendly (Contact page) may use third-party cookies. Google Fonts is loaded from Google as a third-party request.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking third-party cookies or scripts may affect chat, scheduling, or typography.

A short cookie notice is also provided for the Site banner. See the Cookie notice text drafted with this policy.

9. Your rights

Access and deletion (all visitors)

You may request access to the personal information I hold about you, a correction, or deletion by emailing mkopp@maxkopptech.com. I will take reasonable steps to verify your request and will respond within a reasonable time. You may also unsubscribe from updates at any time.

I may decline a request where an exception applies (for example, if I must keep a record to comply with law or to resolve a dispute).

California (CCPA/CPRA-style note)

If you are a California resident, you may have the right to:

  • Know the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected about you, the sources, the purposes, and the categories of third parties with whom it is disclosed
  • Request deletion or correction of personal information
  • Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights

I do not sell personal information and I do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise the rights above, email mkopp@maxkopptech.com. You may use an authorized agent as permitted by law. I will describe any verification steps in my reply.

Similar rights may apply under the laws of other U.S. states. The same email address can be used for those requests.

European Economic Area and United Kingdom (GDPR-style note)

If the GDPR or UK GDPR applies to you, you may also have the right to access, rectify, erase, or restrict processing of your personal information; to object to processing based on legitimate interests; to data portability; and to withdraw consent. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. To exercise these rights with me, email mkopp@maxkopptech.com.

10. Children (COPPA)

The Site is a personal professional and research site. It is intended for researchers, students in higher education, journalists, and other general visitors. It is not directed to children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided me information, please email mkopp@maxkopptech.com and I will delete it.

11. Health and research information

This website does not process glucose data or other device-generated health measurements. The forms do not ask for medical records or clinical data. VitaSensor is described on the Site as a laboratory-stage research prototype; this website is not connected to that prototype for data collection.

If you voluntarily include health-related information in a message, I will treat it as confidential, use it only to respond to your inquiry, and not use it for marketing.

12. Security

I use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information, including HTTPS for the Site and access controls on the WordPress administration area. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and I cannot guarantee absolute security.

13. International visitors

The Site is hosted in the United States. If you access it from another country, your information will be processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

14. Changes to this policy

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The effective date at the top will be revised, and the updated policy will be posted on this page. If changes are material, I will take additional reasonable steps to notify you (for example, a notice on the Site or an email if I have your address).
