Your Privacy Choices on DeepSeek USA

This Privacy Choices page explains the options available to visitors of DeepSeek-USA.ai (“DeepSeek USA,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Site”) for managing cookies, advertising choices, analytics choices, contact form information, and certain privacy requests.

DeepSeek USA is an independent informational website created for readers in the United States. We use Google AdSense, Google Analytics, Cloudflare, a contact form, hosting services, security tools, and similar technologies to operate, secure, measure, improve, and support the Site.

This page should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Terms of Service, Disclaimer, and Security page.

Important: This Page Covers DeepSeek USA Only

This Privacy Choices page applies only to this independent website. It does not apply to DeepSeek’s official app, DeepSeek Web, DeepSeek API platform, official accounts, prompts, uploaded files, chat history, API keys, billing, app telemetry, support requests, or official DeepSeek services.

DeepSeek USA is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, operated by, or connected to DeepSeek, Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Co., Ltd., or any official DeepSeek product, service, app, model, API, account system, trademark owner, or related entity.

We cannot access, delete, export, correct, or manage information held by official DeepSeek services. For official DeepSeek account, billing, API, app, privacy, or support requests, use DeepSeek’s official websites, apps, documentation, and support channels.

Quick Privacy Controls

You can use the following options to manage certain privacy choices related to this Site:

Some choices may depend on your browser, device, location, Google account settings, consent settings, ad settings, and the third-party tools enabled on the Site.

Cookies and Browser Controls

This Site may use cookies and similar technologies for functionality, security, analytics, performance measurement, advertising, spam prevention, traffic management, and user experience.

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to delete cookies, block new cookies, block third-party cookies, clear site data, or receive alerts when cookies are being used.

Blocking or deleting cookies may affect site functionality, security checks, analytics, advertising, preferences, or performance. Some third-party services may still receive limited technical information when their scripts, security tools, or resources load.

Google AdSense and Personalized Advertising Choices

DeepSeek USA may display advertisements, including ads served by Google AdSense or other third-party advertising services. Advertising helps support the Site and keeps the content free to read.

Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this Site or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You can manage Google personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices.

Changing ad settings may not remove all advertising. You may still see ads, but they may be less personalized. Some choices may apply only to a specific browser, device, account, or cookie state.

Google Analytics Choices

We use Google Analytics and may use similar analytics or performance measurement tools to understand how visitors use the Site, measure content performance, identify technical issues, and improve user experience.

Google Analytics may process information such as pages viewed, referral sources, browser type, device information, approximate location, IP address, visit time, cookie identifiers, and on-site activity. We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, passwords, payment details, government identifiers, or other directly identifying personal information to Google Analytics.

You can opt out of Google Analytics in supported browsers by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. You can also use browser settings, privacy extensions, or device controls to limit certain analytics activity.

Cloudflare and Security Technologies

We use Cloudflare for security, content delivery, caching, performance optimization, traffic management, bot mitigation, and protection against malicious or abusive traffic.

Cloudflare may process technical information such as IP address, request data, browser information, device information, security signals, performance data, and similar information to provide its services. Depending on the Cloudflare features enabled, Cloudflare may set or use cookies or similar technologies for security, bot detection, challenge pages, traffic management, or related protective functions.

Because some Cloudflare technologies are used to protect and operate the Site, disabling them may not be possible through this Site without affecting access, security, or performance.

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

We do not sell personal information for money. However, depending on where you live, the use of advertising cookies, analytics cookies, device identifiers, advertising identifiers, or similar technologies may be considered a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising activity under applicable privacy laws.

You may request that DeepSeek USA stop selling or sharing personal information, where applicable, by emailing us at [email protected] with the subject line “Privacy Choices Request.”

Please include enough information for us to understand and process your request, such as the email address you used to contact us, the nature of your request, and whether your request relates to contact form information, cookies, advertising, analytics, or another privacy choice.

We may not be able to identify you from analytics, advertising, Cloudflare, server log, or cookie data alone. Some choices may need to be managed through your browser, device, Google account, Google Ads Settings, Google Analytics opt-out tools, or industry opt-out tools.

Global Privacy Control and Browser Signals

Some browsers or extensions may send privacy preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) or similar browser-based signals.

Where required by applicable law and where technically feasible, we will treat recognized opt-out preference signals as requests to opt out of certain sale, sharing, or targeted advertising activities for that browser or device.

Because browser signals can depend on your browser, device, extension, region, and technical configuration, you may also contact us directly at [email protected] if you want to submit a privacy request related to information you directly provided to this Site.

U.S. State Privacy Requests

Depending on your U.S. state of residence and the laws that apply, you may have certain privacy rights, such as the right to know, access, correct, delete, or opt out of certain sale, sharing, targeted advertising, or profiling activities.

These rights may not apply in every situation, and some laws apply only to certain businesses or types of data. However, you may still contact us with a privacy request related to information you directly provided to DeepSeek USA.

To submit a U.S. state privacy request, email [email protected] with the subject line “Privacy Choices Request.” We may need to verify your request before responding. We may also decline or limit requests when allowed by law, when we cannot verify the request, when the request relates to data we do not control, or when an exception applies.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights that apply to you. However, some site features, security controls, analytics functions, or advertising experiences may depend on cookies or similar technologies.

California Privacy Choices

If you are a California resident, you may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, including the right to know, delete, correct, opt out of sale or sharing, and limit certain uses of sensitive personal information, subject to legal requirements and exceptions.

DeepSeek USA does not sell personal information for money. However, our use of Google AdSense, Google Analytics, cookies, advertising identifiers, analytics identifiers, and similar technologies may be considered “sharing” or targeted advertising under some privacy laws.

California residents may submit privacy requests by contacting us at [email protected]. Please use the subject line “California Privacy Request” and describe the request you want to make.

We may need to verify your request. We cannot process requests for official DeepSeek accounts, prompts, uploaded files, API usage, billing records, support tickets, or official DeepSeek data because we do not operate official DeepSeek services.

Visitors from the EEA, United Kingdom, or Switzerland

Although this Site is primarily intended for readers in the United States, visitors from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland may have additional privacy rights under applicable data protection laws.

Where required by applicable law, we will seek legally valid consent for the use of certain cookies or local storage and for the collection, sharing, and use of personal data for personalized advertising. Where consent tools are available, you may be able to accept, reject, withdraw, or modify consent choices through those tools.

You may also use browser settings, device settings, Google Ads Settings, Google Analytics opt-out tools, and industry opt-out tools to manage certain cookies, analytics, and advertising technologies.

To make a privacy request related to information you directly provided to this Site, contact us at [email protected].

Contact Form Information

If you contact us through the contact form or by email, we may receive information such as your name, email address, subject, message content, page URL, correction details, source links, and any other information you choose to include.

You may request access, correction, deletion, or clarification regarding information you directly provided to us through the contact form or email, subject to legal, security, technical, and operational limits.

Do not send passwords, API keys, payment details, government identifiers, medical records, confidential business information, private source code, client data, regulated data, official DeepSeek account information, or other sensitive information through our contact form or email.

Sensitive Personal Information

DeepSeek USA does not ask users to send sensitive personal information through this Site. Please do not submit sensitive personal information through our contact form, email, search features, or other ordinary website features.

If you send sensitive information to us anyway, we may use it only as reasonably necessary to review your message, respond when appropriate, protect the Site, maintain records, comply with legal obligations, or delete it when feasible.

What We Cannot Do

DeepSeek USA cannot process privacy requests for information controlled by official DeepSeek services or third-party websites. This includes official DeepSeek accounts, prompts, uploaded files, conversations, API keys, API usage, billing records, subscriptions, app telemetry, or support tickets.

We also may not be able to identify or delete data that is not reasonably linked to you, such as aggregated analytics reports, de-identified data, cached security logs, or cookie-based information controlled by third-party services.

For official DeepSeek data, contact DeepSeek through its official privacy, support, or account channels. For Google advertising or analytics choices, use Google’s privacy and opt-out tools where available.

How to Submit a Privacy Request

To submit a privacy request to DeepSeek USA, email us at [email protected].

Please include:

  • Your name, if you want to provide it
  • The email address you used to contact us or submit information
  • The type of request you are making, such as access, correction, deletion, opt-out, or clarification
  • The page URL or contact form message involved, if relevant

We may ask for additional information to verify your request. Please do not send sensitive documents, passwords, API keys, account credentials, payment details, government IDs, medical records, private files, or official DeepSeek account information.

Authorized Agents

If applicable law allows you to use an authorized agent to submit a privacy request, we may request proof that the agent is authorized to act on your behalf. We may also ask you to verify your identity directly before completing certain requests.

Response Timing

We aim to review privacy requests within a reasonable time. Response timing may depend on the nature of the request, verification needs, legal requirements, technical feasibility, and whether the request relates to information we actually control.

If your request relates to official DeepSeek services, Google services, Cloudflare, advertisers, app stores, or other third-party services, you may need to contact those providers directly.

We may update this Privacy Choices page from time to time to reflect changes in our Site, privacy tools, advertising partners, analytics services, Cloudflare configuration, legal requirements, or operating practices.
