Privacy and Image Usage Policy for 81018.com
Last Updated: June 17, 2025

Introduction
81018.com, created by Bruce E. Camber, is an educational platform dedicated to exploring a hyper-rational cosmological model through 202 base-2 notations, octahedral geometries, and mathematical constants (π, e, √2, φ). Our mission is to foster open collaboration and document scholarly insights inspiring this model. This Privacy and Image Usage Policy outlines how we handle personal data, images, and correspondence, ensuring transparency, respect, and compliance with applicable laws (e.g., GDPR, CCPA, U.S. copyright law).

Scope
This policy applies to all content on 81018.com, including text, images, and correspondence, particularly those referencing scholars, researchers, or public figures. We are committed to ethical usage and welcome feedback via https://81018.com/contact/.

Image Usage

  • Purpose: Images (e.g., scholar portraits) are used for non-commercial, educational purposes to document how that scholar has inspired the development of our hyper-rational model through their academic contributions.
  • Sources: Historically, images were sourced from publicly available platforms (e.g. Wikipedia, YouTube, university websites). As of June 2025, we are transitioning to:
    • Images with explicit permission from rights holders.
    • Creative Commons-licensed images (e.g., CC BY-SA 4.0 from Wikimedia Commons).
    • Original or AI-generated visuals disclosed as such.
  • Fair Use: Where applicable, we rely on U.S. fair use principles (17 U.S.C. § 107) for limited, transformative, educational use. However, we prioritize consent and will remove any image upon request.
  • Removal Requests: If you believe your image is used without permission, contact us at https://81018.com/contact/. We will remove it promptly, typically within 48 hours.

Correspondence and Quotes

  • Purpose: Summaries or quotes from correspondence with scholars (e.g., emails, 2015–2025) are included to archive discussions shaping our model.
  • Ethics: We aim to anonymize or summarize exchanges unless permission is granted. Direct quotes are being reviewed for consent as of June 2025.
  • Removal Requests: Contact us at https://81018.com/contact/ to request removal or anonymization of my correspondence, processed within 48 hours.

Personal Data

  • Collection: We collect minimal data (e.g., names, email addresses via contact forms) for communication purposes. No user tracking (e.g., cookies, analytics) is employed beyond WordPress’s default functionality.
  • GDPR Compliance (EU Residents): Under GDPR, you have rights to access, rectify, or erase personal data (e.g., images, quotes). Email https://81018.com/contact/ to exercise these rights.
  • CCPA Compliance (California Residents): You may request disclosure or deletion of personal data. Contact us as above.
  • Storage: Data is stored securely on WordPress servers, with access limited to site administrators (Bruce E. Camber and authorized team members).

Third-Party Links
81018.com links to external sites (e.g., https://www.nist.gov/, https://odsc.com/). We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their policies before sharing data.

Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect legal or ethical changes. Updates will be posted here, with a revised “Last Updated” date. Significant changes will be announced via https://81018.com/home/.
