WHO_WE_ARE

This is a free, non-commercial academic tool with no ads and no revenue. The data controller is the operator of this site, reachable at mulkkyul@gmail.com. This site is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Geoffrey Hinton.

WHAT_DATA_AND_WHERE_FROM

We process publicly available bibliographic metadata from the dblp.org computer-science bibliography (CC0 1.0):

The data is not collected from you directly; it comes from the public DBLP dump, rebuilt monthly. We do not collect accounts, emails, or profiles of visitors. Standard web-server logs (IP address, requested URL) are kept briefly for security and debugging.

LEGAL_BASIS

Processing is based on legitimate interest (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)): providing an informational, bibliometric tool over publication records that researchers made public themselves. This notice serves as the public information required by GDPR Art. 14; individually notifying the ~4 million authors in DBLP would be a disproportionate effort (Art. 14(5)(b)).

YOUR_RIGHTS_AND_OPT-OUT

You may request access, rectification, erasure, or object to processing of your record. To have your record excluded from this service, email mulkkyul@gmail.com with your DBLP page link; we will exclude it from the next monthly build. To correct the underlying bibliographic data itself, contact dblp.org, our upstream source. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

RETENTION

The dataset mirrors the current DBLP dump and is replaced at each monthly rebuild; no historical copies of author records are kept beyond the current build.
