Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 5, 2026
This policy explains what information The Robotic Life (“we,” “us”) collects when you visit theroboticlife.com, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep it short and plain on purpose.
Who we are
The Robotic Life is a humanoid robotics research and data website based in Brookfield, Wisconsin, run by Lars Talbert. Our website address is https://theroboticlife.com.
What we collect
- Information you give us. When you sign up for our newsletter, download a report (such as the Humanoid Robotics Funding Report), or contact us, we collect your email address and anything else you choose to enter, such as your name or message.
- Facebook and Instagram lead forms. If you request a report through one of our ads on Facebook or Instagram, Meta shares the information you submit in that form (such as your name and email address) with us.
- Usage information. Like most websites, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site: pages viewed, time on page, the general region you’re visiting from, your device and browser type, and how you found us. This information is collected through cookies and is reported to us in aggregate.
We don’t collect payment information, and we don’t knowingly collect sensitive personal information.
How we use it
- To send you the newsletter or report you asked for.
- To reply to your messages.
- To understand which content is useful so we can improve the site.
- To measure how well our ads perform.
We don’t sell your personal information, and we don’t share your email address with other companies for their own marketing.
Who we share it with
We use a small number of service providers to run the site. They handle your information only to provide their service to us:
- Beehiiv, to manage our email list and send the newsletter.
- Google (Google Analytics and Site Kit), for site analytics.
- Meta (Facebook and Instagram), for ads and lead forms.
- Bluehost, our web host, which stores the site and form submissions on its servers.
We may also disclose information if required by law.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. We use them for analytics (Google Analytics) and to keep the site working
