What Personal Data We Collect And Why We Collect It
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here:
https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to save your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
We use
Cloudflare Web analytics and
Simple Analytics to view information on website visitors and website performance. Both of them do not collect any visitor’s data.
The reasoning behind using two services is to have some accurate metrics (
considering numerous users block all the trackers, so it’s tough for us to know how many readers visit us, and if we should continue our work).
Both the services provide metrics like page views, visitor stats, region, device type, browser, OS, referral source, and more without tracking the users. It does not use any client-side state, like cookies or localStorage, to track users. Furthermore, they do not “fingerprint” individuals via their IP address, User Agent string, or any other data to display analytics.
Who we share your data with
Absolutely no one. Not even any advertiser (considering that this website is already advertisement-free).
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is, so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
How we protect your data
For starters, we utilize an
SSL certificate to secure connection to our website. We make sure that no content on our site is being manipulated by a middleman (and you’re being securely connected to our website).
We enforce common security measures to prevent our website from getting compromised. Not to forget, we utilize
Cloudflare to secure our web application.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
GDPR Compliance
The
General Data Protection Regulation (
GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 is a
regulation in
EU law on
data protection and privacy for all individuals within the
European Union (EU) and the
European Economic Area (EEA). It also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU and EEA. The GDPR aims primarily to give control to citizens and residents over their personal data and to simplify the regulatory environment for
international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.
We do not collect/store users data directly. So, to follow the GDPR law, we make sure that the 3rd party services that we use (that we mentioned above) to collect certain personal information (IP address, Country, Device) are strictly GDPR compliant.
