Comments

When visitors leave comments on the website, we collect the data shown in the comments form. We also collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with 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/ (opens in a new tab).

After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, where image uploads are available, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

The cookies described below may be set, depending on which website features are in use. Not every visitor will receive every cookie.

Comment cookies

If you leave a comment on the website, you may opt in to saving 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.

Duration: one year

If you visit the login page, a temporary cookie may be set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Article-editing cookie

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data. It simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited.

Duration: one day

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this website may include embedded content, such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited the other website directly.

Those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content. This can include tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the password reset email.

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.

If user registration is enabled on the website, we also store the personal information that registered users provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except that 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 website, or have left comments, you can request 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.

To make a request, email reachus@askaditya.in.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
