Collection and Use of Personal Information

We collect certain personal information to enhance user experience. Below are the details:

Comments: When users leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, the user’s IP address, and the browser user agent string to help detect spam.

We use the Akismet Anti-Spam service, which may collect the commenter’s IP address, user agent, referrer, and site URL to filter spam. You can review Akismet’s Privacy Policy for more details.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to verify whether you are using it. The Gravatar service Privacy Policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.

We also use Google reCAPTCHA to protect the site from spam comments and form submissions. Please review Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms for more information.

Media: If you upload images to the website, ensure that they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from uploaded images.

Contact Forms: Our contact forms typically collect your name, email address, IP address, and message.

Cookies: If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year.

If you have an account and log in, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login details and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser, containing no personal data but storing the post ID of the edited article. This cookie expires after one day.

Analytics: We use Google Analytics to monitor website performance. You can review Google Analytics’ Privacy Policy here: Google Analytics Privacy Policy.

Who We Share Your Data With: We may share your data with third-party services such as Automattic for site statistics and email subscriptions, Google for analytics and advertisements, and security plugins such as WordFence and Rishi Themes.

This site is scanned by Sucuri’s SiteCheck to detect malware and vulnerabilities. We do not transmit personal information to Sucuri, but it may discover publicly posted data. Security logs are stored for 30 days.

Additionally, this site is part of a network that protects against Distributed Brute Force attacks. To enable this protection, the IP addresses of visitors attempting to log in are shared with Rishi Themes. Please refer to Rishi Themes’ Privacy Policy for more details.

Data Retention: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.

If you register on our website, we store your provided personal information in your user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for changing their username). Website administrators can also access and modify this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data: If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you may request an exported file of your personal data. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. However, we may be required to retain certain data for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Contact Information: For any inquiries, please contact us via email: Pijushbalaworker@gmail.com

How We Protect Your Data: We employ strong security measures and multi-factor authentication to safeguard your data.

Data Breach Procedure: In case of a data breach, we will notify affected users within 48 hours.
