This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you visit (https://shatanjaysudha.com/). We are committed to safeguarding your privacy and handling your data transparently and responsibly.
1. Media
If you upload images to the website (such as in comments or forms), please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location information from these images.
2. Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user agent string to help detect spam. An anonymized string (also called a hash) may be created from your email address and provided to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible to the public alongside your comment.
3. Cookies
If you leave a comment, 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 leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
We also use cookies to track analytics, enhance user experience, and serve personalized advertisements through third-party services like Google Analytics and Google AdSense.
4. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.) from other websites. Embedded content behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content — including tracking your interaction if you are logged in to that website.
5. Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell or trade your personal information. However, we may share data with:
- Service providers (like Google Analytics, AdSense) for performance, ads, or analytics
- Security and spam detection tools (e.g., Akismet, reCAPTCHA)
- Email newsletter tools (if you subscribe)
- Legal or regulatory bodies, if required by law
6. 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.
7. 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 obligated to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
8. Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Some data may be sent to external services such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or newsletter tools, which may be located outside your home country. These services follow their own privacy rules in line with global standards like GDPR.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the site after changes signifies your acceptance of the revised policy.
