Website Address:
Our primary platform is located at https://www.namanmodi.com/.
Comments:
When engaging on our platform, especially through comments, we gather data evident in the comment structure. This includes the commenter’s IP address and the browser’s user agent string, primarily to counteract spam.
Should you use Gravatar, an anonymized string (hash) from your email might be sent to check for its usage. You can review the Gravatar’s privacy policy here. Once your comment receives approval, your Gravatar profile picture becomes publicly visible in relation to your comment.
Media:
For those uploading images, it’s advisable not to embed images with location specifics (EXIF GPS) as site visitors can extract this location data.
Cookies:
If you engage through comments, you have the option to save your credentials in cookies, ensuring you don’t repetitively input them. These cookies persist for a year.
Accessing the login page sets a temporary cookie to gauge browser cookie acceptance, with no stored personal data. This cookie disappears upon browser closure.
Logging in activates multiple cookies that record your login info and display preferences. Login cookies remain for 48 hours, while screen choices persist for a year. Opting for “Remember Me” extends login duration to two weeks, which ends once you log out.
Editing or publishing articles triggers another cookie in your browser, containing the article’s post ID, expiring in 24 hours.
Embedded Content:
Certain articles may feature embedded content (like images, videos, articles). Such content from third-party sites behaves as if you’ve visited these sites directly.
These external sites might gather data, use cookies, embed extra third-party tracking, and monitor interaction with the embedded content, especially if you’re logged into that site.
Data Sharing:
Should you initiate a password reset, the reset email will carry your IP address.
Data Retention:
Comments and their related metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows automatic recognition and approval of subsequent comments, bypassing moderation.
Registered users have their profile information stored. While users can view, edit, or erase their personal details (username excluded), website administrators can also access and modify this information.
Your Data Rights:
For those with an account or those who’ve commented, you can request an exported data file of the personal information we retain. You also reserve the right to ask for the erasure of personal data, barring data we’re mandated to maintain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.
Data Transfers:
To ensure the platform’s integrity, comments undergo an automated spam detection process.
