Our Do's and Don'ts of Private Data Collection 

Comments

Every comment made by a user on the website is scrutinized for the following metrics:

  1. Comment content; to extract feedback and analyze the comment.
  2. User's IP address; to detect location
  3. Browser user-agent; to detect spambots

Every user's email address leaves anonymized strings called hash which our website shares with the third-party service Gravatar. The service uses this information solely to detect if the email address is still active. Gravatar's privacy policy can be found at https://automattic.com/privacy/.

Once approved, all content of your comment and your profile picture will be visible to other users that access the website.

Multimedia

We advise all users against uploading a special type of image that comes in the "EXIF GPS" format. These images are embedded with location and can be exploited by black hat visitors and compromise your location privacy.

Embedded Content

Many blog posts on our website contain embedded content, including videos, images, and articles from third-party websites. This embedded content acts on the metrics and data collection policies of third-party websites.

Security of Data

Our website incorporates all forms of modern security protocols to protect every user's privacy. While we employ multiple layers of security features to shield user data against online attacks, phishing, malicious intrusion, and data theft, some advanced vulnerabilities still persist. We do not warrant any guarantee for thorough data security and immunity against breaches. Your user data is still as vulnerable as the user data on any other website.

User Rights Over Personal Data

In case a user wants a list of personal information pieces stored by the website, they can request a complete file. We will send you an exported file including all data pieces our company holds in its database and servers. A user can also request the removal of some personal information if they deem it necessary. However, we hold the right to only oblige to such requests to the extent our administrative, legal, and security needs are not compromised.

Role of Service Providers

Our service providers are third-party entities and companies that our website works with. These providers are essential for conducting multiple important tasks for the efficient working of our website. Moreover, they will also have access to different points of user data as needed for the completion of their responsibilities. Any wrongdoing committed by these third parties will be the sole responsibility of those parties and not of our company. We also use external CI/CD tools that help us automate our website's development needs.

This is a regulated institution formed for the secure running of all major card companies, including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover.
