Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 02/07/2025

At https://dradarshtripathi.com (“we,” “us,” or “our”), your privacy is paramount. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information in compliance with global regulations (GDPR, CCPA) and Google’s guidelines. By using our website, you consent to these practices.

1. Information We Collect

(a) Comments

When you leave comments:

  • We collect data entered in the comments form (name, email, website).

  • Your IP address and browser user agent are recorded for spam detection.

  • An anonymized hash of your email may be sent to Gravatar to display your profile picture. Gravatar’s privacy policy applies. Once approved, your comment and profile picture are publicly visible.

(b) Media Uploads

  • Avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can extract location details from website images.

(c) Cookies

  • Comment cookies: If you opt-in, cookies save your name/email/website for 1 year, avoiding re-entry.

  • Login cookies: Temporary cookies check browser cookie support (deleted on browser close). Login cookies persist 2 days; screen options cookies last 1 year. “Remember Me” extends login to 2 weeks.

  • Editing cookies: A cookie saves the post ID of recently edited articles (expires in 1 day).

(d) Embedded Content

Articles may include embedded content (videos, images, etc.). These third-party services:

  • Collect data about you.

  • Use cookies and tracking.

  • Monitor interactions if you’re logged into their websites.

2. Data Sharing & Disclosure

We only share data when essential:

  • Spam detection: Comments are processed by automated spam services.

  • Password resets: Your IP address is included in reset emails.

  • Legal obligations: Data may be disclosed if required by law.

3. Data Retention

  • Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to auto-approve follow-up comments.

5. Data Transfers

Visitor comments are processed by automated spam detection services that may operate globally. By commenting, you acknowledge potential international data transfer.

6. Security Measures

We implement HTTPS encryption, regular malware scans, and strict access controls to protect your data. Despite this, no digital transmission is 100% secure—we cannot guarantee absolute security.
