At hellovenky.com, accessible from https://hellovenky.com, protecting the privacy of our visitors is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect and how we use it.
Information we collect
Contact form: When you send us a message through our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message so we can respond to you. We do not share this information with third parties for marketing purposes.
Comments: When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service; the Gravatar privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible to the public alongside your comment.
Analytics: We use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our site. These tools may collect anonymized information such as pages visited, time spent on the site, and device or browser type.
Cookies
We use cookies to improve your browsing experience:
- If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies so you don’t have to re-enter them next time. These cookies last for one year.
- If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie checks whether your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
- When you log in, cookies save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days (two weeks if you select “Remember Me”); screen options cookies last for a year.
- Affiliate cookies: When you click an affiliate link on this site and make a purchase, the merchant may set cookies on your device to track the referral and credit us with a commission. These cookies are set by the merchant, not by us, and are governed by the merchant’s own privacy policy.
Affiliate links and advertising
hellovenky.com participates in affiliate programs. Some links on this site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. Clicking an affiliate link may take you to a third-party merchant’s website, which operates under its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit. Please also see our Affiliate Disclosure page.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos or images). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you had visited the other website directly. Those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. Contact form submissions are kept only as long as needed to handle your enquiry. For registered users (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profile; users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except their username).
Your rights over your data
You can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including data you have provided to us, and you can request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. To make such a request, contact us through our Contact page.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
