What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

We collect data to provide a better experience, improve our services, and comply with applicable laws. The types of data we collect include:

1. Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

2. Media

If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

3. Contact Forms

When you contact us through our forms, we collect your name, email address, and message content. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiries and improve our service.
We do not use this data for marketing without your explicit consent.

4. Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience — so you don’t have to fill them again next time. These cookies last for one year.
We also use cookies for:

  • Site analytics (e.g., Google Analytics)

  • Advertisement optimization (e.g., Google AdSense)

  • Saving user preferences and improving user experience

You can disable cookies through your browser settings at any time.

5. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on BloggyBasket may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, ads).
Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their content.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand visitor behavior and improve site performance.
Google Analytics collects anonymized data such as IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and session duration.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell or trade your personal information.
However, we may share data with:

  • Trusted third-party service providers (such as hosting, analytics, and advertising partners) to help us operate and improve the site

  • Law enforcement authorities, if required by applicable laws or regulations

  • Google AdSense and other advertising networks to serve personalized ads in compliance with Google’s Publisher Policies

All shared data is handled securely and under strict confidentiality agreements.

  • Contact form submissions: Retained for up to 12 months for customer service purposes.

  • Analytics records: Typically retained for 26 months or as determined by Google’s default settings.

  • Cookies: Depending on type, may remain active for up to one year.

If you request deletion of your data, we will remove it unless retention is required by law.
