What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
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. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
When you submit an inquiry through a contact form or via email/phone regarding advertising or general questions, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and any message content you provide. We retain contact form submissions for up to 12 months for customer service and advertisement onboarding purposes, but we do not use the information submitted through them for unsolicited marketing.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Analytics
We use standard web analytics (such as Google Analytics and hosting log files) to understand site traffic and usage patterns. These tools log anonymous user behavior, including IP addresses, browser types, device types, and pages visited. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).
Who we share your data with
By default, Finsiddhi does not share, sell, or rent your personal data to third parties.
However, to run our website and serve advertisements, we may share non-personally identifiable technical data with:
- Google AdSense / Third-Party Ad Networks: To serve relevant ads based on user visits (using cookies like the DART cookie).
- Security & Anti-Spam Services: Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (e.g., Akismet).
How long we retain your data
- Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
- Registered Users: For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
- Contact & Ad Inquiries: Retained for up to 12 months for operational communication.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us.
You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@finsiddhi.com.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
