This privacy statement offers information about your privacy when using the website on the preetibhandari.com domain.

What Personal Data Do We Collect and Why Do We Collect It?

We collect your name, email address, and website URL when you engage with us through comments, contact forms, newsletter signups, and feedback sections. The purpose of collecting this data is to establish a connection with you. With your consent, we may also send you a Monthly Newsletter regarding the updates from this website; however, you have the option to unsubscribe at any time.

Comments

When readers leave comments on this site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help 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.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on this 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.

We use ‘Light Speed Cache’ in order to facilitate a faster response time and better user experience. Caching potentially stores a duplicate copy of every web page that is on display on this site. All cache files are temporary, and are never accessed by any third party, except as necessary to obtain technical support from the cache plugin vendor. Cache files expire on a schedule set by the site administrator, but may easily be purged by the admin before their natural expiration, if necessary.
