Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 2024
Our website address is: https://www.strongmetal.in

At Strongmetal, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect and prevent spam.

We may create an anonymized string (hash) from your email address to check if you are using the Gravatar service. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if linked with Gravatar) becomes publicly visible alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, ensure they do not include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site may download and extract location data from images posted online.

Cookies & Contact Forms

  • If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for convenience so you don’t need to re-enter details for future comments. These cookies last for one year.
  • If you log in to our site (for registered users), we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is removed once you close your browser.
  • Upon login, we create cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for 2 days; display preference cookies last for 1 year. If you select “Remember Me”, login persists for 2 weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
  • Editing or publishing an article creates an additional cookie in your browser, storing the post ID. It expires in 1 day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Our site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). This content behaves as though you visited the source website directly. Such websites may collect your data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions—especially if you have an account with them and are logged in.

Data Retention

  • Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to help recognize and approve future comments automatically.
  • Registered users can view, edit, or delete their personal details anytime (except usernames). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you may request:

  • An exported file of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Erasure of personal data we hold about you, except for data retained for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments may be scanned using an automated spam detection service.
