Welcome to ComparingAnything.com! We respect your privacy and are committed to safeguarding your information. Here’s a clear and concise overview of our privacy practices:
Who We Are
Our website address is: https://www.comparinganything.com.
Comments
When you leave a comment on our site, we collect information from the comment form, your IP address, and your browser user agent string to help us detect and prevent spam.
Additionally, we may create an anonymized string (a hash) from your email address and provide it to the Gravatar service to check if you have a Gravatar profile. Your profile picture, if approved, will be visible to the public when you comment.
Media
If you upload images to our website, please ensure they don’t contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS) as other visitors may download and extract this information.
Cookies
When you leave a comment, you can opt-in to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies make it convenient for you to comment again without re-entering your details, and they will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies; it contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
Logging in will also set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you choose “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks, but logging out will remove the login cookies.
When you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser, containing no personal data, and expires after 1 day.
Embedded Content
Our articles may contain embedded content like videos, images, or articles from other websites. This embedded content behaves the same way as if you visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with their content.
Data Sharing
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
Data Retention
Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely to facilitate automatic approval of follow-up comments and prevent moderation delays.
For registered users, we store personal information provided in user profiles. You can access, edit, or delete your personal information at any time, except for your username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators also have access to this information.
Your Rights
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data, including any provided data. You can also request the deletion of your personal data, excluding data we are legally obliged to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Data Handling
Visitor comments may be checked for spam using automated detection services.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to track website usage. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect data, including your IP address, which is transmitted to and stored by Google in the United States. Google uses this data for website analysis, reporting, and other related services. Google may share this data with third parties as required by law or for processing on Google’s behalf. By using our website, you consent to Google’s data processing as detailed in Google’s Privacy Policy. You can opt-out of Google Analytics by installing a browser add-on.
