Introduction

Welcome to TechBlog.dev. Your privacy is important, and this Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit the site, how it is used, and the choices available to you.

Information We Collect

This website does not require visitors to create an account or provide personal information to read articles.

Like most websites, certain technical information may be collected automatically by third-party services such as Google Analytics and Google AdSense when you visit, including:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Device information
  • Pages visited
  • Referring website
  • Date and time of your visit
  • General geographic region derived from your IP address

This information is used to understand website traffic, improve the website, and display and measure advertisements.

Cookies

This website uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

  • Measuring website traffic through Google Analytics.
  • Displaying and measuring advertisements through Google AdSense.
  • Improving website performance and user experience.

Depending on your location, you may be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to manage your cookie preferences.

Most web browsers allow you to control or disable cookies through their settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain website functionality.

Comments

This website includes a custom commenting system.

Comments are stored to allow discussions on articles. When you submit a comment, you may be asked to provide:

  • Your name (or nickname)
  • Your email address
  • Your comment

Your original email address is not retained by this website.

Instead, it is immediately converted into an MD5 hash, which is stored solely for the purpose of retrieving your Gravatar avatar, if one exists. The original email address is discarded after the hash is generated.

The MD5 hash is not used as a security mechanism. It is only used as an identifier for requesting your avatar from the Gravatar service.

Your displayed comment may include:

  • Your chosen name
  • Your comment
  • The date and time of the comment
  • Your Gravatar avatar (if available)

Because the avatar is loaded from Gravatar, the MD5 hash is included in the Gravatar image URL and may be visible to anyone viewing the page source or network requests. Your original email address is never displayed or stored by this website.

Retention Policy for Comments

Comments are retained and may remain publicly accessible unless they are removed by the website owner or upon a valid deletion request, where applicable.

Newsletter

This website offers a newsletter subscription service. If you choose to subscribe, your email address (and any other information you voluntarily provide) will be collected and stored by MailerLite, a third-party email marketing service.

Your email address is used only for sending newsletters, updates, and other communications related to this website.

Your subscriber information is retained until you unsubscribe from the newsletter or request deletion of your information.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in each email. You may also request deletion of your subscriber information by contacting the website owner.

MailerLite processes subscriber information in accordance with its own privacy policy.

This website uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. Google Analytics may collect information through cookies and similar technologies to provide reports about website traffic and visitor interactions.

The information collected helps improve the website, identify popular content, and understand how visitors use the site.

Google may process this information in accordance with its own privacy practices.

This website may also link to other external websites or services. Those websites have their own privacy policies, and this website is not responsible for their content or privacy practices.
