Privacy Policy

Welcome to PrintTechie’s Privacy Policy. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy and want you to feel secure when using our website. In this policy, we explain what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and how we protect it.

Who We Are

Comments

At PrintTechie, we value your opinion and encourage visitors to leave comments on our site. We collect the data shown in the comments form, 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.

Advertisements

Our website displays advertisements from various advertising partners. These partners may use cookies to enhance your ad experience.

Cookies enable the ad server to identify your computer whenever you receive online ads. This identification helps in gathering data about you or other users of your computer.

The collected data helps advertising networks to provide personalized ads, which they consider to be most relevant to your interests.

Please note that this Privacy Policy pertains only to the use of cookies by our website and does not extend to the cookie practices of our advertisers.

Media

We understand that visitors may want to upload images to our website. However, we recommend avoiding images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

At PrintTechie, we use cookies to improve your browsing experience. 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 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.

Embedded Content From Other Websites

At PrintTechie, we may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.) from other websites. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

At PrintTechie, we are committed to protecting your privacy. We do not share your personal data with any third-party unless required by law.

How Long We Retain Your Data

At PrintTechie, we retain your data only for as long as necessary to provide you with our services or as required by law. 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.

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.

Cache Policy

At PrintTechie, we use caching to facilitate a faster response time and better user

experience. By storing a duplicate copy of every web page that is on display, caching makes it possible for our website to load quickly and efficiently, even during peak traffic times.

We understand that our users value their privacy, and we take this responsibility seriously. 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. These files expire on a schedule set by our site administrator, but they may easily be purged by the admin before their natural expiration, if necessary.
