Data Protection Principles
The website astroforgex.info is fully committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of all its visitors, collecting necessary information such as comments, IP addresses, browser details, and other metadata solely to enhance security, prevent fraudulent activity, and optimize user experience, with strict adherence to internal data protection protocols and applicable legal requirements.
Information Collection
We collect both voluntarily submitted information from visitors, such as comment content and email addresses, and automatically gathered technical metadata including IP addresses, browser versions, operating system types, and timestamps; this data helps identify suspicious activity, improves site performance, and supports the implementation of security measures to safeguard user interactions.
Guidance for Media Uploads
When uploading images or videos, users should ensure that any embedded metadata, including location information, is removed prior to submission, as such data could unintentionally expose private information to other users or third-party services interacting with the content.
Cookies and Persistent Data
Our platform employs cookies to store visitor information such as names, emails, and URLs for one year, temporary cookies verify browser capabilities, login cookies persist for two days, and preference cookies remain active for up to one year. The “Remember Me” feature extends authenticated sessions for two weeks, while logging out removes relevant cookies to ensure session security.
Third-Party Embedded Content
Embedded elements such as videos or social media feeds from third-party websites behave as though the user is visiting the external platform directly, allowing these services to collect information, set cookies, and monitor interactions in accordance with their own privacy policies, independent of our website.
Retention and User Rights
All comments and associated metadata are stored indefinitely to support moderation and administrative purposes. Registered users may access, update, or request deletion of personal data except for non-modifiable identifiers, while administrators retain oversight to maintain data security. Users may request a complete report of their data and request deletion of any non-essential information.
Automated Processing and Security
Comments may be subject to automated analysis for spam prevention, ensuring the integrity and safety of interactions across the site while maintaining the privacy and protection of all users’ data.
