Who we are
Our website address is: https://amritarhoads.com.
Website Visitors
We collect non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request.
We also collect potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments. IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrator of this website.
Cookies
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. Certain actions, such as leaving comments, will set cookies. Any users not wanting to have cookies placed on their browser should disable cookies via their web browser.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Visitors may be asked to provide personally-identifying information to interact with this site in specific ways. In each case, we collect such only the information appropriate for this interaction to take place. We do not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also 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.
Anybody who uses the contact form on this website will be asked to provide their name and email address.
In both cases, visitors can refuse to provide this information. Certain activities may not be accessible without providing this information.
Use and Protection of Personally-Identifying Information
This site will only use personal information collected from this site for the purpose of communication back to individuals who contact us via the site. Your browser settings may allow you to send a “Do Not Track” signal to this site. This will not affect this site’s behavior.
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.
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Unless required by law in specific circumstances, personally-identifying information will not otherwise be disclosed or sold to third parties.

Although most changes are likely to be minor, we may change our Privacy Policy from time to time. We encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
