What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

1. Comments

When visitors leave comments on eGiftsNepal.com, we collect the information provided in the comment form, along with the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string. This data helps us detect and prevent spam and abuse-because nobody likes digital junk in their digital home.

If you're using the Gravatar service, an anonymized hash (created from your email address) may be shared with Gravatar to check if you have a profile image linked. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy.

Once your comment is approved, your profile picture-if you have one-is displayed publicly next to your comment, like a tiny stamp of digital identity.

2. Media

If you upload images to eGiftsNepal.com-such as payment proof, profile photos, or other uploads-please make sure they do not contain embedded location data (such as EXIF GPS tags).

Why? Because visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location information from those images. Protecting your privacy starts with the details-even the ones hiding inside a photo.

3. Cookies

We use cookies on eGiftsNepal.com to make your experience smoother and faster-like your favorite digital shortcut.

If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies. These are just for your convenience, so you won't have to re-type them every time. These cookies last for one year.

If you have an account and log in, we'll place a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. It holds no personal info and vanishes once you close your browser.

When you log in, we set several cookies to remember your login and screen preferences:

• Login cookies last for 2 days.
• Screen settings cookies last for 1 year.
• If you check "Remember Me," your login sticks around for 2 weeks.
• Log out, and the login cookies vanish.

If you edit or publish content, another cookie is saved in your browser. It doesn't contain personal data-just the post ID of what you edited. It disappears after 1 day.

Cookies are like helpful digital crumbs-they make the site work better for you, but you're always in control.

4. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Some articles or pages on eGiftsNepal.com may include embedded content-like videos, images, or product information-from other websites. When this happens, that embedded content behaves just like you've visited the original site directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, implement additional tracking tools, and monitor how you interact with the embedded content-especially if you're logged into those external sites while viewing it.

Basically, when you're watching a video or viewing content hosted elsewhere, you're playing by their rules, not just ours.

5. How Long We Retain Your Data

When you leave a comment on eGiftsNepal.com, we keep the comment and its metadata indefinitely. Why? So we can recognize and approve future comments from you automatically-without tossing them into the moderation pile every time.

If you create an account on our site (if that's ever available), we also store the personal information you provide in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your data anytime-except for your username, which stays locked in.

Website admins (our trusted digital janitors) can also view and edit this info to help manage the site and assist you when needed.

6. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

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.

7. Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
