What data do we store?
Data stored via the comment section
Our site gathers the user’s data, those who write in the comment box, by saving the comment (with IP address) in order to detect spam. We use an automated spam detection application named “Antispam Bee” which actively monitors the comment section. This application identifies any kind of spam by using an anonymised string or hash that is generated via the user’s email Id. The site stores user’s data, including comments and IP addresses, for an indefinite time period. This enables us to automatically remember, recognise and approve a quick follow-up of the comments instead of holding them in a moderate queue.
Data stored via the contact us page
The website provides a “Contact Us” page to resolve your queries. This requires some of your personal information, which is saved with us. The user is free to ask us for the deletion of saved personal data, excluding the information which we are obliged to retain for administrative, security and legal use.
