At International Article, we are committed to protecting your privacy and maintaining transparency about how your data is used on our site. This page outlines what information we collect, how it’s used, and what rights you have regarding your personal data.
1. Who We Are
Our website address is: https://internationalarticle.com.
We are a global blog dedicated to sharing insights, articles, and stories that matter across cultures and borders.
2. Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect and prevent spam.
We may also use an anonymized string (hash) generated from your email address to check if you’re using the Gravatar service. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible publicly alongside your comment.
3. Media Uploads
If you upload images to our website, we recommend removing embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Other users may be able to download and extract location data from images posted publicly.
4. Cookies
We use cookies to enhance your experience. If you leave a comment, you may opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies—so you don’t have to re-enter them the next time. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we use a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie doesn’t store any personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
If you log in, additional cookies will be set:
- Login cookies (last 2 days)
- Screen display preference cookies (last 1 year)
- “Remember Me” option extends login for 2 weeks
Logging out removes these cookies.
If you edit or publish an article, a cookie is saved to note the post ID of the article—this cookie expires after 1 day and contains no personal information.
5. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or other articles. Embedded content from third-party sites behaves as if the visitor has visited that external site directly.
These sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with their content—especially if you are logged into their platform.
6. Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.
7. Data Retention
When you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve future comments without delay.
If you register on our site (if registration is available), we store the personal details you provide in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your personal data at any time—except for your username. Website administrators can also see and manage this information.
8. Your Data Rights
If you have an account or have left comments on our site, you may:
- Request an export of the personal data we hold about you
- Request deletion of your personal data
This excludes data we must retain for legal, administrative, or security purposes.
To request your data or ask for removal, contact us at: [Your Email Address]
9. Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through automated spam detection services to ensure a safe and clean user experience.
