Thank you for visiting chelongar.com. Your privacy is important to me. This policy explains what personal data is collected, how it’s used, and your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Who am I?
This website is operated by Chelongar, a personal branding website based in Germany.
If you have any questions about this privacy policy or your data, you can contact me at: conntact@chelongar.com
What Personal Data Is Collected and Why
Comments
When you leave a comment on the site, the following information is collected:
- Name and email (as provided in the form)
- IP address and browser user agent (to help detect spam)
An anonymized string (hash) of your email may be sent to Gravatar to check if you have a profile there. Gravatar’s privacy policy: https://automattic.com/privacy/
After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible next to your comment.
Email Communication
If you contact me via email, I will receive your email address and any information you provide. This data is used solely to respond to your message.
Media Uploads
If you upload images (e.g. via comments), please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as other visitors can download and extract that data.
Cookies
This website uses cookies to enhance your experience. You may opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies when leaving a comment. These are for your convenience and last up to one year.
Other cookies may be set by your browser or by services used on this site (e.g., embedded content).
Embedded content from other websites
Articles may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images). Embedded content from third-party websites behaves as if you visited those sites directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with that content—especially if you’re logged into their platform (like YouTube, Twitter, etc.).
How long we retain your data
- Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely, so future comments can be auto-approved.
- Emails you send are kept only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry or maintain correspondence.
Your Rights (Under GDPR)
You have the right to:
- Access your personal data
- Request correction or deletion
- Withdraw consent (where applicable)
- Object to data processing
- File a complaint with your local data protection authority
To make a request, contact me at conntact@chelongar.com
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (e.g., Akismet).
Data Security
I take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data. However, please note that no method of internet transmission is 100% secure.
Changes to This Policy
This policy may be updated occasionally. The latest version will always be available at [chelongar.com/privacy] (or wherever you post it).
