Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: https://yellowe.xyz

Comments

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. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

What data we collect

When you visit our site, interact with our content, or make a purchase, we may collect the following information:

  • Personal information you provide when signing up, subscribing, filling out forms, or placing an order — such as your name, email address, phone number, and billing or shipping details.
  • Account details, if you register on our site — including your username, password (encrypted), and preferences.
  • Technical data, like your IP address, browser type, device info, and pages visited. This helps us improve site performance and protect against misuse.
  • Communication data from emails or messages you send us — including support requests or form submissions.
  • Marketing preferences, if you subscribe to our blog, newsletter, or updates.
  • Purchase and transaction data — including order history and payment details. Note: payment info is processed securely via trusted third-party providers; we don’t store card details on our servers.

We collect only what we need — to deliver a better experience, stay in touch, and keep your account secure.

Who we share your data with

We don’t sell, rent, or trade your personal data — ever. We may use it internally to improve how our website works, enhance your experience, or occasionally let you know about our own updates and services.

We only share your information with trusted third-party services that help us run things behind the scenes — like hosting, analytics, or email tools. They only receive what’s necessary, and they’re required to keep your data secure.

If we’re ever legally required to disclose information (for example, due to a court order), we’ll only do so within the limits of the law.

How long we retain your data

Suggested text: 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, 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.

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.

Where your data is sent

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