Privacy Policy

Who we are

Welcome to PyNinja!

We are committed to protecting your privacy and personal information. In this Privacy Policy, we explain what information we collect from you and how we use it.

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: https://automattic.com/privacy/. 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

PyNinja uses cookies, which are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit our website. Cookies help us personalize your experience on PyNinja and improve the performance of our website. You can choose to disable cookies in your browser settings, but this may impact the functionality of PyNinja.

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 exactly 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 tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety.

How long we retain your data

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 (if any), 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.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here that it has been updated, so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it.

Advertising and Affiliate Programs

PyNinja uses advertising and affiliate programs, such as Google AdSense and Amazon Associates, to help support our website. These programs may use cookies to personalize the ads that you see and to track your browsing behavior.

If you click on an affiliate link on PyNinja and make a purchase, we may receive a commission. This does not affect the price you pay for the product, and we only recommend products that we believe will be helpful to our readers.

Email Newsletter

If you choose to sign up for our email newsletter, we will collect your name and email address. We will only use this information to send you the latest insights and posts from PyNinja.

We use a third-party provider, [insert name of provider], to manage our email newsletter. We will never share your email address with anyone else, and you can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email.

Children’s Privacy

PyNinja does not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 13, please do not provide us with any personal information.

Data Security

We take data security seriously and have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data.

Acceptance of Terms

By using PyNinja, you signify your acceptance of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this policy, please do not use our website. Your continued use of PyNinja following the posting of changes to this policy will be deemed your acceptance of those changes.
