Privacy Policy

Last Updated: February 2025

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://afterthebellrings.com.

Information We Collect

Analytics

We use Google Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics Insights to track visitor behavior. This includes IP addresses, browser types, device information, and general usage statistics.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here. After approval, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media Uploads

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can download and extract this data.

Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies to enhance user experience and manage login sessions.

 

Caching

This site utilizes caching to improve performance and user experience by storing duplicate copies of displayed web pages.

Embedded Content

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites. These third-party sites may collect data, use cookies, and track interactions as if you had visited them directly.

Data Sharing

We do not sell or trade your data.

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

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

Data Retention

Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely to allow automatic approval of future comments.

Registered users (if applicable) can see, edit, or delete their personal data (except their username). Administrators can also manage user information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data. You can also request deletion of your data, except for records we are required to keep for legal, administrative, or security purposes.

Security

We rely on Cloudflare for website security. While we take precautions, no online service is entirely secure.
