Free Digital Zone respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using this website, you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Collect
We collect a minimal amount of information needed to operate the website:
- Comments: If you leave a comment, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
- Cookies: We use cookies to remember your preferences and to understand how visitors use the site. Details are in the Cookies section below.
- Usage data: We may collect aggregated, anonymous statistics about which pages are visited. This data does not identify you personally.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to operate and maintain the website, respond to your messages, improve our content, and protect the site from spam and abuse. We do not sell your personal information to anyone, and we do not use it for advertising targeting.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use them as follows:
- Comment cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name and email address in cookies so you do not have to re-enter them next time. These cookies last for one year.
- Login cookies: If you log in to the site, we set temporary cookies to check browser compatibility and persistent cookies to keep you signed in, according to the options you choose.
- Preference cookies: We may store display preferences, such as screen options, to improve your browsing experience.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some features of the site, such as staying logged in or pre-filled comment forms.
Embedded Content and Third-Party Links
Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos or images) and links to third-party websites, tools, and resources. Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited those websites directly: they may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction according to their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites, so we encourage you to review their policies.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Data may be processed by our web hosting provider and by automated spam-detection services, solely for the purpose of operating and protecting the website. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. For registered users, we store the personal information provided in the user profile. Website administrators can see and edit that information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, and to request that we erase it. This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. To exercise these rights, contact us through our WhatsApp channel.
Children’s Privacy
This website is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can remove it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The latest version will always be posted on this page. We encourage you to review it periodically.
