Who we are
Our website address is: https://animedrawn.com.
Anime Drawn is an anime news and blog website. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit or use our website.
What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Anime Drawn does not actively collect personal information from visitors unless they choose to provide it, such as by leaving a comment, contacting us, or creating an account if registration is available.
Some technical data may be collected automatically by our website, hosting provider, security tools, spam protection tools, cookies, or embedded third-party services.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form. We may also collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam and protect the website.
An anonymized string created from your email address, also called a hash, may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images that include embedded location data, such as EXIF GPS data.
Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from images uploaded to the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are used for your convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies may last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we may set a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
When you log in, we may set cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies usually last for two days, and screen options cookies may last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login may remain active for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie does not include personal data. It simply stores the post ID of the article you edited and expires after one day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content, such as videos, images, posts, or articles from other websites.
Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited that website directly.
These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, add third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. This may also happen if you have an account with that website and are logged in.
Analytics and third-party tools
Anime Drawn may use third-party tools to understand website performance, improve content, protect the website, or detect spam.
These tools may collect technical information such as your browser type, device type, pages visited, IP address, approximate location, and interaction with the website.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website, if registration is available, we may store the personal information they provide in their user profile.
Registered users can usually see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except they may not be able to 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 may request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you provided to us.
You may also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you.
This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data may be sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Some data may also be processed by third-party services used for hosting, security, analytics, spam protection, or embedded content.
