Who We Are
Our website address is: https://blog.linkin.love
This blog provides tutorials, guides, and educational content related to using the LinkinLove platform and AI. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about the data we collect.
What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect 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. 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.
Contact Forms
We use contact forms to allow visitors to get in touch with us. When you submit a contact form, we collect:
- Your name and email address
- Any message content you provide
- Your IP address for security purposes
We keep contact form submissions for customer service purposes and to respond to your inquiries. We do not use the information submitted through contact forms for marketing purposes unless you specifically opt-in to receive marketing communications.
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.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. Google Analytics collects information anonymously and reports website trends without identifying individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Who We Share Your Data With
WordPress.com Services: Our blog is hosted on WordPress, and some data may be processed by Automattic (WordPress.com) as part of providing hosting services.
Spam Protection: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
Comment Spam Detection: Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service (Akismet). You can learn more about Akismet’s privacy policy here
Google Analytics: We share anonymized usage data with Google Analytics to understand website performance and user behavior.
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
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 blog (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.
Contact form submissions: We retain contact form data for 2 years for customer service purposes.
Analytics data: Google Analytics data is retained according to Google’s data retention policies.
