Welcome to DomesticGlitch.com (“we”, “our”, or “us”). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our website.
By using our site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Who We Are
Our website address is: https://domesticglitch.com
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, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) from your email may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After comment approval, 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 may download and extract any location data from images on the site.
Cookies
We use cookies to enhance your experience. This includes:
- Saving your name, email, and website when you leave a comment (for your convenience). These cookies last for one year.
- Temporary cookies on the login page to check browser compatibility — discarded when the browser is closed.
- Login and screen option cookies — login cookies last for two days; screen option cookies last for a year. If “Remember Me” is selected, login persists for two weeks.
- If you edit or publish an article, a cookie storing the post ID is set (no personal data). Expires after one day.
Cookies also support site analytics, third-party embeds, and services such as Google reCAPTCHA (details below).
You may control cookies through your browser settings.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, music players, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you visited the external site directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — especially if you’re logged into those sites.
Payment Information
We offer paid services (e.g., music, downloads, subscriptions), and payment information is securely processed through trusted third-party providers such as Stripe or PayPal. We do not store full credit card details on our servers.
Google reCAPTCHA
We use Google reCAPTCHA to protect our forms from spam and abuse. It may collect user interactions (mouse movements, keystrokes, etc.) and browser/device information. Use of reCAPTCHA is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell or rent your personal data. We may share information with:
- Trusted third-party services (e.g., payment processors, email marketing platforms) strictly for the purpose of operating the site.
- Legal authorities if required to comply with applicable laws.
- If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
- Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
For registered users (if any), we store personal information in user profiles. Users can view, edit, or delete their own info at any time (except for usernames). Administrators can also view and edit that information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data, including anything you’ve provided to us. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you.
This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
To make a request, please refer to our Contact Page.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be scanned by automated spam detection services and, in some cases, handled by third-party tools (such as analytics or reCAPTCHA) outside your country of residence.
Data Security
We use industry-standard encryption and security practices (such as SSL) to protect your personal information. While we strive to keep your data safe, no method of transmission over the internet or storage is 100% secure.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes to our practices or for legal reasons. All updates will be posted on this page.
