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.

The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

- Your IP address
- Browser type
- Time spent on pages
- Referring/exit pages
Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use our site, allowing us to improve our content and user experience. For more information on how Google Analytics collects and processes data, please visit Google’s Privacy Policy.
You can opt-out of Google Analytics tracking by using the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
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.
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.

We use cookies to:
- Personalize and improve your browsing experience.
- Analyze traffic and website usage.
- Enable specific features such as remembering your preferences.
You can choose to disable cookies through your browser settings. However, doing so may affect your ability to use certain features of our site.
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.
How We Use Your Information
We may use the information we collect in the following ways:
- To improve our website’s content, layout, and user experience.
- To monitor and analyze website performance using Google Analytics and other tools.
- To respond to your comments, questions, or requests.
- To send occasional emails about updates, news, and content related to lifeinkr.com.
Who we share your data with
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. 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 website (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.
Data Security
We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data.
Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to third-party websites, such as YouTube or social media platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. Please review their privacy policies before sharing any personal information.
