Who We Are

Our website address is: https://myhandmadcrafts.net. We are passionate about sharing handmade crafts with our community and take your privacy seriously.

Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent to help prevent spam. If you use Gravatar, your anonymized email hash may be sent to their service—see their privacy policy at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Approved comments may display your profile picture publicly next to your comment.

Media

If you upload images, we recommend removing embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as website visitors can extract location information from images displayed publicly.

Cookies

  • Leaving a comment may save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience—these last for one year.
  • Visiting our login page sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies; it contains no personal data and is discarded on browser close.
  • Logging in stores cookies for login details (two days) and screen preferences (one year). Selecting “Remember Me” extends login cookies to two weeks. Logging out will remove login cookies.
  • Editing or publishing an article sets an additional browser cookie indicating the post ID; this expires after one day and contains no personal data.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or articles). Interacting with embedded content from other websites is the same as visiting those websites directly. Such websites may collect data, use cookies, and track your interaction, especially if you have an account and are logged in on their sites.

Data Sharing

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

Data Retention

  • Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely, so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
  • Registered users’ information is stored in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except username). Website admins can also see and edit this information.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an export of your personal data or request its erasure. This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Where Your Data Is Sent
