At One Man Solutions, your privacy matters to us. Here’s a clear breakdown of what personal data we collect, why we collect it, and how it’s used.
Information We Collect
Comments:
When you leave a comment on our blog, we collect the data you enter in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam.
An anonymized string (a hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you’re using it. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media:
If you upload images to the site, please avoid including GPS location data (EXIF). Visitors can download and extract location data from uploaded images.
Contact Forms:
Any information you share through our contact forms is collected and stored.
Cookies:
- When you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These last for one year.
- We set temporary cookies to check your browser compatibility — these are deleted when you close your browser.
- Login cookies last for 2 days. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for 2 weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
- Screen options cookies last 1 year.
- Post-editing cookies are kept for 1 day.
Embedded Content:
Some posts may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). This content behaves the same as if you visited the source website directly. These third-party sites may collect data, use cookies, and track your interaction with that embedded content.
Why We Collect Your Information
We collect personal information to:
- Help prevent spam in comments.
- Enhance your experience through saved preferences.
- Understand how our website is used, through embedded content.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not share your personal data with any third-party companies.
How Long We Keep Your Data
- Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely. This helps us automatically approve follow-up comments.
- User account data is stored indefinitely. You can request to view, edit, or delete your personal data anytime — except for your username, which cannot be changed.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you’ve left comments or have an account on our site, you can request to:
- Receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Ask us to delete your personal data, unless we need to keep it for legal or security reasons.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection system.
We’re committed to being transparent about how we collect and use your data. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us.
