VaScaler is committed to protecting your privacy. Our website is located at https://vascaler.com.

Comments

When you leave comments on our site, we collect the information you provide in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

If you use Gravatar, an anonymized hash of your email may be shared with this service to display your profile image. After your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

We recommend avoiding uploading images containing embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Any visitor to our website can download images and potentially extract location data if it’s present.

Cookies

If you comment on our site, you may opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience in future comments. These cookies remain for one year.

Our login system uses several types of cookies:

  • Temporary cookies to verify browser cookie compatibility

None of these cookies contain personal information beyond what’s necessary for site functionality.

Embedded Content

Articles on our site may include embedded content from other websites (videos, images, articles, etc.). These embedded elements function exactly as if you visited the other website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use their own cookies, employ additional tracking technologies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.

These rights exclude data we must retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
