Introduction and Commitment
The team at astroforgex.info recognizes that privacy is a fundamental right of every individual, and therefore we strive to handle all data submitted through our website—including personal identifiers, comment content, and technical metadata such as IP addresses and browser specifications—with the highest level of care, ensuring that information is used exclusively for operational, security, and analytical purposes in order to enhance the functionality and reliability of our services.
Information Collected Automatically
When users visit our website, certain technical data is automatically collected, including but not limited to IP addresses, device types, browser information, and timestamped access records; this data is utilized for internal monitoring, detecting unauthorized or suspicious activity, preventing fraudulent access, and optimizing the user experience without compromising personally identifiable information unnecessarily.
Uploading Media and Metadata
Users who upload media content are strongly advised to ensure that files do not contain embedded GPS coordinates or other metadata that may inadvertently reveal personal location information; failure to remove such information may result in inadvertent disclosure to other visitors or third-party services, potentially compromising the privacy and security of those contributing content.
Cookies Usage
Our platform leverages cookies to improve usability and personalization, including storing information such as usernames, email addresses, and website URLs for one year to facilitate repeated interactions; temporary cookies verify browser capabilities, login cookies last two days, and settings/preferences cookies persist for up to one year, while the “Remember Me” feature prolongs session persistence for two weeks, allowing users to maintain authenticated access without repeated logins.
Integration of External Content
Embedded content sourced from external providers behaves as if the user is interacting directly with the originating website, thereby allowing third-party services to collect data, set cookies, and monitor engagement patterns; such external interactions are governed by the respective external sites’ privacy policies, over which we exercise no direct control.
Data Management and Sharing
During password reset requests or other critical operations, your IP address is automatically included in the relevant communications to ensure verification of authenticity; all comments and associated metadata are stored indefinitely to allow for moderation and continuity, while registered users retain the ability to view, modify, or request the removal of their personal information, excluding unchangeable identifiers, and administrators are authorized to oversee, manage, and protect this data according to internal protocols.
Rights of Users
Users retain the right to request a full copy of their personal data and to request deletion of information not required for legal, operational, or security purposes; comments may be subject to automated spam detection services to ensure compliance with community guidelines, providing a secure and reliable environment for all participants.
