Privacy Policy for TodayInAssam.com
At TodayInAssam.com, we are committed to protecting the privacy of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines what information we collect, how we use it, and the steps we take to ensure it remains protected. By using our website, you agree to the practices described below.
Who We Are
Our website address is: https://todayinassam.com. We are a regional digital news platform covering updates across Assam and India, and we take your privacy seriously.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information helps us detect and prevent spam. An anonymized hash created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you’re using it. Once your comment is approved, your Gravatar profile picture becomes visible to the public alongside your comment. You can learn more about Gravatar’s privacy practices at https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Media Uploads
If you choose to upload images to our website, we strongly advise you to avoid including embedded location data (such as EXIF GPS information) in those files. Please note that visitors to the site may be able to download and extract such location data from publicly available images.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on TodayInAssam.com, you may opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies. These cookies are designed for your convenience so you don’t need to re-enter this information when commenting again. These cookies are stored for one year.
When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This temporary cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
If you log in to your account, we’ll set several cookies to store your login credentials and display preferences. Login cookies typically last for two days, and screen settings cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out will remove all login cookies.
When editing or publishing content, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data—only the ID of the article being edited—and it expires after 24 hours.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles published on TodayInAssam.com may include embedded content such as videos, images, or posts from other websites. Such embedded content behaves in the same way as if the visitor were viewing the content directly on the third-party website. These external sites may collect your data, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you are logged in to their platform.
Data Sharing
If you initiate a password reset request, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security verification. We do not share your personal data with third parties unless it is necessary to fulfill your request or required by law.
Data Retention
When you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and automatically approve follow-up comments without needing to hold them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our site (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, update, or delete their personal data at any time—except for the username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators can also view and manage that information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have created an account on TodayInAssam.com or have left comments on our posts, you may request a downloadable file containing the personal data we have stored about you. You also have the right to request that we delete any personal information we hold, except for data we must retain for legal, administrative, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Comments submitted on our website may be reviewed using automated spam detection services. This helps us maintain the security and integrity of our platform.
