Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: https://ghananewspage.com.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the information provided in the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam. An anonymized string generated from your email address (called a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment. You can review Gravatar’s privacy policy here.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract any location data from images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience, so you don’t need to re-enter these details for future comments. These cookies will last for one year.

When you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not store any personal data and will be deleted when you close your browser.

Once you log in, we will set cookies to save your login details and screen preferences. Login cookies are stored for two days, and screen options cookies are stored for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. When you log out, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be saved in your browser to record the post ID of the article you just edited. This cookie will expire after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles from external websites. Embedded content behaves in the same way as if you had visited the original website, meaning these websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interactions with their content, including tracking if you are logged in to those websites.

Who We Share Your Data With

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

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely to allow us to recognize and approve future comments automatically, without holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except their username). Website administrators also have the ability to view and edit this information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of your personal data, including any information you’ve provided to us. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold, except for data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
