Who We Are

Comments

When you leave comments on jharbhoomi.in, we collect the data entered in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect and prevent spam.

If you use an email address linked to Gravatar, an anonymized string (hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you have a profile picture. After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if applicable) will be visible publicly alongside your comment. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/.


Media

If you upload images to jharbhoomi.in, avoid including embedded location data (e.g., EXIF GPS). Visitors can download images from our site and extract any location data present, so we recommend removing such details before uploading.


Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your experience on jharbhoomi.in:

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies last for one year, so you won’t need to re-enter your details for future comments.
  • Login Page: Visiting our login page (if available) sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
  • Logged-In Users: When you log in, we set cookies to store your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen option cookies last for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login to two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on jharbhoomi.in may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or links) from external websites. This content behaves as if you visited the original site directly. These third-party sites may collect data, use cookies, or track your interaction with the embedded content—especially if you’re logged into their services (e.g., YouTube or social media). We’re not responsible for their privacy practices, so please review their policies.
