not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These
cookies will last for one year. If you have an account and you log in to this
site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts
cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close

Analytics
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely.
This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically
instead of holding them in a moderation queue. For users that register on our
website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their
user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at
any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can
also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to
receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any
data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal
data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep
for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Cookies
To improve the responsiveness of the sites for our users, we may use “cookies”, or
similar electronic tools to collect information to assign each visitor a
unique, random number as a User Identification (User ID) to understand the
user’s individual interests using the Identified Computer. Unless you
voluntarily identify yourself (through registration, for example), we will have
no way of knowing who you are, even if we assign a cookie to your computer. The
only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply (an
example of this is when you ask for our Personalised Horoscope). A cookie
cannot read data off your hard drive. Our advertisers may also assign their own
cookies to your browser (if you click on their ads), a process that we do not
control. Our web servers automatically collect limited information about your
computer’s connection to the Internet, including your IP address, when you
visit our site. (Your IP address is a number that lets computers attached to
the Internet know where to send you data — such as the web pages you view.)
Your IP address does not identify you personally. We use this information to
deliver our web pages to you upon request, to tailor our site to the interests
of our users, to measure traffic within our site and let advertisers know the
geographic locations from where our visitors come.
Links to other sites
Our policy discloses the privacy practices for our own web site only. Our site
provides links to other websites also that are beyond our control. We shall in
no way be responsible in way for your use of such sites.
Information Sharing
We shares the sensitive personal information to any third party without obtaining
the prior consent of the user in the following limited circumstances: (a) When
it is requested or required by law or by any court or governmental agency or
authority to disclose, for the purpose of verification of identity, or for the
prevention, detection, investigation including cyber incidents, or for
prosecution and punishment of offences. These disclosures are made in good
faith and belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary for enforcing these
Terms; for complying with the applicable laws and regulations. (b) We proposes
to share such information within its group companies and officers and employees
of such group companies for the purpose of processing personal information on
its behalf. We also ensure that these recipients of such information agree to
process such information based on our instructions and in compliance with this
Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
Information Security
We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or
unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These include
internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and
security measures, including appropriate encryption and physical security
measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store
personal data. All information gathered on our Website is securely stored
within our controlled database. The database is stored on servers secured
behind a firewall; access to the servers is password-protected and is strictly
limited. However, as effective as our security measures are, no security system
is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our database, nor can we
guarantee that information you supply will not be intercepted while being
transmitted to us over the Internet. And, of course, any information you
include in a posting to the discussion areas is available to anyone with
Internet access. However the internet is an ever evolving medium. We may change
our Privacy Policy from time to time to incorporate necessary future changes.
Of course, our use of any information we gather will always be consistent with
the policy under which the information was collected, regardless of what the
new policy may be.
