Privacy Policy

At Artavia Advertising Agency, safeguarding your privacy and protecting your personal information is paramount to us. This privacy policy outlines how we collect, handle, and safeguard your data when you interact with our website at https://artavia.com.pk.

Comments: When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection. Additionally, an anonymized string created from your email address (hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media: If you choose to upload images to our website, we advise you to avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to our website can download and extract any location data from images on the site.

Cookies: When you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are designed for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies have a duration of one year.

Additionally, when you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. Upon logging in, several cookies are set up to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. Upon logging out, the login cookies will be removed. Editing or publishing an article will result in an additional cookie being saved in your browser, containing no personal data and expiring after 1 day.

Embedded Content: Articles on our site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles) from other websites. Embedded content from these websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

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

Data Retention: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This enables us to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically without holding them in a moderation queue. For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username, which cannot be changed. Website administrators also have access to and can edit this information.

User Rights: If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you have the right to request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. However, this does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Data Processing: Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

We value your privacy and are committed to transparently handling your data. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding our privacy policy or the use of your personal information, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
