Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2026
How this website handles your information, in plain language.
The short version
Your privacy is critically important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected on https://www.mayurcoder.com (referred to as “us”, “we”, or “https://www.mayurcoder.com”), how we use this information, and under what circumstances we may disclose it to third parties. This policy applies only to information collected through this website.
Who We Are
https://www.mayurcoder.com is a personal blogging and portfolio website catering to IT consultancy, data engineering, and system design solutions. The website is owned and operated by Mayur Shahasane at https://www.mayurcoder.com.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to verify if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com. Upon approval of your comment, your profile picture becomes publicly visible alongside your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website, though they do not have rights for commercial reuse.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again for future comments. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, 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 your browser. Login session cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year.
Google AdSense and Personalized Advertising
We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements on our blog pages. Google and other third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to https://www.mayurcoder.com or other websites across the internet.
Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve targeted ads to our visitors based on their browsing behavior on this site and/or other locations on the Internet.
You can manage or opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings page. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the AboutAds Info Choice Page.
Third-Party Links & Embedded Content
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the external website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content.
We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy and terms of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. For users that register on our website (if any), we store the personal information provided in their profile.
Data Rights and Security
The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, or request that we erase your personal data. This excludes data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Website Analytics and Visitor Statistics
We use Google Analytics (a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc.) to track and evaluate visitor traffic behavior patterns across our platform infrastructure. Google Analytics works by planting a permanent text cookie on your web browser engine to track telemetry metrics (such as your session duration, page pathways, and general geographic location data).
The anonymous information compiled by these cookies is transmitted directly to Google servers to help us optimize the content flow, platform rendering speeds, and tech advisory updates of our site. You can choose to completely mask your browsing profile or opt-out of this analytics processing system at any time by disabling cookie permissions inside your web browser configuration settings or by downloading the official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Changes to this policy
I may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date above will always reflect the most recent version. Material changes will be noted on the blog.
