Privacy Policy – LOTUS365

Website Address: https://lotusind365.net/

At LOTUS365, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you visit or interact with our website.

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. This information helps us detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string (also known as a hash) generated from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. You can view the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.

Once your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public within the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to LOTUS365, please ensure they do not include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may download and extract location data from uploaded images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are provided for your convenience so that you don’t have to re-enter your details the next time you comment. These cookies remain active for one year.

When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to verify whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

After logging in, we set additional cookies to save your login information and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and display option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will stay active for two weeks. Logging out will remove the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles or pages on LOTUS365 may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or articles) from other websites. Embedded content functions exactly as it would if you had visited the source website directly.

These external websites may collect your data, use cookies, include third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with their embedded content — particularly if you have an account and are logged in to those websites.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email to ensure account security.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments instead of holding them for moderation.

For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profiles. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time — except their username. Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

Your Data Rights

If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you’ve provided. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be reviewed through an automated spam detection service to ensure website safety and authenticity.

For any questions or concerns regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact us through our official channels listed on https://lotusind365.net/.
