At GlutenFreeItem.com, your privacy is extremely important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you visit our website or interact with our content.

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://glutenfreeitem.com. We are a blog dedicated to sharing the latest news and updates on gluten-free food, trends, and product reviews.

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 help with spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.

Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of 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 site can download and extract location data from any images.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience and will last for one year.

When you visit our login page, we 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.

Upon logging in, we set cookies to save your login information and screen preferences. Login cookies last two days, and screen preference cookies last one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be stored in your browser with no personal data—only the post ID—and it expires after 1 day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content behaves just as if you had visited the other website.

These third-party websites may collect your data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content, including if you have an account and are logged into their site.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us approve follow-up comments automatically.

For users who register on our site (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (username changes not allowed). Website administrators can also view and edit that information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

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