What personal data we collect
We collect only the data needed to run the site, answer messages, and improve our coverage.
When you contact us: name, email address, the content of your message, and technical details supplied by your device.
When you comment: display name, email address, comment text, timestamp, and IP address for spam prevention and security.
Cookies and consent: your choices on our consent banner, plus a record of when you gave or changed consent.
Usage data: pages viewed, time on page, approximate location at the city or country level, device and browser information, and referral source. This is used to understand what content is useful and to keep the site reliable.
Ads and measurements: if you accept marketing or measurement cookies, advertising partners may set or read cookies and receive limited data to show ads and measure performance.
Business communication: if you discuss sponsorships or partnerships with us, we keep your name, role, company, and the content of our emails.
We do not collect special category data such as health, religion, or biometric identifiers.
Why we use your data: legal bases
- Consent: for non-essential cookies, analytics beyond strictly necessary measurement, and personalized advertising where enabled.
- Contract: to respond to messages you send and to provide content you ask for.
- Legitimate interests: to keep the site secure, prevent abuse, measure basic reach, and improve our writing and layout.
- Legal obligation: to comply with court orders or lawful requests.
You can withdraw consent at any time. See the Cookies and consent section for how to change your choices.
Cookies and consent
Visitors in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland see a consent banner on first visit. You choose which cookie categories to allow. Your choices are remembered until the banner needs to reappear by law or when you clear cookies.
Advertising, analytics, and signals
When you allow statistics or marketing, our partners may receive limited data to measure traffic and show ads. We use a Google-certified consent tool that supports TCF and Consent Mode v2. That tool sends signals about your choices so partners adapt: for example, serving non-personalized ads if you decline personalized ads. If you refuse marketing and measurement, only necessary cookies load.
How we share data
We share personal data only with service providers that help us run the site. Examples include hosting, security, analytics, anti-spam, email delivery, and advertising platforms. These providers act on our instructions and use appropriate safeguards. We do not sell personal data.
Data retention
Contact messages: kept for up to eighteen months for reference and follow-up.
Comment records: kept for the life of the article unless you ask us to remove them.
Consent records: kept as required by law to demonstrate compliance.
Analytics data: kept in aggregate form where possible. When raw data exists, we keep it no longer than fourteen months unless required for security.
International transfers
We are based in India and some providers operate globally. When data is transferred outside your region, we rely on safeguards recognized by law such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent protections provided by the recipient. We choose providers with a strong security track record.
Your rights
If you are in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you have the rights below. We will respond within one month.
- Access: ask for a copy of your personal data.
- Rectification: ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Objection: object to processing based on legitimate interests or to direct marketing.
- Portability: receive the data you provided in a structured, commonly used format and ask us to send it to another controller when technically feasible.
- Withdraw consent: change your cookie choices or withdraw any other consent you gave.
To exercise a right, email support@gozomosi.com with the subject line: GDPR request: your chosen right. We may ask for information to confirm your identity.
Complaints
You can contact us first so we can try to fix the issue. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland.
Security
We use a modern hosting stack, encryption in transit, strong access controls, and routine software updates. We limit who can access personal data and review access on a regular schedule. No system is perfectly secure. If we discover a risk to your data, we will act quickly and follow legal duties to notify where required.
Children
Our content is for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under the age that requires parental consent in their country. If you believe a child provided personal data, email us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We will update this page when our practices or the law changes. Significant updates will be reflected by the date at the top and, when appropriate, explained inside relevant articles.
