Effective Date: April 05, 2025

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how mentalDashboard.com collects, uses, and safeguards your personal information when you visit and interact with our website.


Who We Are

Our website address is: https://mentaldashboard.com.


Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data displayed in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string, to help detect and prevent spam.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture becomes visible to the public in the context of your comment.


Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract any location data from such images.


Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you don’t have to fill in your details again for future comments. These cookies will 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 does not contain personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies will be set up to save your login information and screen display preferences:

  • Login cookies last for two days.
  • Screen options cookies last for one year.
  • If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for 2 weeks.
  • If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.

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


Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content, such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves as though the visitor has visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect your data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you are logged in to that website.


Who We Share Your Data With

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


How Long Do We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, it and its metadata will be retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we also store the personal information provided in their user profiles. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). 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 can request a file containing the personal data we hold about you, including any data you provided to us.

You can 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 checked through an automated spam detection service.
