Beacuse we all love it:
The Privacy Policy
Who we are
We’re Framanför AB, which sounds fancy, but it’s really just me – Martin Nordin. A one-man band navigating the AI revolution and trying to keep everything running smoothly without losing my mind (or your trust). This policy explains how I handle your data, because, well, it’s the law, and I like to do things properly.
Comments
If you leave a comment, I collect the details you provide: your name, email, and whatever thoughts you’ve decided to share with the world. I also log your IP address and browser info, mostly to keep out spam. Think of it like me standing at the door of the comment section, making sure it’s a friendly space.
When you use Gravatar, we send them a hashed version of your email (like your email in a clever disguise). If they’re happy, your profile pic will show up next to your comment, adding a bit of flair to whatever you’ve just said. If you’re curious about what Gravatar does with this data, their privacy policy is here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Media
Uploading images? Fantastic. Just make sure there’s no hidden location data (EXIF GPS) in them. Not because I’m snooping, but because someone else might. No one needs strangers figuring out where you live because of a photo of your dog.
Cookies
Cookies are little data helpers that keep the website ticking. Here’s how they work around here:
- Editing/Publishing: If you edit or publish an article, a temporary cookie stores the post ID for the day. Exciting stuff, I know.
- Comments: If you leave one, I save your name, email, and website in cookies. This way, you don’t have to keep retyping them every time. Handy, right? These cookies stick around for a year.
- Logins: If you log in, I’ll set cookies to save your login details and screen preferences. They’ll last a couple of days unless you select “Remember Me,” in which case they’ll hang around for two weeks. If you log out, the cookies vanish. Like magic, but digital!
If cookies aren’t your thing (the digital kind, not the edible ones), you can adjust your browser settings to manage or block them. It’s a bit like clearing crumbs off the table – tedious, but sometimes necessary. Just keep in mind, blocking cookies might make certain parts of this website sulk and refuse to work properly. Your call!
Analytics and tracking
To help me understand how people use this website (and occasionally marvel at how someone found it at all), I use Google Analytics. This tool collects anonymised data like which pages you visit, how long you stay, and where you clicked – kind of like a digital trail of breadcrumbs.
Here’s what you should know:
- Google Analytics uses cookies to track this information.
- None of the data collected identifies you personally; it’s all aggregated to give me general insights like ‘How many visitors do I get?’ and ‘Does anyone actually read the privacy policy?’
- If you’re curious (or just really bored), you can read Google’s privacy policy here: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
If you don’t fancy being tracked at all, you can disable cookies in your browser settings or use Google’s opt-out tool: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. It’s your data after all, isn’t it?
Embedded content from other websites
Sometimes, I use videos, images, or articles from other websites because, let’s face it, I can’t do everything myself. Interacting with this content is like visiting their site directly. They might collect data about you, use cookies, or keep tabs on what you’re up to. I’m doing my best to keep this site from falling apart, so I don’t have time to babysit other websites. If you’re curious about their shenanigans, you’ll have to check their policies yourself.
Who we share your data with
In short, no one. The only exception is if you request a password reset, in which case your IP address will be included in the email. Beyond that, your data stays with me. I’m not selling it or handing it out, because that’s not how I roll.
How long we retain your data
Comments and their metadata stick around indefinitely. Why? Because it’s easier than manually approving every follow-up comment.
If you create an account, I keep your profile. It’s yours to edit/delete whenever, but usernames? Those are forever. So, unless you enjoy a healthy dose of regret, consider something timeless. AI_Martin_Fanboy2024 screams ‘trendsetter’ now, but what about in 2035?
What rights you have over your data
Request your data? Easy. Delete it all? Happily, except for the bits I’m legally required to keep, which may involve me double-checking what those are first. Turns out, GDPR compliance is a bit like assembling IKEA furniture: it’s all in the manual you don’t have.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments might go through a spam detection service. Think of it as a virtual bouncer, keeping out the riff-raff so your comment section doesn’t turn into a mess of sketchy links and nonsense. It’s (hopefully) effective, efficient, and slightly smug about it.
Wrapping things up
So, there you go – that’s the Privacy Policy. It’s just me trying to juggle trust, tech, and this whole AI thing. Got a question? Ask away. Chances are, I’ll let AI have the first crack at it. It’s cheaper than hiring a team and doesn’t ask for coffee breaks.
