Who We Are

WordPress Analytics is a personal blog about web analytics for WordPress users. Our website address is: https://wordpress-analytics.com.

This site is operated by Ellie from Utrecht, The Netherlands. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about what data we collect.

What Data We Collect

Contact Form

When you use our contact form, we collect:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • The subject and content of your message

This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry and is not shared with third parties.

Comments

When you leave a comment on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as your IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to display your profile picture. The Gravatar privacy policy is available here.

Cookies

This website uses minimal cookies:

  • Comment cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience. These last for one year.
  • Session cookies: Temporary cookies that help the site function properly. These are deleted when you close your browser.

We do not use tracking cookies for advertising purposes.

Analytics

We may use privacy-friendly analytics tools to understand how visitors use our site. Any analytics data collected is aggregated and anonymized — we cannot identify individual visitors.

Embedded Content

Articles on this site may include embedded content (videos, images, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited that website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.

Contact form submissions are retained for up to 2 years for reference purposes, then deleted.

Your Rights

If you have left comments or contacted us, you can request:

  • An exported file of the personal data we hold about you
  • Erasure of any personal data we hold about you

This does not include data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
