Who We Are
Welcome to PyBankers, a blog dedicated to teaching Python, algorithms, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to individuals aged 35+ with no prior coding experience.
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our 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 (hash) generated from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://pybankers.com/privacy-policy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public.
Media
If you upload images to the website, please ensure they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract location data from images on our website.
Cookies
- If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies last for one year.
- When you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
- When you log in, we set cookies to save your login details and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, screen option cookies last for one year, and selecting “Remember Me” keeps your login active for two weeks.
- If you log out, login cookies are removed.
- If you edit or publish an article, a cookie storing the post ID of the edited article is saved in your browser for one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on PyBankers may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos, images, external articles). Embedded content from third-party websites behaves as if you visited those websites directly. These sites may:
- Collect data about you,
- Use cookies,
- Embed third-party tracking, and
- Monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
If you have an account and are logged in to those external websites, your interaction with embedded content may be tracked.
Who We Share Your Data With
- If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
- We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data with third parties.
How Long We Retain Your Data
- Comments: If you leave a comment, it and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.
- User Accounts: For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can see, edit, or delete their personal data at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you can:
- Request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you.
- Request that we erase any personal data we hold, except for data required for legal, security, or administrative purposes.
Where Your Data is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
