Full Privacy Policy (Detailed)

1. Information We Collect

We collect information to operate the site, provide the services you request, deliver relevant content, and protect the community.

1 Information You Provide Directly

In Short: We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you interact with the site, express an interest in obtaining information, or otherwise contact us.

What: When you voluntarily interact with the site – for example, by submitting a contact form, leaving a comment, or contacting us by email – you may provide:

  • Contact details: name and email address (so we can reply).
  • Message content: the content of your message, comment, or form submission.
  • Purchase information: if we ever sell products, transaction details (order, billing) will be collected solely to process the transaction.

Sensitive Information: We do not knowingly process sensitive personal information. This includes data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or data concerning health or sexual orientation. All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete, and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information.

Why: To respond, fulfill requests, moderate comments, and provide a safe user experience. We retain direct-submitted information only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected or as required by law.

1.2 Information Collected Automatically

In Short: Some information – such as your Internet Protocol (IP) address and/or browser and device characteristics – is collected automatically when you visit our Services.

Even if you don’t provide information directly, modern websites collect certain technical and usage data automatically – this helps us keep the site functional and relevant. Below we explain what we collect and why it matters.

IP Address

What: Your device’s IP address (a numeric label assigned by your internet provider).

Why: We use IP addresses to identify general geographic region, manage traffic, detect suspicious activity (e.g., DDoS or repeated malicious requests), and enforce security measures. IP addresses alone do not identify a specific person unless combined with additional data.

Device Type & Browser Type

What: Information about the device (mobile, desktop), operating system, and browser you use.

Why: To optimize site layout, ensure compatibility, and troubleshoot issues (for example, if videos fail to play on a particular browser).

Pages Viewed & Date/Time of Visits

What: Which pages you visit and when.

Why: This helps us understand which content is most useful, prioritize improvements, and decide which topics deserve more coverage.

Referring URL

What: The URL or source that sent traffic to our site (search, social, another website).

Why: To measure the effectiveness of promotion channels, fix broken links, and improve discoverability.

General Location (IP-based)

What: Approximate location based on IP address (country, region).

Why: To present regionally relevant content and to comply with legal/regulatory requirements when necessary (for example, region-specific notices).

1.3 Cookies & Similar Technologies

We, and the third-party services we use, employ cookies and similar technologies (local storage, pixel tags) to collect and store information. Below we explain the common types and their purpose:

  • Essential cookies: Required for core site functionality (session management, form submissions).
  • Performance & analytics cookies: Used by Google Analytics to understand traffic patterns, page performance, and content engagement (these are aggregated and help us improve the site).
  • Advertising cookies: Used by Google AdSense and third-party social media embeds to deliver relevant ads and to limit repetitive ad impressions.
  • Embedded content cookies: Set by third-party platforms (e.g., YouTube, Meta) when you interact with embedded content on our pages.

Your control: You can block or delete cookies using your browser settings. However, disabling cookies may reduce functionality (for example, you might need to re-enter information or an embedded video may not remember playback preferences).

2. Third-Party Services We Use (Table)

The table below shows the main third-party services used on the site, why we use them, and the types of data they may collect on our behalf. Please note that “any time you interact with embedded content from these providers (like clicking ‘Play’ on a video or ‘Follow’ on a widget), they may collect data about that interaction, even if you do not have an account with them.”

3. How We Use Your Information – Detailed Uses & Examples

In Short: We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our Services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. We may also process your information for other purposes with your consent.

We use collected data for the following purposes. Examples are included so the intent is clear:

  • Service delivery & communication: Responding to contact form inquiries, moderating comments, fulfilling requests for information.
  • Content improvement: Identifying which articles perform best so we can produce more valuable content (e.g., if a braid tutorial outperforms other posts, we may create a series).
  • Advertising & personalization: Show ads relevant to readers’ interests, increasing ad relevance and reducing irrelevant impressions.
  • Security & fraud prevention: Block malicious IPs, detect automated attacks, and keep comment threads clean.
  • Legal & compliance: Preserve evidence in the case of abuse, respond to lawful requests from authorities, and maintain records where required.

We do not sell your personal information. Sharing is limited to service providers and legal circumstances described in this policy.

4. Advertising & Cookies – Expanded

Advertising funds the site and allows us to keep content free. We use cookies to make advertising useful and less intrusive. Below are common cookie-related advertising activities explained.

  • Ad personalization: Ads may be personalized based on interest signals collected by AdSense (e.g., pages viewed). Personalization is controlled by the ad network settings.
  • Frequency capping: Prevents the same ad from showing repeatedly to the same user, improving user experience.
  • Invalid activity detection: Systems that detect click fraud, bot traffic, and other abuse to protect advertisers and our site.

How to opt out: You can opt out of interest-based advertising through www.networkadvertising.org or via Google Ads Settings. For Google Analytics tracking opt-out, see the GA opt-out tool.

Google Partner Policy Addendum

Our website works with Google and other advertising partners to show ads and measure how well those ads perform. These partners may use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites. This helps them show ads that are more relevant and to limit how often the same ad appears. Google may also combine this information with data they already hold if you are signed in to your Google account, and they may use it to personalize ads across their services.

You can choose to disable personalized advertising at any time. Visit your Google Ads Settings page or see the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page for broader industry opt-out options. If you prefer, you may also block or delete cookies entirely through your browser settings, though some website features may not function as expected.

By using this website, you agree that Google and our other advertising partners may process your information for the purposes explained above in accordance with their own privacy policies. For more details on how Google uses information from partner sites, please review Google’s policies at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

4. Your Choices, Rights & How to Exercise Them

We provide practical controls and transparent methods for managing your data:

  • Cookie controls: Block or delete cookies from your browser settings. Each browser has instructions (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari) for managing cookies.
  • Contact-based data requests: Email hello.eleeji@gmail.com to request access, correction, or deletion of personal data you submitted. We will verify your request (to prevent misuse) and respond within a reasonable timeframe.
  • Unsubscribe: If we ever send newsletters or promotional emails, an unsubscribe link will be included. You can also request removal by emailing hello.eleeji@gmail.com.
  • Withdrawing Consent: If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us. Note that this will not affect the lawfulness of processing before its withdrawal.

We will honor valid requests in accordance with applicable law and retain minimal records when required for legal obligations (for example, to defend against fraud or maintain accounting records).

5 Regional Privacy Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your location, you may have specific rights regarding your personal data. We comply with key global regulations, including the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by CPRA.

7. Data Storage & International Transfers

In Short: We may transfer, store, and process your information in countries other than your own.

Our systems and third-party providers may store and process data in the United States or other jurisdictions. That means your data could be transferred internationally. We use reputable providers and take contractual and technical measures to protect your data during transfer.

  • SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit.
  • Access controls and limited internal access to personal data.

We do not sell your data: We assure you that Eleeji does not sell your personal data to third parties for monetary compensation. Our sharing is limited strictly to the purposes of site operation and service delivery as outlined in this policy.

We will honor valid requests in accordance with applicable law and retain minimal records when required for legal obligations (for example, to defend against fraud or maintain accounting records).

10. Handling Social Logins

In Short: If you choose to register or log in to our Services using a social media account, we may have access to certain information about you.

Our Services may offer you the ability to register or log in using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or X logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. We will use the information we receive only for the purposes that are described in this Privacy Notice or that are otherwise made clear to you. Please note that we do not control, and are not responsible for, other uses of your personal information by your third-party social media provider. We recommend that you review their privacy notice to understand how they collect, use, and share your personal information.

11. Controls for Do-Not-Track Features

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, “we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals” or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.

12. External Links

Our site contains links to external websites (for example, brand sites, social platforms, or partner content). We do not control their privacy practices; please review third-party privacy policies before sharing personal information on those sites.

13. Updates to This Policy

In Short: Yes, we will update this notice as necessary to stay compliant with relevant laws.

We may revise this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our operations, legal requirements, or third-party services. The most recent version will be posted on this page with the “Last Updated” and “Last Reviewed” dates.
