Who am I?
Welcome to yourlocaltekneard.com, your friendly neighborhood tech geek corner, run by yours truly—the one and only site owner. Yup, it’s just me here, managing everything from the code to the cookies. No big corporations, no faceless teams, just one person trying to share tech, knowledge, and maybe a little chaos. You got questions? Cool.
Comments
Comments
When you leave a comment, here’s the deal: I collect the stuff you type in the form (duh), along with your IP address and browser info to keep spammy bots at bay. If you’re rocking a Gravatar, your mysterious profile pic might pop up next to your comment. Don’t like it? Then don’t comment, simple as that.
Media
Uploading images to the site? Awesome—but keep it clean and don’t leave location data (EXIF GPS) attached unless you want the internet knowing where you live. Trust me, no one wants that level of exposure.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
Yeah, we use cookies here. They’re for your convenience so you don’t have to keep typing your info every time you leave a comment or log in.
Comment cookies last a year.
Login cookies stick around for two days unless you click “Remember Me,” then they’ll linger for two weeks.
Edit or publish something? A post ID cookie will hang out for a day.
No cookie hoarding—everything has an expiration date.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with
Data Sharing
Relax, I don’t sell your data to shady third parties. If you request a password reset, your IP will tag along in the email. That’s about as exciting as it gets here.
How long we retain your data
How Long I Keep Your Stuff
Registered user info? If you ever sign up, you can edit or delete your profile info anytime (except your username, because rules). I, as the almighty admin, can also tweak your details if necessary.
Comments and their metadata? They hang out indefinitely because… efficiency.
What rights you have over your data
Your Rights
Want to know what data I have on you? Cool, you can request an export of everything I’ve got. Want it erased? No problem—unless I need to keep it for legal, security, or admin reasons. Some stuff just can’t be deleted.
But be aware… I’m new at this, so you could be waiting for a long time.
Where your data is sent
Your comments might go through an automated spam-checking service because, let’s face it, no one likes spam. Aside from that, your data’s safe with me and my little operation.
In Short…
I’m just one person running this site, keeping things simple and transparent. I don’t sell your data, track you unnecessarily, or let shady stuff go down. If you’ve got questions or concerns, just reach out—because I’m literally the only one here.
