Welcome to LoveLinkage.com, where meaningful connections are our passion. We’re here to nurture trust, encourage open communication, and help you build stronger, more fulfilling relationships—whether you’re seeking new love, rekindling a spark, or strengthening the bond you already have.

This page outlines how we handle your data when you interact with our website. Your privacy matters to us, and we’re committed to keeping your personal information secure, respectful, and transparent.


Comments

When you leave a comment on LoveLinkage.com, we collect the information you enter into the comment form, along with your IP address and browser details. This helps us detect and prevent spam.

If you use Gravatar, an anonymized string (a hash) of your email may be sent to their service to check if you have a linked profile. You can review their privacy policy here: Gravatar Privacy Policy. Once your comment is approved, your Gravatar profile picture may appear next to your comment.


Media

If you upload images to LoveLinkage.com, please avoid including location data (EXIF GPS). Other users may be able to download and extract that information from posted images.


Cookies

To improve your experience, we use cookies in the following ways:

  • When you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies—so you don’t have to re-enter them next time. These cookies last for one year.
  • When you visit the login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser supports cookies. This is deleted when you close your browser.
  • If you log in, we use cookies to store your login info and display preferences. Login cookies last two days; screen options cookies last one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login stays active for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
  • If you publish or edit a post, a cookie will store the post ID. This contains no personal data and expires after one day.

Embedded Content

Our site may include embedded content (like videos, articles, or images) from other websites. These sites may collect your data, use cookies, and track how you interact with their content—just as if you visited them directly.


Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email to help verify your identity.


How Long We Retain Your Data

Comments and their associated data are kept indefinitely to help us recognize and approve future comments automatically.

If you create an account, we store the personal details you provide in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your information at any time (except your username). Website administrators can also manage user data.


Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data. You can also ask us to erase it, unless we’re required to retain it for administrative, legal, or security reasons.


Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be reviewed using an automated spam detection tool to keep the LoveLinkage community safe and respectful.
