Privacy

Effective Date: 17 Feb 2024

Short Version

Hey there! Welcome to Kanchalonka. Just so you know, it’s just me here behind the scenes, no big company or team. And guess what? You’ll soon be able to comment on posts and share your thoughts directly. It’s all about keeping things simple and engaging.

Here’s the Lowdown on Privacy:

Google Analytics: I use Google Analytics to understand what you like most about Kanchalonka, but with a privacy-first twist. Your data’s anonymized, so you’re just a number in a very respectful way. Not keen on being part of the stats? No worries. You can block Google Analytics with browser plugins for Chrome and Firefox, or use DuckDuckGo to keep those trackers at bay.

Commenting: Dropping a comment? Awesome! You might leave your name or email, but that’s just between you and me — so you can be part of the Kanchalonka community. Your details are just for the comments, nothing sneaky.

Contacting Me:

Got questions or just want to chat? Since it’s just me, I’m keeping my contact details a bit hush-hush for privacy. But know that this privacy note is straight from the heart — no fluff, just facts.

So there you have it. Enjoy Kanchalonka, dive into the comments, and let’s make this space a cool spot to share and learn together. It’s just me here, doing my best to keep things interesting and respectful for you.
