At BrandsVila, we value your privacy and are committed to handling your personal information responsibly. This policy explains how your data is collected, used, and protected on our site, your one-stop destination for premium USA/UK imported products

1. Who We Are

Our website address is: https://brandsvila.com

2. Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect the information provided in the form, along with the IP address and browser user agent for spam detection purposes.
An anonymized hash of your email may be sent to Gravatar to check for usage. Gravatar’s privacy policy is here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture may appear alongside it.

3. Media

Please refrain from uploading images containing embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can access and extract such metadata from any image posted on the website.

4. Cookies

Our website uses cookies to enhance your experience:

• Comment Cookies: When commenting, you may choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience—valid for one year.
• Login Cookies: Signing in sets temporary cookies to check browser compatibility (deleted when closed). Additional cookies for login status (2 days) and display preferences (1 year) are set. Choosing “Remember Me” extends login for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
• Post-Edit Cookies: If you edit or publish an article, a cookie noting the post ID is created for one day—no personal data included.

5. Embedded Content

Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). These behave as if you visited the source website; such content may collect data, use cookies, and monitor interactions—especially if you’re logged in to those platforms.

6. Data Sharing

When you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email brandsvila.com.

7. Data Retention

• Comments: Stored indefinitely so that follow-up comments are automatically recognized and approved.
• User Profiles: Registered users’ personal details are stored in their profiles and can be viewed, edited, or deleted at any time (excluding username changes). Administrators also have access to this data.

8. Your Rights

If you have an account or have left comments, you can request:

• An exported copy of all personal data we hold about you.
• Erasure of your personal data (except where retention is required for legal or security reasons)

9. Data Transfer

Visitor comments may be processed through an automated spam detection service brandsvila.com.
