Who We Are
Our website address is: https://MindfulYogaWay.com
At MindfulYogaWay.com, our mission is to help you slow down, breathe deeply, and live with intention—on and off the mat. That mindful approach extends to how we handle your personal information. Here’s how we collect, use, and protect your data when you interact with our site.
Comments
When you leave a comment on MindfulYogaWay.com, we gather the details you share, along with your IP address and browser information. This helps us keep the conversation space positive and free from spam.
We may send a hashed (anonymized) version of your email to the Gravatar service to see if you use it. You can read their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. If your comment is approved, your profile picture may appear alongside it.
Media
If you upload images, please ensure they don’t contain location data (EXIF GPS). Otherwise, someone could download them and see exactly where they were taken—something you might wish to keep private.
Cookies
- Leaving a comment? You can choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies for next time—they’ll stay for one year.
- Visiting our login page? We set a temporary cookie to see if your browser accepts cookies. It disappears when you close your browser.
- Logging in? We’ll set cookies to remember your login and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days; display preference cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will remain for two weeks. Logging out clears these cookies.
- Editing or publishing content? A one-day cookie will store the post ID—without any personal information.
Embedded Content from Other Sites
Some posts may include embedded videos, images, or articles from other websites. Engaging with them is like visiting that site directly, and they may collect data or track your activity if you’re logged in there.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email—just for security purposes.
How Long We Keep Your Data
We keep comments and related metadata indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up messages quickly.
If you register on MindfulYogaWay.com, your personal information is stored in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your details at any time—except your username. Website administrators can also view and update this information.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you’ve left a comment or created an account, you can request an exported file of your personal data—or ask us to delete it (unless we’re required to keep it for legal or administrative reasons).
Where Your Data Goes
We use automated spam detection tools to help keep the space peaceful and free of distractions—like a digital mindfulness filter.
