At Alfaaz Wishes (accessible at https://www.alfaazwishes.blog/), respecting visitor privacy is a core part of how we run this website. This Privacy Policy explains what limited information is collected when you visit our pages, how cookies and advertising technologies work, and what choices you have over your data.
1. Information You Voluntarily Provide
You can read articles, switch between Hindi and English scripts, copy shayari or wishes to your clipboard, and download quote cards on Alfaaz Wishes without creating an account or submitting any personal details.
If you choose to email the Alfaaz Wishes Editorial Team directly at alfaazwishes@proton.me or use the email composer on our Contact Us page, we receive your email address, name (if shared), and the contents of your message solely to reply to your inquiry. We never sell, rent, or trade reader email addresses to third parties.
2. Log Files and Blogger Hosting
Alfaaz Wishes is hosted on Google's Blogger platform. Like standard web servers worldwide, Blogger automatically records technical log files when visitors load pages. Information inside server logs includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamps, referring and exit pages, and click counts. This technical data is not linked to personally identifiable profiles and is used for site security, traffic diagnostics, and preventing abuse.
3. Local Browser Storage and On-Page Tools
To keep your reading experience smooth without tracking you across the web, our site uses two browser-side features that run strictly on your own device:
- Theme Preference (
localStorage): When you toggle between Light Mode and Dark Mode, your browser stores a small preference setting (aw_theme) locally on your device so pages load in your chosen reading mode on your next visit. - Quote Card Image Generator & Clipboard Copy: When you click to copy text or save a quote image card, that action runs locally inside your browser using standard HTML5 Canvas and clipboard functions. Nothing you copy or download is uploaded to our servers.
4. Cookies, Google AdSense, and the DoubleClick DART Cookie
Alfaaz Wishes uses cookies (small text files stored by your browser) to remember basic site preferences, measure aggregate page performance, and support advertising that keeps our content free to read.
- Third-Party Advertising Vendors: Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to https://www.alfaazwishes.blog/ or other websites on the internet.
- Google Advertising Cookies (DART Cookie): Google's use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve relevant ads to visitors based on their visit to Alfaaz Wishes and/or other sites across the internet.
- How to Opt Out of Personalized Advertising: Visitors may opt out of personalized advertising at any time by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendor cookies used for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices.
You can also disable cookies altogether through your individual browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, or mobile browsers). Blocking cookies will not stop you from reading or copying wishes on Alfaaz Wishes.
5. Analytics and Performance Measurement
We may use Google Search Console and Google Analytics to understand aggregate search queries, popular collections, device screen sizes, and page-load health. Analytics tools process anonymized or pseudonymous traffic patterns so we know which festival or shayari topics readers find helpful.
6. Third-Party Links and Social Sharing
Our quote cards include an optional button to share lines directly via WhatsApp (api.whatsapp.com), and articles may occasionally reference external public resources. Clicking an external link opens that third-party service under its own privacy policy and terms. Alfaaz Wishes has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, data practices on external websites or messaging apps.
7. Your Privacy Rights (India DPDP Act, GDPR, and CCPA)
Depending on where you live, including under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act), the European Economic Area / UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), you have the right to:
- Ask whether we hold any personal correspondence sent by you and request a copy of it.
- Request correction or deletion of any email correspondence you have sent to our inbox.
- Withdraw consent for personalized cookies via browser controls or Google's Ad Settings link above.
To exercise any data request regarding correspondence sent to us, email alfaazwishes@proton.me and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
8. Children's Privacy
Alfaaz Wishes publishes family-safe poetry and greeting messages suitable for general audiences, but we do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If a parent or guardian believes a child has sent personal details to our contact email, please write to alfaazwishes@proton.me and we will delete those records immediately.
9. Updates to This Privacy Policy and Contact Details
We may revise this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect technical updates, legal requirements, or new site features. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date at the top.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact the Alfaaz Wishes Editorial Team at alfaazwishes@proton.me.
