Overview
PawDraft (pawdraft.com) takes visitor privacy seriously. This policy explains what data is collected when you visit the site, the purposes and legal bases for processing it, who it may be shared with, how long it is kept, and how you can exercise your rights. You do not need an account or any personal information to read our content.
Data We Collect
Collected automatically: When you visit the site, technical data such as IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring page, pages viewed and visit duration is recorded by server logs and analytics tools. This data is used for aggregate statistics, not to identify you individually.
Provided by you: The name, email address and message you enter when commenting are processed only to publish the comment and prevent abuse. If you submit a contact form, we process only what is needed to reply. If you subscribe to the newsletter, your address is stored solely for sending it, and every email contains an unsubscribe link.
Purposes of Processing
- Improving site content and user experience
- Diagnosing technical issues, maintaining security and preventing abuse
- Measuring site performance and content interest through anonymous statistics
- Responding to comments and contact requests
- Meeting legal obligations
Legal Basis
Personal data is processed under the GDPR and, for visitors in Türkiye, Law No. 6698 (KVKK), on the bases of legitimate interest (site security, technical operation), consent (newsletter, optional cookies) and legal obligation.
Cookies
This site uses cookies for session management, remembering your preferences, analytics and advertising. Cookie categories, durations and management options are described in detail in our Cookie Policy.
Advertising and Google AdSense
Third-party advertising technologies may be used on this site. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's advertising cookies enable it to show you ads relevant to your interests.
You can opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings, and opt out of other third-party vendors' cookies at www.aboutads.info.
Analytics
We may use analytics tools such as Google Analytics to understand site traffic. These tools produce aggregated, anonymized usage data, set their own cookies and are governed by their own privacy policies.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent or share your personal data for marketing. Data may be shared only in three cases: with infrastructure providers (hosting, analytics, advertising) to the extent technically necessary; when required by law or an official request; or when strictly necessary to protect our rights.
Data Retention
Server logs and technical records are automatically deleted or anonymized after a reasonable period. Comment data is kept for as long as the comment stays published, contact records until your request is resolved, and newsletter addresses for the duration of your subscription. Data whose purpose has lapsed is deleted.
Data Security
Data is transmitted over SSL/TLS-encrypted connections and server access is restricted by authorization. No transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we apply reasonable technical and organizational safeguards.
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child's data has been processed, let us know and we will delete it immediately.
Your Rights
Under the GDPR and KVKK Article 11 you have the right to learn whether your data is processed, request information, correction or deletion, object to processing, and learn the third parties your data has been transferred to. Send requests to info@pawdraft.com; we respond within 30 days at the latest.
Changes
This policy may be updated as legislation or our services change. The current version, with its update date, is always published on this page.
