Your privacy is critically important to us.
It is Hackers Hub’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. This Privacy Policy applies to https://hackers-hub.com.
We are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through the Website. This policy explains what information may be collected, how we use it, and under what circumstances we may disclose it to third parties.
This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through the Website and not to information collected from other sources.
This Privacy Policy, together with the Terms and Conditions posted on our Website, set forth the general rules and policies governing your use of our Website. Depending on your activities, you may be required to agree to additional terms.
1. Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Hackers Hub collects non-personally-identifying information such as browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request.
Our purpose is to better understand how visitors use our website. From time to time, we may release aggregated information, e.g., reports on usage trends.
Hackers Hub also collects potentially personally-identifying information such as IP addresses for logged-in users and for users leaving comments.
2. Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Some visitors to Hackers Hub choose to interact with us in ways that require us to collect personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information depends on the interaction—for example, when signing up for a newsletter or leaving a comment.
3. Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you’re using it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After comment approval, your profile picture may be visible in the context of your comment.
4. Media
If you upload images, you should avoid uploading ones with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract this data.
5. Cookies
To enrich your experience, Hackers Hub uses “Cookies”, similar technologies, and third-party services to display personalized content and store preferences.
- If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies.
- If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine browser support.
- Login cookies last two days; screen preference cookies last a year. Selecting “Remember Me” extends login cookies for two weeks.
- Editing or publishing an article will store an additional cookie with no personal data, expiring in 1 day.
Visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed should set their browsers to refuse them, noting that certain features may not function properly.
By continuing to use our website without changing your settings, you consent to our use of cookies.
6. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles may include embedded content (videos, images, articles, etc.). This behaves the same as visiting those websites directly.
These third-party sites may collect data, use cookies, embed tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content.
7. Advertisements
Ads on Hackers Hub may be delivered by advertising partners who may use cookies to compile usage data and serve personalized ads. This Privacy Policy covers Hackers Hub’s use of cookies, not advertisers’ practices.
8. Google AdWords Remarketing
https://hackers-hub.com may use remarketing services (e.g., Google Ads) to target past visitors. This may involve showing ads on Google Search or Display Network to users who didn’t complete actions (e.g., filling a form).
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve these ads based on past visits.
You can manage your preferences on the Google Ad Preferences page or opt out using the Google browser plugin.
9. Affiliate Disclosure
Hackers Hub may use affiliate links and earn commissions from them. This does not affect your purchases or the price you pay.
10. Protection of Personally-Identifying Information
We disclose personally-identifying information only to employees, contractors, or affiliated organizations that need it to process or provide services, and who have agreed not to disclose it.
Some may be located outside your country. By using Hackers Hub, you consent to such transfers.
We do not sell or rent personal data. We may disclose information if legally required (e.g., court order), or when disclosure is necessary to protect rights, property, or safety.
We may use your email to communicate about new features, request feedback, or update you about the website.
We take all reasonably necessary steps to protect against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of personal data.
11. Aggregated Statistics
Hackers Hub may collect and display non-personal usage statistics publicly or share them with others. This data will not identify individuals.
12. Data Retention
If you leave a comment, it and its metadata are retained indefinitely for recognition and approval of future comments.
If you register, we store your personal profile information. You can see, edit, or delete it (except your username). Admins can also edit that data.
13. Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request:
- An exported file of your personal data
- Erasure of any personal data we hold about you
This excludes data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
14. Where Your Data is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked by an automated spam detection service.
15. Privacy Policy Changes
Hackers Hub may update this Privacy Policy at any time. We encourage users to check this page periodically.
Your continued use of our website after any changes constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
