Who We Are

At Ryuru, we are dedicated to providing our visitors with a seamless and engaging online experience. Our website, https://ryuru.com, serves as a platform for sharing valuable insights and fostering a community of informed individuals. We prioritize user privacy and data security, ensuring that your interactions with us are both safe and respectful. Our commitment to excellence drives us to continuously improve our services and content for our valued users.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data displayed in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information helps us detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can review the Gravatar service’s privacy policy here: Gravatar Privacy Policy. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, please refrain from including images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract any location data from images posted on our site.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience. This means you won’t have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

When you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we will set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Analytics

We use Simple Analytics to help us understand how visitors use our website. Simple Analytics provides us with aggregated, privacy-friendly insights without using cookies or tracking personal data. Unlike traditional analytics services, Simple Analytics does not collect any personally identifiable information (PII), such as IP addresses or unique user IDs.

The data collected may include:

  • Referring website
  • Pages visited
  • Duration of visit
  • Browser type
  • Device type
  • Country (inferred from anonymized data)

This information helps us improve our content and user experience, while respecting your privacy. For more information, you can view Simple Analytics’ Privacy Policy.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). This embedded content behaves as if you have visited the other website directly.

These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

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

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and automatically approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except for their username). Website administrators also have access to edit this information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request the deletion of any personal data we hold about you, excluding data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
