Privacy Policy
Last updated: 26 July 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how personal information is collected, used and safeguarded when you visit dammarkhadayat.com.np (the "Website"). The Website is owned and operated by Dammar Khadayat, based in Pokhara, Kaski, Gandaki Province, Nepal.
1. Information I Collect
When you interact with this Website, the following information may be collected:
- Contact form data — name, email address, subject and message content you voluntarily submit through the contact form.
- Analytics data — anonymised information such as pages visited, approximate geographic region, browser type and time spent on pages, collected via privacy-respecting analytics tools.
- Server logs — IP addresses, request timestamps and referring URLs, retained temporarily for security and performance monitoring.
2. How Your Information Is Used
Personal data submitted through the contact form is used solely to respond to your enquiry. It is not sold, shared with third parties or used for marketing purposes. Analytics data is used in aggregate to understand how visitors interact with the site and to improve its content and structure.
3. Cookies and Tracking
This Website does not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking technologies. If analytics software is deployed, it is configured to operate without cookies wherever possible and to anonymise IP addresses at collection time. You may disable JavaScript entirely without affecting your ability to read the site's content.
4. Third-Party Services
This Website may link to external platforms for professional and educational purposes:
- ResearchGate (researchgate.net)
- LinkedIn (linkedin.com)
- GitHub (github.com)
- Medium (medium.com)
- Facebook, Instagram, X/Twitter
Each of these platforms operates under its own privacy policy. Clicking an external link means you are leaving this Website; I am not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites.
5. Data Retention
Contact form submissions may be retained for up to 12 months to maintain a record of professional correspondence. Server logs are rotated automatically and purged within 30 days. Analytics data is retained in aggregate indefinitely, as it contains no personally identifiable information.
6. Data Security
Reasonable technical and organisational measures are in place to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration or loss. These include HTTPS encryption, regular software updates and access controls on server infrastructure. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is entirely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
7. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Request a copy of the personal data I hold about you.
- Request correction or deletion of inaccurate or outdated data.
- Withdraw consent for data processing at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, contact me at [email protected].
8. Children's Privacy
This Website is not directed at children under the age of 16. I do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has submitted personal data, please contact me immediately so it can be deleted.
9. Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was most recently revised. Continued use of the Website after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
