Dating by Elena (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website datingbyelena.com. This page explains what information we collect when you visit the site, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Who we are
Our website address is https://datingbyelena.com. Dating by Elena is a dating-advice magazine for men, written by Elena, a dating and relationship coach. If you have questions about this policy, please use the contact form.
What we collect and why
Contact form. When you send a message through the contact form, we receive the name, email address, and message you provide. We use this information only to read and reply to your message.
Newsletter signup. When you subscribe to the newsletter, we receive the name and email address you provide. We use this information only to send you the newsletter you asked for. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.
Comments. Comments are currently not enabled on this site, and we do not collect comment data.
Analytics and advertising. This site does not currently run analytics or advertising. If that changes, this policy will be updated.
Cookies
This site uses only the cookies needed for WordPress itself to work — for example, to keep a logged-in site administrator signed in and to remember display preferences. We do not set advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not currently use a cookie banner because no non-essential cookies are used.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (for example, videos or images from other websites). Embedded content behaves the same way as if you had visited the other website directly: it may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with it.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell or rent your personal information. Messages you send through the contact form or newsletter signup are delivered to the site administrator’s email inbox and are processed by the site’s hosting provider (Hostinger) as part of delivering the website and email. We will share your information only if required to do so by law.
How long we retain your data
Contact form messages are kept only for as long as needed to handle your request, and newsletter subscription details are kept until you unsubscribe. Server logs kept by the hosting provider are subject to the provider’s own retention practices.
What rights you have over your data
You can ask us to send you a copy of the personal information we hold about you, or to delete it, by using the contact form. Where the law provides them, you also have the right to ask for correction, restriction, or portability of your data, and to object to how it is used.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the site changes — for example, if we add analytics, comments, or advertising. The “last updated” date at the top of this page will change whenever we do.
