This page describes the policy related to privacy and cookies for this website, dementiacarenotes.in.
Briefly:
- The only data we gather is related to the way you use the site. We keep personal data collection to a minimum and only collect data to make user experience better. Wherever feasible, this data is anonymized.
- Dementia Care Notes does not do any profiling for any targeted advertisements. No data is shared with any third party for advertising. No visitor data is used for any commercial purpose.
- The site has some embedded content (like videos) where third party entities may create cookies and collect data like they would if you had visited those sites directly. Data may be gathered by these third parties when you are logged on to some social media account and do shares and likes on our site. We have no control on how these third party service providers may use the data or change their approach; you will have to see their privacy policies.
More details about privacy and cookies are shared below, along with ways you can opt out. (Cookies are small text files placed on your device to help a site provide a better user experience.) Note that opting out of some of these may restrict how you can use parts of the site.
Data used for analyzing site performance (Analytics)
Google Analytics Opens in new window is used to understand how visitors use the site — an extremely common way of analyzing site visitor data to improve content and navigation. Analytics can show what pages you view, how you arrived at the site, and some basic information about your device. This data is NOT used for individual behavior profiling or targeted advertising. For exactly how Google collects, uses, and protects this data, see Google’s Analytics privacy page Opens in new window.
Google Analytics uses cookies. If you wish, you can opt out using Google’s own browser add-on: see how to opt out Opens in new window. You can also always delete existing cookies via your browser (see below).
Comments
New comments are closed sitewide. If you left a comment in the past that is still visible on the site and would like it removed, please contact us.
Embedded content from other websites
Pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, presentations, images). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you had visited those websites directly — they may set cookies, track your interaction with that content, and, if you’re logged into an account with them, associate that interaction with your account.
Social media sharing and “like” buttons may similarly create cookies via the third-party service you’re logged into, which may use that data for their own purposes. If you use these services, you’ve already agreed to their own privacy policies to do so — for example, anyone with a Google account (which covers YouTube) has already seen Google’s Privacy & Terms Opens in new window. Similar policies apply to Facebook and other widely used social platforms.
Some additional cookies.
Some site functionality (including social sharing and comment-subscription features, where used) is provided via the Jetpack plugin (owned by Automattic). For exact, current, feature-by-feature detail on what data each Jetpack feature uses, see Jetpack’s own privacy documentation Opens in new window — this is more reliable than anything we could summarize here, since it’s maintained directly by Jetpack as features change.
A cookie is also used to remember that you’ve already seen our cookie notice, so it isn’t shown again on every visit. This cookie lasts for 180 days, and — like any other cookie — you can delete it earlier via your browser if you wish.
Some general resources
To learn more about cookies, or to see how to manage or delete them, check your browser’s own settings or Help section (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge all document this) — this will always have the most current instructions for whichever browser you’re using.
