Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 11, 2025
Thank you for visiting Inflation Watch (“we,” “us,” or “our”). We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website, particularly when you subscribe to our newsletter.
Who we are
Our website address is: https://www.inflationwatch.drduru.com
How We Use Your Information
We use your email address solely for the purpose of sending you our newsletter and updates related to our blog content. These may include:
- New blog post notifications
- Updates about the blog or its features
- Occasional surveys or feedback requests (optional)
We do not sell, rent, lease, or share your email address with any third party for marketing or commercial purposes.
No Spam Policy
We are committed to a strict no-spam policy. Subscribing to our newsletter means you will only receive communications directly from us, related to the content and topics covered on our blog.
You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in the footer of any newsletter email you receive from us.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Third-Party Services
We may use reputable third-party email marketing platforms (such as MailPoet, or similar services) to manage our subscriber list and deliver emails. These services are compliant with major data protection laws, including the GDPR and CAN-SPAM Act.
These third parties may process your email address solely on our behalf and only to help us send and manage our communications. They are not permitted to use your information for any other purpose.
Cookies and Analytics
Our website may use cookies and analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to improve performance and user experience. These tools may collect non-personally identifiable information such as:
- Browser type
- Operating system
- Time spent on pages
- Referring URLs
You may adjust your browser settings to disable cookies if you prefer not to share this data.
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content 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
We retain your email address in our subscriber database until you choose to unsubscribe or request removal. Once unsubscribed, your email will be promptly and permanently deleted from our active mailing list.
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on this website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or for legal or regulatory reasons. We will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of our website after such changes indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.
