This privacy policy was last updated on 15 January 2026. We reserve the right to revise and amend this policy whenever necessary, so we encourage our users to check this page regularly for any changes.
In this policy, the following terms shall carry the following meanings: 'SkinsGuide' or 'Site' refers to our website, 'skinsguide.com'. 'We', 'Our', and 'Us' refer to SkinsGuide, while 'You' and 'User' refer to the person accessing and using the website.
Cookies are small files stored on your device that hold data specific to our website. They help improve your browsing experience by remembering your preferences. By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may affect how the website functions.
When users leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email (a hash) may be sent to services such as Gravatar to check whether you have an associated profile picture.
If you upload images or other media to the website, take care when uploading files that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as others may be able to extract it. We recommend stripping any metadata before uploading. We are not responsible for any data leakage arising from user-uploaded content.
If you leave a comment or sign in, your name, email, and website may be saved in cookies. These exist for your convenience so you don't have to re-enter the same details. These cookies last for a year. We also use cookies to gather analytical data that helps us improve the user experience.
Articles on SkinsGuide may include embedded content (for example videos, charts, or images). Such content from other sites behaves exactly as if you had visited that other site directly. These sites may collect data, set cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
We use third-party services to collect data about how users interact with SkinsGuide. This helps us understand user behavior, refine our content, and enhance the overall experience. The data collected includes pages visited, time spent, device type, and approximate location.
We retain user data for varying periods depending on its type. Comment data is retained indefinitely. For registered users, the personal information in their profiles is kept until they choose to delete their account. Even then, administrative logs and backups may be retained.
If you hold an account or have left comments on SkinsGuide, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any of your personal data. This excludes data we are obliged to retain for legal, administrative, or security purposes.
We may share anonymized user data with trusted third parties for analytics, marketing, or service-improvement purposes. Any comment data may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
For any concerns, questions, or data-related requests, users can contact us through the channels listed on our website. We aim to respond promptly and to address any concerns you may have.
Your use of SkinsGuide is also governed by our Terms of Service. We encourage users to familiarize themselves with these terms to understand their rights and obligations while using the website.
