Privacy Policy

Who I Am My name is Khoa Vo, and this is my professional portfolio. My website address is: https://khoavo.myds.me.

Comments When you leave a comment on this site, I collect the data shown in the comments form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you use it. You can review the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible alongside your comment.

Media If you upload images to this site, please ensure you strip any embedded location data (EXIF GPS) first. Other visitors to the website can download and extract this location data from hosted images.

Cookies

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience, so you don’t have to re-enter them next time. These cookies last for one year.
  • Login: Visiting the login page sets a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. Logging in sets cookies to save your login info (lasts 2 days) and screen preferences (lasts 1 year). Selecting “Remember Me” keeps you logged in for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.
  • Publishing: Editing or publishing an article sets an additional cookie indicating the post ID of that article. It contains no personal data and expires after 1 day.

Embedded Content Articles and project pages on this site may feature embedded content (such as videos, images, or interactive media) from other websites. This content behaves exactly as if you visited the source website.

These external sites may collect your data, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content—especially if you are logged into an account on their platform.

Data Sharing & Routing Your data is not sold to third parties. However, if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. Additionally, visitor comments may be routed through an automated spam detection service.

Data Retention

  • Comments: Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely. This allows the site to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
  • Registered Users: If you register an account, your provided personal information is stored in your user profile. You can see, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except your username). As the site administrator, I can also view and edit that information.

Your Data Rights If you have an account or have left comments on this site, you can request an exported file of the personal data held about you. You can also request that I erase any personal data I hold about you. Please note that this excludes any data I am legally, administratively, or securely obliged to retain.
