Welcome to miftahrahman.com — the personal blog of Miftah Rahman. Your privacy is very important here (just like tea breaks and Wi-Fi). This Privacy Policy outlines how your data is collected, used, and protected while you roam around this cozy corner of the internet.

1. Who We Are

This site is owned and managed by Miftah Rahman, a traveler, storyteller, and occasional overthinker. This blog is a personal space to share thoughts, opinions, travel tales, and life’s beautiful randomness.

2. Information We Collect

We collect two types of data:

a. Voluntary Information:

When you:

• Subscribe to the newsletter
• Leave a comment
• Fill out a contact form
  We may ask for your name, email address, and any witty thoughts you choose to share.

b. Automatic Data:

When you visit the site, some data is collected automatically, such as:

• Your IP address
• Browser type
• Device type
• Pages visited
• Referring URLs

This helps us understand what’s working and what needs a little more digital love.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your data to:

• Respond to your messages or comments
• Send you blog updates (only if you subscribe!)
• Improve website content and user experience
• Prevent spam and ensure site security
  Don’t worry — we don’t believe in selling your data or spamming your inbox with pointless emails. Pinky promise.

4. Cookies

Yes, we use cookies (unfortunately, not the chocolate chip kind). These help us:

• Remember your preferences
• Track site performance
• Make your next visit smoother
  You can control cookies in your browser settings if you’re feeling tech-savvy.

5. Third-Party Tools

We may use third-party services like:

• Google Analytics (for basic traffic stats)
• Email Marketing Platforms (for newsletter delivery)
  These tools may collect information in accordance with their own privacy policies. But don’t worry — we choose trusted platforms only.

6. Comments

When you leave a comment:

• Your IP address and browser details are logged (for spam prevention)
• You may choose to share your name or website link — totally optional
  Please be kind and respectful; trolls will be gently redirected to the nearest bridge.

7. Data Security

We do our best to keep your information secure. This website is hosted on a trusted platform with standard security measures in place. However, no system is ever 100% secure (except maybe your grandma’s cookie jar).

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Request correction or deletion
• Unsubscribe at any time (no hard feelings)

Just email hello@miftahrahman.com and we’ll help you out.

9. Children’s Privacy

This site isn’t intended for children under 13. If you’re younger than that, please come back when you’re older — and maybe bring snacks.

10. Updates to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated occasionally. If something major changes, we’ll let you know — probably not with fireworks, but definitely with a notification.

11. Contact

Got questions? Suggestions? Or want to say hi?
Email: hello@miftahrahman.com
We reply faster if you include a cat meme (just saying).

Thanks for visiting miftahrahman.com! May your browsing be smooth and your cookies never expire.
