At Techcoinx, your privacy matters to us. We are a professional digital magazine covering technology, cryptocurrency, blockchain innovation, and related trends for readers primarily based in the United States. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, and the choices you have regarding your personal data.
By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Who We Are

What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
We only collect information that is necessary to operate our website, improve user experience, and maintain security.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on Techcoinx, we collect the information shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This helps us detect spam and protect the integrity of discussions on our platform.
If you choose to use a profile image service such as Gravatar, an anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be sent to that service to check if you are registered with them. The Gravatar privacy policy can be reviewed on their official website. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture may be visible to the public alongside your comment.

If you upload images to Techcoinx, we recommend avoiding images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract location data from images posted publicly.
