Who We Are
This Privacy Policy explains what information Accounting12 collects when you visit accounting12.site, how we use it, and the choices you have. Accounting12 is run from Sarlahi, Nepal, and you can reach us at meghrajsahani9900@gmail.com.
In this policy, “Accounting12”, “we”, “us” and “our” mean accounting12.site and the people who run it. “You” means anyone who visits the site.
We collect as little as possible: you can read the whole site without an account or sharing any personal details. We only receive personal information when you leave a comment or contact us. WordPress, our web host and our advertising partner, Google AdSense, also collect limited technical data automatically.
By using Accounting12, you agree to this Privacy Policy. Where the law requires your consent for cookies or personalized ads, we ask for it separately through a consent message. You can change your choice at any time.
Information We Collect
We collect only the details you choose to share with us, plus a small amount of technical data that is collected automatically.
Information you give us
- Comments: when you comment on a post, we collect your name, email address and comment, plus a website address if you choose to add one. Your email address is never shown publicly.
- Emails and phone calls: if you email or call us, we receive your email address or phone number and anything you decide to tell us.
Information collected automatically
- Comment security data: when you comment, WordPress (the software that runs our site) also records your IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam.
- Gravatar: WordPress may turn your email address into a scrambled code (a hash) and check it with Gravatar, a profile picture service run by Automattic. If you have a Gravatar picture, it appears next to your approved comment. See Automattic’s privacy policy for details.
- Server logs: like most websites, our web host may keep standard log files. These can include your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit and the date and time of your visit.
- Advertising data: Google and its partners use cookies to collect information such as your IP address, device and browser details, and the pages you view. The Google AdSense section below explains this in detail.
We never ask for sensitive information such as bank or card details, government ID numbers or health information.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information only to run the site, reply to you, keep the site safe and show the ads that keep it free.
- To publish and manage your comments, and to approve your later comments automatically
- To reply to your comments, emails and calls
- To detect and block spam, abuse and security threats
- To show ads through Google AdSense, which pays for running the site
- To keep the site working properly and fix technical problems
- To follow the law and respond to lawful requests from authorities
Legal bases for visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland
If you visit from the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we rely on these legal bases:
- Consent: for comments you choose to post, comment details you choose to save in your browser, and advertising cookies where the law requires consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
- Legitimate interests: for spam prevention, site security, replying to your messages and keeping the site running. We only rely on this when it does not override your rights.
- Legal obligation: when we must keep or share information to follow the law.
Cookies
Accounting12 uses cookies for two things: remembering your comment details and showing ads through Google AdSense. Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser.
| Cookie type | Set by | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Comment cookies | Accounting12 (WordPress) | Remember your name, email and website if you tick the box to save them when you comment | 1 year |
| Advertising cookies | Google and its ad partners | Show ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure ad performance, prevent fraud and, where allowed, personalize ads | Varies by cookie (details) |
| Consent cookies | Google’s consent message | Remember the privacy choices you make in our consent message | Varies by cookie |
Advertising partners may also use web beacons (tiny invisible images) and device identifiers for the same purposes.
How to control cookies
You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings, usually under Privacy or Security. Most browsers let you refuse all cookies, refuse only third-party cookies or clear cookies when you close the browser.
If you block cookies, the site will still work. You may need to re-enter your details when commenting, and ads may be less relevant to you.
Google AdSense and Advertising Cookies
We use Google AdSense to show ads on Accounting12. Google is a third-party vendor, and it uses cookies to decide which ads to show you.
- Google and other third-party vendors use cookies to show you ads based on your past visits to this website and to other websites.
- These advertising cookies let Google and its partners choose ads for you based on your visits to Accounting12 and other sites across the internet.
- You can turn off personalized ads from Google at any time in Google Ads Settings. To opt out of personalized ads from many other vendors, visit www.aboutads.info.
If you turn off personalized ads, you will still see ads, but they will be less related to your interests. Even then, Google may use cookies to limit how often you see an ad, count views and clicks, and fight fraud.
To learn how Google collects and uses data on websites like ours, read How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. You can also read the full Google Privacy Policy.
Other Ad Vendors and How to Opt Out
Besides Google, other certified ad networks and vendors may show ads on our site through AdSense. These vendors may set their own cookies or use similar technology to show ads and measure how they perform. Each vendor follows its own privacy policy, which this policy does not cover.
You can opt out of personalized ads from these vendors in several ways:
- Google: turn off ad personalization in Google Ads Settings.
- Many other ad vendors: use the Digital Advertising Alliance tool at www.aboutads.info/choices, or visit the Network Advertising Initiative.
- Vendors in Europe: use www.youronlinechoices.eu.
- Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland: our consent message lists the ad vendors that may use your data. You can accept or refuse each one, and change your choices later through the privacy settings link on our site.
Opt-outs are usually saved as cookies, so you may need to repeat them on each browser and device, or after clearing your cookies.
Analytics
We do not use Google Analytics or any other analytics or visitor tracking tool on Accounting12. If we add one in the future, we will update this policy to explain what it collects and how you can opt out.
How We Share Information
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information for money. We share it only in these situations:
- Public comments: your name, comment and website (if you add one) appear publicly next to your comment. Your email address and IP address are never shown.
- Service providers: our web host stores the site and its data. WordPress services, such as Gravatar and spam filtering, may also process comment data as described above.
- Advertising partners: Google and its partners receive the technical data described in the Google AdSense section when ads load on our pages.
- Legal reasons: we may share information when the law requires it, or to protect our rights, our visitors or the public from harm or fraud.
- Change of ownership: if Accounting12 is sold or transferred, the information we hold may pass to the new owner as part of that transfer.
Data Retention and Security
We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes in this policy.
| Information | How long we keep it |
|---|---|
| Comments and their details (name, email, IP address) | As long as the comment stays on the site, so we can recognize and approve your later comments. You can ask us to delete them at any time. |
| Emails and messages you send us | As long as we need them to reply and handle any follow-up |
| Comment cookies in your browser | 1 year, unless you delete them sooner |
| Advertising data | Kept by Google under its own rules, explained in the Google Privacy Policy |
| Server logs | A limited period set by our web host, for security |
We protect your information with reasonable safeguards. Our site uses HTTPS encryption, and we keep WordPress, our theme and our plugins up to date. Only authorized people can access the site’s admin area.
No website is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you think your information has been misused, please contact us right away.
Your Privacy Rights
You can ask us at any time to see, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, including your comments. Email us at meghrajsahani9900@gmail.com and we will reply within 30 days. We may first ask you to confirm your identity, for example by emailing from the address you used to comment.
Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland
Under the GDPR, the UK GDPR and Swiss data protection law, you have the right to:
- access your personal data and get a copy of it
- correct data that is wrong or incomplete
- have your data deleted
- restrict or object to how we use your data
- receive your data in a portable format
- withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting earlier use
- complain to your local data protection authority
Visitors in the United States
Residents of California and several other US states may have the right to know what personal information we collect, get a copy of it, correct it and delete it. You may also have the right to opt out of targeted advertising and of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We will never treat you differently for using these rights.
Some of these laws may treat Google’s advertising cookies as a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. You can opt out through Google Ads Settings and the other tools listed above, by blocking cookies in your browser, or by contacting us.
Visitors in Nepal and other countries
We respect the privacy rights you have under the laws of your country, including the laws of Nepal. Contact us to use any of the rights described in this policy.
Children’s Privacy
Accounting12 is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. In the EEA, we also do not knowingly collect data from anyone below the age of digital consent in their country, which ranges from 13 to 16.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has left a comment or sent us personal information, please contact us. We will delete it promptly.
Links, Do Not Track and International Transfers
Links to other websites
Our articles may link to other websites. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, so please read their privacy policies before sharing any information with them.
Do Not Track signals
Some browsers can send a “Do Not Track” signal to websites. There is no common standard for how sites should respond, so Accounting12 does not currently respond to these signals. You can still control cookies and personalized ads using the options in this policy.
International data transfers
We are based in Nepal, but our web host and Google may store and process data in other countries, including the United States. Data protection laws there may differ from those where you live. Where the law requires it, these transfers are protected by legal safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our practices, tools or the law change. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. For major changes, such as adding a new tracking tool, we will also post a notice on the site.
