Who We Are

SayDat Anynomously is a platform designed to give people a safe space to express thoughts and experiences that may be difficult to share openly. Our website address is: https://saydatanynomously.com.

Protecting your privacy and allowing you to speak freely are central to our mission.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the information entered in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser details. This information helps us prevent spam and maintain a safe environment.

If you provide an email address, an anonymized version of it (called a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check whether you use it. You can review Gravatar’s privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, any associated profile image may be publicly visible alongside your comment.

Our Commitment to Anonymity

SayDat Anynomously is built to help people speak openly without fear of personal or social consequences. We do not require users to publicly share their real names, and we encourage thoughtful, anonymous expression throughout the platform.

While certain technical data may be collected for security, moderation, and site functionality, we do not use this information to identify users publicly or to reveal identities to other users. Your words matter more than who you are, and we are committed to maintaining a space where honest conversations can happen with minimal personal exposure.

Please note that no online platform can guarantee absolute anonymity. We encourage users to avoid sharing personal or identifying information within their posts or comments if they wish to remain anonymous.

Media

If you upload images to the website, we strongly recommend removing any embedded location data (EXIF GPS) beforehand. Images shared publicly can be downloaded by others, and location data may be extracted from those files.

Cookies

If you choose to leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for convenience only and allow you to avoid re-entering your details in the future. They remain active for one year.

When you visit the login page, a temporary cookie is set to check whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal information and is removed when you close your browser.

If you log in, cookies are used to store your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen preference cookies remain for one year. Selecting “Remember Me” will keep you logged in for two weeks. Logging out clears all login cookies.

If you edit or publish a post, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. This cookie does not contain personal data and expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Some articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or posts from other websites. Embedded content behaves the same way as if you visited the external website directly.

These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, apply additional tracking, and monitor how you interact with their content—especially if you are logged into their platform.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email as a security measure.

How Long We Retain Your Data

Comments and their related metadata are stored indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them for moderation.

If you register for an account (if available), the personal information you provide is stored in your user profile. You may view, update, or delete your personal information at any time, except for your username. Site administrators can also access and manage this information as needed.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments on the site, you may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. You may also request that we delete your personal information.

Please note that some data may be retained when required for legal, administrative, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be processed through automated spam detection services to help protect the site and its users.
