This Privacy Policy explains what information Maxi Movie Blog (maximovieblog.com) collects when you visit, and how it is used. We aim to collect no more than is necessary to run the site.
Who We Are
Our website address is: https://maximovieblog.com. Maxi Movie Blog is an independent film review website.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics (via the MonsterInsights plugin) to understand how visitors use the site — for example, which pages are popular and how people arrive here. This data is aggregated and anonymized where possible and is not used to personally identify you.
Comments
Where comments are enabled, we collect the data shown in the comment form, plus the commenter’s IP address and browser user agent string, to help detect spam. An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be checked against the Gravatar service to see if you use it; the Gravatar service’s own privacy policy applies to that check.
Embedded Content
Film pages on this site embed trailers and clips from YouTube. Embedded YouTube videos may set their own cookies and collect data about your interaction in the same way as if you visited YouTube directly. We encourage you to review YouTube’s own privacy policy for details.
Contact Forms and Email
If you contact us by email or through a form on this site, we retain that correspondence only to respond to your message and do not share it with third parties except as needed to provide the service (for example, our email or form provider).
Who We Share Data With
We do not sell visitor data. Data may be shared with the service providers that help run the site (our hosting provider, analytics provider, and form/email provider), solely to operate those services.
How Long We Retain Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically. Contact messages are retained as long as reasonably needed to address your inquiry.
Your Rights
If you have left a comment or contacted us, you can request to see any personal data we hold about you, or ask us to erase it, subject to legal or legitimate operational reasons for retaining it. To make such a request, use the details on our Contact page.
Movie Data
Film metadata shown on this site is sourced from The Movie Database (TMDB). This site is not endorsed, certified, or otherwise approved by TMDB.
