Privacy Policy

Introduction to Data Collection

Status Raja respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how and why we process it, the legal bases we rely on, and how you can exercise your rights. Our services include displaying images, status updates, and cultural content designed for social sharing, alongside features like search, favorites, and downloads.

What Personal Data We Collect

We collect data necessary to operate and secure the service, diagnose issues, and improve performance:

• Service data: server logs, request paths, timestamps, referring URLs, and HTTP status codes.
• Device data: browser type and version, operating system, screen size, language, and approximate location derived from IP.
• Interaction data: site navigation, searches, image views, downloads, shares, and consent preferences for analytics and advertising.
• Contact data: name, email, and message content when you contact us or submit forms.
• Account data (if applicable): credentials, profile details, and preferences for future account features.

Specific Purposes for Data Collection

We process data for the following purposes:

• Operation & security: deliver pages, protect against abuse, ensure availability, and troubleshoot errors.
• Performance & analytics: measure engagement, identify broken flows, optimize content and UI, and improve load times.
• Personalization (with consent): tailor content suggestions and improve relevance without storing sensitive categories.
• Advertising (with consent): show non-intrusive ads, limit frequency, and respect your ad personalization choices.
• Communication: respond to inquiries, handle takedown requests, and provide service updates.
• Compliance: fulfill legal obligations, rights enforcement, and record-keeping.

Examples: we may log when a download fails to detect broken links, or use aggregate search queries to improve tag precision and content discovery.

Data Retention & Deletion

We retain data only as long as necessary:

• Server logs: typically 90–180 days, unless needed for ongoing security investigations.
• Analytics reports: aggregated and anonymized; raw event data is minimized and retained per vendor defaults.
• Consent records: retained to honor your preferences and demonstrate compliance.
• Contact messages: retained for 12–24 months for follow-up and audit, then deleted or anonymized.

When a retention period ends, we delete data or transform it into aggregate statistics that no longer identify individuals.

Vendor-specific retention

Analytics and advertising partners may apply their own retention timelines. We configure vendors to minimize personal data processing and to respect your consent choices. For specific vendor retention schedules, contact [email protected].

Advertising and Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements on this website. Google AdSense is an advertising service provided by Google Inc. ensuring we can continue providing free content to our users.
