Who we are

Oh Be Jay is a career advice website operated by Aliyyah Camp.

Our website address is: https://www.ohbejay.com

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit or interact with this website.


Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.

After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.


Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website may be able to download and extract any location data from images on the site.


Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit our login page (if applicable), a temporary cookie may be set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

If you log in, we may set cookies to save your login information and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen preference cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login may persist for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies.

If you edit or publish an article (for users with appropriate permissions), an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.


Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or articles).

Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

These providers only receive the information necessary to perform their function and are required to protect your data.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to allow automatic approval of follow-up comments.

For users who register on the site (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
