What we collect and how it reaches us
We collect only the information needed to operate the site, respond to you, and keep the platform secure.
- Comments you choose to post: your comment text, the name you enter, the email address you enter, and your IP address and browser user agent captured by WordPress for spam and security purposes.
- Emails you send to us: the contents of your message and your email address when you write to any serenagenovese.ae mailbox.
- Technical logs: our hosting environment and CDN keep standard server logs (such as IP address, request time, and user agent) when you visit pages. These are used to operate the service and defend against abuse.
Comments
Article comments may be available on some posts. When you submit a comment, WordPress records the data you type along with your IP address and browser user agent. This helps with manual moderation and site security. If your comment is approved, the content you provided is published on the site. We do not run automated spam filtering services on comments.
Cookies and local storage
WordPress may set functional cookies in a few cases:
• If you leave a comment, you can opt to save your name, email, and website in cookies so you do not have to re-enter them next time.
• If you are a site administrator or editor, WordPress sets session and security cookies for login and dashboard access.
Our caching/CDN layer may set cookies required to deliver pages reliably and balance load. We do not use analytics cookies and we do not run advertising trackers.
For a fuller list of cookies used on this site, see the Cookie Policy page.
Hosting, CDN, and email providers
To run this site we use service providers that host the site, cache content, and process inbound email. They may process personal data on our behalf only to provide these services. We do not sell or rent your data and we do not share it with advertisers.
Why we use this data
We use the data described above to publish content, moderate comments, respond to messages you send us, keep the site available and secure, and to diagnose and prevent fraud or abuse. Where relevant, this is based on our legitimate interests in operating an online publication and communicating with readers.
How long we keep it
• Comments and their metadata may be kept for the life of the article to preserve the discussion record, unless you ask us to remove them or we moderate them out.
• Server and CDN logs are kept for the time needed to operate and secure the service, and may be retained longer when investigating incidents.
• Emails you send to us are kept as long as needed to handle your request and maintain a record of our correspondence.

You can choose not to post comments. If you have posted a comment, you may request its removal or correction. You may also request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, object to our use of it, or ask us to delete it where applicable.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority in the place you live or work, if you believe your rights have been infringed. We would appreciate the chance to address your concerns first.
