Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2025
Last Updated: January 1, 2025

At Maxgas Kenya, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the measures we take to safeguard your data when you use our website or interact with our services.


Who We Are

Our official website address is: https://maxgaskenya.com.
Maxgas Kenya is a trusted provider of clean, safe, and reliable LPG energy solutions for homes and businesses across Kenya.


Comments

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

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

Once your comment is approved, your profile picture (if any) becomes visible to the public in the context of your comment.


Media

If you upload images to our website, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images posted on the site.


Cookies

Our website uses cookies to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies are small files stored on your device that help remember your preferences and improve site performance.

  • If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to save your name, email, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you don’t have to re-enter your details when leaving another comment. These cookies last for one year.
  • If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted once you close your browser.
  • When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login details and display preferences.
    • Login cookies last for two days.
    • Screen options cookies last for one year.
    • If you select “Remember Me,” your login will remain active for two weeks.
    • Logging out removes all login cookies.
  • If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie (containing no personal data) is stored in your browser. It simply indicates the post ID of the article and expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you visited those websites directly.

These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — especially if you have an account and are logged in to that external website.


Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
We do not sell or trade personal data. Data may only be shared with trusted service providers (such as security or technical support partners) who help maintain and protect our site.


How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: When you leave a comment, both the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in moderation.
  • Registered Users: If you register on our website, we store the personal information provided in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except for your username). Website administrators can also view and edit that information as needed.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this website or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you — except for information we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

To make such a request, please contact us at:
📧 privacy@maxgaskenya.com


Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to maintain website integrity and prevent abuse.
