This privacy policy explains what information VirtualEdge (virtualizationguide.blogspot.com) collects when you visit, how it is used, and the choices you have. If you have a question about it, use the contact page.
Who runs this site
VirtualEdge is run by an independent publisher based in the United Kingdom, who is the data controller for the information this site collects. You can contact the publisher through the contact page.
The site is hosted on Google's Blogger platform. Information that Blogger collects to run the platform is covered by the Google Privacy Policy.
Information we collect
Information you give us
- Contact form. If you use the contact form, it sends your name, email address and message to the site owner by email. We use these only to reply to you. We do not add you to a mailing list or share your details.
- Comments. If comments are open and you leave one, Blogger shows your comment and the name or profile you comment with. Blogger and Google handle comment data under the Google Privacy Policy.
Information collected automatically
- Analytics. This site uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use it, for example which pages are read and how visitors arrive. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technology and collects data such as pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type. We use this data in aggregate to improve the site. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
- Server and platform data. Like most websites, Blogger may log basic technical data such as your IP address, browser and the pages you request, to operate and secure the service.
This site uses Google services, including Google Analytics and Google AdSense. To learn how Google collects and uses data when you visit, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

- Google and other third parties may place and read cookies on your browser, or use web beacons, IP addresses or other identifiers, to collect information when ads are served on this site.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.

If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you see a cookie notice when you arrive. When ads run on this site, Google also shows a consent message. It lets you accept or refuse personalized ads. You can change your choice later from the privacy and cookie settings link on the site, or by clearing cookies in your browser.

How we use information
- To reply to messages you send us.
- To understand which guides are useful and improve the site.

We reply to messages because you asked us to (legitimate interests). We use analytics and personalized ads only where the law allows it, and with your consent where the law requires it.
We do not sell the information you send us, such as contact form messages. Ad cookies are explained above. We do not share the details you send through the contact form with anyone else. Google delivers the message to us by email as part of the Blogger service.
How long we keep information
We keep contact form emails only while we need them to answer you, and we review and delete old messages at least once a year. Google Analytics keeps event data for the retention period set in this site's Google Analytics account. Data held by Google is kept under Google's own retention policies. Google may process data outside the UK and the EEA, including in the United States, under its own safeguards.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to ask us to delete it. This includes rights under the UK GDPR, the EU GDPR and some US state privacy laws. To make a request, use the contact page. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk) in the UK, or to your local data protection authority.
