Who We Are
Our website address is https://touchblogs.com. TouchBlogs is an independent buying guide for smart-home security in Australia.
What Data We Collect
Comments: When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, plus the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. Google Analytics collects anonymised usage data, including pages visited and approximate location. You can opt out via Google’s opt-out tools or your browser settings.
Cookies: This site uses cookies for analytics and for affiliate link tracking. Affiliate networks may set cookies when you click an outbound product link, so the retailer can attribute any purchase to TouchBlogs. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.
How Long We Keep Data
Comments and their metadata are retained so we can recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically. Analytics data is retained in aggregated, anonymised form. We do not keep personal data longer than necessary for the purposes described here.
Children’s Privacy
This site is intended for adults researching home security products. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 16.
