Who We Are

We are a team of authors behind several pro-Ukrainian Viber channels, including “History of Ukraine”, “Interesting Facts”, and “That’s Kyiv”. Our mission is to promote Ukrainian-language content and tell the truth about Ukraine. Through this website, we also run historical marathons aimed at educating both Ukrainians and international audiences about our heritage.

What Personal Data We Collect

💬 Comments

When visitors leave comments, we collect:

  • The data shown in the comment form,

  • The visitor’s IP address,

  • Browser user agent string — to help detect spam.

🖼️ Media Files

If you upload images, avoid including embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as visitors can download and extract that information from the site.

🍪 Cookies

We use cookies to:

  • Store your name, email, and website when commenting (kept for 1 year),

  • Enable login sessions (stored up to 2 weeks),

  • Save screen display preferences (stored for 1 year),

  • Track usage analytics via third-party tools.

You can manage or disable cookies via your browser settings.

📎 Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). This behaves the same way as if the visitor had visited the other website. These third-party sites may:

  • Collect your data,

  • Embed additional tracking,

  • Monitor your interaction with the embedded content.

⛓️ Who We Share Your Data With

  • If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

⏳ How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments and their metadata are stored indefinitely to help with automated approval of future comments.

  • Registered users’ personal information is stored in their user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your data at any time (except your username). Site admins can also access and edit this data.

📥 Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account or have left comments, you may request:

  • An exported file of the personal data we hold about you,

  • The erasure of any personal data we store (excluding data required for administrative, legal, or security purposes).

🌍 Where Your Data Is Sent

All data is processed on servers located in countries that ensure adequate data protection standards (e.g., GDPR compliance). Visitor comments may be filtered through third-party anti-spam tools.
