1. Who is responsible
Perago Labs is the data controller for Kosharoad and every forum hosted on it. Forum owners and moderators help run their forums but don’t decide how Kosharoad processes your data. Reach us at hello@peragolabs.com. We aren’t required to appoint a Data Protection Officer, so requests come straight to our team.
2. Do it yourself, instantly
Most rights are built into your Account page. Sign in on the main Kosharoad site, open Account, and:
- Export: download your profile and every post you wrote, on every forum, as a JSON file.
- Correct: change your username and bio.
- Delete: delete your account. Sign-in connections, email, bio and sessions are removed at once.
- Control sign-in: connect or disconnect Google, GitHub and other providers, and sign out everywhere.
You can also edit or delete any of your posts directly in the forum.
3. Your rights in detail
| Right | What it means | How |
|---|---|---|
| Access | Get a copy of your personal data and how we use it | Export on the Account page, or email us for everything, including logs |
| Rectification | Fix data that’s wrong | Account page, or edit your posts |
| Erasure | Have your data deleted | Delete your account; email us to remove posts or other data too |
| Portability | Take your data elsewhere in a machine-readable format | Export gives you JSON |
| Restriction | Ask us to pause using your data while something is checked | Email us |
| Objection | Object to uses based on our legitimate interests | Email us; we’ll stop unless we have compelling grounds |

4. Making a request
Email hello@peragolabs.com from the address on your sign-in account if you can, and say which right you’re using. We may ask you to sign in or answer a question to confirm it’s really you, so nobody else can get your data.
- We reply within one month. For complex requests we may extend this by two more months, and we’ll tell you why.
- Requests are free, unless they’re clearly unfounded or excessive.
- If we can’t do what you ask, we’ll explain why.
5. Some limits
- Posts other members have quoted live on in their replies. We can remove your name from them on request, but not always rewrite others’ words.
- Backups can’t be edited one record at a time. Deleted data leaves them as they expire, within 12 months.
- We may keep what the law requires, or what we need to deal with abuse or legal claims, for as long as needed.
6. Complaints
Please talk to us first at hello@peragolabs.com. You also have the right to complain to a data protection authority, usually in the country where you live or work. In the UK that’s the Information Commissioner’s Office; in the EU, your national supervisory authority.
7. California residents
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, you can ask to know what personal information we collect, use and disclose, ask us to delete or correct it, and not be discriminated against for using these rights.
- We collect the categories described in our Privacy Policy: identifiers, your posts, and usage and log data.
- We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising.
- We don’t use or disclose sensitive personal information to infer anything about you.
Make a request at hello@peragolabs.com. An authorised agent may also make one for you, with your written permission.
