What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

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

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact Forms

When you submit a form on our website, we collect the information provided (such as name, email, phone number, and message details) to respond to your inquiry or provide requested services. This data is securely stored and may be used for follow-up communication. We do not use contact form submissions for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

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

Analytics

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments and form submissions may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Additionally, data may be shared with third-party analytics providers, payment processors, and hosting services to enhance user experience and website performance.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell or rent your personal data. However, we may share it with trusted third parties to provide services such as payment processing, email marketing, website hosting, analytics, and customer support. These third parties are required to comply with strict confidentiality agreements and data protection laws.

Your Contact Information

If you provide your contact details (such as email, phone number, or mailing address), we use this information to respond to inquiries, fulfill orders, and send relevant updates. Your information is securely stored and is never sold or shared with unauthorized third parties.

Additional Information

We may collect additional data, such as technical logs and tracking cookies, to improve website functionality and security. This includes details about your device, browser type, IP address, and user preferences.

How We Protect Your Data

We implement industry-standard security measures, including SSL encryption, secure hosting, and access controls, to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. Regular security audits and monitoring are conducted to ensure compliance with privacy standards.

What Data Breach Procedures We Have in Place

In the event of a data breach, we have protocols in place to assess the impact, notify affected users promptly, and work with cybersecurity professionals to mitigate any risks. If required by law, we will inform regulatory authorities and impacted individuals.

What Third Parties We Receive Data From

We may receive data from third-party services, such as social media platforms, advertising networks, and analytics providers, to optimize our marketing strategies and website performance. Any data received is processed in accordance with our privacy standards.

What Automated Decision Making and/or Profiling We Do with User Data

We may use automated tools to analyze user behavior, personalize content, and enhance user experience. This includes targeted advertising, fraud prevention, and improving website functionality based on visitor interactions. However, we do not make any legally binding decisions solely based on automated processing.

Industry Regulatory Disclosure Requirements

We comply with all applicable data protection and privacy regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for EU users and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) for California residents. Users have the right to request access, corrections, or deletion of their personal data, as outlined in these regulations.
