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.
Also, you should not upload images that don’t belong to you (which you did not create or pay for in some way). You may upload photos that contain your own watermark or other copyright information.
Contact forms
If you contact me by our Contact Form, it sends me an e-mail. It also creates a copy of the message you send me. This information is only kept for backup reasons, and will never be given to anyone else, unless it would be requested for legal reasons, from a court proceeding.
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.
In other words, if you watch a YouTube video without actually clicking the link on the embedded file, you are still watching YouTube. The video is not held here. If you watch without leaving this site, you are simply watching a reduced-size version that is streaming from YouTube…not from here. If you click on the YouTube button on the video, you will go directly to watching the video exactly the same as if you had gone there in the first place.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who we share your data with?
Your data will never be given to anyone else, unless it would be requested for legal reasons, from a court proceeding. We also use a spam detection service.
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 who register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information provided in the user profiles. All users can see, edit, or delete their own 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 may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Your contact information
Your contact information will not be given to anyone outside of the administration staff for this site, for any reason unless the person owning the contact information has given permission or there has been a request by authority of law. Also, a spam detection service is used on this site.
