Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as 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 check if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at: 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). Visitors to the website can download and extract this location data from images on the website.
Cookies
- When you leave a comment on our site, you can choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in this data again for a subsequent comment. These cookies are stored for one year.
- If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be placed to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted as soon as you close your browser.
- When you log in, several cookies are placed to store your login information and screen preferences. Login cookies are stored for two days, and screen option cookies for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will remain active for two weeks. When you log out, the login cookies are deleted.
- If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be stored in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and only gives the ID of the article you just edited. This cookie expires after one day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may contain embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly the same as if the visitor has visited that 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 tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
With whom we share your data
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How long we keep your data
- When you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so that we can automatically recognize and approve any follow-up comments instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
- For users who register on our website (if applicable), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time (except that they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
- For customers who place an order, we store the data necessary to process the order correctly (such as name, address, contact details and order details). This data is retained for as long as necessary for administrative, tax or legal purposes.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request an export file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data that we are required to retain for administrative, legal or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Order data may be shared with our payment provider and shipping services, solely to be able to deliver your physical basket(s) correctly.
