How we protect your personal information
We use appropriate security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no website or online service is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.
Disclosure of personal information
We will not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties without your consent. We may disclose your personal information to our service providers who assist us in operating our website or conducting our business, as well as to comply with legal obligations, protect our rights, or prevent fraud.
How we use your personal information
We may use your personal information to send you newsletters, respond to your inquiries or comments, personalize your user experience, and to improve our website’s content and functionality. We may also use your personal information to track and analyze website usage and traffic patterns.
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.
Cookies
We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect information about your use of our website. Cookies are small data files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow us to improve your user experience, analyze website usage, and personalize our content and advertisements.
Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by the user before the expiry date; a session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.
You can disable cookies or set your browser to alert you when cookies are being sent, but doing so may affect your user experience.
We use cookies for the following purposes:
(a) advertising – we use cookies to help us to display advertisements that will be relevant to you.
(b) analysis – we use cookies to help us to analyse the use and performance of our website.
Cookies used by our service providers:
When you visit our website, our service providers may employ cookies, which may be stored on your computer.
To analyse how our website is being used, we use Google Analytics. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about website usage. The information obtained about our website is utilised to generate reports about its usage. Google’s privacy policies may be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
On our website, we display Google AdSense interest-based adverts. Google customises these based on your preferences. Google will use cookies to track your behaviour on our website and other websites around the web in order to establish your interests. You can view, delete, or add interest categories connected with your browser by visiting:https://adssettings.google.com. You can also opt out of the AdSense partner network cookie using those settings or using the Network Advertising Initiative’s multi-cookie opt-out mechanism at: http://optout.networkadvertising.org. However, these opt-out mechanisms themselves use cookies, and if you clear the cookies from your browser your opt-out will not be maintained. To ensure that an opt-out is maintained in respect of a particular browser, you may wish to consider using the Google browser plug-ins available at: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/7395996.
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 visit our login page, 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.
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 tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these websites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
Children’s Privacy
Our website is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under the age of 13, we will take steps to delete that information.
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.
