How do we share your information with third parties?

We may share your information with third parties that provide services to us or on our behalf, such as payment processors, shipping providers, email service providers, analytics providers, advertising networks, and security providers. These third parties may access, process, or store your information in accordance with their own privacy policies and practices.

How do we protect your information?

We take reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, modification, or disclosure. We use secure socket layer (SSL) technology to encrypt your information when you transmit it to us or to our service providers. We also use firewalls, antivirus software, and other security tools to prevent unauthorized access to our systems. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your 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.

This site utilizes caching in order to facilitate a faster response time and better user experience. Caching potentially stores a duplicate copy of every web page that is on display on this site. All cache files are temporary, and are never accessed by any third party, except as necessary to obtain technical support from the cache plugin vendor. Cache files expire on a schedule set by the site administrator, but may easily be purged by the admin before their natural expiration, if necessary.

We may use QUIC.cloud services to process & cache your data temporarily.Please see https://quic.cloud/privacy-policy/ for more details.

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 your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
